IN PLAYING PATHE DISCS THERE ARE NO NEEDLES TO CHANGE NO METAL POINTS TO DIG INTO ' AND RUIN THE SURFACE OF THE RECORDS Case Furniture Company WHAT IS A "SMrLEAGE BOOK?" Brigadier General Foltz, command ing officer at Camp Lewis, cordially (approves the "smlleage book" Idea of making life more pleasane to the . boys In the cantonments. I What is a smlleage book? A little ' budget of bound five-cent coupons 20 in the dollar size, 100 In the $5 kind which generous-hearted men and women will want to purchase and send as a gift to some soldier boy. These coupons will purchase high class entertainment at the canton ment theaters. The theaters are built, the attractions secured. For an admission charge of 10, 20 or 30 cents the boys will see two or three dollar shows, a provision made pos sible by the fact that in many cases famous actors, singers and vaudeville entertainers are donating their tal ents. Four distinct lines of entertain ment have been engaged. The first week will be given over to famous New York companies- direct from Broadway, The second week will bring the highest class vaudeville. The third week will feature Lyceum attractions. The fourth will be "home talent" week. Out of the hosts of men In training a program will be made up at each cantonment, and high-class entertainment is as sured by the fact that in all the camps are men drawn from the pro fessional theatrical, musical and lec ture world. The plan ta continuous In the fore going order. It has the approval of the war department, and a pledge is given that only clean and wholesome entertainment will be presented. Here Is patriotic, practlal philan thropy of the highest kind. A smlle age book will be a gift appreciated by any soldier, and will be particularly welcome to the greater number who have little left out of their $30 a month after they have sent half to de pendents, paid for their army Insur ance and made provision for their Liberty bond subscriptions. A book can not possibly go amiss. If some favored soldier should get two or three he will treat his less for tunate friends. The plan will present a strong appeal. Wm. Lowen and wife of Hardman and Frank Frntes of Eight Mile were visitors In Heppner Tuesday. Mr. Lowen says they have experienced a remarkable winter in th Hardman section thus far and grass has been plentiful. He has just moved his cat tle down to the Fratea ranch on Eight Mile. Mr, Frntes says grain on his place Is growing fast and he looks forward to a big harvest. 1 9 -jet lone Woman Holds County Record For Knitting For Soldiers.

Those old-time French pioneers with their traditions, reaching beyond the sens,, so full of Interest to us all, are rapidly passing away. . Only on the WALLACE BRUCE AMSBARY printed page can they now be seen, yet the memory of them will never die. The historian and the poet, the great thought preservers that link the past with the present, have done their work, and the names, habits, customs, language, and tradition of the dear old Frenchmen will live for ever. One of the most widely celebrated writers who has preserved the memory of tlint dying race Is Mr. Wallace Bruce Amsbnrry, the poet and Creole French impersonator, who will appear here on our Lyceum course.
