With the assistance and advice of the coaches of the four teams which played through the season just end ed, the selection bl an All-Central Oregon football team from 40 or fewer men who playcdvdurlng the season is not so difficult a task as It would be in nJarger conference, and all of the coaches who reported, as well as The Bulletin sports 'writer, picked Independently of the others, seven of the eleven men selected to make up the team. It is to be expected that Redmond's undefeated team should furnish a plurality of the men chosen on the mythical eleven, particularly since Redmond showed, in an lntersec tlonal coutest, that her team ts up to the standard of high school teams in Oregon. Redmond's strength was fa her line, and so of the Ave Redmond men named, two ore guards and one Is ,st tackle. Johnson and Hansen were a pair of charging guards thatj any coach would be glad to have, on his team. Their defensive work was principally done on the other team's side of the line of scrimmage, and they followed' thd ball unerringly Freeman played the same sort of game on defense, and proved hit value to his team by making a big share of the yardago as fullback on offense. For these reasons, as well for his size. Freeman Is entitled to a place at tackle. The best defensive lineman In the conference, however, was Boyd of Bend. Although rather light for- a tackle, Boyd stopped, or bad a hand in stopping, every play that came his side of the center; he was unerring in open field tackling, and his cat-J like speed was effectively used in moving opponents out of the way on offense. Hicks of Bend must be given a place at center as the principal de fensive strength of his team in the middle of ttie line, and for his cool and accurate passing. For his weight. Hicks Is one of the strongest men physically in the conferenceand muscle is a big' factor , in football. Claypool of Bend and Gates of Redmond are not only the two best ends who played in Central Oregon this year from the standpoint of In dividual ability, but they would make a good, combination. Both are dependable on defense; Gates ex celled as a forward pass receiver, while Claypool has few equals any where at advancing the ball on a switch-back play. He made, a large share of Bend's touchdowns in that manner. Both are sure tacklers, Gillette of Redmond had no close competitor for the quarterback posi tion. His field generalship Is as good ns any that has been exhibited In Central Oregon, but his work In run ning back punts, his open field run ning in general and his passing abil ity entitle htm to a place on the team without doubt. Jacobs and Norcott were the two best plunging backs In the confer ence, with Jacobs perhaps a trifle better than Norcott, und therefore Jacobs Is placed at fullback; but Nor cott was the hardest tackier seen In Central Oregon during the season just past, and would back up the line on dofense. A difficult problem presents Itself in thq choice of tho remaining half back. Had Barton of Redmond played through the season, be would have the portion. Coshow of Prlne. ville is, next to Jacobs and Norcott, tho best line plunger. If the all star cloven were playing a game and win ning, Coshow would be In tha lineup; but f tho team wau unublo to galu consistently, ami punting nnd nn open game in general must bo adopt cd, Fnlkenhngen of Madras would bo sent In for hls'puntlng and passing ability. With Coshow ploying, Nor cott would do tho punting. Claypool Is chosen as captain. Honorablo mention Is given to tho men who would bo chosen ns subtti tutos: Foren of Prluevlllo. who wns Iljck's nearest competitor nt center, Harryman of Bend and Arnold or Prinovllle, both strong defensive guards; Luelllng of Prlncvttlo nnd Bates of Redmond as ends; Falken hagon, Madras, halfback, nnd Wright, Prlnevllle, quarter. Tho conforonco was weak In tackles; Coshow of Prlnevllle and Van Mntre of Red mond were probably tho best, next to tho "men who were chosen. Communications PItALSKS WORK OF A.1 It. C SECRRTAltY To the Editor: The throng that passes dally through the Bend oftlro of tho Amor- lean Red Cross, soeklng for help and advice, find always a friend In Mrs. Vernon A. Forbes, homo secretary. In the throng are ex-scrvico men. sick and unable to work, who need ndvlce and help to get compensation or hospitalization, or vocatlonl traln- 'tng; boys of tho worldwar who aro endeavoring to get n bonus adjust ment; men 'who are sick and unable to -support their families and need help from relatives whom they can reach only .through thb assistance of the Red Cross; men whose wives are sick nnd who have not tho cash at hand to send them to the hospital or to a more suitable climate; wives whose1 husbands ore stck and who have a family to support; men nnd women out of employment looking for suitable work; business men nnd women looking for sultablo em ployes; childless parents looking for chlldrento adopt; children without tiomfc or parents, who need home and counsel all these and many more appeal to Mrs. Forbes for helpv or ad vice and no one is turned away with out a friendly word and an effort to help him adjust himself to his proper sphere of life. Hearts that come heavy to thf office go away with o feeling of gladness and a conscious ness that after all they have a friend who has a real Interest In their trials and' sorrows and who will do tho best she can to help them get a firm foot- - hold on tho up grade, i. It the Bend citizens and others who have paid their membership, and the few who have given liberally to the Bend chapter of tho tied Cross, could know a tithe of the Joy this money brings, to those for whom it Is Worthily spent, they would , realize the profitable investment they have made, and do all In their power to Influence their friends and neighbors to gfe liberally. The American- Red Cross is non sectarian, administering -alike to all who suffer and are in need of help1. Bend is especially favored In having a live, active and conscientious secre tary who is never -too busy to give attention to the call of the needy and who is loved and honored by all whom' she serves. The general sentlnfent expressed by those who have had occasion to need help and have not sought in vain is well expressed In the follow ing lines: You Were a Frlewl You were a friend to inf a" friend when others Grew cold and drew aside or ceased to care; Your love was warm and tender as"a mother's,' - And all you had you sought with me to share. . You were a friend to.ne when I was lonely When all the world was dark and hope wos gone; V , When doubt and' fear assailed, you were the only Remaining friend to love and cheer me on. You were a friend to me; you never altered, Nor doubted my true word, nor ceased to lend Your torch of faith whene'er my own faith faltered You weje a friend, indeed, you "were a friend. AN OBSERVER.

