A huge " ta t levels off what was once a
worthless piece of property and fills in a
worthless hole and J B L iber announces that
more of thit work will be done a ro u n d his
property.
William Keeler announced at council meet­
ing that J B. Laber would soon a nnounc e the
dedicating of several streets through his
property.
T h e city council committee on streets is
instructed by the m.iyor to make a report at
the next meeting on the most urgent work
necessary on the streets.
T h e council appoints M B H a r v e y as city
engineer to start work on .1 complete map of
the city of Cascade Locks.
T h e banker of a nearby town, wh o has
shown little interest in Cascade Locks, remarks
th.it the city will have to start thinking about
a sewage sysem.
These and other "signs of the times" show
that Casc ade Locks is stirring itself a n d will
be ready to receive industry when industry
arrives
R K C O G N I/JN G T H E BUSINESS M EN
Cascade Locks citizens .ire public-spirited
an has been shown on m.iny occasions during
the last few months.
But business houses in the community are
deserving of special recognition. It has often
been recognized that the progressive firm is
the one that advertised the firm that tells
the public what is h a s to offer in services and
merchandise.
M a n y C as c a d e Locks firms
have shown this progressive attitude during
the past months by their advertising in the
Chronicle.
Among these high class establishments is
C h a p m a n s Food Store, known throughout
the Mid Columbia area for the finest in staple
ami fancy groceries.
Some especially fine
bargains lire listed by this store in its a d v e r ­
tisement in this week's Chronicle. T h e n there
is Amoth H a rd w ar e. I his firm keeps a stink
of goods in a tremendous variety, and all first
class merchandise.
The size of the stink
carried by Amoth would do credit to many
communities much larger than Cascade Locks.
Another hrm to which local residents point
with pride is the M e n s Sh op

Portland newspapers this past week righ t­
fully raised their voices against the national
broadcast of Jay Franklin, "close friend of
President Roosevelt.
Franklin s "facts are easily explained. O n
his tour of the Northwest, he w as for a time
accompanied bv the fact-overlooking pcrsonal-
pubhcitv seeking Richard Neuberger.
Neu-
berger also was the "personal escort" of
Jim Mar sha l when the latter viewed the
Coulee and Bonneville dams.
Following
the tour Marshal wrote that socalled expose
of the Bonneville "Dam of Doubt."
And so when we hear Jay Franklin we
cannot help but hear Jim M arshall and his

Housewives of the Mid-Columbia, wh o
scan the tall advertisements in the Portland
dailies, picturing merchandise which looks nice
in pictures, would do well to do a little re aso n­
ing before being tempted to grab the bait.
Th ough fall advertising of department
stores this year emphasize price values,
whereas once styles and new effects were
sufficient to beckon the customers, the old
law still holds good that the customer gets
what she pays for.
It is follv to think that the Portland stores,
where rent and overhead costs reach such
astounding figures could sell merchandise
cheaper than the merchants in the old home
town
Quality and dependability of goods w not
such an item with the big merchandise boys.
It thev lose a customer, they will hoodwink
another one later on with the "wo nderful
buvs that the purchaser regrets obtaining
after the newness of the articles begins to
wear off.
Next to talking over his business worries at
home the biggest nuivtnce is the man who
