A WONDERFUL year is be
hind us and we believe a
still more wonderful year
is ahead of us. Your friendship
and goodwill during 1917 have
been enjoyed and appreciated.
We shall do our utmost to de
serve a continuation and increase
of same during 1918, and thus
help you as well as ourselves enjoy
a full measure of New Year happi
ness. TUM-A-LUM LUMBER-COMPANY
that they secured 1 subscription out of every 18.
This is a splendid record for the boys of Anlerica and a hope
ful sign for the future of the country when the boys of the land
are willing and able to perform such valuable public service.
It is to leave them such national heritage as our forefathers
of the Revolution bequeathed to their descendants that the pro
ceeds of the Liberty Loan are to be used.

A bunch of young hoodlums who evidently think they have
the privilege of going to any extreme when up to their many
pranks, just about reached the limit Wednesday night when
they broke out a lot of glass in the ticket window of a local
theater. The law should take care of such irresponsible chil
dren, if the parents will not.

To the Public:
JJ The success of a Bank may be
attributed to: a knowledge of
its particular locality, a desire to ren
der personal and individual service
to promote the welfare of its cus
tomers, and resources able to meet
all demands.
The First National Bank
meets these requirements.
We Invite Your oAccounts
PEACE AND PROSPERITY.
The Gazette-Times extends to its host of readersreetinir-;
of the season. Let us all work together as never before, in the
true spirit of American patriotism to the end that a speedy r ial
lasting peace be brought to a democratized World. That the
year of 1918 may be frought with blessings to the people of our
country, at home or abroad, and that our men in uniform will all
be returned safely to us at no far distant date, is our wish and
our prayer.
The past year has been one of prosperity for the people of
Morrow county and seemingly the horrors of war have not in
vaded this peaceful territory. We should be truly thankful.
What the new year holds forth for us we cannot say. But with
a firm and steadfast resolution we can meet the future with the
same spirit that dominated our forefathers when they also bat
tled for those same principles of liberty.
Let us all make sacrifices during the year 1918, thereby
giving every possible bit of strength to our young manhood of
the nation who are making such sacrifices for us. Let us stand
bv the President of this United States and uphold the adminis
tration in this critical period. And, above all,-let us keep ever
before us the thought that we are all Americans and as such we
must stand ever ready to do the bidding when duty calls. The
principles for which we are fighting alone make life worth liv
ing, and it must indeed be disheartening to the King of Prussia
to know that the American people are into the struggle to the
last mm to maintain these principles.
THE BOY SCOUTS AND THE LIBERTY LOAN.
The report of the work of the Boy Scouts of America in the
Second Liberty Loan drive made public recently shows that
they .were directly responsible for the sale of $101,133,G00 in
bonds.
This means that they produced about 5 per cent of the to
tal subscriptions to the loan, and the number they sold show

ISHES you all a Happy
New Year. Our services
next Sunday will center
around the thought of the
closing and opening year. Where
are the years in their flight taking
us? What are we getting out of
them in permanent values? ' That
is, in character for other values
we must leave behind in the end.
What are we putting into them
that is, of good will and good
deeds?
Begin the new year right by a
purpose to turn away from care
and pleasures at least one day in
the week and to join your neigh
bors in public worship. Red Cross,
Y. M. C. A., and modern democra
cy all have their birth and inspir
ation in the christian church. The
same is true of many other good
institutions. You are enjoying the
benefits of the Influences which
God is sending into the world and
the community through His peo
ple; are you encouraging tin;
churches by attending their ser
vices? Come out to the church of your
preference next Sunday and so do
your share toward making them
strong for righteousness in the
community and in the nation.
Dark clouds hover over us as
we enter the new year.- Shall we
not turn humbly and reverently to
God and seek his blessing.
H. A. NOTES, Pastor.
SOME GOOD ADVICE
Strengthened ,y Heppner Kxper
iences. Kidney disease is too dangerous to
neglect. At the first sign of back
ache, headache, dizziness or bladder
disorders, you should give the weak
ened kidneys prompt attention. Eat
little meat, take things easier and
use a reliable kidney tonic. There's
no other kidney medicine so well rec
ommended as Doan's Kidney Pills.
Heppner people rely on them. Here's
one of the many statements from
Heppner people.
Mrs. A. G. Devore says: "Speak
ing from past experience, I gladly ,
recommend Doan's Kidny ePills. I
know they are a medicine of merit
and I couldn't recommend a more re
liable one."
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy get
Doan's Kidney Pills the same that
I Mirs. DeVore had. Foster-Mllburn
