THE COST OF LIVING.
LOVE Is the cost of living. Pay it and
go your way.
Ixjvo Is the cost of the bloomy place of
rest at the end nf day.
Love Is the cost of living. Beggar and
thief and king
Pay It for life thut Is all of life, the true
and the only thing.
LOVE Is the cost of living. The green
girt hills are thine.
The low, sweet ale with tho bird and
bloom, the bough and the tangled
vine;
The murmur of many waters, the cool of
tho calm, erao wood,
The wldo domain of the simple field'),
with their noble and quiet good.
and only
love's servlco can buy
The day by day of the tender way that
leads to n starry sky;
That leads to the toil at morning and
homo to the sweet, sweet night,
"With dream and rest on n faithful breast
till the rose dawn blooms In light.
Unidentified.
T IS SWEBT to do nothing."
This is the sentiment that
pervaded Coos Day society tho
past week. While It has not been
entirely "do nothing," a few, but
very few events looming up like an
oasis in the desert, it has been quiet.
Small house parties at summer homes
or camping excursions have put Dame
Society almost utterly to rout.
The summer season has caused the
usual exodus fiom tho city. Mother
and the children (tho fortunate
ones) have gono with all the equip
ments for a good time. Father and
the boys go out at tho end of tho
week, coming back for work Sun
day night or Monday morning. The
cool placo by Ten Mile, the beach or
Coos River, where mother is, looms
tip before tho labors many times be
tween Monday and Saturday, and
father grumbles at tho restaurant or
pick-up meal. Tho boys, too, find
the hours long, and though it Is not
always mother's face that looks back
at them, yet It is to tho lako, river
side or beach that their thoughts
travel faster than tho speed of light.
Hut while these unbroken circles
gather for, at least, part of the sea
son's outing, thoro nre many whose
dear ones are too far away to Join
them In tho long walks, tho boating
and bathing, or tho fun around the
evening campflie. And to this, good
company, a little tenuis, boats
and bathing, and tho most ambitious
worker will acknowledge that there
Is a tlmo when "It is sweet to do no
thing." Hut this is drifting away from the
soulal i onl in and wore It not for the
danger of getting too far awny it
might not bo amiss that it is a won
der that golf has not boon taken up
as a fad on Coos Hay. Thero nre
ninny to whom fishing and hunting
holds forth no nlluromonts and while
sonio dllllculty might bo encountered
In laying out n course, thoro are suf
ficient hazards to make skill and
proficiency In driving worth while.
However, to go back to tho begin
ning, with ".Mother" and tho "girls"
away, who expects much In a soclnl
way? After all, who Is It that makes
society? It isn't tho occasional
bunches of good follows who gather
together horo or thoro now and thou.
It's tho gathorlngs In tho afternoon
or evening when tho deep volco
denoting malo persuasion is seldom
heard but whoro tho owner of same
Is an nttouttvo listener at tho tlmo be
ing or shortly aftorwards. What do
they all amount to excopt tho realiza
tion of tho discussion afterwards, the
expression of observances whoro even
tho thrill of tho present Impression Is
dliiungd by Jho expectancy of the fu:
&&
able season that marks almost overy
locality on the faco of civilization.
Society doesn't get a long rest, just
a brief respite after which She
reigns with even greater supremacy
than before. The little house pnrties
or vacation guests seo to it that she
is not lost sight of altogether despite
the declaration of "Mother" and the
"girls" that they nre getting away
from everything. Who will grudge
It to them? 'TIs but a moment until
it starts afresh with Dame Fashion
adding to the demands of Dame So
ciety for a season gayer and more
exacting than before.
Mrs. Henry Sengstacken enter
tained informally Thursday afternoon
In honor of her girlhood and college
"chum," MIbs Porter of Los Angeles,
who Is spending the summer with her
and her sister, Mrs. Pollexfen of San
Francisco, who is spending a few
weoks on the Bay. The home was

tistic effect. During the afternoon,
Mrs. J. W. Ingram contributed to the
pleasure with n few local selections.

pleasing gramophone pieces. Deli

citj from social doings for some time.

Accoullng to gossip, tho nuptials of
a well-known young Coos Bny man
and an Iowa young woman who has
boon at Ten Mile for tho past year,
will shortly bo announced. Tho first
murmurs came as a decided surprise
but friends hnve accopted It as true
oven though thero has been no direct
confirmation of it.
Mrs. P. nelchert left on tho Plant

Southern California.

Mrs. A. L. Houseworth and Mrs. L.
R. Robertson and children aro spend
ing a few weoks at Ten Mile.
Tho Baptist Sunday School excur
sion to Charleston Bay, yesterday,
proved to bo a most enjoyable event
to tho largo number present. Tho
picnickers arrived nt tholr destina
tion between 10 nnd 11 o'clock in
tho morning nnd although thero was
tjiilto n heavy fog at times, thoro was
a noticeable abbonco oftho north
west wind which Is so common at
this sousoif of" TlTo yonr. After all
the members of tho party had' par
taken of n sumptuous dinner In a
shady nook uloug tho shore of tho
Bay, a portion of the crowd jour
neyed through the sands across to
the lighthouse and Sunset Bay, and
upon their return reported having
had a very pleasant trip. The re
mainder of the crowd spent a few
hours strolling along the beach and
climbing over the huge rocks, unti'
about the middle of the afternoon
when they who were prepared for
the occasion, laid aside their heavier
wearing apparel and donned their
bathing suits for a couple hours
splash In tho Invigorating breakers
along the bay; then, after complet
ing these laborious enjoyments, re
turned to the lunch baskets which
were soon made to look slim by the
ravenous nppetltes which can only
be obtained by breathing the salty
atmosphere of the Pacific. After a
period of rest and pleasant conver
sation, all were splendidly entertain
ed for a time by some of the younger I
members of the party 'and especial
ly by recitation given by little Miss
Anna Downs. About 5 o'clock, they
began the journey homewaul where
they arrived an hour and a half
later. All expressed themselves
more than delighted with the pleas
ant trip.
