(Continued from Page 1.) real credit to thia section was Clyde E. Sager, whose »tore was situated at the ' junction of hosier road and 92ud street. lie recently sold out to Messrs. Coffman and Spring and the latter gentlemen »re doing a nice, clean conservative I business at this location. They have a | full line of family groceries, and a I special line of Granite, Tinware and ;crockery. A man who takes a pride in his I pharmaceutical goods is F. R. Peterson I ot the Lents Pharmacy. H< has the J best st >ck in this line to lie found for < miles. Many druggists frfim c osei In ' point* are accustomed to look to I im stock.* are ‘for assistance when their stocks I found wanting. He is -a: so sharing in I the holiday spirit by displaying a select i line of cut glare in his windows ranging in value from 75c to $15. He is «tiering a choice water set for *15 which should bring *18 or *20. Mr. Peterson states that he never charges as high pricee for his goods as the Portland stores, with the exception of patent medicines, the use of which he doesn’t encourage. Mr. and Mrs. Gue Meier have an apprizing bakery opposite the l-ents Poet Office, and their window decora tions are very clever. They are well supplied with Christmas cakes from 15c to 40c, and apjiear to have everything in the line of cakes and pastry. Every thing that they handle is home-made. They find business is good. An innovation for this section of the city is the Grocery Grabeteria No. 6 with Carl A. Olson in charge. This is one of a series of similar stores through out the city owned by a Portland cor poration. Mr. Olson expects to locate permanently in this locality after the first of the year. The method of shop- I ping at this store to anyone who is "on i to the ropes" is to go to the shelves and help yourself (the pricee are all marked) and then pay the cashier. Barliers, as a rule, are not expected to pay much attention to window dis play», but the Chester Barber Shop on Main and Foster is quite an exception. In ordinary times it is always neat and attractive with potted plants etc., but at this Christmas season it has entered the show with one of the tastiest holi day windows in the town. We haven’t talked to them much to find out if they have any “Christmas Specials,” for they have been "full up” every time we have passed, but we are convinced that their uniform courtesy, their cheery “Good mornings” and their progressive spirit a* shown in their window display stamp this shop as being a credit to the community. We haven’t consulted Dunn and Bradstreet to see if John D. is as rich as be is reputed to be, but we find that at the store which he is running at Main street and car track there is a general air of prosperity and activity. Customers keep him so busy that it is hard tofget a word edgeways with him. He keeps a staple line of family groceries vegetables and feed, and specializes in ireeb roasted coffee—in deed he has quite a reputation in this line. He has a goodly supply of Christ mas fruits, camlies and nuts, and some old fashioned Christmas Plum puddings and Christmas candles caught our eye a* we left the ■tore. Our office boy says John D. is just his “nom-de- pl urne” and that his real name is J. H. Donaldson The biggest little store in this section I* the Stevens Cash Department Store, 5827 20 9-‘nd street, formerly The Emporium. Mr Stevens has the largest stòck ih proportion to the size of his stoi » to be found in the community, He lias 2-J**‘ feet of floor space, and the * days Vii*, force is kept mightv busy indeed waiting on their customers. He pointed out to ns a * Billy Buike" house dr-ss selling at *1.98 which can not be bought anywhere in West Port land at less than *2.50, also a staple line of cashmere hose retailing at 25c, which brings 35c to other merchants. KENDALL The Sunday School entertainment and Ladies Aid Bazaar Saturday evening was *n enjoyable and successful affair, there being quite a number of young people from outside of the district, thanks, partly to the “Herald.” The announcement of the meeting of the stewards of the newly organised Methodist Church to be held at Mrs. Pendleton’s should have been at Mrs. Pomeroys, both the writer and his informant getting the names mixed. They are both estimable young people and one is a recent subscriber to the "Herald” and the other will be in the near future. The Parent-Teacher entertainment and local talent minstrel show Satur day evening, Dec. 16, promisee to be au interesting and enjoyable affair. Mr. Stephen* new bouee nearing completion is one of several substantial improvements in the district. Two new houses are being built on the slope east of the school house, one, a log house, has lieen standing uncompleted for some time; if finished would make a pleasant home for some one; The short price of road at Kendall that was not paved last fall is quite muddy and the worst of it is we under stand the road district voted not to finish It next spring. Guess the west end of the district had the most votes and wanted some improvements there bnt we hope they will reconsider as the Oregon City road, south from Kendall, is about the most used of any in Clackamas county. Mr. Schroeder is still building chicken houses, if be keeps on he will have a good portion of five acres covered. Some of the dairies customers kick at a slight raise in the price of milk per month, but why should they? As feed, bottles, tope, and even the paper re ceipt* for payment cost more.
