The building recently constructed
and occupied by the White Salmon
Valley bank is fine one and would
be a credit to a city of most any size.
It il fitted with the most modern
bank furn ture finished in bard wood
with large open fire place ana Is
large enough to accommodate any
number of patIO Ons that the bank
would expect to be present at any
one time. It has large safe deposit
vault and burglar proof safe. Sltn.
ated on the most prominent corner in
town it gives substantial and pros
porous appearance to our steadily
growing neighbor.

for this season Of the year. Mr. Bal
siger has faith in the prosperous iu-
turo for White Salmon and he is not
alone on his ideas, as most White Sal

White Salmon is a lretty warm
place on a hot day. There Is one
place however, where you can be
made cool We refer to the thirst
quencing factory of II. II. Bowman q
| CO., where you can obtain the cup
that neither CHI ers nor inebriates,
but refreshes. After long drive over
the country roads one of those long
cool life sa ers is boon to mankind.
During his trip to White Salmon
the Glacier man had heart-to- heart
talk with our correspondent, who has
been neglecting his duty somewhat
lately. Although he is busy man,
he assures us that he will do better In
the future and promises to keep VI
informed of the d, ings in the hill
city. If you have anything of inter
est in the way OF news don't keep Il
to yourself. We can tell it to more
people than you can, besides yot
won't have to wear out your voice
just whisper it In the ear of our cor
respondent, X. Fields.
While at White Salmon recently tht
Glacinr man was shaved in the print
ing Office there--a very good shay'
too, by the way. This isn't the 9rs
time however that the Glacier maj
hae been shaved in u printing office
having been in the business ost o
his life he has been getting shavet
there pretty regularly-not however
with razor. Somebody comes in al
most every day with the intention G
shaving him and good many succee
in doing it. We wouldn't be surpris
If Editor Ginder had been shaved
few times this way himself.
