The house-warming dance at the new garage last Saturday night was enjoyed by a large crowd, and all seemed to like the concrete dancing flor. Old-fashioned music was on hand to give zest to the dances, and all seemed to have one of the best times of the season. Twenty-eight years ago C. N. Sargent opened a restaurant In The Dalles and during the time from then to date he has been in the cat ering business at Wasco's county seat. For the past 11 years he has been conducting the White Restau rant, and has built up a clientele the envy of all has competitors. His business has outgrown his old quart ers, necessitating larger accommo dations, therefore he has fitted up the west room of the new garage building Just across from the old White Restaurant and will open its doors to the public today. The dining room and kitchen hav concrete floors, over which is spread heavy linoleum. A new' restaurant irange. Frigidaire refrigerator, table3 chairs and, other adjuncts to a first rrlass eatinir nlace have been in stalled. The cafe is as sanitary ts modern science can make it. Mr. Sargent will take all his old restau rant force with him to the new loca tion. He desires to call the atten tion of the people of this section to the fact that he will continue to serve patrons the same as of yore, Droviding the best of meal at a minimum price and guarantees ser vice second to none. Maupin people when in The Dalles will do well to patronize this cafe as it is noted for the excellence of its cuisine and the reasonableness of its charges.. crete floor.
