BUA"SM1LAGE BOOK"
SEND IT TO A SOLDIER
About the most cheerful cam
paign for war purposes yet put
on is the "Smilage Book" cam
paign which was organized in
Heppner last evening with May
or W. W. Smead as chairman.
Mr. Smead was appointed chair
man for this county by the war
department.
The object of the campaign is
to provide cheerful amusement
and entertainment for "our boys
in uniform." Each smilage book
contains coupons good for admis
sion to Liberty theaters, etc., at
cantonments and camps. A book
costing $1 contains 20 coupons; a
book costing $5 contains 100 cou
pons. Each book has a space
upon which may be inscribed the
REAL ESTATE ACTIVE
An important deal in Heppner
business property was reported
Monday when it became known
that T. J. Humphreys bad pur
chased a one half interest in the
building he now occupies with
his drug store from Frank Rob

is understood, 17,500.' The build,
ing is one of the best in the city,
being of Morrow county stone
construction and in good condi

best in the city and Mr. Humph

The Herald's Roll of Honor
Battle-Scarred Veterans Will
Tell Story of Trench Life
At the Fair Pavilion next Tuesday evening, Janu
ary 29th, will be held Heppner's most important meet
ing since tbe advent of the United States into the world
war.
Tbe attraction will consist of three Canadian officers,
Lieut. -Col. J. M. MacMillan. Major F. B. Edwards and
Captain E. J. Gook, all of whom bave been through some
of the hardest fought battles on the west front and who
have been so desperately wounded as to incapacitate
thera for further military service. They are still serv
ing the cause of the allies and of humanity, however, by
carrying a direct message to the people of America
from the battle front. Many of tbe things they are tell,
ing on this tour have never been published and the per
sonal experiences as related by these men are said to
be the most illuminating and instructive war stories
yet brought to America.
Every resident of the county who can possibly do so
should attend this meeting.
Should the pavilion prove to small to accommodate
the crowd arrangements have been made to hold one or
more overflow meetings simultaneously, at which each
speaker will appear in rotation.
Remember the date, Tuesday evening, January 29.
No admission will be charged, no collection taken
and absolutely no solicitation will be made for money
for any purpese.
Following the meeting at the pavilion a social dance
will be given by the committee in charge to secure
funds to defray local expenses of the meeting. Good
music will be provided and a pleasant time is assured.
