THE STORE GRESHAM A Progressive Store in a Progressive City Is Now Ready for Business As a little introduction to the people of Gresham and vicinity we want to say that this house is connected with the C. C. Stores at Vancouver, Wash., and Oregon City, Ore. Our Goods are bought in the East by a buyer of many years’ experience who goes there and makes his own selections. Our method of doing business in all of these stores is to sell goods for cash and shake this money in the face of the men we buy from. As proof of the the wisdom of our business policy we only ask you to watch our business grow. We have come to Gresham because we believe the people of this vicinity are entitled to a store that is run on modern business principals—that is, a dollars' worth of goods for a dollar. W e will leave it to you to judge whether or not we are giving you such values. W e are going to carry as complete a line of Dry Goods, Notions, Hats, Shoes and Gents burnishing Goods as is possible for us to carry and we hope you will come in and see what we are offering and get our prices. SHOES The Brown, Star 5 Star Shoes, have the style and the wearing qualities combined. We carry these shoes in all our houses and they give absolute satisfaction. By buying in quantities we get them at a price at which we can give our customers a dollars’ worth of shoes for their dollar. Special good values in Ladies’ Shoes, $1.50, $2.00 $2.25 and $2.50 Men’s Shoes, $225, $25o and $3.00 Children’s Shoes, 50c to $150 Infants’ Shoes, 25c; Infants’ kid Moccasins, 10c DRY GOODS GROCERIES In order to carry as many Dry Goods as we want to carry, it will be necessary for us to greatly reduce our grocery stock and we must do it quickly for we now have a house full of goods and more on the way. Prices will be greatly reduced until we can get the grocery stock cut down to about half its present size.
