Every minute wasted on the road by slow,
inefficient hauling and delivery costs you
real moiiey. Horses take from three to
four times as long to cover the ground as
it will take you when you install Smith
Form-a-Trucks in your service.
Three to four miles an hoar is the best hones on do
with a ton load. Smith Form - a -Track replaces the
slow, time wasting walk of horses with a speed of from ten
to fourteen miles an hour under every condition of work.
And it costs no more to buy a Smith Form - -Truck
than it does to buy a good pair of horses equal to the
work of hauling a ton load. If yourhaolinf or delivery
requires all-day service every working day of the year,
you must have at least two teams for every wagon.
The sturdy, efficient, untiring Smith Fonn-a-Track never
takes time out for rest, never has to by of? the job. It
works steadily day in and day out, always maintaining
its high speed, always moving its load quickly, easily,
and at lower cost than any other form of service yon
can buy.

JOHN McENTIRE SOLD HIS
WOOL AT HIGH FIGURE
John McEntire, who runs sheep on
the Whetstone ranch on Hinton
creek, recently sold his entire 1917
wool clip at the high figure of 61
cents.
This makes up in part for the
hard luck which Mr. McEnt!re en
countered during the past year when
he lost a large number of sheep by
poison. Mr. McEntire sold nearly
$10,000 worth of wool this year but
he has not lost sight of the source of
this great increase in earnings. He
has invested heavily in Liberty bonds
and contributed generously to the
Red Cross.
Mr. McEntire has sent his sheep to
the summer range in the high mountains.

WELL KNOWN WRESTLERS
WILL MEET HERE OX JULY 7th
Wrestling fans of Heppner, and we
might say, the entire county, will
have another opportunity to see Jim
Londos, the Greek wrestler in action
here again soon. He will meet Har
old Christensen, champion wrestler of
Denmark, on Saturday night, July 7th
at the Opera House. There will be a
number of preliminary events but
the big match will commence prompt
ly at 9 o'clock.
Londos has been wrestling through
the Middle West and on the Coast
since he was In Heppner more than
a year ago and he has, since that time
met and defeated some of the best of
them.
However, it is predicted that Lon
dos will have no easy victory over his
opponent Christensen, if indeed, he is
able to get away with the larger part
of the falls. The Dane was winner of
the world's amateur championship
for several consecutive years, having
competed with the best amateur
wrestlers at the Olympic games and
not once meeting defeat. Since com
ing to the United States a little more
than a year ago, Christensen has lost
but one match, and that to champion
Joe Stecher. He has wrestled a
draw with Strangler Lewis and other
noted heavyweights and when pitted
against men of his own weight has
always been returned the winner.
The two men will weigh In at 175
pounds.
In this match the wrestling fra
ternity will have an opportunity to
witness talent that rarely presents
Itself to towns the size of Heppner.
The match might easily be held In a
much larger town. But Heppner has
demonstrated on past occasions that
they are Interested in the great wrest
ling game, and for that reason the
event will tak place here.
