Town Election Notice. Notice is hereby giv» it, that on Tuesday, the 7th day of Decem ber, 1915, at the town hall in the Town of Gresham, County of Multnomah and State of Oregon, the annual Town Election will be held for the purpose of electing three eonneilmen of said town of Gresham for the ensuing term of two years, which election will be held at 1 o'clock in the afternoon and will continue until 7 o ’clock p. nt. of said day. Dated this 24th day of Novem ber, A D„ 1915. D. M. EGBERTS, Town Recorder. Yet it is surprising how m a n y men are careless about pocket knives —so apt to go along with their old ones, un less reminded of it. A lm ost every day som e of our custo m ers are rem inded by the sight of our display of pocket knives, or perhaps by feeling their old ones in their pockets, th a t they need a new knife. More often th a n n o t, too, they are surprised to find o u r a s s o rt m ent so com plete—so m any styles and sizes— bone h a n d l e s , pearl handles, m e t a l h a n d l e s , wood handles. A nd ranging from tw o- bladed pen k n i v e s to four and six-bladed knives, and som e with screw -driver, cork puller and sm all scissor fittings. M ighty handy for a m an to have.
