TO THE PEOPLE OF MORROW COUNTY :
"We now wish to announce the completion of the work
of remodeling the Palace Hotel, and call your attention
to the conveniences now open to the public.
We now are prepared to furnish our patrons with
rooms with bath (tub or shower), hot and .cold water and
all modem improvements. Our new Mezzanine floor fac
ing the lobby contains the ladies' rest room and writing
room which are always open to the public. We would be
pleased to have you come in and use them at any time.
We have installed a telephone booth in the lobby that is
for the use of all, both for local and long distance calls.
We will be glad to have our patrons phone us at any time
for ranch hands, for we are prepared to serve you better
than ever before and trust you will call on us when help is
needed.
The now hard wood floor in the Grille room offers an
exceptional opportunity for Dinner Dances, Private
Dances or Club Dances. In the basement is a new modern
Billiard and Pool Room making it possible for you to
amuse yourself during the hottest weather. Next door
to this is a ten pin bowling alley.
We have built a private dining room just off from the
lobby that will accomodate private luncheons, dinner
parties or banquets at any hour of the day or night.
We also wish to call your attentiou to the installation
of a new drinking fountain in the lobby where ice water
can be had at all times. The ice is put in a box that is
filled with lead pipe. This keeps the water cold and pure.
.Arrangements are now under way to make the Palace
modern from top to bottom, with steam heat, hot and cold
water in every room; before the cold weather comes again.
We cordially invite the people of Morrow County and
Eastern Oregon to make use of these new improvements
and the Palace their headquarters while in Heppner.
By J. L. WILKINS, Manager.

Harvie Young, Eight Mile farmer
who was in the city yesterday, stated
that harvest would commence on bis
ranches next Monday. He places the
yield at 12 bushels per acre, al
though this may prove to be a low
estimate.
Messrs. Cummings & Brown are
making preparations to begin their
wheat harvest on the farm west of
Heppner. These gentlemen expect to
cut and thresh quite a lot of good
grain regardless of the adverse
weather conditions.
The families of C. E. Woodson and
Willard Herren are moving today to
their new summer camp just above
the Herren Mill. This is considered

of many, huckleberry patches.

Creamery Is Doing Big Business.
The Morrow County Creamery at
the present time is doing an unparal
leled business. Cream shipments
have been on the increase and as a
result more butter has been made
than ever before. Wednesday the
creamery shipped 1700 pounds of
butter to Portland, this being a sur
plus of what is disposed of locally.
Manager Claude Cox estimates that
the creamery will also have sold 1000
gallons of ice cream during the
month of July.
Home Guard Up In the Air.
The proposed home guard for
Heppner is figuratively up in the air
at the present time. It seems that
the movement was off to a good start
with more than one hundred mem
bers, when those having in charge
the organization were informed by
Governor Withycombe that he had
neither power nor means to furnish
and equip the home guard with uni
forms and guns. Just what will be
done in view of this circumstance,
has not yet been announced. It is
possible that the local patriots will
go ahead with their organization,
providing it does not conflict with
rules of t'lje army department.

Much Time and Money
have been wasted in a vain endeavor to convince people that there is
real virtue in Imitations and Substitutes, not alone in the goods them
selves, but in the methods of selling. In the end the people find out
that it is only a "new slant" to the old game and that any variations
from the established principles of sound business dealing are sure
to result unsatisfactorily. Let your local dealer show you "the Nigger-in-the-wood-pile."
It's there.
