The Spring season Is on In earnest and everybody now knows who has thel goods,
who makes the low prices. OUR GRAND OPENING of last week attracted hundreds of
people in fact we think every lady In La Grande and many from the country attended the
opening. All praised the splendid showings of merchandise and many made large pur-
t chases but there are still lots of good things left.
