Box Factory Resumes Work The North Bend Box Factcry which has been idle for some time with the exception ot a few weeks early in the spring when it was doing some special finishing work will start tomorrow and tun at full capacity for an indefinite time Such was the announcement made today on the arrival of C A Nei- haus from San Francisco. Mr. Neihaus this morning stated that the factory would begin work in the morning if a crew could be secured. He wants about sixty men. At noon he had not been able to secure the full crew, but it is believed that he will be able to get sufficient to begin work and to fill the force within the next few days. The reopening of the box factory is but another sign of the return ot prosperity to the Bav cities. Most of the mills are now running nearly full time. If the 0 A.

You may have had your faults, dear Georpe. We don’t know what they are They didn't show at Valley Forge When feeble was your star.

When you had anything to say Or any scheme to push You did not shoot a mile away Or beat about the bush. Oh. no; you blurted out the truth, And if It meant a fight You loafed around and licked the man To prove that you were right! Oh, George, I fear we do not raise Your kind of men today.
