The First Replacement
Regiment of Engineers
A DIFFERENT ENGINEER ORGANIZATION
This Regiment was formed ltfremher 14th, 1017, at WAahingtom
Barracks. 1. C, for the express purpose of supplying the various En
gineer Units of the V. S. Army with skilled mechanics and technic
ally trained men.
HOW IT DIFFERS
Upon enlistment the skilled man Is sent through a training coarse de
signed to adapt his technical knowledge to military needs. Tlia is
divided into two parts:
MILITARY That he may be able to defend himself, the recruit is
first taught the fundamentals of military science. Instruction
in the use of the rilie and bayonet is given until proficiency is
obtained. Strength and health are gained by a system of physi
cal exercise.
TKCHXHVL The outstanding feature of the course is tha traininff
given in the Military Trade Schools. Here, under competent in
structors, the Engineer soldier learns how technical skill is ap
plied to the conduct of the war. He comes out of these Schools
ready to take an effective place in the Engineer Vnit and to "de
liver the goods."

FIREWORKS PROHIBITED
Heppner, Oregon, June 25, 'IS.
The Fire Marshal Department of
Oregon is making a special appeal to
city officials of Oregon to assist in
the waging of a campaign for a sane
and safe Fourth of July.
It is believed that there are people
who might take advantage of this op
portunity, under the guise of a pa
triotic demonstration, to inflict un
told damage on property and war
supplies by explosions resulting in
disastrous fires.
In line with this appeal and in har
mony with the action taken by other
Mayors of the State of Oregon, I
hereby prohibit the sale and use of
fire-works of all description whatso
ever in the City of Heppner July 3,
4, and 5, 1918. The cooperation of
all citizens is asked in order that all
food supplies, war materials and
other necessities to support our boys
over the sea may be fully protected.
W. W.MEAD, Mayor.
