HELLO!
The first fully equipped ''Telephone
Store" on the Pacific Coast
GREAT NEWS TODAY!
THIS IS NOW A "TELEPHONE STORE" INDEED!
The First Complete Store Telephone Service Ever Installed on the Pacific Coast Has Been Arranged Ready for Business Today!
According to"" unvarying custom, the Olds, Wortman & King stora leads the van in introducing and installing modern conveniences for Portland's shoppers. While other stores have teen indulging in their usual Summer lethargy, we have been husy, quietly
but industriously, adding many improvements to the store service. Among the most important is the addition of a large, complete and modern telephone equipment the largest and most perfect on the entire Coast. An immense new switchboard has been
installed the largest in store use in the West extra operators have been engaged, and a large number of openings or outlets, so to speak, added, with cords for accommodating all calls centering at the Olds, Wortman & King store. You may now have direct
connection with any department in the house, and our patrons may sit at their home phones and talk with their favorite salesperson here at the store. Had the hundred-armed Briareus, of mythological lore, had a hundred ears, his hands and ears would have
been entirely inadequate to compete with the new and enlarged telephone system now ready for business at the store talked he never so fast! It's a store convenience; make use of it from your own home. Any part of the store any counter may be called
up. We do not as a rule accept telephone orders for goods advertised at Friday's special prices, but, as a sort of celebration of the completion of Portland's greatest store telephone system we will fill orders by phone today for any article on this page
unless specifically stated otherwise. Of course it's better to come to the Btore, but if you can't come call up the "TELEPHONE STORE" Exchange 12.
