The trouble was, he could not comprehend the absolute fairness of our newly established 2% cash discount system, supposing that it was a scheme primarily aimed to benefit a few and not all customers. He finally cooled off sufficiently to listen to our explanation of of this 2 % C AS H D I S C O U N T S Y S T E M and now realizes that every cash purchase is subject to this 2% discount and the tickets are mere.y used to facilitate the handling of the accounts, where the amounts involved are two small individually to allow of paying the 2% at time of purchase. But we explained that we will gladly give the 2"« cash discount at the time of purchase, if preferred, provided the order amounts to a dollar or more. Compare our prices first and dont get the idea that you are getting anything but a real 2% cash discount on all goods that you buy here.

Wright of Estacada is missing. The last seen of the animal was early Sunday morning when he started to follow the automo­ bile from Estacada towards Port­ land via Boring. The dog has probably taken up with some kindly farmer along the route, as he is of a sociable disposition and willing to accept the hospitality and food of strangers. Information as to the where­ abouts of “Hiram” will be great­ ly appreciated by the owner. fl El wood Items An Invitation To Women Readers * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * o f + , t 4 + I Eastern Clackamas News * ♦ ♦ + * + + ♦ ♦ * You are cordially welcome to attend the free Electrical Cooking School Lessons and Lectures given by our expert Mrs. M.

Patton of Estacada is this week in receipt of a communica­ tion from State Warden Shoemak­ er. stating that the commission has about 3,(XX) Chinese pheas­ ants for liberation in the state. As this county is admirably a- dapted for these birds, which multiply rapidly, a share of them should be turned loose here.
