The atory has to do with a little nurse in a children's hospital, and wonderful fairy stories. Many of the scenes were filmed in the children's hospital and the picture was shown to the children immediately upon its completion the first time that many of the little unforunatos had ever seen a motion picture.

He is twenty-six years old and weighs 175 pounds. He Ihas been in several nteresting matches in 1917. Winning over Jack Kennedy, Eddie O'Connell, Buck Hartmaiu Beating Tony Ajax in Los Angeles last Spring am! getting draws with Walter Miller, world's champion middleweight, and John Borg, who is well known here. In meeting Jack O'Neill he will have one of the toughest matches of his career. Wrestling with O'Neill will be equal to taking a post grad uate course. If there are any holds in the wrestling repertoire that he is not familiar with, he will probably know them by heart after working with him. Good pictures, good preliminaries, good music in connection with main bout make a well balanced program for tomorrow night. Mr. Thye goes from here to Hous ton, Tex., where he is matched with Pete Brown, well known1 Eastern wrestler. Summerville News North Powdor, Ore., July 18, 1917. (Special) The Portland papers are printing the story that this part of the dry farming section is burned out and that the farmers will not be able to stay on their places this year. It is true that the continued drought has hurt the crops a great deal the same as it has all over; but we wish to state that there are several pieces of fall grain that will make a fair crop and some of the spring grain will make 'some grain- but not a full crop by any means. Fall rye will make a good crop and spring rye will make part of a crop. It is true that the crops are 'bad enough but we do not like to see conditions made to appear any worse than they really are. A num ber of the crop reports sent out are by people living in town who gather up what they can from hearsay and send it in as authentic crop reports. It is also reported that farmers are leaving their homesteads and going to work. This has been done by most ot the farmers in the dry belt ever since bhev have taken up their ranches. They go to work on the other ranches and help out in haying and harvest and find all they can do at- good wages. So that going to work 13 what thev have been doing all the time. The dry farms are a long way from being dried out and a rain would now make hay of most of the spring grain that is too far gone to make gram. It is about time that tho good peo- Die of North Powder get busy and get a rest room. This is one of tho most necessary things for a progressive town. If there is anyone that needs a place to rest and get out of tho heat and dust it is the women irom ine counry, and especially the mothers of small children. They must come to town and only the mothers of little people know what a task it is to have to stay around the store for a time with a bunch of little ones to take care of and mo place to rest in but tho stores. Who will be the first to "start tho ball to rolling?" This would not be a bad idea for the ladies clubs to take up. Orburn Saunders and CJias. Law left for Walla Walla on Saturday July 14th to work throughout the harvest at that place. Mr. Sanders has run, a combined harvester there for some years. Chas Law will be the header tender and help Mr. Saunders with the machinery. The young men ex tect to be gone about 30 days. Mr. and Mrs. iBcrt Taylor returned to their'home in Buhl on July 17th. Mr. Tavlor spent a week at Hot Lake and was very much improved in herdth when he returned home. He expects to return later in the season- and spend some time here until he recovers his usual health. As he was building a new bungalow he felt that he could not stay away from home but a short time. Mr. and Mrs. Herman White, Mr. and Mrs. Grant Dalton visited at the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. R. Tibbet3 Inst Monday. C. R. Tibbets sold and delivered seven head of yearling heifers to Grant Dnlton, on Monday and a cow and a calf to Herman White.
