• * fag * TUB COQUILLE VALLKY SENTINEL, COQUILLE. OMQON. FRIDAY, APRIL 13, 1M4. — j ! —— i ■ The Coquille Mill Co. Today, finds the lumber industry of Oregon giving employment to the largest group of peo ple dependent upon payrolls to keep a step ahead of the landlord or maybe the corner grocery man. Our large mill here is now employing ap proximately fifty people and is operating under the new N. R. A. code on wages and hours and also for the marketing of its product. This mill is one of the oldest established concerns of Co quille if not the oldest. The original mill was built almost fifty years ago by the father of Ham Bunch. The Coquille Mill was operated for many years by James Lyons. The present company KNOW YOUR HOME TOWN FOLKS is headed by Mr. Johnson and is actively enter ing the local retail field as well as caring for the regular export trade. Lumber from this mill is shipped to Australia, Argentine, Peru, China and Japan through the port at Marshfield. The local retail department is under the management of Howard Pike, who js one of the older employees of the mill. Local business is actively solicited and this field is absorbing a considerable amount of the mill’s production. The logs are supplied by McCarthy Bros., drar ■B—g—gBBngBBgStgBge---------------------------------- S from their own timber holdings at McKinley and Fairview on the North Fork of the Coquille. There are over fifty men employed in this work by McCarthy Bros., which brings the combined payroll of the mill and logging operations up to one hundred men. The Coquille Mill Company has always been one of the largest institutions of this city and particularly today the retail merchants appre ciate this steady payroll which might be termed one of the cornerstones of Coquille business. The lumber industry is a good example of a national industry operating under blanket codes. Every department, logging, retailing, wholesaling, hours of operation and the scale of wages come under a code. Each mill or lumber yard in the country is supplied with a looseleaf book which contains this data. This book is constantly used as a reference to find retail or wholesale selling pieces. Sometimes it seems a nuisance, but when you stop to think of the docens of mills over the country who are run ning today but would be stopped by some invis ible hand if we didn’t have the codes, you can realize the value. 1934 promises to be one of the outstanding years for the Coquille Mill Company with retail selling in the local field playing a strong part.

The points to be considered are artistic ararnge- ment and speed. Bring your own flowers and your own container. Not all of us are so situated that we ran choose surroundings which con form to classical standards of beauty and art We cannot, except to a lim ited extent, even have what are sometimes considered the essentials out of which to construct our concep tions of beauty. We must, instead, take beauty where wo find it, and adapt it as beet we can to our own particular needs. I, myself, am not sure that I care for too much of the classical standards in anything. Just enough of them to perservo balance and good form and to prevent my own ideas from running wild. However, since I have never yet won a prise on flower arrangement or doeoration, I think that I am probably far from being an authority on the subject, and for that reason, J have tried to find for your benefit what people who are authorities have to say on the sub- Mrs. Katharine Morrison Kahle in the March number of Good House keeping, says that "Flowers should be an essential part of the decoration of the room, not merely a finishing touch. Choose your flowers and their vases to suit the type and color scheme of your room. “In arranging flowers in their ap propriate bowls or vases, it is well to remember certain rules of composition which, if followed, wiH add to the in terest of the arrangement. "The high point of flower arrange ment should bo about one and a half times «to height of the aoatalaar, ami if the various flower stalks are of different heights, an agreeable ‘sky line’ will result. However to have every stalk a different length, would add variety without plan, so that it is beat to choose three heights—long, short and medium—and make all your stalks conform to one of these three lengths. “Do not overcrowd a vase, as the space between flowers, when property planned, may be as decorative as the blossoms themselves. Teo abundant foliage should be thinned out “Art is an individual expression and these rules should be studied, not for imitation, but so that you may ex press yourself in your own flower ar rangement, inspired by the flowers themselves and their fitness for the particular setting you give them. “The shape of the bowl should be determined by the form of the flower and the type of stem. Round, sturdy stemmed flowers, such as sinnias, marigolds and small dahlias, suggest round, squat bowls, while poppies and tulips which have slender, graceful stems, appear to better advantage in a tall vaee having curved lines. Fox gloves, canteibury bell, larkspur, and coiuiribine look well in tall straight vases because their stems are tall and straight. Form si flowers and lilies of all kinds, narcissus, daffodils and fruit blossoms should be arranged in cases which allow the stoma and blossoms to cast their shadows. They should therefore be placed near a wall or screen, rather than on a table out in the room." . Some of the arrangements for color are pink poppies and double blue lark spur in a sapphire vase, white pear blossoms in a ruby red vase, yeklow and pale Lavcmler African daisies in a round green\^wl on a deep purple base and light and deep orange day lilioa in a deep orange pottery bowl.
