' 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.

COOS AND CURRY BOOST
FOR RED CROSS DRIVE
When Louis J. 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.

First National Bank of Heppner, at

THE STORY
John Silverwood ("Toulumne

in California. Gordon's little daugh-
Heppner Defeats Ione in
Foot Ball Game Sunday
Heppner 18, Ione 0. 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.

SUCCESSORS TO VAUGHN & SONS
ter, Nannie, is with them as house
keeper and partner in their enter
prise. The Long brothers, men of
treacherous and jealous disposition, j
have sought to "Jump" the claim of
the two cronies, and a bitter feud has
developed.
One night "Toulumne John," chal
lenged by the Long brothers to fight
or leave the camp, decided to go ;
alone to the saloon where the miners
are wont to foregather, and settle the
matter by challenging one of the
Long brothers to a duel. He steals
away from the cabin, leaving "Ken
tuck" and Nannie to memories of
their old home in far away Ketnucky
for It Is the anniversary of "Ken
tuck's" marriage.
When "Kentuck" discovers "Tou
lumne's" bunk Is empty he suspects
that something is wrong, and starts
out. Nannie sees her father depart
and she, too, makes for the camp.
"Kentuck" arrives Just in time to be
treacherously killed by one of the
Long brothers, and dies in Nannie's
"Toulumne" sends Nannie back to
arms. After "Kentuck's" funeral
"Toulumne" sends Nannie back to
Kentucky, consigning her to Henry
Gordon, her uncle.
Arriving in Kentucky, the girl
meets opposition from Gordon's wife
a woman who had married before
and was mother of a girl about Nan
nie's age. Gordon had been called to
Lexington to attend the Legislature,
but left word with his wife that Nan
nie should be treated as though she
were his own child.
Disregarding her husbanl's ex
pressed instructions, Mrs. Gordon
