Spacious Building at Fifth .:

The I, Gevurta & Son company, house
furnishers, closed tha doors of Its old
store for the last-lima early this morn
ing, and tomorrow morning will open
for business In lta handsome new 12
story and . double basement, building at
Fifth and Alder streets. !
For 20 I'ears the company has been
In business at the store Just vacated
on Yamhill, between1 First and Second
streets. Last night at 10 o'clock a bat
talion of 40 automobile trucks lined up
In front of the building,, and a corps
of 100 workmen : began loading them
with the firm's big stock of goods. Tha
moving gangs worked all night, and to.
day the stock Is being arranged in tbt
new home In readiness for tomorrow's
opening for business.
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.
