The New York Store Reception

Wednesday was the date set for the
semi.annual opening of the New York
store and while the weather was
slightly unfavorable yet there was a
large crowd attended and all were
delighted at the showing made. The
managers of the store report that over
a thousand souvenirs were given
away and that means that there was
large crowd during the afternoon
and evening.
All day Monday and Tuesday Mr..
Hoffman, an expert decorator, assist
ed by Mr.. Winthrop, manager of the
store, we're busy getting ready for the
opening and the result was one OF the
prettiest displays ever shown in lola.
Fine dress goods and novelties and
the many articles usually found in an
up.tO. date department store were ar
tistically arranged over the room and
the effect was pleasing. The windows
of the store were highly decorated
also, the north one being made to
show the "maze" effect by the use of
mirrors.
During the afternoon and evening
an orchestra rendered music which
made every visitor wish that the
store would have openings oftener.
The opening was a grand success
and the proprletors are we'll pleased
at the interest taken by the people of
lola.
