Salem Woolen Mill Store ROBT. C BISHOP, Manager C. P. BISHOP, Proprietor OPENING OF FALL AND WINTER SEASON, SATURDAY, AUGUST 31, 1012 The Leading Clothing and Furnishing Goods Store in the Willamette Valley and headquarters for Made in Oregon Fabrics. To Our Many Friends and Patrons, Greeting: Thanking you for marked favors in the past, we wish to advise that our Mr. Robt. C. Bishop has recently returned from a ten weeks purchasing trip in the leading markets of the East. He neglected nothing that a thorough knowledge of the requirements of a store of this character would suggest. In making his selections of Fall Clothing the first prerequisite considerations were, parity of fabrics and high grade tailoring. The largest and best clothing manufacturers in the United States were visited, their fabrics tested, their tailoring examined and their labor conditions scrutinized (no sweat shop garments allowed in this store), and selections made that will give patrons the very latest and best that money could buy. Additional salesmen will be added to our selling staff and each customer will be assured of good service. In addition to our large Clothing and Furnishing Goods Departments, we shall specialize the coming season on some lines of goods on a much larger scale then we have in the past, Boy’s and Children’s Department will be much larger and the assortment more elaborate than heretofore. As in the past, we shall feature Oregon Made Blankets. Our alliances with two of the leading Woolen Mills in Oregon gives us opportunities for supplying our trade at about the price as the ordin ary store has to pay. Another line th a t we shall feature more strongly is Trunks, Suit Cases, Traveling Bags, Steamer Trunks and Travelers Conveniences. We shall sell a guaranteed three fibre trunk, light in weight but strong as an Ox. In Men’s Shoes we have secured the agency of a shoe made by E. T. W right & Co., of Rockland, Mass., called the “ Ju st Right Shoe.” We havu sold over 100O pairs the past year with universal satisfaction Our guarantee goes with every pair. We are distributors of the well known Dents Gloves. Every man wearing dress gloves knows their value as well as appreciates their appearance. The famous Pendelton Fancy Indian Blankets and Auto Robes can be had in Salem at our 3tore. Only to have one is a pleasure. We specialy wish to emphasize the fact as often said That the Reliability of the Merchandise Sold in this Store is Guaranteed at All Times by the Undersigned. SALEM WOOLEN MILL STORE ROBT. C.
