Newspaper Page Textf HOOD RIVER GLACIER, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1917 "IF IT COMES FROM CRAM'S IT'S ALL RIGHT!" vmwL Tl t and. A. Cram is win conmMie:SGu goiig to stay k Hood' River mg oily best merchandi Ladies' "Furnishings" Dozens of items hard-to-get-on-account-of-the-war, many of them so necessary to Milady's correct dressing-and happi ness, have recently been received and are now displayed here. While price is secondary to availability yet we are able to make buyers substantial savings even in some of these items. Automobile Veils Altogether new -heavy silk chiffon very large sizes, beau tifully hemstitched, and they come in a large range &t C of most attractive colors. Very special p 1 JU Mesh Veilings and Chiffons by the yard in nearly all colors, at prices from rd 19c to 58c Hosiery Mere metion of just two or three items: New silks in white and black, very good weight, reinforced heel and d OO toe, extra strong elastic garter top, special at 9l0J A splendid silk lisle semi-fashioned white hose 48c Special offering of black seamless hose at ...23c Misses' fine ribbed mercerized black hose at 38c Modish Neckwear Strictly new and up-to-date Neckwear, direct to us from New York's best makers, exquisite designs in separate collars and collar and cuff sets. Dainty sheer snowy white lawns and voiles. The littlest of prices - 33c, 48c, 69c Fur for Trimming If you are making a dress or a coat you will probably want some fur trimming. But this fall fur is rather expensive ex cept here. We are fortunate in being able to supply fur trim ming in white and colors at a full third less than the large city stores are asking. Purses, Toilet Cases and Cretonnes New sanitary waterproof toilet-cases of fancy cretonnes, containing wash cloths, at 18c, 28c and 33c Pretty new patterns in cretonnes for making shopping bags, work bags and toilet cases. Light and dark for- QQ est and floral effects, celebrated Colonial fabrics, the yd OOC A convenient combination Purse and Card Case with hand strap is just received. Fine grained black leather, neatly lined IT has been rumored that Cram's Store was go ing out of business, or going to remove from Hood River. This is an error which we are glad to correct. This store has no thought of discon tinuing. In fact, preparations are right now un der way for bigger businessbuilt on the solid foundation established in this city 17 years ago. We are, however, operating along an improved plan: CRAM QUALITY MUST BE MAINTAINED as usual, but PRICE MOST TOUCH LOWEST LEVEL at all times. If a recognized regular profit would say "35c" our new plan says "28c." If $10 would ordinarily be marked on a price ticket, our quick-sale-small-profit-plan quotes $7.92. That's the new method in a nutshell, and it's a sure winner. . . . New Fall Goods are rapidly coming in and as they arrive are being placed imme diately "on sale" by the plan outlined above. 92c Ready-to -Wear Coats, Skirts and Waists The reputation we have long enjoyed for carrying fashionable apparel is a source of considerable pride to us. The Fall of 1917 will only strengthen that position for we are constantly in receipt of express packages of distinctly new. garments from America's best makers. We have just received from Philadelphiathe "home of high class waists" a most beautiful line of new blouses. They are enthusiastically pronounced the prettiest waists ever shown in Hood River and not the least attractive feature is that there are no two alike in the entire gathering of over 200 garments. Ladies may make their selections knowing there will not be another garment in the city like hers. Georgette and Crepe de Chine Silks in White and Colors. (See window d0 00 n.iTnrl MO A display.)
