WORLD NEEDS SEEN
AS A STIMULUS TO
LUMBER
NDUSTRY
Great Demand Expected to Fol
tov Lifting of War Restric
" tions j Priced Rising.
. Marshfield. May : 80. Lumbermen of.
the Southern Oregon coast are encour
aged by prospects for the future of the
lumber buslnetss. There ia a shade of
. Jmprovement In prices and some manu-
facturers believe each month there will
he an improvement in both prices and
t demand. - Some venture the opinion tha
ina nmuer Business 01 ine cuaai is 10
see a great boom, the biggest that it
'ever had. Attention is called to the
Tact that building: in the Middle "West
: waa delayed during: the war. that when
peace is finally settled there will be a
big demand in Europe and that the ori-
: ent has been practically neglected dur-
ingr the war. i.
The big mill of the C. A. Smith com
pany in Marshfield is idle, but the
v smaller mill is operated and soon, will
put on "' a ' night force. There appears
to be good prospect that the larger mill
, will be operated again soon to meet the
growing demand. . ,
Three big mills and a box factory are
, operating at North Bend and the plants
. in the -Coquille valley section of Coos
county, as welt as at Reedsport on the
north, are all running.
There has been a marked improve
ment In the tie business, which ia no
small factor in this section. A new tie
mill is to be built in the South Inlet
section of Coon bay and several firms
- are now shipping out ties at good
prices. .The close of the war naturally
diii away with the big part of the ship
knee business and there is not much
call for poles, but it is thought that con
, atroctlen work by the telephone and
. telegraph companies will soon revive
that end of the Industry,
While! during the war the mills were
all engaged in manufacture of airplane
spruce or ship timbers, the change back
. to furnishing orders for the general
trade was not difficult. The war work
I only made it necessary to log a dlf
I r f erent class of timber without any spe
i " clal preparation.
North Bend mills have had two for
eign orders since the war closed, with
. others in prospect.

mittee of the city-council to prepare an

of President and Becomes
Heavy Stockholder.
Through negotiations closed Thursday
Robert B. Smith becomes a heavy stock
holder in the Title & Trust company
of Portland, and at a meeting of the
board of dlrfetcors heid in the afternoon,
Mr. Smith was elected president of the
company, taking the place of John F.

president of the Hibernia Savings bank.
The Title & Trust "company was or
ganized in 1908 by the consolidation of
the Title Guaranty ; & : Trust company
and the Security Abstract A Trust com
pany. The title books of the company
have been in continuous use for the past
40 years and the title plant Is probably
the most complete in the United States,
according to Mr; Smith. ,
At the time of its organization in
1908 the Title A Trust company was ex
clusively an abstract and title plant.
Since that time several new departments
have been added, among them a trust
department, escrow department, mort
gage and loan department and title
insurance department. The concern is
capitalised at 3300,000 fully paid, and
owns the building at 91 Fourth street.
Present officers of the company are :
Robert E. Smith, president ; Walter M.
Daly, vice president ; Earl C. Bronaugh,
vice president; Walter Mackay, vice
president ; Chester A. Fuller, secretary ;
William Orvine Daly, treasurer ; L: J.
Hprnaday, assistant secretary. Counsel.
Earl C. Bronaugh, Warren E. Thomas
and William O. McCarthy.

dent: J. C. Ainsworth, president United

resident Hibernia Savings bank ; Frank
lin T. Griffith, president Portland Rail
way, Light & Power company; Robert
S. Howard. Ladd & Tilton bank ; Earl
C. Bronaugh. attorney; Walter Mackay,
capitalist;
Both John F. Daly and Walter M.
Daly have been actively identified with
the company since its organisation. John
F. Daly was principal owner of the
Security ' Abstract & Title company at
the time of the consolidation. The ac
tive management of the company has
been in the hands of Walter M. Daly
since the resignation of John F. Daly
and he remains with the company as
its vice president, and. will be actively
identified with Its management. The
election of Mr. Smith Is the first change,
in the directorate since organization of
the company. ;
Robert E. Smith is president and
principal owner of the Douglas Abstract
& Trust company of Roseburg. He was
the founder of the First State & Savings
bank of that city, in which Institution
he is still largely interested. He was
Liberty loan executive manager for
Oregon In the third, fourth and Victory
loan drives, and was state director of
Liberty loan drives, and was state dN
rector of sales for treasury certificates.
He will assume the active management

mon In the lower Rogue river has not
been as good this month as usual. It
is expected that there will be an average

A Home Made
Face Cream
: A face or toilet cream to alter rough
ness of the4 skin, prevent and ; cure
chapped hands, and cracked lips, can
be easily made at home, at little cost.
It will Improve the complexion, re
move as well as prevent tan and sun
burn In summer, and soften the skin.
Men will find it excellent to apply to
the face after shaving.
To make it, merely get one ounce of
glycerine, and 25c worth of powdered
grexite at any drug store. Dissolve the
grexlte In the glycerine, add a pint of
water, and . pour Into bottles.
This makes more than a pint of thick,
antiseptic, greaseless cream or lotion
very healing and soothing, and perfectly
harmless. It is enough to last you for
months, and costs you only a few cents.
The same amount of cream purchased In
tubes or bottles would cost you several
dollars.- Adv.
