THE STLYE OPENING
FINE WEATHER IS BRINGING OUT
LARGE CROWDS.

The Spring Opening, which began
, Tuesday and lasts throughout the
week, and spring weather went hand
in hand in giving the inhabitants
and visitors of Oskaloosa as rare Il
treat as it has been their pleasure to
experience. The window decorations
in all the latest colors in the wearing
apparel consisting of hats, coats.
suits, evening and sport dress, hos
iery, gloves and shoes made a grand
er display than has ever been in the
stores OF Oskaloosa.
The inside decorations have struck
the note of response in the hearts of
many women with their strongly ap-
pealing Spring display. Flowers and
palms were used throughout the
stores and in many places one or two
color schemes were carried out very
beautifully.
In the tailored suits they are OF
strictly tailored design, having semi
fitting coats and skirts in modified
barrel lines. Serges, gsbarlines, taft.
eta, silk Jersey, satin and mohair in
blues, green's, grays, gold and black
offer variety that is very easy to
choose from
The spring skirt that is best for all

the straight line models. a.,

in fabrics and colors so varied as to
meet every individual taste and re.

OF the hats this season, enough can
not be said of the shapes, colors and
trimmings displayed in the windows
of the various shops. The colors are
very similar to those carried out in
waists, suits and dresses.
The shoes, gloves and neckwear
departments also come in for their
share of special mention
1t requires great deal of time.
work and skill to completely change
these stores from winter sales room
to one from which spring looks forth
from every shelf and counter and the
patrons OF these different stores most
assuredly appreciate all the efforts put
forth in making this great change and
in making this the most beautiful
spring opening.
