r. l.. COE RETIRES FROM
MERCANTILE BUSINESS

The general merchandise establish
ment of r. L. Coe & Co., for nearly
quarter of a century one of the
leading establishments OF its kind in
southern Oregon, has been purchased
by VIM. Schilling & Co., recently
from Long Beach, Cal, and will be
turned over to the new proprietors
as soon as the invoicing can be COM
pleted.
The new firm is composed of Mr..
and Mrs. VIM. Schilling and their two
sons, Cecil and Arthur Schilling, the
new people coming here with the
best of recommendation from their
old home where they had been among
the foremost of the substantial citi-
zens for many years Mr. Schilling
Sr. was in the general merchandising
business in Long Beach for nearly
twenty years, amassing a fortune
there, and after selling his establish
ment engaged again in the business
in Los Angeles. He was a director
of several of the financial institu-
tions of Long Beach, and bears Gre
dentials from the leading bankers
and business men of his city. He
will have associated with him in the
business in this city two of his sons,
Cecil and Arthur, the former of the
two having arrived Friday evening,
the latter to arrive in a couple Of
weeks. Both the senior Mr. Schilling
and Cecil will remove their families
here at once The new firm will re-
tain the store in its present location,
having taken lease on the building
from Mr. Coe.
The Coe general merchandise
store was established in Grants Pass
tweny-four years ago in September,
r. l.. Coe having been its owner and
manager during all of that time. The
store was always progressive and up
to-the-minute in its stock and con-
duct, and It's history has been that Of
progress and able management,
growing from the modest beginning
of "a years ago to a commercial em-
porium employing a large corps OF
clerks and with a trade extending
throughout the valley. During these
years Mr.. Coe has built up a reputa-
ton for fair dealing and upright
ness, and while he will be missed
from the commercial life of the city,
the monument he has built will con-
tinue under the management of VIM.
Schilling & Co.. who are undoubted-
ly worthy successors Of a worthy
builder
Mr.. Goes business life in Grants
Pass has met with much of financial
success, and it is a pleasure to an
nounce that his retiring from active
mercantile business does not mean
his Withdrawing from local enter
prise, but he still retains extensive
property interests within the city in
addition to a well developed Apple
gate farm. He says that it will take
the better part of a year to close up
the business accounts with his Gus
toners, and that after that his plans
are not matured beyond the further
development Of his property.
The store occupies the entire low
er floor Of the handsome Coe block at
the corner of Sixth and E streets.
The taking Of the invoice preparatory
to the turning of the establishment
over to the new owners will com
mence Monday morning, and the
store will be closed till next Satur-
day morning, when it will open with
VIM SchilIins & Co. in charge
