WILLIAMSON'S AT
THE STYLE SHOW
ENTERPRISING DEPARTMENT
STORE CONTRIBUTED LARGE
LY TO SUCCESS OF AFFAIR
Eighteen Living Models Employed to
Exhibit Latest Styles in Ladies'
Wearing Apparel

Williamson is always ready. Nc
matter what the demand or how short
the notice, Williamson is there with
the goods.
The fact that there was to be staged
on Thursday evening at the Fair
grounds a great Style Show of 1916
was brought to the attention of the
House of Williamson for the first time
by the fair management committee on
Wednesday morning about 10 o'clock.
Some firms might have felt this was
short notice. Not so Williamson.
With his splendid regular stock and
with his large force of we'll trained
and stylish looking salespeople, Will
hanson was able to put on in a high
ly finished, artistic, and superb style
the handsomest and most complete
display of representative costumes ev-
er shown in the entire Palouse coun-
try. Every one was astounded by the
magnitude of the display and by the
high quality of models selected from
the regular stock on one days notice.
AS has been proved thousands of
times in the years Williamson has
been doing business in Moscow it is
always Williamson who comes to the
rescue and makes the big hit of every
occasion and insures the success of
every public enterprise in Moscow.
:. Williamson 's.-your store and ours,
did not complain because the time !
was short, did not sulk because he
was afraid somebody else would out
do him. He just got out his goods,
dressed his salespeople up in them, !
took them to the fair grounds, and |
showed the 5000 people present what
the biggest store in the Palouse coun-
trytry is ready to do at moments
notice any day in the year.
That's the Williamson way. Always
the most original ideas, the most en-
ergetic sales people, the best inform
ed directors, and the finest goods that
can be bought anywhere in the coun-
try.
Williamson has got the push. He
always has his nerve with him. He
never gets buffaloed by a hard propos-
ition. You can never take William
son nv surprise
