Work In the shop has progressed about as usual during January, with a decrease In cash sales and ah In crease in tiie number of donations. On January 14 tho manager went to. Ashland to see Mis. McNair about having a drive in Ashland for clothes for the shop. She thought it would be possible nnd agreed to superintend one , sometime In March. . ' A lndy from Gold Hill said she thought she would be able to 'gather up some things there for us. - It was found necessary to havo two more clothes racks mado and to buy sevoral dozen more coat hangers, in ,ordor to display properly the goods In the' shop. This mnkes a wonderful improvement In the. appearance of the shop, and tho euso with which the goods can be -handled.. .--! The catholic ladles arc very kindly making two quilts for tho shop. The prices asked ipr goods sold in January were , generally lower than for several months previous. There were three special sales dur ing January, a hat sale at reduced prices, one a surprise package sale, whore we did up a number of pack ages with various articles which were usefcl, but were not moving very fast, and charged ten cents per packftgo for any of them.' This proved popular and so will have another soon. ' We also had a two day sale, where we gave away any winter hat In the shop, to anyone purchasing one dol lars worth of goods. This, too, was successful. A veryi -nice display of garments and hats remodeled In the shop was prepared for a Chamber of Commerce luncheon In Februry; then found It had been postponed indefinitely.
