a six days birthday sale sale which
is proving one of the successes that

Looking back over the four years
that the company has been engaged
IN business in Walla Walla, Manager
Hooper said yesterday that every year
has seen the company's business grow
by leaps and bounds. What success
the MOtter- Wheeler company has met
with since its establishment in
Walla Walla I believe has been due
TO the cOmpany's policy of always
keeping abreast of the times and meet

cnssing trade conditions yesterday

AS to the outlook for this seasons
business l can say that despite the
fact that a presidential election year
is always looked upon as a dampener
to trade. conditions in Walla Walla
ana in fact all over Eastern Washing

there is every prospect of big crops.
