' slights Nannie and treats her despic ably. An old colored "mammy" be friends the girl, and makes her life bearable. Mrs. Gordon has determin ed that her" daughter shall wed Tom Doling, a rich young planter who lives neighbor to the Gordons. When Boling called one day upon Rachel Gordon, the old "mammy" on mischief bent, sent Nannie to open the door. From that moment Rachel Gordon's chances to "make a great match" were at an end. Without knowing the havoc she had wrought, Nannie immediately became an ob ject of Mrs. Gordon's special perse cution; and to relieve the girl from her unpleasant situation, the colored "mammy", took Nannie to the home of Mrs. Morgan, a wealthy widow In the neighborhood, where she remain ed until Henry Gordon returned from the Legislature. When Gordon discovered the condi tion of affairs, he promptly installed Nannie in the station he originally Intended she should occupy In his borne. There Tom Boling meets her, pays court and ultimately proposes. The wedding day is set, but Mrs. Gor don, adhering to her original antipa thy to Nannie, declines to aid her with her wedding dress. Bravely as she can Nannie makes the most of the situation, without disclosing to Mr. Boling her predicament. Only a few days before the day of the wedding a great trunk arrives at the Gordon home, addressed to Nan nie, and therein she finds beautiful dresses to gladden her heart and make bright her wedding day. "Tou lumne" (who follows the trunk) has struck gold; Nannie, as his partner, is rich, and in the course of events "Toulumne" and Mrs. Morgan, the widow who has befriended Nannie, are married. Thus runs the story of "A Ken tucky Cinderella," to be displayed In Bluebird photoplays at the Star theatre on Saturday, December 15, with dainty Ruth Clifford, Rupert Ju lian and an all-star cast presenting one of the prettiest photoplays ever screened.

Simpson, of North Bend, learned he was appointed Coob and Curry County chairman of the Christmas Membership Drive for the American Red Cross, he got busy at once. Not only did he complete organiza tion iii3ide-two days of every precinct lu the two counties, but he made the remarkable offer that be would fi nance any citizen of those counties who was unable to put up the $1 re quired for membership in the Red CroBS. "I will provide the $1 membership fee for everyone in Coos and Curry counties, who furnishes a genuine ex cuse for inability to Join the Red Cross," said Mr. Simpson. If any are found the names will be turned In by campaign workers, and each will secure a membership with the compliments of Mr. Simpson. Mr. Simpson declared that both Coos and Curry counties will go over their quotas when he called at cam paign headquarters in Portland. Henry E. Reed, State Campaign Man ager, assured him there were other counties that would equal his record, if not surpass it. W. P. Mahoney, cashier of the First National Bank of Heppner, at tended the annual convention of the Oregon Wool Growers held In The Dalles last week.

Thus stood the score at the end of the final quar ter in the Football game played at the depot grounds in this city last Sunday afternoon. The receipts of the game were turned over to the Red Cross. Although rather a lop-sided score, the game was not as uneven as the score might Indicate. The contest was waged in the middle of the field during the greater part of the game and only occasional bursts of speed were shown by both teams'. Only once or twice did the boys from down the valley threaten the goal line of the- locals. Heppner's star backfield showed up to a good advantage, "Bill" Crawford carrying the ball over for two of the three touchdowns and "Chick" Becket, brother of the world famous Johnnie Becket, crossed over for the third one. Nicholson and Lapninn took the hall at various times for healthy gains. For Ione, Roy Blake, "Rusty" Cochran and Werner and "Dutch" Rietmann performed well in the back field. These two teams will probably clash in a return game at Ione In the near future. Pave Wilson of Heppner and Wal ter Dobyns of Ione officiated in the game Sunday.
