TWO KINDS OF GIRLS.
Recently the editor touched upon
a most timely subject, that of the
girl who works and the girl who
gads, says an exchange. Every com
munity has a type of each. The girl
who gads and loafs around the busi
ness places, not only loses her self
respect, but the respect of others.
The reason for her not having fitted
herself for any special work in life,
is not always due to her lack of inter
est is acquiring an education, but
perhaps to ignorant parents who
through lack of the proper kind of
Ietl
training and discipline, have
their girls grow up without any cor
rect Ideals of life and living. Some
parents presume to know more about
training of children than the Al
mighty, himself. Instead of "train
ing of their children in the way thy
should go," they turn them loose to
follow their own inclinations: ?s a
gentleman said about a mother who ,
had reared a bad set of children ' She
was never a mother to thoss chtl
dren, because she never made them
obey; she turned them loose for the
devil 'to raise, and be raised them,
bringing dishonor and disgrace to
the home."
Girls, get an education; be self
reliant. Fit yourselves for teachers,
stenographers, bookkeepers, or some
other honorable position. Don't
gad. Such conduct shows a lack of
good training In the home. Let ev
ery home be a kingaom and every
mother a queen who rules her chil
dren right royally, and bring them
np to be first-class men and women,
who are blessings to the home and
to the world.
GREATER COOS RAY.
Coos Bay presents a winsome
spectacle these days that even the
winter rains cannot make gray with
gloom. Under the soft haze of the
day when the sun that pepps in and
out from the clouds, the impression
Is of irrepressible progress. New
structures in every stage being hur
ried forward; streets transformed
everywhere; business being rushed
along all lines; everywhere men hur
rying all the slght3 and sounds that
are seen and heard when the lethar
gy of the village is cast off, and the
exultant onward, upward sweep of
the city begins. As the year draws
near its close .the tremendous work
that It has accomplished becomes
more and more apparent. It has
been a great year. Looking at the
city today and remembering what it
was only a year ago, the change 13
most striking. And it has only just
begun. The songs of progress are In
the air, and will not be stilled;
rather it 13 to swell into one deep
diapason to rins in the greater Coos
Bay that is to be.

of a Marshfield business man to a
business man in Ohio. It was writ-

MARSHFIELD. Or Rnt i -ns
w w Horton, E?q.,
Cincinnatti, Ohio.
Dear Sir: Your letter asking me
Jto give you the facts in regard to
much system, I am bound to say
that while I have had an opportunity
to observe, there has been a persis
tent and intell'gent effort made by i'
leading men, to place the city gov
ernment on a sound basis. This ef
fort has been remarkably successful.
System has been introduced into the
managements of the city finances
and into its general administration.
The call to Marshfield to leave the
village condition and get to "a busi
ness basis" was due to the. sudden
realization that it was entitled to the
growth which large resources and
a good commercial harbor justified.
The inhabitants showed full capacity
to meet the demands of the new
situation. They neither fost their
heads nor refused to progress, and
in the last year the whole appearance
of the city has changed. A new
high school, a five-story brick hotel,
many fine business buildings, three
of which are brick or cement, and a
large number of residences have
been built in that short time. Sever
al mills and factories employ in the
neighborhood of six hundred men.
The city has fully 5,000 people and
Is growing. The property owners,
under the guidance of a vigorous and
progressive city government, have
constituted and paid for a remark
able system of street improvements,
several of the business streets being
paved with asphalt and several with
planking. The city has electric
lights, a gas light system, a water
system, and all the modern improve
ments. Marshfield's assessed valuation for
1907 was $1,791,549. Its assess
ment for 190S will probably bo $2,
250,000. It has an Indebtedness of
$42,000. An indebtedness of $42,000
is very slight for such a city. You
will appreciate this still more when
I tell you that if the city should sell
its municipal assets and realize on
them today; this indebtedness would
be entirely paid. It would not be
desirable to do this', of course, but I
mention it to show that its finances
are absolutely sound. It Is in far
better shape than many business men
whose credit is above suspicion. This
is important if it should undertake
to fund its debt which is more out
standing in the form of warrants.
Apart from its tax levies the city
has: City Hall on waterfront with
lot worth $S,000; lot on waterfront
at Third street, worth $5,000; lot
on which future city hall Is planned
$3,500; city park, $10,000. About
four acres of public ground were
used as Potter's field, "close in,"
$5,000; new jail, $1,200; fire en
gines and apparatus, $7,000; street
roller, $3,600; total, $43,300. I
have no doubt the value of the real
estate assets will Increase far beyond
the amount of indebtedness before
the bonds are due. You will agree
with me that the city's finances are
unusually sound.
Let me also assure you that, while
men may disagree as to the proper
policy for the administration to pur
sue, all agree that It is both honest
In purpose, and patriotic In spirit. I
do not know of a city in the United
States' of the same slzo which Is en
titled to a better record and I have
no question that its people, its gov
ernment, Us finances and Its securi
ties will compare with those of any
city in Ohio or any state east of
there.
I shall be glad to give you any
Information I can and will answer
any inquiries you wish to make.
Yours respectfully,
FRANCIS H. CLARKE!
