Bazaar Acclaimed Big Success
Bob Henry, chairman of the
Sidewalk Bazaar, said sometime
ago that he hoped the event
would be the best promotion that
Hennncr ever had.
After two days of the fun-
filled Bazaar Friday and Sat
urday at which a carnival spirit
prevailed, mercnants ana snop.
rcrs alike were almost unani
mous in their opinion that his
hope had come true.
Hundreds of shoppers braved
the hot sun to take part, includ
ing both Heppnerites and out-of-town
visitors, and merchants
reported excellent response to
their sales of bargain Items.
Organizations, too, swelled
their treasuries for church, civic
and community projects from
proceeds of their sales and
booths.

In almost every case, the

us look like a latter-day Hoot

Dave was braver and made
the trip bareheaded and in short
