WHAT BOOSTER DAY MEANS
TO BEND AND VICINITY
The people of Bend and vicinity are waking up to
the realization that Booster Day is the commercial event
of the month, that on this day it is possible to purchase
merchandise at less than cost. The large increase in
sales on last Booster Day by the members of the Mer
chants' Association and the throngs of eager shoppers
that filled the stores all day Saturday, October 23, goes
to prove this statement. .
And the reason for each Booster Day being a
greater success than the one preceding is well founded.
Every merchant in the association places three articles
on sale that day at less than the actual wholesale cost.
Every article on sale is staple, something that the public
have use for all the time, something that you would
otherwise pay the regular price for and use seven days
in each week. The articles offered at this Booster Sale
is merchandise of quality and things you are going to
need soon, if not right now. If not bought on this day,
you are going to pay from 25 per cent to 50 per cent
more for the same articles wnen you.au uuy. jjuuu

SEASON STARTS OUT
WELL, SAYS CAPPER
'-The men's furnishings trade will
do a good business this fall," was the
recent statement of John Capper,
president of Capper & Capper of Chi
cago, "If tho newspapers and the de
partment of Justice will only let us
alone. The barometer of fall busi
ness with us Is the hat trade, which
starts off earlier than.other apparel,
and in both of our stores tho hat
departments have already broken all
records.
"We aro optimistic over future
business, but are buying conserva
tively, and we believe merchants
generally will pursue a similar pol
icy." Speaking of hats, the small model
felt hat with a bow in the back is
destined to play a big part in' lid
style In the next few feeks hatters
say. Somo of the hats are being
shown with a large, and some with a
large bow, according to trade de
mands. It is expected that the
small felt hats will soon result In
a compromise shape, between the
large and smal beanies.
A Los Angeles merchant reports
that ho Is selling hundred's of hats
at prices running from $S to $1
and points out that this refutes the
claim that the public would bo
thrifty In Its apaprel purchases this
season. He says the narrow curled
brims aro having quite n voguo.
ARTIFICIAL SILK
INDUSTRY GROWING
Artificial silk ,1s certainly coming
Into Its own. At one time a trifle
frowned down upon, today It Is rec-
nlzed as a very keen competitor of
the real thing, and figures given out
by the nabobs at Washington, D. C,
show that at no time during, or since.
the war has the world supply of artl
flclal silk been equal to tho demand
Ths first real boost that artificial
silk got was when a substitute was
needed because of a shortago of real
silk, brought about by tho govern
ment's demands for cartridge bags,
parachutes and other aeronautical
purposes. Now the manufacture of
this synthetic product has grown to
be a little Industry all its own.
In 1917 $807,318 worth of Amer
ican-made artif iclall silk was dlstrib
uted to all parts of the world. In
