A woman in Chicajo gave up to the

she could not keep a secret. The de

Lots of home people did not fully real
ize the extent of this valley's resources
until they read the facts in cold type in
the Observer's Industrial Edition.

Stensland, the bank wrecker, keeps

The recent rains played havoc w.th the

In fact, the rain helped the beet crop.
THANK YOU
The editors of the Observer would be
less than human if they did not admit
feeling highly gratified at the public's
reception of the Industrial Edition which
appeared yesterday. The practically un
animous appreciation of the merit of the
edition as a means for calling' the atten
tion of the outside world to the resources
and advantages of this valley is a re
ward to us for above the satisfactory
financial returns. The edition was fairly
profitable to this office, and we sincerely
believe it will bring great returns to the
Valley.
Our object throughout has been to put
theedition on a high plane, and we be-
lieve that it contains less matter open to
criticism than any special tdition that
has appeared in this section. There are
no portraits, no biographical sketches, no
whisky advertisements, no patent medi
cine ads. but an abundance cf clean,
truthful facts and authentic figures in
regard to the Grande Ronde Valley.
To be perfectly frank, we are quite
proud of this edition, and do not see at
this writing how it could have been
materially improved, bo naturally, we
accept as honest expressions the very
flattering comments that have reached us
from the public.

NOT B ETTER THAN THE BEST
BUT BETTER THAN THE REST

many patrons in every department, a reputation we point to with pardon
able pride, we want, now, to advise you that wa have opened our soda
fountain with a new line of crushed fruits and fruit juice which excel any
which we have ever had, and while we may occasianly find a party who
has nev tried one of our delicious ICE CREAM SODAS we find a hun
dred who have, and do, and always will, because they wart the best and
appreciate a fine article. We have some new flavors this year which are
going to be of universal favor on account of their delicate flavors. Hoping
you will kindly favor us with an early call, so we may show you.
We are respectfully.
