In the evening the celebration
was closed with a “Grand Ball"
with a large crowd in attendance.
The following editorial in the Eugene Guard
should be read and with benefit by the people of
any community:
The Guard wishes once more to call to the a t­
tention of the people of Fugene and Lane coun­
ty the absolute folly of buying their merchan­
dise needs from t he large mail order houses
this country. More especially at this present
time is this warning necessary because just now
Eugene and the country are flooded with cata­
logues of the largest mail order house in Amer­
ica- catalogues which have been mailed from
the Portland branch of this concern. These cat­
alogues are very attractively prepared and ad­
vertise the fact that this concern is during the
month of July c o n d u c tin g ^ annual mid-summer
sale. The descriptions of goods offered therein
is very alluring but remember that does not better
the quality of the goods one iota. Remember
also when you buy from this concern every dol­
lar you send them is irrevocably lost to this
country and its upbuilding. When you have the
spot cash this concern will sell you merchandise
no better than your local stores and with very
little difference in price, but remember also if
you haven’t the cash to buy, this concern 'would
not ship you a penny’s worth on cred it Then it
is you turn to your local merchant to purchase
what you need until your money comes in. It is
your local merchant who extends you credit
when you need it and it is from him you should
buy for cash when you have it. Spend your
money with your home merchant and eventually
you will get a large share of that dollar b a c k -
spend it with the mail order house and the dol­
lar is gone forever.-— —
