who have digested the highway situ ation regarding the expected improve ment in this county, in coniMCtioa with the Coes-Douglas county road, or relating to the Roosevelt highway, as quoted in the Marshfield Daily News. GLADYS WALTON te “ AH D olled U p” A Universal Picture Glad Rags and Com •dy intermingled, and Two m l Century Comedy v In the first place, Mr. Kern believes the county has been handicapped by the tentative agreement made with the state highway commission be fore the county court came into the negotiations. He is o f the opinion that to obtain the credits due Coos county for expenditures made in the past will not be an easy matter, for on his estimate, the coAnty will be entitled to nearly $400,000 credit for various highway improvements made since the former bond issue. On the practically established bas ic of 50-50 construction, as agreed to for Coos county by Charles Hall, Mr. Kern is none too confident we ■hall profit very much, for the rea eon, that he is doubltful of receiving the just credit the county is entitled to. He referred in bis talk to the old understanding when the first bond is sue was mam, to the effect that the commission then state highway agreed to match the expenditures. He says the commisiaon is, of course, obligated by that agreement, but whether it will stand by it, is what ia worrying him. Among the expen ditures that would deserve credit from the state highway commission would be the county highway bridge for which bids were opened Tuesday at Coquille, amounting on estimates to $75,000. This is a portion o f the high way system on thè map; an expendi ture o f $50,000 on the county read be low Bandon;-other expenditures south o f Coquille toward and beyond Myrtle Point, and the work done on the Glas gow to Hauser highway, all o f whieh, save that for the bridge, being large ly from money accruing from the bond Admission: Reserved Scots Wedmesday, March 23 H ARRY CAREY Human Stuff A thrilling, chuckling picture o f a Lonely Man and a Mail-order Wife Marie Waleamp in “ The Dragon’s Jiet!

Nearly all farm crops are back to pre-war prices and many of them art 60 per cent leas than the maximum reached during and following the srar.— Oregon League Dairyman. Mr. Kern, in referring to the Roosevelt highway said that so far as he was able to learn at Portland when the cenfesance was held last week, there is actually no expectation that any money will be expended on the project within two years, and at the end of that time, he declares, the $2,500.000 voted will revert to the general state road fund. Commis sioner, Kern is not expecting to hear anything definite from the state high way commission for some time, he said, bu t he set no date. Referring to “ the old understanding when the first bond issue was made,” we are quite sure that it was not a 50-50 proposition as stated but that we heard Mr. Adams, one o f the first commissioners under the new law, at n meeting in Marshfield promise that the commission would carry out the pledge before made to Coos county by a former body— that the state would build the Roseburg road. But there have been so many changes in the commission since Mr. Adams’ day and so long a time has elapsed without the fulfillment o f the pledge that it may not be considered binding now.

The mayor then asked that proper ty owners o f that district tell what they desired in the way o f an im provement. Several responded and from the tenor o f their remarks it ap peared that most all the residents o f that section were desirous o f doing something to keep out of the mud next winter. Two petitions covering different streets out there, have been filed with the council, but inasmuch to grant them would necessitate the letting o f :wo separate contracts and doubling up o f tome o f the expenses, the coun cil decided to initiate a campaign o f its own and instructed the city en gineer to prepare plana, specification« and estimates o f coat for a suitable improvement on the following streets; From the Fairview county road around the Butler corner north to the city limits.
