YEAR after year the Paige has progressed in
its efforts to build into its cars the greatest
possible quality and value.
The Liirwood "Six'39," a five'passenger touring car,
is a supreme example of this policy represent'
ins a great stride toward the goal of ultimate
values.
When you buy a Linwood "Sixo" each of your
dollars purchases more motoring than it could
ever have commanded before.
. Embodying the mechanical excellence that has
made raige popularity enduring, it combines
with that virtue a distinctive design well
worthy of the phrase "The Most Beautiful
Car in America."

of the work In the Northwest. Under
him there Is no question but that real
results will be obtained.
New Army Officers
Are Highly Praised
Amor lean Lake Commanders Have
Wonderful Ability, Says
Frank Cronan.
That the men who are officering
the new army gathering at Camp
Lewis, American Lake, are men of
wide understanding and wonderful
respest and admiration of the new
soldiers, is the statement of Frank
E. Cronan, young lone banker whose
wife was formerly Miss Muriel Sallng
of this city and who was among those
sent from Morrow county on Septem
ber 19. In a letter to a local friend
he sounds enthusiastic praise of con
ditions in the big army camp.
"At he present there are about 30,-
000 men here and we will have al
most 60,000 next month. It is a real
city in itself, long streets of barracks
all very orderly and well kept. We
are very well taken care of and are
very pleasantly surprised as we did
not expect very much."
On arriving at the camp all of the
new soldiers go through a receiving
station and are then assigned to a
company. They then get the ground
ings of infantry drill and are very
busy from 5:45 a. m. until 5:30 p.
m. . The non-commissioned officers
are to be taken out of the ranks, he
states, which means there is an op
portunlty for every man who enters
the camp. Mr. Cronan Is a member
of Co. C, No. 347 Machine Gun Bat
tery. Pendleton E. O.
Mr. and Mrs. Hiram Tash returned
recently from a visit of a couple of
weeks with old friends at Walla
Walla. Mr. Tash lived at Walla
Walla in the early days, along about
1862, when the mining excitement at
Ora Flno, Idaho, was at its height.
At that time the metropolis of the
Columbia basin was a very small vil
lage, but a tough one, withal, and Mr.
Tash is able to recall many interest
ing events that transpired in those
days. He thinks Walla Walla is a
mighty fine little city at this time and
there is of course nothing left to re
mind one of the pioneer days.
Roy Whltels made a business trip
Into the Monument country last week
returning on Friday. He states that
people are progressing nicely over
that way and he noted much .evl
dence of prosperity. A new bridge is
being constructed over the John Day
at Monument which makes it neces
sary that the river be forded at the
present time, and Mr. Whltels states
that many an automobile gets strand
ed in the middle of the stream with
a flooded carbureter. The new bridge
will be ready for traffic In a short
time.
F. Adams and wife of lone were in
Heppner Saturday. Mr. Adams Is tin
experienced farmer and desires to get
hold of a small farm to run for a
term of years. He wants a furnished
place and says that he can make good.
Addiess him at lone.
Food Conservation
Campaign
The campaign for enlisting the
people in the food conservation or
ganisation is well under way. En
thusiastic reports are coming in from
many counties. Morrow county must
make the right kind of a showing.
Blanks have been sent out to the
different school clerks in the county
upon which they are asked to report
the names of the heads of the house
holds in their respective districts. It
will not take long to make this re
port, and it Is hoped that these re
ports will be sent in this week.
State Superintendent Churchill Is
planning to have a large part of the
work done by the schools of the
state. The teachers and pupils will
have a chance to demonstrate their
patriotism In very practical way.
Under the direction of the teachers
the pupils will distribute the enroll
ment cards. Later they will collect
the enrollment cards, and distribute
the membership cards. The member
ship cards are to be displayed in the
windows of the homes, and they will
be a symbol of the patriotism and co
operation of the homes in which they
are displayed.
. The enrollment will be made the
week beginning Oct. 21. By a united
effort we hope to enroll close to 100
per cent, of the homes in this county.
In some districts it may be impossi
ble for the pupils to cover the entire
district. In such districts, the wo
men will be asked to assist, and they
will have the authority to draft any
men who may be needed.
Here is a chance for every CHILD
and every ADULT to enlist in the ser
vice of the country. Let us see that
Morrow county stands at the top in
the enlistment.
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE,
By S. E. Notson, Chairman.
DRAFT SLACKERS ARE
LISTED AS DESERTERS
Portland, Or., October 2. Every
man who failed to report to his local
exemption board for military service
when notified to do so is listed in the
army draft records as a deserter. A
reward of $50 in cash will be paid for
the delivery of any such deserter to
the nearest army camp or post.
Notification of this reward and in
structions to begin at once a state
wide hunt to round up slackers of this
type have been received by the Ad
jutant General from the Provost Mar
shal General at Washington.
The instructions emphasize that
the reward will be paid over upon de
livery of the deserter, regardless of
whether he is able to prove later that
his failure to report was not wilful.
The $50 is to include expenses in
curred in the delivery.
Though Oregon has a much better
record in this respect than most other
states, there are about 30 or $1500
worth of this kind of slacker-deserter
In the state at present, that number
of men who were called having failed
to report to their local exemption
boards. Their quick apprehension
and delivery to the military author
ities is on the programme.
If ordnary methods do not prove
adequate to run them down, individ
ual descriptions and pictures of each
man wanted will be sent out through
the state. To permit one of these
deserters to defy the call to military
Bervlce would be unfair to every other
man already drafted, or subject to
draft.
The military authorities are de
sirous that every police officer and
individual citizens as well join in the
campaign to catch these deserters
and turn them over to the military
authorities for punishment.
Of course, there are some cases
where failure to report may have
been Unavoidable. The Government
is determined to round up every de
serter but It has no desire to be harsh
with men who can prove that their
failure to report was not wilful.
"If, after such persons are brought
to a military authority," says the In
structions on this point, "it appears
to the military authority that their
delinquency is not wilful, they will
be forwarded to a mobilization camp
and their local board will be given
credit.
"If it appears that the delinquency
was wilful, they will be prosecuted
before court martial as deserters.
"In either case the reward is payable."
Walter Hayes is home after an ab
sence of several months. He enlisted
In the Navy and went Into training at
San Diego but was compelled to give
up the work on account of his feet go
ing fiat. He received his discharge
somu time ago.
Lester Ingram left on Thursday
last for Prescott, Arizona, where he
expects to remain for the winter. Mr.
Ingram suffers from asthma and has
found it necessary to seek another
climate. Mrs. Ingram will join her
husband at a later date, when he has
become permanently settled.