Roady made me do It. I never saw anybody quarreling. Bodderf, I did it myself", "What's she mean did It herself?" the sheriff looked up. "Guess we'll have to go 'way back for that." "KJrxt let's see how urmrnte the thing Is" Fuirchlld Interrupted. "See, if there's uu Item under November 0 of this year." The sheriff searched, then rend: "I dug a grave tonight. It wns not filled. The Immortal thing left me. I knew It would. Roady had come and toll me to dig a grave and put It In there. I did. We titled It with quicklime. Then we went upstairs unrt.lt was gone.

"It was along about June 7, IKK!. I'm sure It wus around thcro." The olil hooks were limited over, one after the other. At Inst Ilardweli leaned forward and pointed to u cer tain page. "Here's an item under May 28. It suys: 'Roudy linn been nt me again! He wants mu to tlx things so that the three men In the Blue Poppy mine. will get taught In there by a cave-In.'" The sheriff looked up. "This seems to rend a little better than the other stuff. It's not ho Jagged. Don't guess ah wns as much off her nut then as she N now, Iet' see. Where's the place?

And I'm so lonesome for hlml" "The explanation I" Fnlrchlld al most shouted 1t ns he seized the book and read It again. "Sheriff, I've gfd to mnUe n confession. My father al ways thought that he hnd killed u man. Not that he told me hut I could guess It ' easily enough, from other things that happened. When he came to, ho found n single-Jack hummer lying beside him, and I.tircen's body ifcros him. Couldn't he naturally be lieve that he had killed hi in white tu a daze? Hu was afraid of Itixlitlue .that Rodnlne would get up u lynch ing party und string Idui up. linn here and Mrs. Howurd helped him. out of town. And this Is thu explana tion 1" Ilardweli smiled quizzically. "It looks like there's going to he n lot of explanations. Whut' time was it when you were trapped In that mlni, Hnrklns?" "AJoug about the first of Novem ber." The sheriff turned to the page. It was there the story of Cruzy Laura and her descent .Into tlfc Blue ('oppy mine, and again the, charge of dyna mite which wrecked tho tunnel. With a little sigh, Rfirdwelt closed the book nnd looked out at the dawn, forcing Its vay through' the binding snow. "Yes, I gues! we'll find n lot of things lu- this old book," camii nt last. "But I think right now that thu best thing anyof us can find Is a little sleep." Rest rest for five wearied persons, hut the rest of contentment und peace. And late In the afternoon, three of them were gathered In the old-fashioned purlor of Mother Howard's board ing bouse, waiting for the return of that dignitary from a sudden mission upon which Anita Richmond bad sent her, Involving a trip to the old Rich mond munstou. Harry turned away from his place at the window. "The district attorney 'ad a Jong talk with Ilarnhnin," he announced, "and Vs figured out a wye for all the stock'olders In tho Silver CJueen to get what's coming to them. Ah It Is, they's about a 'uunerd thousand short some'ercs." Falrchlld looked up. "What's the scheme?" "To call a meeting of the stock 'olders and transfer all that money over to n special fund to buy Blue Poppy stock. We'll 'nve to ralso money anyway to work tho mine like wu ought to. And It 'd cost something. You always 'avo to underwrite that sort of thing. I sort of like' It, even if we'd 'ave to sell stock a little be low par. It'd keep Ohadl from get ting a bad name atid all that." "I think, so, too." Anita Richmond laughed. "It suits me line." Falrchlld looked down at her and smiled. "I guess that's the nnswer," he said.' "Of course ttnit doesn't Include tho Rodnlne stock. In othfr words, wo give a lot of dliuppolnted stock holders par value for about ninety cents on the dollar. But Knrrell ran look nfter nil that. He's got to Imvo something lo keep him busy' as at torney for the company." A step on the veranda, nnd Mother Howard entered, a package under her arm, which she placed In Anita's lap. The, girl looked up nt the ''man who stood beside her. " "I promised," she said, "that I'd tell you about the Denver road." He leaned close, "That Isn't all yon promised Just before I left you tl(Jj morning." cunm his whispered voire, and Harry, ut the window, doubled In Inughter. "Why didn't you speak It nil out?" he gurgled. "I 'curd every word.'.' Anita's eyen snapped.
