To The Graduates At this time of the year, when commencement exercises are taking up much of your thoughts, we desire to say a few words to the members of the graduating class. The writer is not so many years older than most of the graduates but the hard knocks of experience have taught him a few of the lessons which can be learned in no other way. Graduates, don't think you have completed your education. What you have learned in school is but the beginning ' of your education. While spending your time in the school room for the past twelve years, you fiave had little time to learn any of the lessons of real life. In school, you have simply been taught to think, in order that when you come face to face with stern problems of real life, your mind will be able to grapple with any question and contest with the minds of other individuals. You are about to face lessons that cannot be learned in 45 minutes or an hour, and these lessons will be hard. In the competition of life you will have no teacher to assist you. Your twelve years in school ought to have helped prepare you a foundation so that you may now tackle the harder pro blems and solve them. You should count the day lost on which you do not learn some thing new and worth while. Remember your motto: "Hon or Lies in Honest Toil." You should now be prepared to work in the big game of life. The world needs lots of workers. But the world, not you, will be the judge of your abilities. After 50 years of the hard studies of real life you will look back to this week as being truly a "Commencement" week Are you going to be body ? 1'ts up to you. WOMEN AND BEAUTY s "No one can say that the last whitchouse bride is pretty," one woman remarked, after study ing all the newspaper and maga zine pictures of the young wo man. Well, that depends. Some go so far as to say that all the Wilson girls are plain, al most homely. The bride has the charm of youthfulness which always has a prettiness of its own, like a spring morn ing or a rosebud. But whether or not a woman is beautiful depends. It de pends on what she is and how well you know her. The world is full of homely men, but there are few really homely women, until after they have made themselves so by dissipations and non-thinking. The woman who cultivates her mind, who keeps her heart fresh and her soul alive, whose face expresses something which is the reflec tion of something worth while, she seldom grows old or ugly. Her features may not be regular and the lines may be ordinary, but to those who know her and no others can sit in judgement she always has the elements of beauty. Women who know nothing and feel nothing can never be said to be beautiful, although the glamor may be up on them. The beauty that strikes one at a glance is rare enough in this world, as it is brief, indeed. But when you come to know people you are apt to find more than you saw at the first glance. The Wilson girls are all endowed with good brains and they have heart qualities, as shown by their past activities, and those qualities will produce beauty of their own, a beauty that will outlast rouge and powder and fine clothes. some- Retiring From lone This week's issue of The lone Bulletin will be the last undor the ownership and management of L. K. Harlan. In the future, Mr. F. W. Sears will conduct Ione's newspaper and the writer retires, in a partial way, from that field. We expect, however to serve the people of the entire County of Morrow in a far bet ter manner from Hopimer than we were able to serve them from lone. Through the colums of The Heppner Herald we will keep our readers in touch with th happenings of ench and every locality possible and we expect to make our editorial columns of intense interest and benefit to our readers. The policy of The Herald will be absolutely Inde pendent. We will confine our efforts to suporting only such persons and movements as we consider would benefit the people of this county the women had selected a better man. When the glamor and the magnificance have been remov ed, Napoleon was a scourge. He filled Europe with widows and orphans. Hundreds of thous ands of men went to their graves in youth in order that his thirst for glory might be grati fied. We see in Napoleon mag nificence, but nothing that ap peals to the better side of human nature. PROFESSIONAL COLUMN F. DYE, DENTIST Pemanently located in Odd Fellows building, Rooms 4 and 5. The Herald is pleased to acknowledge receipt of a copy of the 20-page Souvenir Edition of the Enterprise Record-Cheif-tain which was issued last week. The edition pictures half a hun dred scenes throughout Wallowa County and contains well writ ten descriptions of the various resources and pursuits of that county. The publishers of the Record-Chieftain have gone to a good deal of expense and have put in many hours of hard work to put before the public an edi tion of such high class and are entitled to lots of credit.

CHRISTENSON DENTIST Heppner, Oregon Offices with Drs. Winnard & McMurdo With the demise of the Inter Ocean, standpatism loses its last prominent advocate in Chicago journalism. For several years the paper has been kept alive only by the contributions of its stockholders who had often come to its relief, hoping that the tide would turn and they would be reimbursed in good time. It took them long to dis cover that standpatism was really dying, but they found it out at last and gave up the struggle. C. E. WOODSON ATTORNEY-AT-LAW Office in Palace Hotel. Heppner, Ore. SAM E. VAN VACTOR ATTORNEY-AT-LAW Heppner, Oregon Thanks We view with great pride and appreciation the good words of The Portland Oregonian, who admit in a recent issue, that the Herald is already one of the leading country weeklies of the state. After having lived here a few weeks longer and having acquainted ourselves better with the people of the city and sur rounding country, The Herald's news and editorial columns will expand and keep expanding and win contain practically every piece of news of the entire coun ty.

Oregon Those who are interested in the Mexican war will be delighted with the following which we clip from the San Francisco Star. It says it is impel led by a worthy desire to rescue from indignities a much injured friendly tongue to offer the following first aids in pronunciation of familiar Mexican Spanish names, now being ruthlessly slaughtered by Americans: Villa, in Castilian Spanish Veelyah, but in Mexico Vee-yah. in Spanish is always silent; 'V has1 the sound of English "w". Tampico, Tam-pee-ko, not Tamp-ee-ko. Usual rule in Spanish is to place the accent on the pneultimate, or next to last syllable. Hermosillo, Er-mo-see-yo. Saltillo, Saul-tee-yo. Laredo, Lah-ray-do. Chihuahua, Chee-wa-wa. Jiminez, He-ma-nes. Juarez, Hwah-res; "j" in Spanish as English "h". These tips should be of immense value in "Mexican War" discussions. Paste 'em in your hat, and talk with hat in hand. W. L. SMITH, ABSTRACTER Only complete set of abstract books in Morrow County. HEPPNER, - - OREGON Women Who Would Be Na poleon A Taris paper submitted to a large number of women the question, "If you had been born a man, what man would you have been ?" Strange as it may seem, nearly all answered the question with the name of "Na poleon." Ninety-nine out of a hundred to whom the question was submitted would have been Napoleons. There were a few scattering votes and some of those were cast for Edison, the American inventor, the only American who was thought of by the French women. Wood row Wilson and Theodore Roose velt and Victoriano Huerta were alike passed up by them. We take it that what those women were thinking of when they expressed their admiration of the little corporal of French history, was achievement.

Sometimes a man never realizes that he is fat until he discoveres that his stomach is crowding him away from the table. A man can't help being bow-legged. But if he adds side whiskers to his other calamity there is no hope for him. A new metal can stand a strain of 1000 tons to the square inch. Shucks!
