Overseas, where American soldiers are facing the enemy, a letter from home is most welcome. It is the strongest home-tie. It helps to keep the morale of the American soldier at the topmost point. Next In point of impo:.ance is the old home news paper. From this he learns what is happening among his friends. It is most important that the home news paper should follow him across the seas. Persons who wish to get this work of cheer to the boys from this com munity may do so by subscribing to this newspaper and having it address ed to the American Y. M. C. A. 12 Rue d'Auguesseau, Paris, France. The national war work council of the Y. M. C. A. will see that the paper is forwarded to the soldier at the front. It will be sent to a camp where boys from this state are sta tioned. War work secretaries in Y. M. C. A. huts overseas state that the hard est thing they have to combat is homesickness. The lads are yearn ing for news from their loved ones. The letter is first in Importance, the old home newspaper fills the void in the absence of the letter. You can help to maintain the morale of the American troops in France by sending him this paper. Think it over. l-i WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH TEX. AS? The food Administrator of Texas announced a few days ago that Texas was ready to go on an entijely wheat less ration until the food situation improves. In response to this offer, Gen. Pershing sent the following ca blegram: ; "I assure you the American' Expe ditionary Forces appreciate the sac rifice made by your great State to ward winning the war. The United States will win through sacrilces of men, money, and comforts, and the troops already here will have the op portunity through the Army publica tion, 'The Stars and Stripes,' to know part of what the largest State in the Union is doing." j Oregon may not be able to go on a wheatleas ration because it is o dif ficult to get the substitutes, but Ore gon Is moving in the right direction. Many are turning their surplus flour Into the hands of the dealers, who are authorized to pay for the flour at the market price. The dealer then reports the purchase to Mr. Houser at Portland; the Government repays the dealer. Mr. W. L. Barlow, who lives south of lone, brought in white flour and traded it for substi tutes. It was feared that the far mers might object to placing their surplus wheat on the market before May 15, as the administrator had or dered, but there seems to be very lit tle objection. This is very gratify ing. The sugar situation is improving. People are still urged to limit con sumption to three pounds per capita per month, or less, so there will be plenty of sugar for canning purposes, for the government desires that the canning of fruit be unhampered. The Domestic Science class of the Heppner public school, by their dis plays in the grocers' windows last Saturday, did much to encourage the use of potatoes. A report of their work will be sent to the Food Admin istrator at Portland. BUY BONDS, BUY THRIFT STAMPS, EAT LESS SUGAR, EAT MORE POTATOES, SAVE WHEAT, AND HELP WIN THE WAR. ., S. E.

United States Senator McNary, in' a telegram received at the McNary headquarters here yesterday, stated ; that he was not in sympathy with ex-; Governor West's recent proposal that ' that the ex-Governor, R. N. Stanfield and Judge King retire from the Sen-1 atorlal field and leave it clear to the1 Senator. Senator McNary- gave as' his reasons that the people are en titled "to have a free hand in the se lection of their Senator," and that he desires no candidate to make "a po litical or personal sacrifice" for him. Senator McNary further declared that he had submitted his caudidacy "to the voters without reference to) any other person's ambition," and that what any of his opponents in 1 either party did or might do was en-' tirely "upon their initiative." In declining to accept ex-Governor West's proposal, Mr. Stanfield, candi date against Senator McNary, and Judge King, candidate against Mr. West, commented upon the proposal! at length, and the McNary headquar ters here telegraphed the Senator for his views upon it. His message was in response to this wire, and reads as follows: "Telegraphic advice having reach ed me relative to ex-Governor West's proposal that he and Messrs. Stan field and King all withdraw from the primary contest, I desire to say that Mr. West's proposal came to me as a complete surprise. Being a candi date, I am not made the confidant of my opponents for the Senatorship in either party. What they do or may not do is entirely upon their initia tive and not through any understand ing with me. I have submitted my candidacy to tie voters without re ference to any other person's ambi tion and free from any notion or pur pose that anyone should retire in my favor or make a political or personal sacrifice for me. Such a proposal does not command my sympathy, as I desire the voters to have a free hand in the selection of their Senator."
