When the firm first started in busi ness Jt occupied but a corner of tha store-block Just vacated. ' The business increased rapidly and it was soon nec essary to take additional floor and storage and display space. Still fur ther additions were required as the years passed and eventually the entire business block was occupied by tha com pany, . When the business outgrew the ca pacity of the building It was decided to make still more substantial Improve ments and extensions, and to that end arrangements were made to remodel and add five stories to , tha Falling building at Fifth and Alder streets. This "wOrTf Ti how completed' and Mon day will see the old firm in Its splen did new home. Besides the large stock of goods moved during the night from the com pany store, many truckloads of fur nishings were taken from the company's warehouses. "Twenty years in one place has cer tainly made that place seem like home to us," satd Philip Gevurti, manager of the company, yesterday, "bwt we are glad to go at that because our new store will not only be larger but will be more modern, more convenient, and more centrally located than the old one. We have grown rapidly and are now prepared for the further growth that we expect as Portland continues to progress. Though the new store will be open completely ror business Monday morn Ing, the formal opening will be delayed until after the' first of the year pend ing the completion of the upper stories or the building.
