was intentionally left out of the

the dry law to prohibit only the
manufacture and sale of intoxicants

Coot-Curry Exhibit
The products which will be ex

at the Panama Pacific Exposition
consist chiefly of the following:
wood products, dairy products, sea
foods, fish and game, fruit and veg

goods of all kinds manufactured in
these two counties, and photographs
showing harbors, scenery and re
sources.
These products are being assem
bled as last as possible at Marsh

be as complete as possible by Jan
uary 1, 1915; however, additions
and replacements may be made dur
ing the period of the Exposition
which is from February 20th to
December 4th, 1915.
The response which has been
given thus far by the people is very
satisfactory to those who have
charge of the exhibit, bat addition
al products are needed, and anyone
who has any article of merit for
exhibit purposes is requested to send
the same in to headquarters as soon
as possible. Address same to Coos-

Most articles that have been ob

An effort will be made to sell at the
close ol the Exposition,for the bene

are salable.
The people are earnestly request

Right after every funeral reel;
Andit is such a pleasing sight
To see folks dying, left and right!
