WHY NOT COOS DAY?
THE NATIONAL SECURITY
LEAGUE, of New York, an or
ganization which has for its
purpose tho promotion of fortifica
tions In this country, is furthering
tho Idea of fortifying tho mouth of
the Sluslaw river, according to re
cunt reports. This paper does not
approve of warllko measures or tho
tho advancement of militarism In
this country, but If It Is necessary
to fortify any points on tho South
ern Oregon Coast why should not
Coos Day bo tho place fortified?
Just why the Sluslaw River should
bo chosen Is not given but it is a
fact that Coos Hay Is much tho
largest of any of tho other Oregon
ports south of tho Columbia Klver
and therefore tho one most easy
of entrance. Resides, this port af
fords tho only coal on tho scacoast
south of Puget Sound nnd natur
ally, on account of tho coal, would
bo the ono picked out for enpture
by an enemy. Thcreforo It would
seem that If fortification Is neces
sary, that Coos Uay would logically
be tho placo chose, becauso of Its
being tho largest harbor, because
of tho coal nnd because of tho fact
that thcro Is n military rcservo own
ed by tho flovcrnmunt at Coos Head.
MONDAY IS PLAG DAY.
NEXT Monday Is Flag Day In this
country, nnd It eolebrutes thu
138th nnnlvorsny of the adoot
Ion of tho Stars and Stripes as the
National Emblem. Tho observation
of the day each year Is becoming
more and more general. In tho
past the Governors of many of tho
stutcs In their proclamations huvo
ordorcd tho flag to bo displayed an
nil public buildings and Invited
citizens to celebrate tho day. Tho
Muyors of many of the cities have
followed the same prnctlcu. Each
year the pcoplo hnvo shown added
enthusiasm In their observation of
tho day. Tills year tho Amerl.TUi
Flag Association has boon sending
out reminders of the day and ap
peals to tho citizens to fitly obsorvo
the day and suggests Hint where
schools nro In session, the stuueutu
hold appropriate exorcises nnd carry
out the salute to the flag.

Life Time on Coos Day
Mrs. Amelia Russell, of Cooston,
aged 40 years, passed nway at five
o'clock yesterday afternoon after n
heroic struggle of months against
tubercolosls. She Is tho wife of Mar
tin Russell nnd leaves eight children
to mourn her loss. The funeral will
Ijo itcid .Mo n any afternoon nt one
o'clock In tho Wilson Chapel with
Rev. Stubblcficld officiating.
It Is but n few weeks ago that
Mrs. Russell returned homo after n
trip of threo or four months in Ari
zona which seemed to do her little
good.
Tho deceased lenves besides her
husband eight children who are Mar
tha, Ronald, Martin, Roy, Mublc, Lil
lian, Arclilo nnd Arthur, the young
est being two and ono half years of
age.
Mrs. Russell was a daughter of

j QUESTION POR THE DAY.
What has become of the old
fashioned girl who thought it was
a great honor to liavo tho smallest
waist In town?
A man Is m old nB ho feels when
ho wnkes up In tho morning. A
womnn Is as old as sno looks when
sho wakes up In tho morning.
For n little whllo she lingers at
tho front window nnd watches for
lior husband becauso sho loves him
so. Hut later on sho lingers at the
front window nnd watches for lior
husband becauso sho is afraid ho
Is flirting with some of tho women
in tho neighborhood.
Tho renson why ovorybody talks
at onco nt n gathering of women Is
becauso that Is tho only way to got
a word In edgewise.
There was a tlmo when the girls
wero so bashful that they waited for
u nmn to propose to them. Hut now
udnys a man has a choice between,
bolng led up to tho nltnr and filing
n protest nnd bucking up against a
breach of promise suit.

principal creditors. Several offors
have been received for It and It
will either be Htnrtcd up nt Hnndon

I QUESTION POH THE DAY I
Does your conscience ever re
quire mi alarm clock to awaken it?
A Coos liny man doesn't necessar
ily believe all you say Just because
lie doesn't cnll you a liar.
The average Coos Uay man Is too
modest to sny ho Is better than
