KORN BAKERY TO
BE SO YEARS OLD
ON NEXT MONDAY

The II. Korn baking company,
operating plants in the tri-cities,
will on Monday observe the 50th
anniversary of the establishment OF
the concern.
Back in 1868 a sturdy pioneer,
whose vision was bread and whose
strength and temper was that OF a
man who could see things through,
took over a little bakery on Harri-
son street and Pretzel alley in Dav-
export, then known as the Pacific
bakery.
With -four selling at $40 barrel,
if one had the SO. and customers
few and far between, this man and
his wife took up the task 20 cen
turtles old-of baking bread for a
hungry populace.
Henry Korn and his wife opened
the little bakery in 1868. Today
five baking plants stand as credit
to their efforts to supply a humble
community with bread.
During those early days little
bread was delivered. Customers
came to the store to supply their
breadmaker, yeast dispenser and
cracker manufacturer, trade natur-
ally went TO the best bakery.
Customers in these early days
brought their own baskets, or care
fully preserved cloth sacks, for
their bakery goods When paper
sacks were first introduced Mr..
Korn and his wife would spend the
early evening hours making sacks
for the next days use. After that
they would knead the dough, bake
the bread, make a few deliveries,
wait on the rapidly growing list of
customers then if any time remain
ed. they were free to turn in and
rest.
Mr.. Korn bought one of the first
delivery wagons used in the tri-
cities by a baker. 1t was a con-
vertible body model that could be
used as a delivery wagon during the
week, and changed into a carry-all
on Sunday
When compressed yeast was first
introduced, the Vienna, formerly
the Pacific bakery, got the agency
for Iowa
When bread making machinery
came into the market Mr.. Korn got
a machine. From that time on the
inventors and manufacturers of
machinery that would improve
bread, and facilitate the work OF
baking, were not far in advance of
MIR. Korn for he kept pace with
them and bought any appliance or
machine that would help build his
business.
AS the business grew the room at

Later a building was erected at 321
Harrison street, but even this, in
time was inadequate to handle the
increased trade.
During these years little sons
were. born to Mr.. and Mrs. korn
and drew into husky helpers around
the bakery. Three generations have
been bakers or helpers in the re-
tail store of the firm.
When, the plant on Harrison
street was outgrown the old high
school building on Sixth and Main
streets was acquired, converted in

equipped with every new device and

bakeries were opened at Rock Is

ceive thorough education are abundant.
Parks, recreation centers, are numerous.
Diversion and amusement are not far to
seek. In many parts of these three cities
are beautiful residence sections conven-
lent to the different sources of work. And
among the people living here spirit of
loyalty and cohesion is noticeable, pride
in civic advancement, as we'll as a cheeri-
ness and buoyancy of disposition, which
undoubtedly arise in large measure from
attractiveness of environment
The plentifulness of work here in this
mercantile center, will always remain Sc
cure. Our factories, shops, stores will al

In fact, even the very cessation of the

and truly necessary one-is to build the
real home, that which is your own!
We fully realize that many obstacles
towards homecoming may confront yoIl.
And not the leasbamong these is the cost
of obtaining your home. One way, of
course, is to buy house alreadybuilt, but
this is impractical for all of you, consider
ing the comparatively few houses for sale.
The cheaper, more efficient, more salts
factory way is to build your own home.
Doing this you can be sure of the quality
of your materials, the strength of con-
struction, the beauty of northumberland

be reasonable.
1t may sound little startling to you to
be told that here in the Tri-Cities is an in

country's best architects, combining beau
ty of appearance, stability of con-
struction, and comfortable arrangement
When you buy Gordon-Van Tine home
you can know before building exactly
what it will look like when finished.
Every last detail is specified in the plans
and has its proper place in the completed
house. Choose the house that appeals to
you, note its low cost and realize that the
cost is guaranteed-you get the complete
house at the price stated; there are abso-
lutelyno extras to pay for.
What an advantage over haphazard
building! 1t is just as if you were buying
house already built that you could see,
feel inspect rigidly only you know your
home will be new, with materials of sound
quality and long-lived staunchness. No
worry over chow it will look, +" "what kind
