Over one thousand Augusta citi-

attracted by the sheer beauty of the
place, visited the newly opened
Beck-HaZzard shoe store Friday.
keeping a large group Of statesmen
busy throughout the day and fore
ing the management to close their
doors on at least two occasions in
order to handle the trade volume
The people, attracted by the fact that
the new store handles nothing but
Maine-made goods and also by the
fact that 81 buys the highest priced
pair of shoes in the place, showed
their faith in products made in the
Pine Tree State by purchasing 800
pairs of shoes between the hours of
z o'clock in the morning and
o'clock in the afternoon. At that
hour the place was crowded with
purchasers.
The store, which even during the
process of construction, was watched
and admired by citizens of the Capt.
tai City, presented a most artistic
appearance on it's opening day.
Shoes, of all shapes, feathers and
styles were tastefully arranged by a
master decorator in such a way that
the prospective buyer Immediately
picked out the style of shoe he
wished to purchase. The interior of
the store is of stained mission work.

show cases and glass cabinets for the
further display of the goods the

Believes in Maine Products
r. P. Hazard, who has apparently
sold himself to the worthy, purpose
of boosting these products was more
than gratified with the reception ac-
corded his latest store by the "home
folks" After commenting on the cour-
teous treatment accorded him by
other business organizations in this
city, Mr.. Hazard said: THE rese
ponse to our campaign of Maine goods
for Maine people has far exceeded
our expectations and Augusta gave
us the largest Friday business for a
city of it's size that we have ever
had"
Owing to the fact that speed was
required in the remodelling of the
store 1t was necessary to bring to
this city a force of men, trained In
the erection of Hazard stores, all
of which, by the way, are exactly the
same in general appearance and win.

AUGUSTA STORE OF BECK-HAzzARD SYSTEM
ESTABLISHES RECORD FOR SALE ON FIRST DAY

ing for business, one at Poughkeepsie,
and the other at Peekskill. n. Y.
Portland will be the next City in this
state to receive a Hazard store and
this store will be rapidly followed
by two others. one at Lewiston and
the other at Sanford, making cir
cult of six stores in the Pine Tree
State. These stores will all present
the same appearance, the decorating
effects being first tested by an expert
and then diagrammed for the use of
the entire chain. The work in Au-
gusta was done by Ralph Proven
zano, generally considered To be the
best decorator in the organization.
The color scheme was designed by
Mr.. Hazards sister, a miniature
painter of attainment.
Small Sizes For Augusta Women
An interesting fact in the sale of
these shoes was that Bangor, repre-
senting the eastern sections of the
state on the opening day, sold many
Of the kid shoes with low heels for
women's wear, while in Waterville
and Augusta the demand was for
small sizes and patent leather, fan
cy and with high heels.
The natural beauty Of the store
was greatly EXCHANGED Friday by the
many floral offerings. The compli-
mentary gifts of local business or
CARNATIONS and the several depart
ments of the Gardiner factory The
following concerns sent fioewrs
which We're greatly appreciated:
Lasters' Club, roses; Kennebec Jour-
nal, roses; H. G. Barker Co, Carna-
tions; F. E. Davis, roses; Augusta
Trust Co, roses: First National
Granite Bank, roses; Mr.. A. f. Par
rott, sweet peas; Hazard employees
packing and freeing room and stitch
ing room. snap dragons; lasting room
roses: bottoming room, carnations
and finishing room, roses.
The second day of the opening will
begin early this morning. William
Mann who acts in the capacity of
official opener will be here at the
store with his six piece Selfish bag
pipe band and the company hopes
even to eclipse the splendid record
set Friday. Not to be caught UMPIRE
pared the local store is stocked with
shoes originally intended for two
stores, the basement being filled
with shoes which were packed for
the Portland store opening. So the
people attending the .onening today
may do SO in the full knowledge that
they are not taking second choice
the stock of the two stores being
sufficient to meet another record de-
mand.
