THE SPOKANE WOMAN
Arend Prepares for Anniversary Celebration

downtown district. In 1889, not
daunted, Mr.. Arend opened store on
Second and Post in temporary
shack. From there he moved in 1891
to the northwest corner of First and
Howard, a location which he kept for
IL years. "Many of the same people
who did business with US in those days
are our customers STILL" Mr.. Arend
said. He sold l.. NJ. Davenport his
first case of eggs for the opening of
the first Davenport restaurant. Bust
ness was so good that the second day
he bought five cases.
There was no refrigeration in those
days and people thought nothing OF
seeing meat in carcasses, quarters OF
beef and half dozen lambs, hung
outside meat market exposed to the
dust and the open air. In hot weather
meat was chilled with ice. Five or
six tons was brought in regularly
twice a week.
Mr.. Arend moved to his present loca-
ton in 1923. He has associated with
him in business now his son, Albert
Arend. Besides the No. l market, they
operate three retail stores and
wholesale department. One at 925
First Avenue, one at Westlake's, and
one on the seventh floor OF CulDert-
sons.
Mr.. Arend has no patience with the
man who cannot see the splendid fu-
ture in store for Spokane. He be-
lieves that the boys of today who pin
their faith to Spokane will have
great future.
The Spokane woman. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1921-1935, 1927-09-08

Spokane women were delighted at
the trend of fashion exhibited in Spo-
kane last Thursday and Friday at the
Autumn Fashion Tea of the Crescent
held in its auditorium. Beautifully dec
Grated for the occasion it proved a
real fashion center, the charming
young models carefully selected to
suitably display the very feminine
styles toward which fashion trends
this season. No more the Garconne
silhouette. Enough of the fashion
wherein all women look alike!
In the first place skirts are longer.
There is lovely oval curve that gives
beautiful lifting movement. Feminine
fabrics must be used, too, to give the
new soft womanly look to figures that
can not all at once recover from the
straight line. That is why velvet will
play such an Importance in the mode.
Paris says that every woman must
have at least one velvet dress in her
winter wardrobe. The Crescent showed
them in a variety of colors in mod
crate prices. Black, of course, always
seems to lead the style but every
smart winter color is to be found with
soft lustres so becoming to every type
of face and form.
Beautiful coats trimmed with still
more beautiful furs, were worn by the
graceful Crescent models with such
verve as to make every woman wish
hard for "A new coat. There is no one

CRUISING THE MEDITERRANEAN
BY MARGARET PAINE

from across the empty cloister-adjoin
ing rooms containing 1t, Leonardo Iii
Vinci's "The Last Supper" is most awe
inspiring and impressive. The COM
position of the whole with the open
windows framing Lombard scenery
give a depth of perspective. Though
the colors are faded and dimmed, no
CODY gives the true idea of life and
lighting still contained in the original.
The Old Castle of Milano or Cas-
tellO Sforesco which was occupied sue
cessively by the Visconti and the
Sforza is extremely picturesque with
its battlements and turrets. The moat
is now dry and grass filled and the
drawbridges no longer are raised and
lowered, but it is not hard to imagine
armored knights riding through the
stone entrance with its carved stone
coat of arms. The castle now houses
important medieval museums and
various schools of music and dramat-
les.
In the afternoon we explored on foot,
looking into fascinating shops and
peering into churches. The Galleria
Vittorio Emanuele ii connecting the
Piazza del Duomo with the Piazza
della Scala is huge glass-cOvered
arcade containing bright shops and
busy cafes where afternoon refresh
ment was being enjoyed by many. The
most exclusive shops were located here
we soon discovered from inquiring
prices of articles on sale. At one of
the cafes we ordered ice cream and
much to our disappointment discov-
cred that italian and American ice
creams are quite different.
In the evening almost the entire
party attended the opera at Theatre
ALA Scala. No one was allowed to
occupy the lower floor seats unless
dressed in evening clothes and also it
seemed necessary to divest oneself of
ones wrap before entering. At least
two highly estimable elderly women of
our group engaged in a heated Eng
lish-Italian argument over the situa-
ton and finally American persistence
triumphed over Italian temper.
Toscanini was directing and the
opera was Arrigo BoitO's "Nerone."
Stupendous musical climaxes a splen-
did chorus and exceptionally fine stag
ing and lighting effects made the eve
ming most enjoyable. The only mar
ring feature was lack of knowledge of
the Italian language. Not only was
deprived of the pleasure of knowing
what was going on through four acts
but also this ignorance added not a
little to the tendency to nod bit after
busy day out-of-doors.

MILAN, ITALY

Situated in the fertile Pc valley,
Milan, with nearly million inhabi-
tants, is one of the busiest and wealth
lest cities of Italy. The day and night
activity on the street on which our
hotel was located, helped us to realize
the busy state of the Lombard capitol.
We could agree with the statements
of the Italian GuideboOk which said
that "The circulation movement is i'm
portant. There are over 10000 auto
mobiles in circulation. Steam and
electric railways, autobus, tramways
and aerial conveniences connect the
town with the suburbs and other i'm
portant centers."
The Piazza del Duomo was our first
objective. Here we beheld the great
Cathedral Of Milan, second in size
among European churches to st.
Peters at Rome and the Cathedral at
Seville only. The cleaning white
marble of the exterior with its hun
dreds of delicate spires and its two
thousand finely carved statues is I'M
believably beautiful. The Gothic plan
of the interior, though the Cathedral
was started in 1886 and worked upon
through the time of Napoleon /, thus
passing under the hands of many archi-
tects, is most harmonious and inspir-
ing. The nave and aisles unlike those
of the Seville Cathedral, afford an I'M
broken vista of great impressiveness
the full length of the Cathedral. The
numerous stained glass windows are
among the most beautiful in the world.
All but three are composed of series
of small figures and scenes made of
tiny pieces of wonderfully colored
glass. Screening protects some of the
oldest windows which have become
thin from exposure to the elements.
To better appreciate the exquisite
detail of the exterior of the Cathedral
a climb to the roof is necessary. Later
In the day we made the ascent up the
many stairs and had splendid view
of the snow-capped Alps, the Lom-
hardy plain and the city of Milan. 1t
is possible to walk the full length of
the roof and study the carving at
closer range. The pinnacles are topped
by marble figures and the lower fill
gree-like work at regular intervals Is
decorated with white marble sun
flowers, daisies, pumpkins and other
varieties of flowers and fruit
From the Cathedral we drove to the
Church of Santa Maria Della Grazie,
an abbey church of the XVIII cen
fury, partly the work of Bramante. II
is not for the rundown church itself
but for the covering of one wall OF
the refectory, that we stopped. Viewed

DEMANDS WITHDRAWAL or |
TROOPS FROM NICARAGUA |

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan. 4.-The
International Labor Defense branch
here has passed resolution con-
demning the action of the United
States government In the Nlcara-
guam invasion and calls for the inn
mediate withdrawal of the troops
from that country. A copy Of the
resolution was sent to Sen. Borah,
chairman Of the senate committee
on foreign relations.
I'VE believe that the landing Of
troops In Nicaragua is exceedingly
ill-advised and without ample
cause" says the resolution, "and
that the great mass Of the American
people are not In accord with the
imperiallstle policy OF our coun-
try. Therefore, the Columbus local
Of the international Labor Defense,
whose purpose is the furthering Of
the interests OF the working class,
enters an emphatic protest against
the continued presence Of armed
American troops In Nicaragua and
