AS OTHERS SEE HIM.
When the American soldier abroad
reads what the literary folk of
France and England write about him
it must take his mind to a great ex
tent off the wrinkled front of grim
vlsaged war. There can not help be
ing a certain choice humor for the
doughboy in being regarded as some
thing worth studying and analyzing
an interesting and complicated phe
nomenon! that has to be "interpret
ed." In a recent Issue or a London daily
there are two "studies" of the Amer
ican soldier as a type. In both of
them the discovery was made that the
American is, in comparison with oth
er kinds of soldiers, something of a
dude. Mention is made repeatedly of
his "speekless grooming" and of the
"clean-cut lines" of his uniform.
But the two English "interpreta
tions" of the American fighter differ
radically on one point. That is with
regard to what the Americans them
selves would call their "mixing" abil
ity. One London writer, a man, rhap
sodizes at some length on the sympa
thetic nature and the frank friendli
ness of the Americans with whom lie
had been chumming, while the other,
a woman, finds them serenely aloof,
dignified and unbending, self-conscious
and alert, and lacking the "ma
tey" characteristics of the British
Tommy, This is a decided shock to
us at home, wiio have been taught to
consider the frigid and unapproach
able Englishman as typical.
It may be said in this connection
that the English are at least thawing
cut sufficiently to adopt a new Amer
ican slang bit. They have taken up
"attaboy" with much warmth, and
f'nd it a most satisfactory condensed
phrase of approval. Spokesman-Review.

SOME MAN. I
He may wear a last year's straw
fat; his finger-nails may need mani
curing; his vest may hang a little
loose and his pants may bag at the
knees; his face may show signs of a
wond-day's growth, and the tin din
ner bucket that he carries may be full
f f dents and doughnuts; but don't
you call him "the old man." He's
your father. For years and years he
has been rustling around to get
tfiings together. Never once has he
failed to do the right thing by you.
He thinks you are the greatest boy
on earth, bar none, even though you
plaster your hair back, wear smart
clothes, smoke cigarettes and fail to
bring home a cent. He is the man
who won the love and life partner
nhlp of the greatest woman on earth
Your Mother. He is SOME MAN,
and not "the old man." If you win
as good a wife as he did you will
have to go some.
The farmers of the country have in

Increased acreage on their farms.
I.S.S, DlSllES
While there has been a lot of en
thusiastic work during the past week
to put Morrow county over the top
in the W. S. S. drive, and many u.
the districts have raised their quotas,
and quite a number doubled the am
ounts asked of them, yet the returns
have come In so slowly from some
quarters that Chairman Woodson Is
at present unable to give the figures
showing exact results.
The estimate to date Is slightly
over $50,000.00, and two principal
districts, Lexington and lone, not re
ported, as well as a number of small
er districts. These will doubtless
make good reports, and when all re
turns have been made. Morrow's quo
ta of $90,000.00 "should be well In
hand.
At present the districts over the
top in the drive for sale of war sav
ings stamps, are No. 8, A. Henrik
sen, chairman; No. 38, Chas. Cox,
chairman; No. 23, S. J. Devine, chair
man; No. 19, Frank Glasscock, chair
man; No. 34, Ralph I. Thompson,
chairman and No. 2S, Phebe A. Bar
tholomew, chairman, Heppner dis
trict reports $12,(565 of its quota of
$16,695, with returns not yet com
plete.
Chairman Woodson is still optimis
tic and expresses the opinion that the
final report will see Morrow county
over the top fn this drive. It trans
pires that there was considerable con
fusion in regard to the war stamp
drive and it has taken a lot of work
to get people straightened out and
brought to a realization of the im-
portance as well as the valnof this
work, both to the government ana
the individual investor. Too many
have thought it something that was
intended for the women and children
who had small sums to nvest. Not
a few, however have seen that It was
even a better investment than Liber
ty Bonds, and they have gone the li
mit.

State Police Entertained Itere.
A company of 45 members of the
Oregon State Police, under Cant. E,
H. Williams, arrived In Heppner
from Condon on Thursday evening
last and were the guests of the Hepp
ner Home Guards at a ball given in
the Fair pavilion. The company gave
a drill exhibition oti Main street ear
ly in the evening that attracted a lot
of attention. These men are gather
ed from over the state and are under
the pay of the Federal government
and the State government jointly. It
will be their duty to police the state,
and after about two weeks of inten
sive training at the Pendleton head
quarters, they are to be sent out in
squads in different parts of Eastern
uregon to guard grain neids, ware-
houpes and other lines of industry
and Heppner will have one of these
squads stationed here. They are a
determined set of men, well armed
and drilled for the work they have
to do. The company went on to Pen
dleton headquarters Friday by auto.
Superb Artoraft Picture to Re Shown
at the Star Theatre Next Tues- .
duy and Wednesday.
Portraying one of those unique
characters of the west, with which
his name is so Intimately. associated,
William S. Hart has in his new Art
craft picture, "The Tiger Man," a ve
hicle that is bound to be received
with pleasure by his countless admir
ers. This Is the story of the fierce
leader of several outlaws, who long
have terrorized the avenues of travel
to the gold fields In the early days
of the rush to the new El Dorado.
In a wagon train on the desert Is
3 pretty young woman, Ruth Ing
ram, who is accompanying her hus
band to the gold fields on a religious
mission. The supply of water is ex
hausted and Mrs. Ingram goes in
search of aid. She is met by Hawk
Parsons, the bandit, who, after hear
ing her story, goes to the assistance
f the imperilled emigrants. With
this meeting, a new light dawns upon
Hawk's soul, and he determines to
possess himself of this woman.
The train is attacked by Indians but
the savages are driven away. With
the approach of Federal troops of
cavalry, "The Tiger Man" realizes
that his capture is' inevitable, and he
prevents the emigrants from lighting
a beacon to attract the attention of
the soldiers. He finally consents to
this, however, on one condition that
Ruth Ingram accompany him. This
she agrees to do, and, swinging her
up before him on his horse, u. gal
lops away.
How this woman regenerated him
and appeals to the latent good which
slumbers in his heart. Is best told by
the picture itself, which will be seen
at the Star theatre, next Tuesday and
Wednesday, July 9 and 10.
A wealthy American tourist, ob
taining work in an Italian vineyard
for a lark, meets the niece and house
keeper of the owner, Caruiel Myers
in her new Bluebird picture, "The
Wine Girl," to be seen at Star Thea
tre Friday.
A pretty love story is started, re
plete with obstacles and troubles cre
ated by the wealthy American par
ents and a rival, who is a member of
the Italian secret societies.
Carmel Mjers Is supported by Ken
neth Harlan, Rex De Roselli, E. A.
Warren and Katherlne Kirkwood.
Character parts are undoubtedly
the forte of Carmel Myers, Bluebird's
youngest star, and in "The Wine
Girl," she Is in her element.

Pleasant and Profitable Social.
A very successful ice cream social
was given by the Star Auxiliary of
Rhea Creek for the benefit of the Red
Cross on the evening of June 22nd,
and the sum of $44.20 was netted
from the sale of ice cream and lemon
ade. There were present about two
hundred people, representing Hard-
man, Eight Mile, Liberty, Gooseberry
and Heppner. A pleasant evening of
games and music was reported by all.
The members of the Auxiliary wish
to thank the people for their help
and patronage, and this paper wish
es to apologize, also for not printing
this report last week. In our haste
to get the paper on the press it was
