' 'WARSAW, Doc. 27. Something
over a million nnd n hnlf dollaiB
hnvo been cvponded by the Gcrnmns
slnco rthclr occupancy of Poland In
reconstructing tho unspeakably bad
toads that criss-cross tho kingdom at
more or less raro Intervals, and
which liavo boon nil but destroyed
ty artillery flro and by tho trans
location of big gulls, ammunition
nnd food supplies.
Tho Germans In charge of road
' rebuilding claim that they nover
had any word as to tho ultlmato In
tention1 of their government with res
pect to Poland, thnt tholr world has
gono'on Irrespective of any intention
to nnncx tho anclont kingdom, that
tho work has been dono puroly as ti
sort of philanthropic measure and
that'll will stand as n hcrltago for
thoso who may In tho future govern
Poland.
Work Ih Well Dono
'That It has been thoroughly dono,
'fcAwover, Is attested by tho fact that
botwccn 30,000 and 35,000 laborors
hnvo bcon employed in tho various
nectlohs of Poland. Most of those
mon aro Poles, thrown out of their
ordinary occupations by a shortage
of raw materials.
Tho Polish population In general
has -proven thankful for what has
bcon accomplished additionally so
becauso thousands of Its men and
wotacn hnvo rccolved employment in
tho reconstruction of tlio Polish
roadB, "nnd liavo In this way bcon
waved from Iho nlnrvatlon thnt oth
orwlso stared thorn In tho foco.
Women PJno Workers
It Is peculiar that tho women,
rather than the men, have dono tho
most idwnrcl rehabilitating tholr own
country. Tho women, nnd grown
children, hnvo proved themselves In
dustrious workers for tho re-cou-ttructlon
of Poland, whllo tho men
Avlth To'w exceptions havo had to bo
'driven, and havo never overcome
Uiolr1 riusiildlon of tho Gormans. This
suspicion, It la assumed, Is founded
on(,'gonorntlonH of oxporlcnco of Itus
fclnn domination. Tho mon, rather
than work, offor bribes to tho Ger
mans, ns thoy used to offer them to
tho -Russians, and then appear utter
ly dumbfound6d whon tho bribes nro.
not' nccoptcd nut! thoy nro confronted
with tho alternative of working or
starving.
MISFORTUNE FOLLOWS
FAMILY AT BAND0N
Ximv House for Superintendent Hlillt
mill Other liniirovcments Wcro
Pintle ut the l'lnco.
The Improvements at tho county
poor farm havo boon completed. The
superintendent's home Is nil eight
room, two-story house 30 by 32
with n full concrete basement. It
Is modern In every respect and built
for ' permanency. It cost approx
imately $3500. Flvo cottages, built
In a row, nro also ready for occu
pancy ono of four rooms; two of
two rooms and two of ono room.
All hnvo built-in porches unit aroJ

and 200 foot of sldowalk have nlfeb'
been completed. Othor ImnroYoV,

COO feet of water mains, 500 feet
of sewer, installing a ccptlc talitt

buildings nro painted whlto. each

Tho work was done by day labor
under tho supervision of Mr. Arm
strong nnd nccordlng to his figures,
cost approximately $5800.
Hoforo tho Improvement work on
tho County Farm was started bids
had been called for on tho main
residence and flvo cottages, says
Mr. Armstrong, and tho lowest was
$1300. This bid, ho says, wns for
cheaper construction throughout and
did not Include a bnsoiuont for tho
main residence, sewer, ccptlc tank,
vator mains, laundry, brldgo, side
walks or any of tho other Improve
ments made.
It was decided by tho County
Court to havo tho work dono by day
labor, and Mr. Armstrong says tho
Job is dono and open for Inspection,
and ho will leavo It to any falr
mlndod person to dccldo whether
tho county got ns much for Its money
as It would havo received under con
tract.

It's No Experiment
To Advertise in
the Coos Bay Times
The shrewd buyer of space the man who de
mands "action -on his money" all else being equal
is the man Who will make the cash register
ring the oftenest. '
The value' of-any medium from an advertising
viewpoint depends largely on its circulation and
the thoroughness with which it covers its field.
Poor copy in a good medium, however, won't
produce results neither will good copy in a poor
medium.
Spasmodic and half-hearted advertising is
more apt to be a failure than a success.
' The advertising department of The Coos Bay
Times is prepared to lay in front of any business
man in Marshfield a comprehensive statement of
facts and figures analyze his business-help
lay out a definite campaign render a distinct
co-operative service and if the merchant will do
his part guarantee an unqualified success.
Marshfield, Coos County and North Bend can
be covered thoroughly in The Coos Bay Times.
These statements can be sustantiated with an
abundance of proof.
