Offices in Imperial
Due to kindness of Phil Metscham,
temporary offices of the Bonneville
Dam Celebration to be held in Cas
cade Locks the first four days in
July have been established in the
Imperial hotel. Portland.
The offices were opened there
Monday and during the week work
has been done on advertising the
celebration, and various committees
have been working from the head
quarters. The Imperial hotel is lo
cated in the very center the Portland
business district and is very popular
with eastern Oregon people.
Life takes some funny twists and
turns. Three years ago \V. J. Carlson,
proprietor of the Red & White store,
was idle and could find no work. He
and Mrs. Carlson owned the prop
erty where they live, opposite the
Oregon-Washington fox farm on the
highway, and they concluded to
create a job by establishing a grocery
store. They built the building they
now occupy and stocked it with
groceries. Business grew steadily form
the first and Mr. Carlson ceased to
worry about work. With the building
of the dam and the steady growth of
Cascade Locks, the grocery business
has gained momentum and today the
Red & White is doing an excellent
business throughout the Bonneville
dam area.
Birthdays o f Mrs. Jansen Herman
and Alex McEchern were celebrated
at a delightful dinner at Penn's T a v
ern Tuesday night. Those present
were Mrs. J. A. McEchern, Mrs. H.
and Jansen Herman. All are from
D. Bracken, Mrs. .Alex McEchern
J. A. McEchern, president of the
Seattle. Mr. McEchern is a son of
General Construction company.

ELECTRIC SERVICE
Applications for light or power service left at the
Andrews store in Cascade 1-ocks will receive our
prompt attention. Thus makes it unnecessary for
people on the Oregon side of the river to visit our
office in Stevenson. If you have any complaint«,
make them at the Andrew« «tore. You may pay your
light and power bill« there, too. We pick up order»
or applications every day.
