if present indications continue there is reason to believe
that we will not feel anything of the depression, which
by the way, is said to be getting better at the present.
But the point we started out to make is the fact that
there is every reason to believe that this will be one of the
best years Bandon has ever experienced. The opening of
First street is something that everyone has felt the need
of for some time. Now the work is practically done, and
though we are not at liberty to give out statistics at pres
ent, we are assured from reliable sources that there wil
be at least four or five substantial buildings put up on this
street during the coming summer.
Then it looks very much now as if First street would
be paved from the pier at the west end to the Bank of
Bandon corner, which will make the entire street one of
the best that any town in the county has.
In this connection it would not do to pass up the First
National Bank building, the Ellingson building, and oth
ers now under construction, and the fact that the Stan
dard Oil Co. is rushing their building to completion and
will put in a- stock sufficient to supply the whole Coquille
Valley and Curry county will add much to the activities
in a business way here.
In fact everything points to a good season's business
and plenty of work for the people, and when the govern
ment gets busy on their $90,000 project in the river it
should make things hum here as they have never done
before.
THE KNOCKER. ; ' '
It is generally conceded that persistent knockers are
one of the worst, drawbacks to any community. They
iscourage industry, retard business, hinder progress and
often drive away proposed new indusries. Even if a new
school house is to be built, a squabble over the site is in
jected, delaying the erection of the building for a year or
two. If an obstruction is to be removed from a street
the knocker will immediately line up with the obstruc
tionist and probably viciously abuse the officials who are
using their best efforts for the public convenience and the
city's welfare. If a bridge must be built, the site which
will best serve the public and most facilitate traffic, pro
viding the greatest degree of comfort and safety to those
who must use it most, the knocker will strenuously, oppose
it, and even encourage litigation to prevent its constitu
tion. If a big new industry is proposed a systematic
assault is begun on those backing the movement, virtu
ally giving notice that neither their intended enterprise
nor their heavy investments of capital are wanted. While
the knocker may often pose as a reformer such preten
sions are generally hypocritical and ridiculous. HeT
an incubus constituting a heavy burden on the com
munity and a serious handicap lo progress. Both pub
lic and private enterprise suffer from the work of the
nocker. Can there be found a more abominable crea
ture than a persistent knocker?
The busy man's creed: "I believe in today and the
work I am doing; in tomorrow and the work I hope to do,
and in the sure roward which the future holds. I believe
in courtesy, in kindness, in generosity, in good cheer, in
friendship and honest competition. I believe there is
something doing somewhere for every man ready to do
it. I believe I'm ready RIGHT NOW. Coos Hay Times

About n dozen years ago n London
costermongcr who hnd saved a tidy
'Hum of money went Into tho carting
business on tils own account Finally
ho secured a big contract for removing
and disposing of ushus, out of which
he made a fortune. Then he made n
splurge, and, having Invested part of
tils money In house property In the
east of London, ho wished to rise, like
a phoenix, from his nsbes Into some port
of society. Ills golden key applied to
the coffers of an Impecunious aristo
crat opened Uio way.
Ills now friend, among other things,
udviMo4 him that visiting cards wcro n
necessity, and as a guldo to drawing
one up ready fr tho printer handed
him ono of his own, which rend, "Har
old Do Vcrc. lonn nousc, Portsmouth
Square. V."
Two days Inter as Do Vore was Bit

There bad been great excitement
over tho coming of n comet, and llvo-
yenr-old Hobby hnd been eagerly
watching for It One night his father
roused him from sleep nnd took hlui
In his arms to see It "Wake up,
Uobby, wake upl" said his father.
"Look, nobby! Do you seo tho comet?"
Hobby looked sleepily up into the sky.
Then came tho long drawn bray of u
donkoy. Hobby's head sank down on
his fnthcr's shoulder. "Oh, Bobby,"
said his mother, "wnko up and seo tho
comet!" "I sued it" murmured Hobby
and refused to look any moro. Tho
