The Price of Cotton is Soaring
Higher Ever Higher but
the Price of
Wirthmor Waists
is Still the Same
It is a most unique and economical merchandising plan that
enables us to still sell these wonderful Wirthmor Waists at $1.00.
The price of cotton and cotton fabrics has advanced exces
sively recently reaching the highest figure since Civil war days,
and still the price of WIRTHMOR WAISTS remains the same.
In these deservedly popular Blouses the materials used are just
as good as ever; they'll wear as well; they'll launder as well;
they're made as finely; and the STYLES are just as genteel and
pretty as in the past.
Only the vast volume of WIRTHMOR sales, the many large
economies of the WIRTHMOR PLAN, coupled with the forehand
ed purchase of material and a fixed purpose on the part of re
tailer and maker to hold down price accounts for these truly
remarkable values.

Police Are Instructed to Take
All Unlicensed Canines
At the council meeting last night,
the mayor gave explicit instructions
to the chief of police concerning the
stray dog situation. Every canine in
the city over four months of age must
have a license. The chief of police is
now in receipt of the new tags for
this purpose, and one must be attach
ed to the collar of each dog running
at large. A number of complaints
have been received by the city of
ficials concerning the situations, and
they are determined that direct ac
tion be taken. Poundmaster William
Knoop, in conjunction with the po
lice force, will take up every dog
that is found at liberty without the
license tag.
In a suit filed late Friday after
noon at the county clerk's office, Clara
E. Morey commenced action to re
cover on a note given by the Glenmor
rie company, a realty company of
Portland. The basis of the action
is a promissory note, given June 15,
1910, for the sum of $207,767.50, and
due five years later. This note was
signed by Franklin T. Griffithpresi
dent of the Glenmorrie company, and
is secured by a mortgage on certain
properties in Clackamas county. The
complaint alleges that the payments
on the note have not been met, and
that the sum of $26,606.20 is all that
has been paid. There is a total in
terest due of $116,508.80, of which
$12,905.77 has been paid, leaving a
balance of $103,603.03 in interest due.
The plaintiff, through her attor
neys, asks that the mortgage be fore
closed, and that a judgment in the
sum of $241,101.30 for unpaid prin
cipal be entered, with the further
Service Flag Dedicated
A large though inadequate service
flag for former O. A. C. men now in

bears 1056 stars 1050 blue for the
men living and six gold stars for the
dead. President Kerr announced that
already a new flag is under way for,
the additional men who will join the
colors prior to commencement. Al
ready about 200 new stars are needed.

type of phonograph. It lacks all the crudities of yesterday.
Tone is more natural than ever before. The most dif

with absolute fidelity.
The Brunswick Method of Reproduction includes The
Ultona. Now all records can be played in the exact way
each requires. A turn of the hand and the proper needle
and diaphragm are presented to each type of record.
Heretofore one-record instruments have prevailed.
Some require attachments. None of the leading phono

Your ideas of phonographic

You cannot be satisfied with yes
