THE AL MAN. Under our constitution no man can be president of the United States until he is 3." years old. Our youngest president, Theodore Roosevelt, was 42 years when he first accepted the responsibility. But in a modern grocery store we need alertness, tjuir-k footed action as well an hrnin. so this sure The Stanley Way will be put on the map with a force younger in age than it takes to make presidents.

K. Chantrr, who has had 'the contract for erecting the building. We believe this is one of the bet buildings in Kugene; it ia of firm con struction, is ft beautiful building, and in every way n credit to our city. i On the lower f oor are five tnrc rooms, end. haying twenty feet front agi', nnd one room fifty feet in width. On the second floor are fifteen apart ments, these having been leased by Mr. and Mrs. Harry Shaw. A full basement, .K.fcet'in depth nnd Ktl feet by 8S feet with a concrete floor is available fof wareroom space for tenants. Mr .(.'linutry has hnd years of ex perience in the building game, work ing mainly in Texas and southern California. "Wo arc in hopes he will become a permanent fixture in Ku gene. The cement, steel, lime and other building materials were bought they arc usually fake schemed to set you into the store.. We advertise to sell. Buy all you want of anything. THE AD MAX. N"t. only is honesty the best policy, it is the only policy on which n great, permanently gucccsnful busiiiss can be built. Honesty in advertising will blaze the trail. Soon we'll lmve 7o per cent of this entire ciininiMiiity buying groceries the Stanley Way. THE AD MAN. CASH-NO DELIVERY Thiit'a the, way w are going lri'e!i groceries, because we believe it is the best way in fact the only way under modern business c miiiionx.
