Even five hundred dollars more could not buy you greater utility, because the Linwood provides everything a family could possibly require for daily motoring service. Comfort, roominess, sturdiness, reliability and beauty those are the five qualities that especially distinguish this car among the light sixes of popular price. You will like the Linwood and become as enthusiastic over its merits as the thousands of owners now driving it. Ask for a demon' stration.

To the Boys and Girls of Morrow County: Greetings for a Happy New Year. Dear Boys and Girls: You, of course, realize that this country Is at war, that our boys are already on the battlefields of Europe. We know. not when the report will reach us that our own boys are clash ed in battle. Hundreds of tons of provisions must cross the ocean and brave the dangers of the submarine, for the welfare not only of our own boys at the front, but also to replenish the almost empty bread-basket of the world. We must win this war and to do so our allies must be fed and equipped. This is Uncle Sam's task. A man's Job. Are you willing to help? Will you join the army of boys and girls, who though not dressed In khaki, must be kept up to the highest point of efficiency in service and in telligent devotion to life. This army back of the lines must be in good fighting form, if the boys in the lines are able to form a fight that will be successful. The Industrial Club this year has been put on a war basis and should have the right of way. Show your pa triotism with a hoe "Seed more and we will teed more." I have received seed from the Government and you may. have it for the asking. Will the boys and girls clubs show a bigger in crease this year than ever before. This is my hope. Our fair this fall should speak more loudly than dull words on thin paper. Mr. E. J. Klemme of the State Normal School at Belltngham, Wash., says, "Every man, woman and child should be able to say, 'Say, Woodrow, dear, did you hear the noise that's just gone round. We came along one hundred strong and plowed up all the ground. We dropped In both the spuds and beans and planted wheat for all. We mobilized the turnips, too, and answered your call.' " The mothers can assist the gov ernment and the state in this great movement by encouraging the boys and girls in the home toward some productive enterprise. It has been estimated that a boy costs on an average $80 per year as an actual cash outlay. If the boy can earn part or all of this by keeping a pen of chickens, or taking care of a pig, or calf that otherwise would have perished, he is doing something tow ard conservation of food.

Turner has received the following letter from her son Sam, who recently enlisted in the navy and is now in training at the Goat Island station in San Francisco bay. Dec. 31, 1917. Dear Mother: Received your good letter and pic tures and was glad to get them. I think the pictures are just fine of us all. How are the ones I had taken of myself? Of course you don't need to icnd me one, for I get to look at my self every day and am sure a beau iful bird with my hair clipped short. It sure seems strange that I have Vt received more of your letters. They must be held up some place. The first thing we do here is roll iut of bed at five o'clock in the morn ing and the bugle blows at 5:20 for assembly. Wo all form in companies, then we get orders, or some of the boys are told what they are to do. We remain in line about five or ten minutes then we are dismissed until 5:30 a. m. Then we line up again for breakfast. We have to march single file, get a tray, a plate, a cup, knife and fork and then they hand us the eats as we go by. It takes about two hours to feed the bunch now. It did take longer but they have sent a good many away now and are sending more every day. - We have plenty to eat as it is but we don't get many desserts. Of course we can't expect many with such a bunch to feed. January. 1. Elra Hayes came Into my tent last night with a letter he had just received from his mother. He wanted me to read it, so we got interested In talking and the first thing we knew it was almost 9 o'clock All lights must be out and everybody in bed by 9. I got a new Job this morning. They put me in as mess cook. I went on at 8:30 in the morning and got off at 2:30 In the afternoon. All I have to do is to carry the eats from the kit chen out where the boys march along with their trays, set the tables and clear them off. Didn't get any wash ing dishes, but I might as I have to go on duty again at 4 p. m. Will close now for they are blowing the bugle for us mess cooks. We had a swell new years feed. January 2. I had all I could eat, Just got released from mess cook work. I ate until I couldn't eat any more. I would like to keep trat job fo.r you can help yourself to most any thing In the kitchen. Our new years dinner consisted of potato salad, fried chicken, cranber ry sauce, dressing, soup with crack ers, mince pie, bread and butter and a piece of common stir cake with a little ice cream to wash it down. We moved our company grounds again Monday. Its a great deal bet ter than the one we had. We are right against the assembly grounds and back to our tents. Besides the tents we now have electric lights and we can see to read or write in the eve ning. There are two fellows in the same tent with me. They are both real nice fellows, one of them being from Denver, Col., by the name of Tweed and the other, Tyson, from Portland. The rest of the Heppner boys are strung up and down the street ac cording to alphabetical order. We don't hear a great deal around here about the war, but have beard some of them say the Kaiser is talk ing peace. Its about time he Is coughing up for It won't be long un til I'll be out after his scalp. I received a nice little Christmas present from Lillian last .night. Pic tures of Jeanette and- Annabelle, some dates, a handkerchief and a real nice piece of cake. Love to all, SAM. U. S. Navy Training Station, Camp D Co. B, San Francisco.

"The silver dollar saved may be more effective than the steel bullet spent." Now I am in hopes that we may have a good strong club in Heppner. The rural districts are doing beauti fully and the pupils are doing their bit. Every boy or girl in the county over 9 and under 18 should be doing some form of club work. A certificate of award will be given to each club in the state where 75 of the enrolled members complete their work and make their reports and exhibits. Boys get busy with the handycraft project and make something useful this year. Girls, sign up for baking and learn how to make war bread. All those pupils in Heppner who wish to join this army to be "Soldiers of the Commissary" this year, please call at my office Saturday, Jan. 12. Those outside of Heppner may write me.
