Address All Communications to COOS BAY DAILY TIMES Uarjfcfield' - Oregon - J r ii-i- l' yi ssasafe IiIDIlAItlES AXI HAPPINESS Tho great purpose of a public li brary is to promote and unite Intelli gence. It brings together the pro ducts of the wise minds of the world. It holds within its wall3 a collection of all the wise and witty things ever bald. These It marks and indexes and offers to Its friends. It Is in its community a sort of intellectual mlnutoman, always ready to supply to every comer some thing of interest and pleasure. It puts good booUs, and uo o'lier into tho hands of the children. It tells you about Cinderella and informs you on riots in Moscow. It offers you a novel on modern Japan, and a history of Venice of the past. It knows about tho milk in the cocoa nut, tho floods of the river Nile, the advantages of education, tho evils of "legislation, how to plan a home, why bread won't rise, and can tell more about the hugeness of our task at Panama, and tho mantil failings that give Jamaica and V'jue.u"ia trouble than .most of our congress men ever dreamed of. I am a great believer, as you see, in reading, and I think with good reason. It is better worth our while, If, while we live, wo live much, learn, see, understand, enjoy many things. Reading is tho short cut into tho heart of life. If you are talking with a group of friends about, for example, dif ferent parts of the United States, and Bomeone happens to mention a city or town In which you have lived, note how your interest quickens, and how eager you aro to hear news of tho place or to tell your experience in it. This Is a simple everyday fact. Tho same thing you have ob served a thousand times about any subject or talk with which you may bo familiar. Wo learn about manv things just by keeping alive aud moving around. Thoso things wo have lenrned about wo can't help being Interested in. That Is tho wav wo aro made. If wo knew moro about things our interests would be greater In number, keener, more sat isfying; wo would talk more, ask moro questions, bo moro alert, get more pleasure. Tho lesson from this Is plain .enough: If you wish to have a good time, learn something. You llko to meet old friends. Your .brain, also, likes to como across things it knows nlready, and to re new acquaintance with tho knowledge- it 1ms stored away and half forgotten. Tho pleasuro of i-ccog nition and association; tho delights of lonowlng your friendship with your own ideas aro many, easy to get, never falling. Rut If you wish to have Interests and delights In good plenty, you must know of many things. So, 1 say, if you wish to bo happy, learn something. This sounds llko advice to a stu dent. It is not; it is a suggestion to tho wayfarer, For this learning process may bo us delightful as It Is to gather (lowers by tho roadsldo In n Biunmor walk. .1. C. Dana.

He is fond of his i own fire side, though it must bo confessed that ho has his quota of matrimonial troubles. His present companion in conjugality represents his fourth plunge into tho treacherous sea of matrimony.

For some days Mrs. Hen has "That, that's tho little red rooster been setting on twelve little eggs of tho Java Coffee House."

His curosity was aroused. seif iong enough from the dignity of fie had heard of Arkansas razo' backs J his position to answer by a fatherly Notice to Fruit Growers of Coos County. You aro hereby Informed that I have rocolved tho appointment as fruit inspector of Coos county.

Fruit Iimpeotor for Coos Co., Or. and Texas cattle A municipal roost or was something fresh and novel "Town mascot, maybe," ho ventured. "Nnw," the question had startled the old timer out of a mental calcu lation of the possible number of feet in a raft of logs In tow for tho Simpson mill and his attitude was decisive; "if you want to find out about that rooster ask Hank Wells." Whether tho new arrival found Hank Wells or not Is a matter of conjecture. If ho stayed any con siderable time on Coos Bay, however, it Is certain that he became acquaint ed with tho Httlo red rooster of tho Java Coffeo House champion cock of all male chlckendom on Coos Bay and petted tyrant of tho Marshfleld water front. Don't you remember, you folks who havo traveled around, to over havo run across somo queer genus of tho animal kingdom which has been domesticated Into a pet? Did you over notico how surprisingly intelligent it is whether snake, turtle, fox, wolf or bird, how it seems, that, by some miraculous pro cess of subtraction and addition, all tho lower animal traits, common to Its forbears, havo been eliminated and replaced by an Intelligence al most human in its keenness. Of courso Hank's rooster has tho ad vantngo of being a descendant of a long lino of domestic fowls. This long and intimate companionship gives tho Httlo red rooster an add ed degreo of brain matter over his loss fortunato domesticated brothers of tho jungle Tho rooster's kindred ness to human nature is manifest In many ways, tho strongest resemb lance being his romnrkablo pugna clousuoss. Ho likes to fight. In fact ho has such an abnormal fighting ap petlto that one wonders if tho spirit of somo dead "pug" has not been re incarnated In his body. In tho two years of his reign on tho water front ECEK ! crow, the mothevly cluck of Mrs. Hen. But these occasions aro rare. Hour after hour witnesses his faithful vigil oyer tho little mother hen and the twelve small eggs that will shortly bo bursted by tiny fluffy chicklets. And then there will bo much strut ting, mingled with joyful crowing on tho part of the Httlo red rooster, while tho little mother hen will cluck nround in solicitous anxiety as she pilots tho chicks out for their first walk. Hank has promised a few of the select of his acquaintenco that they may witness this occasion and conse quently thero Is much eager antici pation in Marshflold these days.
