THE OAZETTE-TIMES. HfiPPN" ORE.. THraSDJLT. ICQ? 7, UtJ PAGE THREE c SSfa Most Beautiful GarinJlmrica THIS is the year of all years when it will pay you to place an order for your Paige, just as early as possible. In the first place, there is every indication that the "sold out" condition of last year will be repeated. Thousands of people have been watching the ""performance of this great car studying the experience of owners convinc ing themselves that Paige is actually first choice in the field of light sixes. Then, too, you will undoubtedly be obliged to pay more for your Paige if you wait too long. It is a matter of public knowledge that the costs of all manufact' uring materials and labor have increased tremendously during the past year and quotations are still climbing. We have, of course, protected ourselves by early purchase. 'But 1 our present supplies cannot last indefinitely and, in the face of a steadily advancing market, we shall be obliged to in' crease list prices proportionately. So for your own protection now is the time to act. Don't , , wait until it is too late. Dont place yourself in a position where it will be necessary to compromise on a "second best." t See the Paige dealer today.

Pry, Pronser, Wuh., Clone Deal With Tum-A-Lura Lumber Company. The farmers of the Rattlesnake district should be very much pleased to learn that on Tuesday of this week, Mr. Pry let a contract to the Tum-A-Lum Lumber Co. for the construc tion at once of an up-to-date grain elevator to be constructed at Whit stran on the new branch of the N. P. The elevator is to be equipped with the latest machinery for cleaning and handling grain, also dump scales and automatic weighing-out scales. There will be (eleven bins for storing of grain, the capacity to be 50,000 bu shels. The elevator is to be ready to receive grain 'ijy July :20th, and Man ager O.Shaughnessy of the Tum-A- Lum Lumber Co. Mnlurms us that the company wiH put T8 or 20 men to work at once. Farmers of this locality have been talking elevator for some years and while this will be the first elevator this siae of the Columbia, Mr. Pry feels that "he wants to keep up his reputation which is on the rocks and posts "between here and Grandview s a lire wire. This should be a great BOTing to the farmers as the sack bill from year to year is always a pay-out with no return. It is argued that the wheat can be threshed cheaper and hauled cheaper if handled in bulk, Also being cleaned as it goes into the elevator, insures a number bne arti cle when ready for sale.

Fred Esteb sold his Eight Mile ranch last week to Henry Peterson of Heppner and Gooseberry. The sale includes all equipment and stock with the exception of four head of horses. It is understood that Mr. Peterson paid $30 an acre for the land. The place consists of 640 acres and is : considered one of the best in that section. Mr. Peterson is a young man who is just breaking into the farming game. He graduated last week from Heppner high school and if he makes as good a record farming as he did as a student it is safe to predict the highest success for him. His father, Aaron Peterson, has been farming in the Gooseberry section for a long number of years. Two other sons, Ture and Richard, are also farming on a big scale and Richard is also quite extensively engaged in the sheep business. H. V. Gates, president of the Hepp ner Light and Water Co., spent sev eral days in the city this week look ing after property interests. AMERICA'S HIGH DUTY Newspaperman's Paper Soon To Make Its Bow University ol Oregon, Eugene, May 28. Publication of Oregon Exchan ges, a paper for the newspaper men of this state, will be undertaken as soon as material for the first issue for which a call has already gone out Is received. The paper will start small and will grow as the newspaper men make use of it. It is hoped to make the paper a medium for ex change of ideas among journalists of this ' state, for the publication of news of especial interest to 'news paper men, such as changes of owner ship, personal moves of Journalists, big newspaper campaigns and any thing else concerning editors, publish ers and printers throughout the state. The paper will carry no advertising and will be distributed free to Jour nalists and printers of Oregon. It is hoped through this means to co operate with the state and Willam ette Valley editorial associations in keeping the newspaper men of the state in close touch with one another. AH the Oregon newspapers have been Invited j to exchange with the new paper and It is the aim of the pub Ushers to make every newspaper man in the state a contributor to the columns of Oregon Exchanges, as well as an interested reader. Railroad May Extend Lino There Is serious talk now of the early extension of the line of the Sumpter Valley Railway down the Middle Pork of the John Day, from Austin to a point near Susanville. The Oregon Lumber Comoanv. an auxiliary of the railroad, has several thousand acres of timber lands in this locality. Also there are several million feet of mature timber in the By John Sharp Williams, United States Senator from Mississippi. The United States, has entered up on the great world conflict, which is ' to decide whether Democracy shall have a safe place in the sun on the earth, or not. There is hardly any duty higher than that which ought to actuate each citizen to help furnish a part of the money which will be necessary for that purpose. It is true that a man may be able to lend his money out at 6,or7,or8, and in some places even 10 per cent, but he might well forego for the space of two or three years the high er rate of Interest while he invested in 3 per cent bonds of the United States. His principal would be safe. The bonds are exempt from taxation, except the inheritance tax, and ex changeable for later bonds of a high er rate of Interest if the United States -later during this war issues such, and are especially freed from any war tax that may be levied. Our men cannot get to France or Belgium In any considerable numbers for a year. The Government's money received from the subscriptions , to bonds may get there by wire, the credit based upon it may, which is the same thing, and, after getting there takes the form of clothing and food, munitions, rifles and cannon and nay help our allies to win. Next to the immediate duty of chas ing submarines and sinking them wherever tbey can be found, thereby reopening the avenues overseas for the world's commerce, there is noth ing that can do so much good as lending the Government your mon ey. And even in that respect the man who subscribes to a bond, putting what ready money he can into it, has the satisfaction of knowing that his money has helped build a destroy er, or buy an armed yacht, which in its turn has destroyed a submarine. The American people are not a money-loving people a the sense that a miser is. Their money getting takes more than a form of a game, which is enjoyed because of its skill and the clash of wits, and their love of the possession of money is based more upon the uses to which the money can be put in elevating them selves and their children and their neighbors and the community, in which they live than upon the money itself, or the reputation of having it. We are the wealthiest people in the world; this wealth ought now to serve the country. It will be a shameful thing that those who are not fit for military service should al low those who are fit to go to the front and be maimed and mangled, and perhaps killed, while they stay at home and refuse to do even so much as to loosen their purse strings.

Senator Wil liams of Mississippi was the first Member of either House of Congress to subscribe for Liberty Loan Bonds, investing several thousand dollars in them.) , Arthur Dykstra, south Heppner wheat farmer, has purchased a new Hudson Super-Six from Vaughn & Sons, local agents.
