The streets will be lavishly f ecorated with flags and bunt by day and an extra supply v:i electric lights by night IMiiny homes will be thrown open 1j3t the reception of our visitors, rasd ample accommodations for "ding the hungry will be pro rfded by ourjiotels and restau-2-aats. We feel that we are in a pos- tifTi to extend a hearty and cor r im welcome to all who may "ifavor us with their presence for . tzAe next three days. Come and -?njoy our hospitality. Come and .-.sdtness our initial effort to pro erly display the products, m : iiistries and resourses of the county. Come and be thoroly :rmvinced that Morjow county is- one of the most desireable r'at-e to live in in the Northwest. Ceme, and see . for yourselves vjial we produce alfalfa second to . ether locality; see our corn i;n or twelve feet high with ears iisre than a foot long; see our in .".cs33parable garden truck, our strjsurpassed orchard products, iirA our BOUNCING BABIES. We want you to see what we a re doing here, what we are sr'issmg, so tnai you may nave Ft'Tne idea of what can be done, 7 nd will be done in the near f u wtare under improved conditions. As a representative of Morrow .yanty and of Heppner in par-rk-ular, we bid you one and all, w elcome. Our latch string is out, . snd we welcome every farmer vind stockman, every son of toil i73d every capitalist, every bus "ness man, every educator, every -Z.-ctor, lawyer, preacher and professional politician.

And we 7.-5 ave a special welcome awaiting t-.V.ose prodigals who have wan ti 'red away from the family fold time past f.nd who are now r"-.-fding upon the dry husks aff orded by other communities, especially Portland,) if they re-j "turn. They will find that the t'atted calf (not a slick ear,) lhas been killed; and we have a n'ng to put upon their finger. WELCOME. OUR NEED. REGISTRATION SLOW. Women in Morrow county, as ;a whole, are not taking advan t nye of their newly given powers trA to date only 24 have register ed for the special election of Nov- .-r.x.,r 4. The- men are doing .Letter proportionately, since those who registered for the last elec- c'on are not required to register tijcin for the special election. Sewral important measures are The people of Morrow county need just now, worst.of all, more., of the "pull together spirit." We talk considerably about get ting together, etc. but why should we "get together" unless we "pull together" resolutely and systematically for what we want? The interests of one section are the interests of all. We must get rid of the feeling that the prosperity of our neighbor spells adversity for us. Our interests are one. What benefits the country benefits the town and what benefits one town benefits every other town to some extent. As citizens of Heppner we re joice in the growth and prosper ity of every other town in the county. We realize that Heppner can never reach its full measure of importance unless the surround ing towns are developing. And we know,- just as well, that with-. out the hearty co-operation of town and country that neither. can enjoy the prosperity they are entitled to by reason of our nat ural resources and geographical situation. If there remains in the heart of any a root of bitterness en gendered by the struggles and contests of the past, it is high time they were forgotten. Let us remember that the mistakes and animosities of those days originated with and were con ducted by parties, most of whom are not now here, and we who are know but little about them and care less. We must deal with conditions t , i i i n as we nna tnem, ana worn ior the greatest good to the greatest number. We are not called upon to settle the accounts of those who have gone before us but to make the most out of the present situation, and leave the best pos sible heritage to those who come after us. FA FIRST ANNUAL MORROW COUNT Heppner, Oregon, Sept. 25, 26, 27, 1913 Trinr,eo Big JEPsnym BMN EVERY HALITE R Daily eo3lano IMivhL-t by SILAS CHRISTOFFERSON WORLD'S FAMOUS AVIATOR in Acts of Magic, and Punch and Judy Shows Simple College Life. The University of Oregon, at Eugene, which in all depart ments has about 1250 students, is an example of extreme sim plicty of living. 'Last year 53 per cent of the men students earned their way, in whole or part, and many women students earned all or part of their incomes. The University encourages am bitous young men to come, whether they have sufficient funds to last through the college year or not, and every effort is made to help them get work after hours. The cost per student to Oregon taxpayers is among the lowest in the United States. The Univer sity is, however, very seriously handicaped by crowded quarters, no new buidings having been erected for six years, during which time attendance has doubled.
