gm A30R MORROW, f tho CJov
y1 ernment engineers' office at
"' Portland, It is announced,
will soon visit this part of the state.
Ho will Inspect the Jetty at the Sl
uslaw1 River, tho Government work
nt Hundon nnd will also visit Coos
Ray. Major Morrow has always
been a good friend of Coos Day and
It" is to him that wo owe much
that wo have received. It would be
no more than fitting to show the
Major some courtesies and appre
ciation nnd glvo him some kind of
nn entertainment. It can soon bo
ascertained Just when ho will be
hero and how long he will stay nnd
what over Is done enn bo arranged
accordingly. At the Sluslnw River
Major Morrow will sco splendid
results as tho result of the Jetty
construction which will bo contin
ued. Tho reports of captains cross
ing the bar nt that river show that
for nearly a year past there has
boon eighteen feet of wnter on the
bar at high tldo. This is an li
crcaso of seven feet slnco tho Jetty
construction was commenced. It Is
certainly a flno result nnd shows
what would bo accomplished at Cons
Bay with tho reconstruction of tho
Jetty.

The umbrellas Coos Hay men car
ry nro nil of the dollar variety,
but no man ever lost nn umhrolln
thnt wasn't a five-dollar ono.
Some Coos Day people go nround
acting as though the world owed
them n debt of gratitude for con
senting to live in It.
When n woman Is being married
for the fourth tlmo It must make
her grin when the preacher comes
to tho "love, honor nnd oboy" part.
A Coos Ray man will bellove that
there nro 810,954,121,082 stnrs, but
you can't convince him thnt other
women arc built Just like his wlfo.

"Pay

It doesn't matter whnt the price,
Nor where they put tho pads;
Somehow your clothes don't look
as nlco
As they did In tho ads.
RERUILDING I IAN DON
ONE year ago last Friday tho
city of Handon suffered a big
tiro which burned out n big
portion of tho business district nnd
caused n loss to property owners
aggregating $250,000. The smoko
of tho costly flro had hardly cleared
awny until n reconstruction begnn.
With Bomo tho flro wiped out till
thnt thoy had, but a spirit which
could not bo shattered and for
which Handon has always been tr.
mous, nrovulled and those who were
tho worst losers prepared to begin
in business over and to build up the
city again. Of tho cstubllshmcntH
destroyed by flro there nro only
two which nro not now engaged In
business. Others nro In largur ami
moro modern quarters, tho main
street of tho city where tho flro
occurrod has been paved, side walks
Imvo been laid nnd now buildings
nro changing tho appearance of tho
business district. It 1hh been n
hard year In which to mako Im
provement, but thu Handon people
woro not to bo discouraged and
cortnlnly to bo congratulntert on
whnt they have dono to overcome
tholr loss nnd to mako (ho city
bottor than It was hcfnro tho flro.

THE WISE GUY SAYS
Never hit a mnn when ho'a got you
down."
t
The older a mnn gets tho
less ho knows ho knows.
Tho Lord made woman and
then sho nindo herself over
Into n lndy.
'
Tho nvorago Coos Ray
man's conscience Is moro
elastic than his suspenders.
A Cooj Ray woman Is always
looking on tho bright side of things,
especially mirrors.
A Coos Ray wlfo Is always telllnp
how sho earns half tho Income
and her husband gets It nil.
Wo lmvo heard of tho blessings
of poverty, hut wo enn't recall hnv-
lug seen any of them.
No wonder u Coos Hay
woman seldom knows hor
'own mind; she changes It
4 so often.
As a rulo tho child obeys paronta
when parents nro mad. The 1ml-
niiro of tho tlmo the youngster Is
boss.
GOOD EYENING
Not only to Bay tho right
thing In tho right place, but
far moro difficult to leave
unsaid tho wrong thing nt
tho tempting moment. Sain
In n crisis tho country needs at
tho helm a man with a cool head
and hot feet. Many of us have
hot heads and cold feet.
(Jo little ten spot, go;
To pay an honest debt.
It's a long, long way to liquidation,
Rut you'll get there yet.
THE LlTTLi: STREET
I wont to tho llttlo street,
Tho llttlo street whore sho died,
And It scorned to mo as I turned
tho Square
That tho very pavomont slgliod,
And tho blinds stared, vacant
oyod, When I wont to tho llttlo street,
The llttlo street where sho died.
I
she
thought of tho days when
loaned
Out of tho casement there,
And ulwnys watched for mo
As I turned from tho unlet Square
And tho nights when 1 watched tor
tho flaro
Of hor lamp nt tho window pane
A beacon through tho rain.
Last night I wont to tho street,
Tho llttlo streot whoro sho died.
Hut I could not soo for my tears.
Tho houso of love denied.
Tho winds, llko spirits, slgliod
Then u star In lieavon flashed
Over tho streot whero alio dlod.

Editor Times:
I have been watching The Times
for some statement regarding the
North First streot question. As the
City Council meets Monday night,
June 14. to take action on the prop
osition, It seems to mo thnt the conn
cilmeu should be informed lest they
start something that will be a hard
ship to tho city of Marshfictd and
especially to the property owners on
North First street, or Pine Street
as most of the older residents still
call it.
This is a poor time to start costly
projects. .Money Is not too plentiful
nnd most of us have nil wo can do
to keep oven without attempting to
meet nny extraordinary expenses.
I do not object particularly to the
temporary planking of the street be
cause It Is something that will be of
lmmedlato sorvlco nnd will not be
prohibitive In cost. However tho
proposition that some aro making to
convert North First street Into a can-
nl Is out of tho question nnd I trust
that our Councllmon will have tho
good Judgment to stop It immediate
ly. Tho grading of North First street
now would prnctlcally mnko nil tho
property thoro worthless until tho
lots nro brought to grndo and the
cost of cutting down theso lots would
bo terrific. Not only is tho big cost
of grading tho streot nnd tho proper
ty to bo considered but It would
mean Hint nearly every property
owner thoro would hnvo to erect a
now building on his property to mnko
It revenuo producing. Tho buildings
there now nro nearly nil old houses,
structures that cannot bo moved or
lowered without practically destroy
ing them.
With vacant Istoro buildings on
Front streot, on Market Avenue nnd
on Contrnl Avenue, thero Is no de
mand for additional storerooms or
business rooms. To meet tho 1m
menso cost or grading North First
street and -the property itself, It
would bo necessary to convert It In
to business properly at good rentals;
It certainly would not pay to replaco
tho present houses with other resl
deuces. With tho prospect of four
teen or fifteen moro business places!
being emptied by tho closing or sn-;
loons, It cortnlnly Is not tho tlmo to '
expect thnt thero will bo n demand
for moro business locations. Conse
quently tho putting In of n lot of
store rooms on North First street!
would simply mean that thoy would I
either remain Idle or that storo '
rooms elsewhere would ho emptied I
I" fill them.
Not only nro theso things to bo
tnken Into consideration hut nlso tho '
fact that North First street Is n short
Htreet with a blind end on tho North.
To mnko It servo any considerable!
trnfrie, it would bo nccossnrv for m, '
city to buy an cxponslvo right or wny
on tho North through prlvnto prop
orty nnd to pnvo along vacant prop
oily In the dredgo fill j xrn,
MnrshriPhl.
1 do not hollovo thnt tho Cltv
Councllmcn want to bo n party to any
Proposition that will nlmoHt bank
nipt those affected nnd will further
Increase the city's Indebtedness. 0e
property owner, n widow, recently
st hor property ,i r. for ono at
least, do not wish to seo hor experi
ence duplicated.
