AN OPEN LETTER TO THE PUBLIC Saturday, August 29th, 1908, closes the last week's operation of the Coos Bay Steam Laun dry under the personal ownership of the writer, the property having been merged into a corpora tion of the same name, whose officers will, on the date named, assume control of the busienss. The officers are J. E. Lyons, Pres.; M. D. Lyons, Sec.-Treas.; J. C. Jones, General Manager, and J. Edgar Mauzey, foreman, all be ing interested in the business as stockholders of ihe corporation. Upon Mr. Jones and Mr. Mauzey will fall the active operation of the plant, and two better equipped men would be hard to find. Mr. Jones has been with us in the capacity of foreman for the past eighteen months, and prior to that was for eight years with the Walla Walla (Washington) Steam Laundry. He is a thorough, up-to-date laundryman, and will keep in front of the times in all that is new in the laun dry business. Mr. Mauzey is too well known to the most of you to require an introduction, as he was connected with the Coos Bay Steam Laundry for many years before it passed to its present ownership, and has been employed in almost every line of work in connection with thebusi ness, so it is sufficient to say that this is a well merited promotion to probably the best all around laundryman that Coos County has pro duced. Now a few words personal to myself. I am not a laundryman, but a lumberman, who got into the laundry business through the lime honored way of being "seen" by the man with the "experi ence," who had me in and the door locked before T hardly had time to realize what was taking place. The foregoing announcement is the result of almost two years' hard work, spent in estab lishing, equipping and organizing out of the wreck of sixteen thousand dollars, a real steam laundry, operated by real laundry people, as a real business proposition. A plant that is, and will continue to be a credit to the city and county, and one whose equipment will always be kept ahead of the growing demands of a growing com munity. For the measure of success already attained I thank all those who have assisted, and bespeak for the new management your continued patron age. Yours Very Truly, J. E. LYONS. W. O.
