STATE HIGHWAY COMMISSION
It is highly encouraging that Gov. Pierce has asked the
present state highway commission and engineer to remain
on the job until after the legislature is over, and asked
them in a way that won their good will.
The governor, the commissioners and the engineer sat
with their knees under the same table up in the highway
commission office and got somewhat acquainted.
The governor found that the members of the highway
commission were not a group of incompetent wasters of
public funds. J'he commissioners found that the governor
was not merely a demagogue. It is a good thing for the
good roads cause that they got acquainted, and that with
the governor's full concurrence, the letting of contracts for
the 1923 road program is to proceed as it ought to at this
time of year in preparation for the working season.
The deeper Gov. Pierce goes into state government, the
more he will find out that it is wjell administered. It is a
fine sign that he is willing to dig in before acting arbitrarily
and that he is open to conviction so far as administrative
method is concerned. Oregon Voter.
Twelve Heppner Hiuh School Boys
Kai-n Foot liall letters
Under the requirements as stated
in the new constitution, twelve foot
ball boys were eligible to receive the
bronze felt letter. After a short talk
by Coa'-h Mather, telling why each
received a letter, they were present
ed to the following: Keith Logan,
Alvin Boyd, Carl Cason, Frances
Doherty, Elmer Bucknum, Reid
Buseick, Paul Aiken, Bill Gilliam,
Leonard Schwartz, Philip Mahoney,
Ralph Moore and Austin Smith.
Keith LoKn, next year'3 captain, and
Alvin Boyd were the only two enti
tled to wear the monogram for par
ticipating in the same sport for
three years. Although some of the
boys did not earn their letter, they
are to be commended for their spirit
in defending "our old high school.'

The truth-in-fubric bill recently re
ported from the senate interstate
commerce committee is now on the
senate calendar. Kor the last 20 years
some sort of a similar bill has been
in 'the congressional hopper, but it
has never progressed so far as to be
reported from a committee.
The bill is written to protect the
buying public and make it possible
for consumers to purchase woolen
goods and know the amount of virgin
wool, re-worked wool, cotton, silk
and other fibers which it contains
Its purpose is to prevent deceit, and
the unfair prices that result frum
the unsuspected presence of substi
tutes for virgin wool in woven fabrics
and in articles of apparel. It will
prevent the use of the misleading
terms such as "all wool."
Frequently when the term is used
the public is deluded to believe tliat
the material is :t?Ai of virgin wool,
whereas it may contain little or no
virgin wool and being manufactured
of shoddy, which has been manu
factured or re-worked as high as
seven or eight times.
It is very difficult to distinguish
re-worked wool from virgin wool.
The wear in qualil of the two it
very much different. Garments made
of re-worked wool will not hold in
strength or -wear as well as those
of virgin wool or containing a little
percentage of it.
The farm bloc, consisting cf sena
tors from agricultural states, is ac
tively pushing the present bill and
hope to malce it into law before the
present session is over.

Jackie Coogan, tho famous child
star who is featured in "Peck's Bad
Boy" at tho Star theatre Friday,
made his first theatrical appearance
at the tender age of sixteen monhs,
when he crawled out onto the stage
of a New York theatre during one of
the performances in which his father
was playing. Jackie made such a
tremendous hit when he made his
appearance unannounced, that Pa
Coogan decided to keep the "bit" in
the act. Consequently Jackie has ap
peared in many theatres throughout
the country. It was during one of
these appearances with his father in
Annette Kellerman's vaudeville act
that he first attracted the eyes of
Charles Chaplin. The rest is history.
Suffice it to say, however, Jackie
came by his histrionic abilities quite
honestly.

PEXDLETOX EDITOR LOSES
DAMAGE SUIT TO TAYLOR
Pendleton, Jan. 27. Fifty dollars
general damages and $1000 punitive
damages, together with the heavy
costs of the trial were assessed by a
jury this afternoon against Harry L.
Kuck, publisher of the ePndleton
Tribune, after deliberating for a lit
tle more than two hours. The verdict
was awarded to W. R. Taylor, Pen
dleton city marshal, who sued Kuck
for $10,000, libel in the publication
of reports that Taylor entered into
deals with bootleggers, sharing with
them the proceeds of raids.
The defense waived argument to
the jury following argument by the
plaintiff's attorney.
Another case of similar character
in which Robert Sinclair is plaintiff,
will be tried soon.
CONTRACTOR'S BILL KILLED IX
HOUSE
A bill fathered by the Associated
Contractors and introduced by Rep
resentative Watson seeking to corn
pel county courts to let all road work
and the purchase of supplies in ex
cess of $2 50 to the lowest bidder was
decisively defeated in the House at
Salem Thursday. Vigorous protests
from most of the counties of the
state were made against the bill
which, it was claimed, would prevent
counties doing their own road work
and would result in the scrapping of
hundreds of thousands of dollars
worth of road machinery if it became
a law.
"Don't stop me," yelled Jmmie.
But the man stopped him anyhow.
"What are you running for?" the
man asked.
"I'm tryin' to keep two fellows
from fightin'," Jimmie gasped.
"What two fellows?"
"Willie Brown and me" Selected.
Girrmti acquainted
At. one time a gentleman had oc
casion to give his servant a ten-dollar
bill. "Now, my man, how much have
I given you?"
"A ten-dollar William, sir," was
the reply.
"A ten-dollar William!" exclaim
ed the gentleman.
"Yes, sir," said the servant. "I'm
not familiar enough with it to call it
Bill." Selected.
