.17 T Central Point, Jan. 6 Open- tag of their confectionery and (porting goodi store here has been set for noon of January 17, Mr. and Mrs. Jim Ross said, yes terday. Building of the new structure, located on the north side of Pine street near second street, was begun last June and opening of the business has been hampered by material and equip ment shortages. A full line of confections and lunches and home-made pies will be served according to the Rosses. Stools at the Philippine mahogany topped counter ac commodate 12 and booths will handle the same number. The proprietors will also sell maga zines and newspapers. A complete line of sporting goods and athletic equipment will be handled as soon as those items are available. A small line is In stock now. The sporting goods section occupies the left side of the 27 by 36 foot room and the foun tain is on the other. The room Is decorated with stuffed fowl and deer heads and antlers. Panel-work behind the fountain is gumwood. Florescent lighting A pioneer in eternal youth' Th Petsr Pan of the air waves ever as youthful as the com pany it keeps is now entering Its 18th distinguished year. De spite the war, the continuity of the Standard School Broadcast has remained unbroken for al most two decades. We moke bold to me the word "distinguished" because it is the choice of Ohio State Uni versity an institution long alert to developments in educa tion by radio. Ohio State recently gave the Standard School Broadcast "first award as a distinguished educa tional radio program." It is the third time our School Broadcast has won the acclaim of the uni-. Tersity. These recurring awards sug gest that, while a true pioneer, the School Broadcast has noth ing in common with the crystal set, the covered wagon, and the dodo. Rather, it is as ageless as the two elements it brings to gether great music and child hood. Over the) years our purpose has been to help youngsters realize for themselves that great music is as friendly and helpful as the teacher in the classroom. Wo've wanted only to help them meet Mozart and Brttho ven and other musical greats, not as remote super-grownups, but as friends who, like the teacher and the bus-driver, de serve acceptance in their world. To that end our effort always bat been to make the program fresh, eager and child-liked. That's why children in 5,000 Western schools welcome it on Thursday mornings at ten over the NBC network, as a compan ion to me musical studies of the schools themselves, Thati why we hope that, like Peter Pan, it will never grow up. limfJJJlilJjII&a i WANTED TO BUY DOUGLAS FIR POLES and PILING PUGET TIMBER COMPANY Box 566 Central Point, Ore.
