There Is nothing more Inspiring in
these strenuous and selfish days than
real friendship and when wo observi
such we are bound to admire it. Tha
results of true friendship are far
reaching and often produce startling
effects. Bert DImmIck, who was en

in company with a number of friends,
missed tho train at Coquille. His
party learned his absence shortly

When They Are Shy.
Leap year is one of our pleasant fic

advantage of the occasion to go up to
defenseless men and ask them If, kind

time when the ladles nre shy it is dur

We can, most of us, recall tho
I childish years when we looked upon
the age of 30 as being tho end of all
t real living; romance, adventure,
I achievement must surely Ho behind
that tremendous accretion of years.
Wo can, many of us, recall the ab
surdly youthful and unfinished sen
sations with which wo passed tho
mark and found romance as alive as
over, adventures offering at every
turn; achievement any that should
count at all still hidden In the gray
folds of tho dim future, and life
giowlng distinctly more Interesting
and more enjoyable day by day. Tho
childish imagination can hardly bo
sti etched to allow for tho awakening
qf the Impersonal, intellectual curios
ity which is the mainstay of age, and
which does more than any one thing
ir human life, unless It bo an inborn
capacity for love and trust, to make
life an enjoyable affair. To bo able
to look out beyond our own part and
portion in life and watch tho rhyth
mic motion of life itself waving
among Us human puppets; to lovo
form and color and sound for their
own sakes; to find tho sincere record
ot other lives as instinct with Inter
est as our own; to see, to hear, to
smell, to perceive life wldoly is to
gain a broader swath than in child
hood wo could ever dream of.
"What is not done at 30," said a
famous jurist, overlooking a gather
ing of his youth kith and kin, "Is not
deno at all." There Is truth and un
truth in tho nssertlon. Genius In-

NEW IflffiR
Former Marshfield Young Man
is Selected as Head of the
New Bowman Store.
George Itotnor, who was born and
raised In Marshfield but who has
been absent from here for almost
twenty-five years, has been selected
as manager of tho new clothing and
gonts furnishing store which J. M.
Bowman of Portland, will start in
the new Coos building about May
1st. Mr. Rotnor has been In Port
land for several years and has been
manager of the Lyon Clothing storo
there.
Mr. Rotnor's father and mother
now reside in San Diego, having left
here a number of years ago. His
mother, Mrs. Stella R. Rotnor, will
be remembered by tho older residents
of Marshfield as having been a
teacher here for a number of years.
She was one of the first teachers
that Dr. J. T. McCormac selected for
tho old Marshfield Academy when he
started that school. The family lived
at what is now known as tho Mrs.
Duebner home.
Mr. Rotnor has written here to ar
range for quarters and has requested
that a suite of rooms In Mrs. Dueb
ner's home be secured as he would
like to occupy, for a while at least
after his return, his old home.
Mr. Rotnor's advancement to the
responsible position will be a source
of gratification for his numerous
friends among the older residents of
Coos Bay.

CLAIM BREAKWATER
MADE RECORD TRIP.
Steamer Said to Havo Made Fast Run
Between Columbia River and
Coos Bay.
It ic claimed by navigation men at
Portland that the Breakwater on her
last trip down from Portland to Coos
Bay made the fastest run ever made
between the Columbia river and this
port. Concerning the matter, the
Portland Oregonlan says:
"The steamship Breakwater ar-
i ived at Coos Bay last Friday after
one of, the fastest passages yet re
corded between the Columbia river
rnd Coos Bay. The Breakwater made
the run from Astoria dock to the
landing place in North Bend in 16
hours and 20 minutes. From bar to
bar tho log book showed 14 hours
and 5 minutes. Bad weather has
been prevailing and the performance
of tho Breakwater is considered a
record-breaker."

A Proper Query.
Forest Service Recommends that
Xuinber of Cattle and Sheep bo
Increased This Year.
WASHINGTON, March, 25. The
Forest Service has recommended
that the number of cattle and horses
allowed to grazo upon tho Bluo
Mountains qf tho National Forest In
the State of Oregon, during the sea
son 190S, be increased from 10,000
to 17,900 head and the number of
sheep from 150,000 to 152,500
heads. This forest has recently been
divided into three administrative
units, and tho increase in tho num
ber of head of stock to grazo on the

an equitable adjustment among the
former users of tho forest.
