Progressive Firm in New
Quarters With Fine
Stock of Goods

The firm of Rostein & Greenbaum is
now comfortably ensconsed in its new
location, the store room adjoining the
old post Office on Commercial street

located for some years past. In adj
dition to their former features of dry

and now have what might be termed
a small department store They have
had this building remodeled and inn
proved until it is one of the largest
stores on the street, including the two
story store room at the rear. All
told this gives them fine quarters for
their three departments.
Many people will be glad to con-
gratulate Mr.. Greenbaum on his

and later was identified with the Capt.

with Willis Bros. Business alSlred

but in 1896 he again returned to his

During the paisb year he has associated
with him, his brother-in-law, Ed Ro-

VIII Build Septic Tank.

Parties coming over from Newport
where a large portion of the people
of this city and others in the VIII
lamette valley and Southern Oregon
are spending their summers, report
that a move is ON foot for better sani
tation and sanitary appliances at Nye
Creek, where most Of the summer Wis,
itors live either in cottages of tents
Thus far there is no provision for a
disposal Of the sewage from the town
and it is feared that in years TO some
this may become quite a problem. In
order to prevent any evil effects from
this source IL is proposed by n mann
ber of the people owning cottages
there to instoll septic sewage tanks
at their places and thus introduce In
the town a solution of the problem
one that MANY a city has wrestled
with unsuccessfully In the past.
Several owners of cottages have al
ready taken steps to provide theil
places with the septic sewage tanks
and before the next season at New
port 1t Is expected that at least Z
dozen OF these win be built at Nyt
Creek. The expense of the materia
for the tank for summer cottages oc
cupied by a family at the beach will
be less than 500 and the labor will
cost less than that amount, so thai
the cost of providing a way for the
disposal of sewage will not be great
and the problem ds easily solved.
