Christmas shopping took a sharp
Incline with the coming of season
al weather this week, and sales
seem destined to establish a new
record In La Grande.
Merchants are reporting a brisk
trade in every variety of merchan
dise. Never, they say, boa buying
extended more generally over the
merchandise field. With few -exceptions
there have been no par
ticular runs on any stocks. Kvery
thlng is selling well.
"1 hardly know where to con
centrate my sales," declared a
shopkeeper whoso wares are most
subject to whims and fancies.
U there Is any markVd prefer
ence. It is for goods of the better
clatfs. People are spending their
money more freely than they have
since the days just after the war.
Chiffon hose and silk lingerie
crllerions of prosperity have pass
ed over the counters in quantities
sufficient to satisfy the whole fem
inine population of the community.
Kmart sweaters, daihty negligees
and literally thousands, of flower
like kerchiefs have been purchased
it the reudy-to-wear departments.
Wrist wutchea have, been popular.
sellers at the Jewelry stores, with
cigarette cases and toilet urtleles
In close competition.
Among "the gifts that inenlke,"
scarfs of handsome designs nnd fine
texture have found favor. AJl kinds
of clothing, even to suits and over
coals, have numbered among the
holiday purchases.
Toy departments have yielded
wagouloads of engines that go and
dolls with a dozen talents. There
has been a preference for the bet
ter class of playthings toys that
instruct as well us amuse, ,
Music boxes that bided their time
since grandmother's day came
forth in rejuvenated glory this sea-
wh. v imsunas irees, and even
powder jars und atomizers, tinkle
merrily at the art counters.
. The American love of bright
colors has been demonstrated In the
popularity of the gay oriental casts.,
Some of them that achieve a high
degree of art and consequent ex-
penslveness have been the best
sellers.
In short; the shoppers are buy
ing what they want to give with
less attention to the cost. And
from the records of sales, Santa is
going to pack a heavy load this
Christmas.

Monday for Florida. Six games
have been booked, starting Chrtst-

ending January H at Bun Fran

added, but the Hears' manager said
they had learned a lesson from the
eastern trip when they tried to

which proved too much for the
players to stand.
