the victim of the three youths
sentenced for her delinquency,
which might have led her to her
downfall, but we do know that
the boys received a small lesson
in propriety which should stand
them in food stead in the future.
A little parental advice at the

mentioned seem not to have re
ceived it when needed.

HALL NOT TO RUN
.Charles Hall of Marshfield has
decided that he will not make a
run for the gubernatorial job, as
was expected. In a statement
to the press last Thursday Mr.
Hall made the following state
ment: '
"Oregon is on the eve of in
fact is enjoying a great de
velopment, and Coos county and
the southwestern part of the
state is participating liberally in
that growth and prosperity.
"Iam the directing head of
several institutions in which the
savings of numerous men and
Vomen mostly of southwestern
Oregon are invested. My first
duty is to these investors.
"I have made strenuous efforts
to arrange my affairs so that I
could be free to serve the state
of Oregon for four years, if that
honor were won, but my business
interests will not permit. My
first duty is plain, and the in
crease and growth on Coos Bay
makes this duty paramount now.
"My public life will continue
as a state senator, and my obli
gations to my community, my
business associates and my state
will determine whether I will as
pire to greater honors in the fu
ture." While The Times respects Mr.
Hall's attitude, it can not help
but regret his decision. The
Times man knows Charley Hall,
knows his business ability; his
clean personality, and knowledge
of Oregon and its needs. That
he could have been nominated
and elected there is but little
doubt
As govenor Mr- Hall would
have no axe to grind; he would
be govenor in reality. Petty
politics would have no parking
place under his regime and the
state would have attained a high
er plane in the matter cf law en
forcement than it has enjoyed in
many years past.
The last paragraph of his
statement shows exactly the
high standard which Mr. Hall
maintains: "My obligation to
my community, my business asso
ciates and my state will deter
mine whether I will aspire to
greater honors in the future."
DON'T OVERLOOK THEM
Young Senator Lafollette is
after the scalp of the Ward Food
Products corporation, and is
asking a congressional investiga
tion of its workings. We won
der whether he would foster an
investigation of several Milwau
kee wards which voted for him.
Another suggestion and this
made applicable to small Maupin
boys: John D. Rockefeller did
no't get all his filling stations by
lying in bed until 9:00 o'clock in
the morning.
We suggest that the Maupin
young man who cannot afford to
give his best girla diamond take
a chance and send her a few
bushel of potatoes.
Improvements Completed
and Willis Brittain of Tygh Val
ley and .Ivan Olson of Shaniko
each entered a plea of guilty to
the crime of contributing to the
delinquency of a minor girl when
indictments were returned by
the grand jury yesterday and
today were sentenced by Circuit
Judge Fred W. Wilson. Judge
Wilson, upon written recom
mendation of the grand jury,
fined each of the trio $100 and
ordered each to contribute $150
to the support of the girl at one
of the Portland detention homes.
Because the grand jury fiad
carefully considered the testi
mony of the case, its recom
mendation was followed in the
sentence, it was declared.
Called On Mother
jno matter what newspaper
you pick up read the adds,
They are among the most interest
ing features in any paper and
the judicious buyer will find that
they point the way to real econo
my. Men of wisdom no longer
argue that advertising doesn'
pay. They realize that if it didn'
pay Henry Ford would not be
expending $6,000,000 a year to
advertise flivvers; Wrigley would
not be paying out 13,500,000
every year to advertise chewing
gum; Campbell would not be
spending $1,500,000 yearly to
sell soup, and so on down the
line, with at least fifty or a hun
dred other concerns spending a3
much a3 a million dollars each
for advertising every year. You
bet advertising pays, or there
wouldn't be so much of it done,
And the bejpt part of it is that it
pays those who buy the same as
it pays those who sell. So al
ways read the ads and always
remember that you can profit

Shattucks' store now presents
an appearance of beauty. With
the show windows taken in, new
