I came awav so thrilled and moved bv THE FOL'R HORSE MEN OF THE APOCALYPSE that I had the same feeling l exper ienced the first and only time I saw Sarah Bernhardt. I didn't want to po home, hut to walk miles and miles under the spell of what I had seen. I may seem a bit superlative in my appreciation of this film hut o me it amounts to a climax in the entire history of the screen. Last night marked a hirhday. The eighth muse had come of age. .Mr. Ingram, Miss Mathis, Mr. Ihanez, every one in fact connected with the masterpiece, is to be congratulated to weave that enormous story into a tapestry the size of a motion picture screen, and at the same rime to keep its integrity of form, purpose and beauty is artistry raised to the nth power. I'm a raher querulous picture goer, not half satisfied with conditions, but seeing the "Four Horsemen" has renewed my faith in the enormous potentialities of the screen.

For the leisure momenta of folks who know how to have them 5 ,w lation," a Goldwyn Picture, coming to the Star Theatre Sunday, Dec. 31. One of the hardest bits of acting for children is the sleeping scene. The little eyelids will flutter open. Rogers gathers up the little ones in this picture, and so realistically does he make tbem feel the soothing ef fect of his crooning voice, that the children put over their little scene like experienced actors. If the au dience will watch, the words of the old song as Rogers sings it are easily giseernabie. The remarkable acting of the chil dren, Robert DeVillbiss as "Rip" and Jeanette Trebaol at "Patch" has caused many favorable comments among reviewers and critics. Certified Potatoes Grow 'Em How can certified seed potatoes be produced? This question coming from all sections of the state will be answered during part of the farm crops work given in the winter short course next January. The agricul tural college has been encouraging the production of better kinds of po tatoes and there will be a series of lectures Bhowing how to do this work. Special emphasis will be placed on the control of troublesome diseases. Many farmers are handicapped by lack of storage facilities for their potatoes. Believing that an expen sive storing place is essential they frequently do not provide storage when in many instances it could be made very conveniently out of ma terials already at hand. The potato storage problem as well as the grad ing and marketing of potatoes will be a feature of the crop work in the winter short course at the agricul tural college next January.

Wise Men HE Christmas season annually brings to mankind the thoughtful hour of serious retrospection and the importance of governing their affairs in a manner befitting wise men. The Spirit of Christmas is the ideal in the absolute, but quite often it carries with it hardships to men of families and brings them face to face with their own shortcomings and failures to sub stantially build structures of supply for those they love. Maybe such hours have been yours and maybe right at this moment you realize the necessity of changing your course. It i3 never too late, you know. If so, we feel we are conferring a service in again calling your attention to the fundamentals of peace and plenty which, briefly, are Vision and Thrift. Vision is the understanding that all is well with our ever-progressing world. Thrift is a common sense conservation of our tal entswhich may be labor or money. After all, ffloney is only stored-up labor. So to save money is to intelligently store up labor to distribute or equalize it over the span of life. The New Year is at hand not to dissipate on idlle resolutions which will never be kept. On the other hand a sincere desire to build up an independence for your loved ones and your own old age, will be its own resolution. This institution wishes you success in such resolves and stands in Heppner ready to serve you in fulfillment of such worthy endeavor. First National Bank .i
