Fine Christmas Windows
Proportionate to the size of the city
and the population of the valley one
would have to travel far to find a city
with finer Christmas show widows than
those of Hood River. Especially at
tractive are the grocery windows of
the Consolidated Mercantile Co., Perigo
and Kaesser's, the displays evidencing
care and taste on the part of the dec
orators. Cram has windows that are especially
attractive with Christmas offerings,
and the big windows of the Paris Fair
are filled with tempting articles. The
Eliot block, the whole Tower floor front
takn up with the windows of the Franz
Hardware and Furniture Company.per
haps create more interest than any
others of the city. The fine display of
toys send the youngsters into ecstasies,
while exhibits of other windows are
just as tempting to the elders.
The store of Pat Lind3ey has taken
on its annual Christmas time -decora
tion and cheer. The decorations here
were made by Cecil Lafferty.
The city's drug store windows are
especially attractive at this time.
Vanderbilt Fears Damage
After an examination of his orchard
Monday Oscar Vanderbilt expressed
the fear that a heavy freeze later in
the year may cause serious damage to
Hood River apple trees.
"I find the sap rising in the trees,"
says Mr. Vanderbilt. "Our late fall
and winter so far have been as warm
as springtime, and vegetation is as far
advanced as late March. I have Shasta
daisies blooming and. my raspberry
bushes are green. I found new growth
on some honeysuckle vines that was
several inches in length."
Patrons Asked to Help Rural Carriers
Postmaster Reavis has issued an an
nouncement to the patrons of rural
free deliveries, asking that they call
at the postoffice when in the city for
heavy packages that they may be ex
pecting. The recent heavy rains have
made part of the roads traversed by
the carrieis almost impassable. One
carrier, Ole Nelson, of Delivery No. 1,
because of the washout of the Hood
river steelbridge, has to travel double
his usual distance in delivering his
mail.

town of Dee had made the record of
