After more than two decades as keeper
at the zoo in Washington park, where
he .baa been the hero of many a young
Portlander, Charles Herrmann is to be
retired.
The city council will act upon the re
quest of the park bureau at a meeting
scheduled for Wednesday afternoon,
and Herrmann-, whose actiye service, in
the bureau has totaled 28 years, will be
placed on a pension. For the last two
or three years he has been in 111 health
and unable to take charge of the many
animals in the zoo.

Must Have More Business
The Plain Spoken Truth
We are up against one of the hardest years of our 20 years' experience. Buying is
subnormalfar below expectations. . The market in addition has been flooded with
cheap and inferior merchandise. Sales, some genuine, others of doubtful character,
have forced prices down on dependable merchandise. These are facts. They are
conditions that must be faced, and there is only one way.
