BANDON, OREGON, THURSDAY, Volume XXIII. NEW 3-STORY BUILD TO BE i RECTED BY KNICHTS OF PYTHIAS Boa. d of Trustees Appointed and Work to Begin • Immediately. Still Landon continues to grow'. Despite, winds, rains and floods, and with all lhe financial flurues, still Bandon forges ahead. The latest ’ move in the way of building and improvement within the business district of the town is the decision and determination on the part of the local lodge of the Knights of Pythias to build a temple. The location is on a lot belonging to that lodge, on the south side of and adjacent to the Woolen Mill and fronting on Homer Street. From the reports we hear of the proposed structure, all other busi ness houses in Bandon will be out classed, for the new edifice will be a three story structure. It is the in tention of the lodge to fit up ex- cellewt lodge rooms upon the thin! floor, the first floor to be let for store room purposes, the second floor, as far as formulated now to be used for offices. The lodge, we are informed took definite steps looking toward such a building at its last regular meeting, and has appointed a Board of Trustees, who will also exercise the function of a general supervision committee, which committee is com posed of Fred Mehl, Bert Harring ton, and John N. Langlois. The work will be commenced just as soon as the weather will permit, and be rushed to completion, six months being required to do the work. Bandon is fortunate in having so strong and so enterprising an or ganization among the fraternities. A man who amassed quite a com fortable fortune in the practise of medicine Ixiught a farm in later life. After some years experience on the farm he made the following state ments, which are worthy the con sideration of many a boy who is cut out for a good farmer, but has aspirations for some profession for which he may have little more natural ability than a pig has for music. Hear his conclusions: “I would exchange my age, money and acres for youth and forty acres, and think that I had the best of the bargain; and I would start the farm by planting ten acres of orchard, buying two sows, two cows, and two setting hens. Youth, strength and hustle are a great sight better than money, and the wise youth can have a finer farm than mine before he passes the half century mark, even though he have but a bare forty to begin with.—Rural Spirit. Here’s Good Advice. Justice Court The Justice Court last week pre sented a busy scene, ss Judge Topping started in with* the determination of clearing up lhe docket which has been accumulating many cases during the holiday sea son, and accordingly held Court Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Some of the sessions ex tended from breakfast to midnight, according as the jury saw fit to determine. The cases of C. E, Langlois, Clarence Langlois anil John Lang lois against the Bandon Commercial Co., was decided in favor of the plaintiffs and notice of appeal given by the defendant. Wade ¡appeared for plaintiffs, Wheeler for defend ants. Other cases including the filing and argument of affadavits and motions, by the respective attorneys have taken up much of the Court’s time, which from now on bids fair to return to the old routine and the even tenor of its way. At the time of going to press the town marshal reports the incarcer ation of one of Erin’s sons in the town jug for imbibing too freely of American Christinas firewater, and thereafter creating a disturbance at the Pacific Hotel, The unfortunate has not yet had trial or preliminary hearing, but will be allowed the amplest time to sober up and reflect upon the ethics of celebrating Christmas in an unusual and un seemly manner. The town police court will then hear what conclusions he has made and, no doubt, apropos of the approaching new year, advise that he turn over a new leaf. Young Men and Women. Having gone through the early trials and hardships of getting an education in the pioneer ranch days of Coos County, I take this method of informing the ambitious and en ergetic young people throughout the county that we have here at North Bend one of the most thoroughly equipped and up-to-date business colleges (The Miller-Cleaver School) that it has been my pleasure to visit. Their teachers are from the Brehnke-Walker Business College, of Portland, where they hail charge of special work for years. ... Here you have the advantage o every attention a teacher am give. The classes are not so large as in older schools, therefore better re sults are obtained. The expense is not so great nor home so far away. If you are desirious of procuring a business education there is no time like the present and no better place on earth than North Bend. Allow me to encourage any and all whose inclinations run in that direction. I know the importance of it—the advantage to be gained by it. This letter ify, written to assist in the upbuilding of our county and for • the benefit of those who wish to better their condition and enlarge their salaries. In con lusion I beg you to come and investigate. The trip is short, it will do you good. Or, write to the Miller-Cleaver Business College. North Bend, Oregon. Yours for education. (Signed-) R. J.
