OREGON RETAIL
JEWELLERS ARE HERE
Business Sessions HEIDI Close
With Banquet and Pro-
gram Tonight

The second days session of the
Oregon Retail Jewellers opened with
an address at the Commercial club by
Walter A. Denton, secretary Oregon
Retail Groeers' and Merchants asso.
citation.
In his talk, Mr.. Denton took the
stand that the retailer must not over
look the human element with his EN-
|plOyes as well as the public and that
the modern retailer must do his share
in building up his community and com
munity4 life. 1t was the duty of a mer-
chant to so conduct his business as to
build up his community, he said, and
to keep business at home rather than
to conduct it in such manner that
his home folks would support mail or
der houses built on inferior merchan.
disc and through Misrepresentation.
He also urged that retailers should
be free from such an indirect tax on
the public as trading stamps and free
gifts wherein the public always final
ly pays in full. He claimed that the
lHVIcIidHb IS lebily lne pdchDoHe VI u
community and that he was the first to
be solicited and the first to give for
the advance of local affairs.
This afternoon at 2 O'Clock, Milton
A. Miller United States revenue col
lector, delivered an address on the spe-
cial tax to which jewellers are subject
'and giving general information as to
how this tax affects the business man.
AT 1880 O'Clock this evening the din
ing room Of the Marion. hotel will be
thrown open for a dinner dance given
in honor of the visiting jewellers, with
"a program as follows.
