Church Notes
First M. E. Church
Not in the memory of the oldest
residents of Oregon City has there
been a revival meeting of such long
duration as that now on at the First
Methodist Episcopal church. - The
special gospel effort was begun with
a Watch Night service New Year's
eve, and with the exception of one
Saturday night a service has been
held every night No time has been
fixed for the series to close, for the
interest is growing and the results
are most gratifying. The pastor is a
firm believer in harnessing the spir
itual energy generated by such a
movement to practical undertakings.
Twenty men will dine together at the
close of morning service next Sunday,
and at the conclusion of the meal will
go out in groups of two, making an
every member visitation" to homes
in the interest of promoting the world
program of the church.
The following Sunday . a men s
Christian workers conference will be
held for the organization of gospel
teams, which will spread the "Glad
Tidings" in school house and at street
meetings.
Every department of the work is
alive and growing. Three great ser
vices with special music are being
planned for Sunday, and a special
effort will be made to welcome visit
ors and strangers.

Saturday Shopping
Hints for Home
Shoppers
The dollar that is spent with the
home merchant is used by the shop
keeper to pay rent and taxes, and it
stays at home and keeps busy. The
customer 'that patronizes the home
store not only helps the community,
but can at any time go back to the
store and exchange whatever was
bought, or get more of the same
thing. The shopper that patronizes
home merchants shows confidence in
the local store that makes the busi
nessman want to do everything pos
sible to improve his stock, so every
body is benefitted. Among the things
that are offered this week in Oregon
City stores are the following:
Thirty sample suits, each of them
different, and every one the acme of
spring styles, are offered by Bannon
& Co., at $18 each. These suits can
not be duplicated in Portland for half
as much again. And on Saturday the
Bannon Btore will make its first show
ing of April styles in the famous
Welworth and Wirthmor waists, for
which many shoppers have been wait
ing.
Huntley Brothers this week are
making a specialty of popular fiction
and music at reduced prices, and also
are having a sale of perfumes and
other toilet necessities that no wo
man should miss.
At Frank BuBch's store there is a
display of newest patterns in the fam
ous "Black Cat" wallpapers, and also
a special offering of alluring rockers
at $4.30.
Burmeister and Andresen are hold
ing a "Kodak week," and have every
kind of good camera for the lover of
out-doors and photography. Tha high
water in the river, and the spring
time beauty of the fields and woods
at this time will make everybody want
a camera.
Adams Department store is contin
uing its showing of the famous Pal
mer garments for women, each gar
ment a gem in style and fit, and
right up to the minute in style. The
reasonable price asked for this line
of goods makes it especially attract
ive to discerning shoppers.

L, Mullan Discovers This Fact on
Inundated County Highway
A Ford automobile is not a boat,
and it wont float in fresh water.
Simon L. Mullan, road supervisor
of the Harmony district, and a can
didate for the republican nomination
for county commissioner, discovered
this Wednesday when on his way to
the county seat. He tried to utilize
his Ford as a ferryboat between Park-
place and Greenpoint, and failed to
make the further shore of the lake
which at present blocks the road.
Mr. Mullan sent his Ford into the
miniature inland "sea at top speed.
The machine swished through the
water for about a hundred yards, and
then stalled. Water was up above
the hubs, and oil from the engine pan
stilled the waves that slapped against
the side of the vehicle. Mr. Mullan

so much differ-

the extracts she

explained that it was because a
druggist is qualified to test ex

up to standard. It is a part of his
training to know. And as we sell
only the best, we will not sell an
extract that is not absolutely pure
and full strength.
That is why the extracts you buy
here go further and give such de
licious flavors.
