LAY OUT A FLOWER GARDEN
We note in the correspondence from
Mosier this week that several of the
enterprising cltlsena of the neighbor
ing town are employing the winter
days making preparations for way
side flower gardens with which . to
greet motor tourists over the highway
this spring and summer. Our neigh
bors have set an example that all of
ns here may well follow.
Every
home should have its flower garden.
The work will repay us in toughened
muscles and whetted appetites and
the joy that corn«« from watching
one'a own garden grow and blossom
is exceedingly satisfying.
Plant many flower gardens. They
will have an appeal for our motor
tourist visitors. But even though no
visitor ever sets eyes on them they
will be more than worth while as
an inspiration to ourselves.
Everfast suitings and voiles, new crepes, new prints, new draperies.
We have, never had a more pleasing showing and we’re sure you’ll like
them "with dainty, neat, novel, attractive colorings that are'guaranteed
to stay. It will make your Spiring sewing a pleasure and satisfaction.
Come in and see them and make your selections.
Now is a good time to do your spring sewing and we have a won
derful assortment of new Spring goods from which to do your choosing.
Come in and see what a fine assortment we have and our prices are
always the lowest.
