ANOTHER Biirftlhiday Party "Having Completed 25 Years in one Business in the same location, I feel entitled to a Celebration So I'm going to give a Party." The Presents A Birthday party wouldn't bs complete without pres ents. Again I'm going to turn things around and I'll give the presents. And I want especially to favor the old-timers and those not so old the loyal friends and customers the good people ot this community whom I have known, and who have known me through the long, pleasant years that I've been In business. And here's the way I'm going to give the presentB. I am offering a reduction of 1 Per Cent Per Year for every year you have been resident of Eugene up to 25, this reduction to apply on the purchase of any pair ot shoes In my store. If you have lived In En gene five years, you will save five per cent. If you have lived here 10 years, you will save 10 per cent 10 cents on the dollar 60 cents on a $5.00 pair of shoes. If you have lived here 50 years, you will buy your shoes at a 25 per cent re duction, one per cent for each year up to 25, the number of years tliat my store has served you. If you were born In Eu gene, you have earned a 1 per cent discount for every year of your age, if you are 25 years old or younger. This Is not an ordinary "sale." I have no old stock to work off. You mske your selection of anything In my store. I'm giving a Birthday Party. And this Is my way of showing the appre ciation that I feel. I want you to share with me my genuine gratification at the completion ot a busi ness experience of 25 years, fio I'm giving a straight-out reduction of 1 per cent on anything for sale in my store, for each year that you have lived In Eugene, up to 2G. Newcomers Ysu too will appreciate the merit of Graham's footwear and the expert shoe service available for you In Graham's Shoe Store; a stora that de servedly merits the confi dence ef our community. THE PLACE The party will he hold at my store Graham's 828 Wil lamette Street tho same place where I've been selling shoes for 26 years my busi ness home. But everybody knows Graham's store. THE CAKE A birthday party without a cake would be like an Ore gon winter without rain, or a football season without an upset So we're going to have a cake a real one with candles 25 of thorn and what's more we're go ing to give a piece to every customer. In 1006 "Dave" Just graduated from the Univer sity of Oregon, with the confidence of youth, associ ated himself with Mr. C. A. Burden In the retail shoe business. The store known to many "old-tlmorB" as Burden & Graham now Graham's, has long Blnce become an institution In Eu gene. Two decades have passed. In the meantime, disturbances of tho magni tude of a World War, to gether with othera of minor importance, have been ex perienced. There have been many recurring ups and downs, still Graham's store remains In the same location where your mother bought your shoes as a child whore you now In turn buy shoes for your own dear little ones. Through It all Pave Gra ham has enjoyed it all tho business in which ho has spent these many years, has been a good business as such things go. He has enjoyed a very generous share of your patronage but his friends, worth a thousand times this, he values more than anything else. That's the reason Graham's Shoe Store is celebrating. In these days of uncertainly and rapid changes 25 years In the Bame business, in the same location, Is a good, long time. The occasion to cele brate comes only once In a quarter of a century. Iave Graham Is entitled to, and takes considerable pride In the event. Many others have come and gone In the meantime, but "Uave" finds himself In the same town In the same bus iness, and In tho very same store where he started. It's only natural that he should think this event of some Im portant! to himself, to his associates In this business, Harry Powell, Harold Kd bloom, John Saunders and Elisabeth Hichard to his friends and to the commun ity that he has served.
