TO
ARRIVES
1 III' meeting of tho vnrlous committees of
tho Chamber of Commerce Thursday af
ternoon Is ample evidence that tho city
bontilirul campaign Is to ho pushed to a mic
coaKful Ishiio. With biicIi ti spirit or onthuslast'e
to-oprratlon Mid civic pride, Marshrield may bu
made what sho h destined to bo, ono or tho
most beautiful cltlus on the Pacific Coast.
The plan outlined by Frank G. Hoi ton and
J. Albert Mathon will result In a most thorough
and systematic cleaning up and that Is tho first
esfieiitlal move In making a city beautiful. Ku
listing all of tho women's clulu is also another
imiHlor stroko for tho lords of creation must all
admit that when It comes to putting 11 house In
order and that's Just the task that confronts
Mnrshfiold today ono woman Is worth a doeu
men. With the aystcumtle organlatlou and
tho division of the city Into districts wonders
may lie accomplished In a Blugle day. Another
Itupurtnut factor In this committee mooting
was tho toudeney to eryntall.o tho civic spirit
end brlii- foitu moro united action toward tho
common goal or a city beautiful.
Cities grow whore fate builds thorn, but in
tho upbuilding process natural condition. nlouo
do not govern. Tho situation is vitally uffoctcd
by tho energy, spirit and vision or tho pooplu
particularly or those who hold tho leadership.
A town with tlio most favored location will not
necciffurlly bo tho metropolis of Us territory.
It may lose Ita pinto through lethargy or
through lack of vigorous loaders at critical
times.
Coos Hay has a Bplcnd'd location. Tho cities
upon Its shores that will bo ono day merged
into a single metropolis, have n most beautiful
(HAltf rvM
natural sotting. This Is well known, yet fow
renllxo th ) full value, not only of our stratoglu
pos'lion, but Its beauty, ns well. In thoHo ro
bpectb Coos Bay Is the most fortunately located
Linnll community on tho Pacific Coast today.
It is d .'stliied by nature to take tho head In
beauty in well as business, and In theso twen
tieth century ilayti beauty Is an annul that can
not bo Ignored.
Tin coming of tho now railway marks an
epoch. Coos Bay must assert Its supromacy
at tho commencement of this now era suprem
acy not alone an n place of biulucss but as n
city of homes.
Gonoial PuBacnger Agent Scott, of tho South
ern Pacific on his recent visit horo assorted that
the Coos Bey and C01111III0 Valley section will
bo ono or the greatest summer resort places or
the Pacific. Nature ha.i done this much ror us.
It Is now up to tho people to do their share.
Tho only thing that can stop us Is the scuttling
of tho clty'B progress through Indlfforcuco and
Inertia or tho adoption or narrow, conlractqtl .
community policies.'
The most important matter confronting tho
elty today is that it should bo made liitbltnlilo
and hospitable. Ita people aro hospltablo, but
not always Is It given tho united expression
which lends It force. Tho puoplo or Marshrield
love a lioautlful environment else they would
not havo choson It in Its loslntion as tho place
to make their homes. In this rojpcct also the
only thing lacking is expression. With an
aroused public spirit and an uwakomtd uuuso
or clVlc duty both cuds will bo achieved.
April r, will mark tho Inauguration or a new
era on Coos Bay tho era or the City Beautirul.
