A number ot Bridge people went to Myrtle Point Tuesday to attend the funeral of Mrs. Frances Cribbins, who passed away early Sunday morning, after a brief illness. Mrs. Cribbins was one of the early settlers of this community and was loved by a host of relatives and friends, who will miss her.

If I don’t miss my guess the little town of Roseburg will think every man and woman In Oregon belongs to the Eagles or the Auxiliary. When you stop and think of a town the size of Coquille sending forty-five delegates and practically every city in the state sending the same amount in propor tion it will make quite some gather ing. The delegates to the N. Y. A. re ported that everything was progress ing nicely with most of the organiza tions in town taking an active part and most of them sponsoring some kind of a game or sport for the ben efit of the younger people. Games like horseshoes, ping pong, volley ball, etcetera, being on the list. I think it will be a fine thing to get playground equipment for the young sters, then maybe some of us old timers can get a chance to get into a good old time argument over a horseshoe game or something. It was also voted to donate »3.00 to the N. Y. A. as a membership fee for the delegate. I understand all organiza tions will be asked for the same amount , The secretary reed a letter from Brother Lans Leneve last meeting night and it surely was a laugh from start to finish. Lans says he is get ting along fine in his new job and likes it fine, but I think he is lone some for someone to tell a fish story to, so for lack of an audience, he wrote his latest fish tale to us. Now 1 wouldn’t say it was a lie, but I will say it was a mighty big fish story, even for Lans. The regular meeting is cancelled for this week so the next meeting will be Thursday, July 3th, at which time we will get a report from the dele gates from the convention at Rose burg as to what is on the docket for the coming year. I hope it calls for an Eagles Hall in Coquille and such a thing might come to pass, and what we could do with a nice home here. So come out next week and get the news in the lodge hall direct. See you all next week if I survive.— Frees Correspondent. ....... .................... metz and the hostess The meeting was conducted by Mrs. Harry Hef fley, vice president, in the absence of the president, Mrs. Jack Haga.
