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

Coldest day and thinnest gown

And life a game that oft annoys
That's tho woman of it.
Childhood sung In circling arms
That's tho woman of it;
Love that bucklers 'gainst all harms
