common cause, was characterized as
"Inestimable" by Mr. Denton. He plot
'tured the Oregon State Retail Mer
chants' association as a boon to mer
chants, and expressed satisfaction that
the merchants of Woodburn had affili
ated themselves with the parent or
ganization.

for a feeling In their communities of
"You Home Town First," the ultimate
value of which could not be undet
rated for merchants. Mr. Denton told
