A IltuiKcn to ell confetti In viola
tion of the order of County Health
Officer Culln, City Health orflcor
Straw and tho Fouith of July com
mittee, who. In addition to objecting-!
to It on general Haultary grounds,
felt that It would especially be a
meunco to the public at this time
lowing to the prevelauce or in can
Ion, whooping cough, mumps and
i other more H'rIoun contagious dls
,oanftc In localities In this vicinity.
Finally, In order to avoid what
might have been a serious ruction,
i members or tho Klk.M, Moose and
Hnglos lodges, Including local phyH-
Iclaus and business men, got togeth
er mid wont. In a body to Ogren
I at tlio Norton & Hansen Store and
i Insisted that ho desist. Finally
thoy purchased his whole supply,
paying him fifty per cent more than
It cost lit tn at wholesale and ordered
It thrown Into the bay.
I Somo of those who had been vlg
loroislv opposing tlio throwing or
I confetti had advocated more sit on
mioiis stops t.- prevent It, but finally
this menus at buying Ogren nfr was
i adopted as tbn oslest meaiiB of
.handling the situation .fid provont-
lug trouble marring tho celebration.
Dr. Straw, as City Health Otf.-
cer, was prepared to take uioie
'stringent slops to prevent It, but
In order to do ho he would have
boon compelled to arrest and pros
ecute nil throwing It ns woll as
those kolllug It. Ah thoro throw
ing it would probably hnvo boon
mostly strangers who woro bore ns
iKiiestH of tlio city ror a good time,
thiH-p In charge or tho celebration
felt that It would be unfair to hnvo
them punished for a thing which
they had no Ituowledgu or being
an orreusc.
I The closing or tho mntlor was
rather animated and attracted a
large crowd. Dr. Ilousovvorth,
MesHrB. Conway, McArthtir "' "
number or others closed up the nint-
! tor. ProvloiiBly there had beon nn
animated discussion, accoidtug to
reports botwooit Ogron, Dr. Strnw,
Win. Asplund and othora.
Ilcsldcs tho 'local parties Interest
ed, others took steps to stop It. Foy
Cox, or Camp One, ono of tho host
known loggors In this section, united
with Dr. Straw nnd tho Fourth of
July commltteo and most or tho
loggora with whom ho took It up put
tho ban on confetti.
Thoro wob only one fire alarm dur
ing tho celebration nnd that was
about 7:30 Saturday evening. Tho
gong waa soundod for the chemical
but no general alarm was turned In.
It occurred In tho auto used In ono

afternoon. Tho llttlo girl was knock
down by tho mud guard and slightly
bruised. MIsh Powers was driving
slowly and by prompt use of tho
emergency brake prevented running
ovor tno cium. Mr. Stambono had
started across tho street nnd tho llt

not place tho slightest blame on Miss

IT HAS neon well anil iruiy nam mm me omj- way u ureal civic even i
can be cared for Is by men who have In them theclemonts of civic pride
and patriotism and who aro ready to lavishly give of their time without
compensation In n quality of some? that money couldn't pay for.
There Ib growing up on Coos Hay a sentiment or this son that is hound
to mean big things to tho community. When a public matter neods
attention, there are iiualiried mon and .women In tho community to
give effective service without coat. And those men can call for helpers
who willingly do their share to bring the matter to a auccossful issue
When a man Is called, ho Blinply doi'j tho work and thnt Is all there Is
about It. Marshfleld Is exceedingly fortunate In theso mon, nnd tho
movement Is spreading bo that it embraces nearly everyone In tho city.
Thoro tiro many who deservo much uodlt for the work done to make
the Fourth of July colouration a supremo buccobs. Tho general commit
tee proved to bo an tiblo and intelligent combination that produced re
sults. At the head or them was Harry KInlball, who added to a tireless en
orgy a grasp or details that made him conspicuously the right man in
tho right placo. Associated with hi n nnd each responsible for somo
feature of tho work woro F. O. Horton, .1. Albeit Matson, Goorgo Oood
rum, Frank D. Cohan, Isaac It. Towor, F. A. Tlodgon, Dr. Leslie nnd Dr.
K. K. Straw. Theso mon simply worked like Trojans to make the cele
bration a hiiccosb nnd havo well earned tho thanks of all tho people of
MarBhriuld
Thoro was only ono untoward Incldont of tho entlro cololirntlon nnd
(hat happily pasrod orf without ninth difficulty. The porelstent penur
louaness of Warner Ogren, of Norton & Hansen's Store, who Insisted on
selling confetti against tho lnstructl"iis nnd wishes of County Health Of
ficer Culln and City Health Ofricer Dr. Straw nearly precipitated trou
ble, but thanks to the firmness or Dr. Straw nnd tho patriotism and
unseirish loyalty of a number or tho fr.Uernnl gmletlci, the confetti
throwing was suppressed. This ne ompllshmont was a rosult or a coni
mlttbw ot IClks agreeing to purchase all the ronrettl held by Norton A
Hansen at fifty per cent advanto ovor what It cost them. Tho Moose
nnd Kaulo lodges also loyally offered to share (ho expente If ueoded
and support Dr. Straw In his efforts to protect the health of tho people
of the commuiilty.
Warner Ogren, manager of Norton & Hnnson's, stuck out for his
pound of flesh and was successful In adding a few dirty dollars to his
profits, but by his action he lost tho respect of thu decent, loyal and
law-abiding peoplo of tho city. Ogron's attempt to force confetti throw
ing nnd h's utter disregard of tho heilth and happiuoss, convoiiieucu
and comfort of tho people or the city line earned Tor him the contempt
ot every mnn who holds loyalty to h's home city above a row dirty
dollars that might be made In iiuostlonnble practices. It Is barely pos
sible that tho loss or the trade of such men will amount to as much In
u year ..s the fow dollars profit mnde by his confetti deal.
