S-- ) 44 S 44 r WILL SPARE 0 EXPENSE At last night's meeting of the Board of Directors of the Union county ex position, the advertising committee was empowered to spare no expense in making public the deserved merits of the fair. The committee held a meeting this morning and proceeded at once to get busy as there Is no time, in their opinion, to spare to ad vertise the best fair that has ever been held in Eastern Oregon. Every paper in Union and Wallowa counties are to be used as advertis ing mediums and will be patronized liberally. In a week or ten days the large litographs will arrive and there Is quite a supply of them to be dis tributed over the two counties and else 'where if necessary. The peml uin lists are here having arrived from the State Printer, and will be dis tributed within a few days. The exhibit committee composed of V,'. J. Church, Chairman. W. II. Boh nenkamp, P. A. Charlton, J. E. Rey nolds, Wm. Ash, Dick McDonald, Jack Oliver and Sam Bolton, will start out and make a thorough and systematic canvas of Union count and secure all of the exhibits possible. When all of the exhibits are secured they will will engage one man here to go from house to house and explain to the ex hibitor the best method of handling the exhibits and the easiest possible way of transportation. There are a few of the stockgrow ers of the county who are a little slow in giving their consent to bring their stock here on account of the idea that Is prevalent that the stock will not receive proper care by hav ing them stabled on the streets. As soon as the committee get busy In their house to house canvas of the county this idea will disappear and the farmers and stockgrowers can see their way clear where all stock will recei ve t!"5 same If hot better care on the street than they would at the fair grounds. 44 4 44 44 44 44 44 Drygoods Department ALL TRIMMED MILLINERY A T ONE tt HALF PRICE II 44 44 Unequaled Bargains all through this store for one week, , , It Specials from Our 44 44 44 4 44 SHE'S A QUEEN! fUES A SIREN! la an expression that Is always heard at sight of a well de ' .d woman.
