Volume XXV. EXCELLENT WORK BANDON, OREGON, THURSDAY, Number 18- MAY «3. 1909. ELECT OFFICERS MEMORIAL SERVICE DEATH OF AN OREGON DEVELOP FOR RAILROAD AT BANDON MENT LEAGUE WORK OLD PIONEER FOR EXPOSITION SCHOOL BÜILDING Advertising State in System Coos Bay-Roseburg and Boise May 31st to be Observed John Hamblock of Bullards Owing lo the 3oth Com Answers to Final atic Manner and Results Project Rapidly Round June 18th it ing on Sunday Summons Bandon School Has Magnif ing Into Shape Follow icent Display to Send to Seattle Fair ALL 6RA0ES DO EX6EEDINGLY WELL The work of the Bandon public school which will be exhibited at the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Expos ition was on display for the inspectioi of the public last Monday afternoon and throngs of people were coming and going all the time investigating the many excellent pieces. The expressions of word and ac tion of the visitors showed that they were wonderfully surprised and highly pleased with the work of the school, and well might they be, for it was something to be proud of. From the primary grade to the graduating class and all the grades between, the work was excellent and even marvelous. It is doubtful if any school in the United States will have work on exhibit that will surpass that of the Bandon school. The arrangement of the work is excellent, the papers are clean, the penmanship is fine and the drawings are suberb, in lact every part of it is to be highly commend ed, and too much cannot be said in praise of both teachers and pupils for the energy and consistency that are in evidence with, regard to the work done. Bandon school has an excellent corps of teachers, all of whom are working in harmony for the best interests of the school. This ex cellent work on the part of the teachers cannot help but inspire ac tion in the pupils, and as a con sequence the years work has been a success in every particular. Bandon parent! may well feel proud of the work their children have done for the exposition and this work will go a long way toward advertising the greatness of Bandon and may be ’the means of inducing many settlers to come this way, tor one of the first things people look for when they are figuring on the establishment of a home, is the kind of school advan tages they will have. "Leslie’s Weekly" publishes in its latest number a picture showing the contents of the storeroom on the Steamer "Hamburg," with sup plies used for the farewell banquet tendeied Roosevelt on his recent trip across the Atlantic. Foremost among the good things displayed are nqmerous boxes of Hood River apples, and fortunately for Hood River and .Oregon the boxes are so placed that the 'labels are easily read in the picture. Bascom B. Glarke, Editor of the "American Thresherman’’, the lead ing paper of its kind in • the United States; Lee Hardin, of Indianapolis, Indiana, representing one of the largest of the American manufac turers: and Morris O. Eldredge of the United States Department of Agriculture, unite in the statement that the Oregon Threshermen held the the most successful convention of its kind ever gathered together in this country, and that the enter tainment at Portland was superior to that ever given in any other city. These gentlemen were invited out to show Oregon how—they them selves were shown. All agree in giving chief credit for this success to Secretary Philip S. Bates of the Oregon Threshermen. Every commercial body in Ore gon that failed to have a represent ative present at the Oregon De velopment League's Conference in Eugene last week missed the most instructive meeting ever held in the state. It goes without saying that the people of Eugene gave their visiting friends a most hospitable and enthusiastic reception. At a meeting cf the Coos Bay- Roseburg and Boise Railroad Com mittee late Saturday afternoon, offi cers were elected so that the work could be taken up and pushed as rapidly as possible, The officers are as follows: President—Patrick Hennessy of Marshfield. Vice-president—Wm. Grimes of Marshfield. Secretary— 1. R. Smith of North Bend. Treasurer—J. North Bend. Directors—P. Hennessy and Wm. Grimes of Marshfield, J C. Gray and J. R. Smith of North Bend, and C. C. Carter of Myrtle Point. Other directors will be added later it being planned to give each Com mercial Club or city taking an active interest in the project representa tion on the board of directors. The joint committee of the Marsh field and North Bend Chambers ot Commerce which have had the matter in charge are perfecting the details of the project so that they will be able to announce the plans in full at a mass meeting of the citizeus of Coos Bay' to be held in a short tune. Until this is done, no attempt will be made to raise the remainder of the fund needed for the preliminary work. —Coos Bay Tim es.
