I The pongee waist Is a necessity of

jgood as a dress waist.

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.
