Unemployment, lowering of value of farm and manufactured products, loss of business confidence, high taxes, high rentals—these and many other condi tions have brought about situations that vitally affect everyone. It might be called a “profitless age" through which we are passing. The greatest care in the handling of family and individual finance should be used now. 20th CENTURY methods are individual. They are alone in the fact that the 20th CENTURY is the only institution of any importance in this section that have priced all their goods on an Lo.b. storv K»..« No guessing is ever done about adding cost of delivery service or charge service. Each and ev ery dollar spent at these stores buys mexhandise. This, in our mind, is the fair way to cash buyers.

SCOTT FOLK WERE HOUSE BURNS WHILE LOCAL MAN RANKS HIGH WRECKED STEAMER ALASKA OWNER ATTENDS CHURCH The Multnomah Angler’s club team entered in the national bait and fly casters’ tournament to be staged at the Sellwood pool August 19. 20. 21 and 22 gathered Sunday morning at 9 a.m. for practice in preparation for the national events. Marvin K. Hedge of the Lents Hardware Co. finished second in the events, which gave him the high average. Although peerless fly and bait cas ters are entered from the various sections of the United States in the local tournament, members of the Multnomah Anglers’ club team are optimistic. Some of the prizes may find a home in Portland. It is be lieved that Black, McFarland and Hedge will be among those contest ing for final honors in the accuracy bait and fly events. Arrangements for the tournament are now about complete, according to Jack Herman, who is chairman of the committee in charge and captain of the M. A. club’s team. The grounds and targets are now ready for the first event of the tournament. Pro grams containing a complete list of prizes and events will be ready for distribution in a few days. Plans are under way. it is said, for the organization of a fly casters’ club in I^nts next year. STATE FAIR GROUNDS TO BE POPULAR SPOT The programme for the Oregon state fair for 1921, September 26- October 1, will be largely influenced by the fact that this year marks the 16th anniversary of the annual ev ent. More than ever before the week’s gathering will partake of the nature of a big homecoming, with pioneers and sons and daughters of pioneers meeting on the old camp ground that adjoins the state fair grounds in the capital city. This famous camping spot has almost be come hallowed ground, through its years of service as a reunion place of the men and women who helped to make Oregon and western history. Everything concerning the forth coming event points to the largest and best state fair in the state’s his tory. Already nearly every foot of space in the old and new buildings have been taken by exhibitors and it is anticipated that the eleventh hour demand will find the buildings inade quate to handle all the exhibits.
