SKIP SUBSIDY IS NECESSARY
(Scrlppi News Association)
Washington. D. C. April 15 A state
ment was submitted in the house today
by Alfred Winsor of the Boston Steam
ship Company, which says that unless
government aid is extended to his comp
any they will be competed to haul down
the flag and go into dry dock or sell to
foreigners. "American ship owners," he
said, "Who try without government aid
to compete with subsidzed foreign craft,
comit financial suicide." Former Con
gressman Loud declared that Spreckle's
line, from San Francisco to Australia will
be abandoned and placed under Japanese
management if subsidy fails, bill fails.

CORA KING SWAIN IN THE TITLE ROLE OF
"LA BELLE MARIE"
AT STEWARD'S THEATRE TONIGHT
' Scene from
'LA BELLE MARIE" . ' ,
AT THE THEATRE
The largest house of their irtjagement,
w itnessed the Swain Ca's. scenic pro
duction of "In Sight of St. Paul's." . This
p lay is conceded one of the strongest
melo-dramas ever written and was
splendidly handled by the Swain Co.
Miss Swain, as "Aileen" played a most
difficult role in a most finished manner
and was most capably supported by Mr.
Fanning, and the balance of the cast,
Miss Collins as "The Panther" appeared
in a new role which she handled in a
most capable manner. Tonight the great
soceity play "LaBellt Marie" holds the
boards, on which occassion all ladies at
tending the performance will receive a
souvenir photograph of Miss Cora King
Swain, the clever and versatile leading
lady with this Company.

WHY
La Grande People Should Take Vinol,
Mr. Newlin of the Newlin Drug Co.
says, "We do not believe there is a man,
woman or child in La Grande whom our
famous cod liver oil preparation. Vinol,
will not benefit at this season of the
year.
We believe there is no need for so many
people to drag around run-down, tired
out and debilitated, or for old people to
remain weak and infirm when we guar
antee Vinol will restore health and
strength."
Continued Mr. Newlin: "For centuries
cod liver oil has been recognized as the
grandest of all bodv-buildmir aosnta tnr
wasted human strength and vitality, but
on account of the heavy, nauseating and
system-clogging oil which enveloped its
curative properties few could take it with
any benefit
In Vinol you get in a concentrated form
every one of the curative and streneth-
creating elements of cod liver oil actually
taken from fresh cods' livers, and without
a drop of oil to upset the stomach and
retard its work.
Vinol is not a patent medicine, and you
know what vou are taking, as vrvthinr
- ' 4
it contains is named on the back label of
every bottle.
Vinol is guaranteed by over two
thousand of the leading druggists of the
United States to create strength fcr old
people, for the run-down, tired, and de
bilitated, weak, sickly women and child
ren, and after a severe sickness.
We ask every person in La Grande
who hav hacking coughs, chronic colds
throat and bronchial troubles, to try
Vinol on our guarantee. It costs nothinff
if it fails."
