Its Purpose Stated to Be to Join in Making City Better for All Concerned “Wo believe that enough business to support another merchandising establishment, business that right fully belongs to Cottage Grove, is going elsewhere. We believe that we can hold a large part of that business here, and that is one rea son why wo are establishing our store here.” That is a statement by C. 8. Lowry, local manager for the J. C. Penney company, whose store here will open sometime dur ing the first of March. “Of course the factor which decided us in lo cating here,” stated Mr. Lowry, “is because the survey imide by ropre- sentatives of the J. C. Penney coin- pany indicated that this is going to bo a first class business point. Cottage Grove already has th«* repu tation of being one of the best little cities in tho volley and all tho in dications are that it is going to get better all the time»-” His company, Mr. Lowry stated, is ready to join with the other business interests in making it a bettor community for all.
