There Are Stores In This City
So Good That They Could Use
Twice As Much Advertising Space
AS They Now Use---And
Make 1t Pay!

THE BETTER THE STORE THE BET
TER THE ADV ERTISING PAYS. Your own
observations in this store-world will confirm this
truth.
PUBLICITY is bad only for a bad PROPOSE
ton 1t is just surely good for good one.
What IS good store?" One that really
SERVES THE PUBLIC protecting its patrons
as to VALUES not merely as to PRICES.
There many stores in this city answering
to that definition completely. In every city there
always stores that do not.
An important phase of GOOD STORES
SERVICE TO ITS PATRONS is its newspaper
advertising. This should be complete, frank in
forming. 1t should tell the store-news as fully as
good newspaper tells the news of the day.
Perhaps the best possible NEW POLICY for
the GOOD stores of this city to adopt would be
that of DOUBLING THE ADVERTISING
. SPACE THAT THEY USE-thus giving them
"elbow-room;' giving them bigger opportunities
for telling their patrons, in detail about every sell
ing event, about every bargain offering about every
dollars worth of new stocks. OF course, even
HALF ENOUGH ADVERTISING pays the
really good store; but ADEQUATE ADVERTIS-
ING would pay much better.

the wheat to the river

ALL ARE URGED TO ATTEND
TAX MEETING DECEMBER 4
TENTATIVE BUDGET OF Ex.
PENSEs FOR NEXT YEAR
TO BE DISCUSSED.

The business men and taxpayers oi
Pendleton are urged TO attend the
meeting of taxpayers to be held at the
court house on December 4 for the
purpose OF discussing the tentative
budget of expenses for the next year
as prepared by the county court. The
Commercial association will try to
get out a representative delegation
from the city.
At the meeting OF the association
last evening w. l.. Thompson called
attention to the meeting which, he
said. was in no sense political and
which was not called for the purpose
Of critlcizing the county court but
rather TO advise 1t of the taxpayers
wishes The expenditures of the
county for the past ten years will be
analyzed by Robert Smith OF the Tax
Reform League he said and the dis
cussion will be intended TO help low
er the taxes.
Mr. Thompson's own idea was that
Pendleton business men should urge
the Improvement OF the roads be-
tween this city and the west end Of
the county rather than continuing the
work in the east end.
Makes Road Appropriation.
The association last evening au-
thorized the expenditure Of 500 to-
ward improving the road on the res
ervatlon used by Mckay creek farm
ers. President Tallman stated that
he had been approached by Dick Ad.
ans and Joe Hubbard, farmers of
that community, with an appeal for
financial assistance in improving the
road The county court, he said. had
helped build a bridge. although the
road is on the reservation, and the
farmers themselves had done consid-
cradle work on the road but now
needed about 800 worth of powder
for blasting. Mr. Tallman stated
that he had ordered powder for them
and he asked the association to en-
dorse his action. With the road in
It's present condition, Mr.. Tallman
stated that many of the farmers are
going to Pilot Rock rather than COM
Ing to Pendleton to do their trading.

TWO NEW INDUSTRIES SEEK TO
LOCATE BUSINESS IN PENDLETON

Pendleton as the location of the
Empire Manufacturing Co. and OF
a combined harvester factory was the
prospect presented by two PROPOSE
tions that came before the CONNER
cial association at its regular meeting
last evening. The proposition from
the Empire company was different
from the one presented several weeks
ago and the contingent conditions
have been so modified that there
seems a strong possibility of the fac
tory being located here.
Charles Xix. one Of the representa-
tives of the company, submitted the
proposition in person. He declared
his company and the Pendleton Iron
Works stood ready to consolidate and
capitalize for S125.O0O and that they
would ask local people to subscribe
for only $4,000 worth OF stock in
stead Of $4,000 as originally propos-
ed. The Empire Co. would ask for
only 40 per cent of the total stock.
thus leaving the control to Pendleton
capital A portion of this $4,000 has
already been promised, he stated.
The Empire Manufacturing Co.
controls 16 patents but its principal
inventions are pump of increased
efficiency, an iceless refrigerator and
a wood split pulley. 1t has been
manufacturing these articles for sew
eral years and Mr. Xix claimed a
market had been established for them
already without any advertising or ex
ploitation such that only about ten
per cent of the orders can be filled
with the present factory facilities in
Spokane

has and the machinery at the local
foundry and the addition of a limited !
