Address All Communications to COOS HAY DAIIA' TIMES Mnrslifleld Oregon JUST FOR THE LOOKS. Dallas, Texas, is the place, and aiext July is the time for tho assem bly of the next Grand Lodge of the .Benevolent and Protective Order of lElks. Jt may not appear at first Wusn that this bit of information in terests Coos Bay, but upon further gossip as to tho detail that follows, there is something in connection with ilils approaching Dallas event which wo would do well to think about and to emulate. This detail appears In tho Dallas News, and runs to the effect that a ommittee of Elks In tnat city has taken In hand a well organized cam paign, calculated to insure absolute municipal cleanliness by tho time the visitors arrive in July. The matter, .as wo infer from tho statements mado in the News, has been gone about in .an energetic and determinpd manner. Tho committee Is suillclontly large to .give supervision to the entire city by -division into small districts of, say one or two blocks. In each of these districts ono man is to assume tho work of urging neighbors and resid ents to tidy up in every way possible. It apparently is tho llrm belief of the Dallas people that this programme will bo successfully carried out, and fthat. In July, when Elks from all over Jtbo United States are tho guests of that municipality, Dallas will not only bo In its best bib and tucker as to the front room and tho parlor, but even the kitchen and tho woodshed will bo as spick, span clean as the jir.overblal whistle. Wo Jirn bound to havo cle!inlng day in tho spring, arrange to niako it extra view of tho efforts to boost tho buy? 'Why should not the municipal au thorities and all tho municipal nnd social organizations thai are directly or Indirectly In touch with municipal progress, combine in thoir effort to annuo tho city as beautiful and at tractive as possible? Why not take tho one step that will establish what will becomo a habit once It is given a luorough trial, the benefit of which wouni bo inestimable, tho cost of vhich would bo little? Tho Dallas plan Is tho simplest that could bo dovibcd and can be made to go tho farthest. Every club, and every organization, and every other body which would ovinco civic patri otism, can join in tho movement to demonstrate genulno regard for -MnrshlloUl. Ono general organization should result from all this a Marshfleld cleanup brigade, or something of that -and from this, tho city might t WITH THE t TOAST AND TEA t z WOMAN.

Tichenor, the Coos county booster In Spokane, is evidently hav ing a strenuous time with that new baby girl of his, according to the fol lowing from a Spokane paper: ' Did you notico that Neighbor Tichenor looks pretty gloomy these days? Some of the Choppers have suggested that Tichenor's mind wasn't juts right. Ho pretends it's i..o strenuous life bo's been living on tho road that causes that absent, woe-bogono bearing he has assumed recently, but the real truth lias leak ed out. The Poetaster of camp 99 was out for a stroll In the wee small hours recently.
