FOR THE
Easter
Parade:
A Splendid Easter
Readiness Pervades the
Millinery Salons:
Annex Second Floor
The immense Easter millinery exposition is complete; every hat is at "Attention!"
Unquestionably Portland's biggest and best display of beautiful Spring and Summer
headwear for dressy women is here, in a variety of correct models unapproached by
any other house in the Northwest. Not only is the wonderful assortment 'pleasing,
but the price range is that wide it covers the field thoroughly, from the purse that
pickets the $1 approach to the one that guards her "Serene Highness" that sits on
the $50 throne and smiles on her humbler but perhaps fully as beautiful sisters. Every
approved model is here: charming dress bats, magnificent pattern hats, and smart
suit and street hats in almost bewildering profusion. A hat to fit every purse and be
come every face. Original creations and adaptations, all reflecting Paris ideals. Beau
tiful, artistic, becoming, PRACTICAL hats; designed by artists and made by skilled
milliaers from high-class materials. Time was when the difference between expen
sive and inexpensive hats was in the style more than the material. Style was what
you paid for. That is, of course, true still cf some of the most exclusive creations,
but as a rule you can get as good style now in the $3 to $10 hats, which we make spe
cial showings of here this week, as tho' you paid twice or three times as much. Of
course, the materials cannot be. so expensive, but every conceivable stuff in fashion
being allowed, the maker has a wide latitude of choice. Special attention will be
given the "made-to-order" hats, all work being under the. immediate supervision of our
chief designer, Miss Smith, of New York City. Extra salesfolk and every other help
will be afforded the Millinery Salons this week to do the banner business of its long
history. Be sure 16 see the special display of exquisitely beautiful Easter Hats, priced
at from $5.00 to S lO.OO.

If President Roosevelt
Should Send You a Letter
Introducing a friend, would you honor that
letter? If "Bill Jones" had written the
same letter introducing the same friend,
would you honor it equally? Here then is
a moral The WORTH of a letter of intro
duction depends largely on the reputation
and position of the introducer. An adver
tisement, or announcement, may be con
sidered a letter of introduction, and the
Store that sends it forth upon its mission
the introducer. The responses this Store
receives from its announcements show
plainly we are in the Roosevelt class xof
stores from the attention paid ihem as,
compared with the "Bill Jones" shops,
(that are very good in their way) by an ap
preciative Public, who honor Initiative,
Honesty and Quality, Dependability and
authoritative Fashion in magnificent in
spiring merchandise. We believe this Store
has reached the highest pinnacle possible,
when it comes to .variety, assortment and
character of style, Certainly you would
not think of buying your Easter toggery
without first looking here. A series of
