3T was evening on the Broad
Hempstead Pia'.n, Loni Island,
where the Rainbow division was
pending Us last night before embark
ing for France. It ha 1 beau raining
hard In the afternoon a cold, steady
autumn downpour and there was
nothing to suggest the rainbow In the
outward aspect of the camp. Lines
and lines of sodden canvas housed
17,000 rren, gathered from 27 different
tatea. The ground was dotted with
Pools snd quagmires. Under the wet
canvas it was damp and cold, with a
renetratln? chill. Lit by flickering
candles, the tents were f ir from cheer
ful shelter for a-rnan's last Light in
tls native lp?id.
But there were seven blj tenta
where e'ec:r'c lights, numbers snd

across. AM It was with a throb of
the heart that I watched them, bent
over their letter paper, in one after
another of those seven big tents.
These were the tents of the Y. M. C.
A. On that last night In America the
association was serving the so'.diers
In the beat of all ways giving tbem
en opportunity to write home. On
previous nights they had enjoyed box
ing bouts, movies, concerts, dramatics
and a score of healthy entertainments
sb well as religious meetings. But on
this last nlfht home ties were strong
est. And perhaps that Is the keynote
of the splendid work the Y. M. C. A.
Is doing among our men In uniform
keeping thun In touch w'th home.

This war baa made us think hard

bor's boy or some boy you know aad
love has been called to do his share
in the big Job of policing the wor.d for
democracy and human liDerty. Is it
any comfort to you to know that wher
ever his duty may call him your boy
will nave a friend that will serve him
In body, mind and soul? Are you
glad to know that this friend wi:i place
books and magazines at his disposal,
organize classes to teach him what
ever he wants to learn, give him a
pocket testament and invite him to ,
Join religious meetings of the faith
that he was brought up In? Did you
realize that the association provides !
athletic equipment for his favorite '
games, teaches him games If he knows i
none and holds concerts, lectures, ''
movies, Bible classes, dramatic eater i
talnments and every kind of whole i
tome amusement to keep him Interes'- j
ed? Are you glad to know that thij j
friend will go with him overseas, halp
to shield him from a score of difficult i
and dangerous temptations and follow !
him right up to the froat line trench
and beyond It? T'ae last contact the I
toldier has wJth this life he loves so !

forts of the man In the trenches. Do
you wonder that the Red Triangle la
called "th( best loved trademark in

called It "the last evidence that any

If every thinking clt'zen could tee

no question of the Y. M. C. A. having

PLEASES CITIZENS
The action of the State High
way ennineercnn definitely locat
ing the State Highway on the
route which follows Willow creek
valley from Heppner to Heppner
Junction meets with the approv
al of practi jally all Morrow coun
ty oeople.
This route will serve the needs
of manv neonle in thp north enrl
of the county by giving: them,
when the Columbia Highway a
completed, an all-paved route to
the county seat and without the
added 20 miles travel each way
which the selection of the Ar
lington route would have entail
ed. The route also affords a
wat.r level grade from the inte-
ior of Morrow county to the
Columbia river and the cheap
ransportation such a stream,
pen to navigation to the sea,
tiers.
As announced in the Herald
last Friday evening, the decision
to select the Heppner Junction
route was reached on that day.
On Monday County Judge Pat
terson received a letter from
M. O. Bennett, state highway
engineer, confirming the Herald
statement and ending the Morrow-Gilliam
controversy over the
question of location. The letter
follow:
"Have just received the reso
lution from your County Court
to the effect that the Oregon
Washington Highway, west of
Heppner should follow down
Willow creek from lone to Hepp
ner Junction. Am pleased toad
vise that, after due consideration
of local people, financial outlook
for immediate const ruction, char
acter ami value of lands travers
ed, etc., have instructed Mr.
Haldock to make his definite lo
cation begintiinging at the coun
ty line on Willow creek ami run
ning to Heppner. "
