PAGE SIX HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, MARCH 1, 1928. Thank You, Brothers A Symposium of Some of the Nice Things Written About Our Special Edition That We Appreciate Last week we presented letters and newspaper comment upon our 45th Anniversary Special Booster Edition, and as these continue to reach our desk, we feel that It is not in a spirit of boasting, but rather a feeling of just pride that prompts us to present this week these further comments upon our efforts: From Bend Bulletin: One of the most impressive special editions issued by Oregon newspapers in the last year is that of the Heppner Gazette Times, a copy of which has re cently been received by The Bulletin. It is the 45th anniversary number and, with five sections of eight pages each, gives an excellent presentation of the resources of Heppner and Morrow county. Elbert Bede's Cottage Grove Sentinel: The Heppner Gazette Times Is to be complimented upon a special 40-page issue, frankly called a booster edition. It is a complete exposition of what Morrow county, where wheat is king, has to offer the world. The appearance of the edition is such as to Indicate that HeDoner must have a print shop capable of producing printing equal to that usually coming irom cities several times its size. From Editor Canaday in Halfway Herald: There came to our bands this week a 32-page Booster Edition of the Heppner Gazette Times, and believe me it is some sheet carrying full page adver tisements of the business houses done in red type, and photographs of their wheat farms of which they are so proud: their big. wonderful school buildings; their fine churches and homes- their io!id banks: and above all. their boosters, which are their greatest asset Heppner brothers, we have all the thincs vou have but a 32-paee paper and we might have that some day we ought to have an 8-page now, for Hepp ner only has Halfway beaten by about 8 or 9 hundred population, yours being 1500. But a newspaper is built on circula tion and advertising. It also takes advertising to build a country and a town, so let's co-operate. Heppner Correspondent in Pen dleton East Oregonian The big booster edition of the Hepp ner Gazette Times came off the press during the past week and the G-T is to to be congratulated on its appearance as well as the subject matter that went into its makeup. The edition is a credit to any community, and those from afar off who read of the things that we have to offer here will be influenced a great deal if they have thoughts of seeking a new home. About 3000 copies of this edition were printed and copies freely given to all who want them to send away to friends, or to anyone that might be influenced to come this way. H. L. St Clair, who with Chas. E. St Clair and Lena C. St Clair publish the G res ham Outlook . twice a week, in the live little city just out east of Portland, sends us this message: I have looked through your 45th an niversary issue of February 9 with great care and increasing interest and wish to highly commend you for its fine appearance and your treatment of the subject matter. I have shown it to our workers in various departments and pointed out its excellence. Last summer I made a trip to Wal lowa Lake, over the Old Oregon Trail, and saw the cutoff to Heppner. I shali be more desirous than ever to visit your city and section after seeing your tine booster issue. Even with the prosperous and attrac tive background that your locality haj I cannot see how you could put over such a very complete and attractive is sue. .

All together it is an achievement Our old friend and follow towns man, J. L.

Huelet their vice president, writes: This is to acknowledge receipt of a copy of your Forty-fifth Anniversary Edition which just came to our atten tion. We cannot resist the opportunity of complimenting you on the splendid pa per that you have celebrated this re- markable event with. Forty-five years in business today has a great signifi cance and is a testimonial which re flects ereat credit on the institution and personnel during that period. 11 19 rvci'giu&ciitie lai I mat a iwiii- munity in no small degree is judged by its newspaper, and on this assump tion you have contributed a large de gree to the progress and recognition that Heppner has achieved.

Editor Boyd in Athena Press: Over the span of 38 years' newspaper work in this county, the Press man has no recollection of receiving on his desk a special edition of a country paper that compared in excellency with the 46th anniversary edition of the Hepp ner Giizette Times, now before us. This anpciftl number would be a credit to any nublication in a city of 25.000 population, ana It puis it over aiiyumiB we imvc ever seen in the special edition line coming from anywhere out of Eastern Oregon or Eastern Washington.

The Mew STA R CAR Will Soon Be Here Greater Power Greater Speed When the power plant of the STAR was cre ated five years ago it was thought that no im provement could be made. With its Red Seal Continental Motor, STAR has broken all records for economy, power and hill-climbing. Now, in keeping with progress, more power has been added through higher compression; although fundamentally the motor remains the same as that which has given such un qualified satisfaction. Sixty miles an lpur is possible! The pick-up is faster than ever. The Star Coupe The Star Coupe is the ideal model for practical and economical use by bus iness and professional men and wom en.

STAR standard equipment, such as: Masury Patented Rub ber Motor-Mounting, Bendix" 4-wheel brakes, Bohnalite pis tons, Morse silent timing chain drive and Spicer universal joints are only a few of the features that are identical with those found on many of the highest-priced cars. Long semi-elliptic springs, graded for varying weights, make the use of shock absorbers unnecessary. STAR is one of the easiest-riding cars built, regardless of price. Full over size 28x4.75 Fisk balloon tires are standard equipment on all STAR Cars. Graceful, sweeping full-crown fenders emphasize the stream line effect demanded by the modern motorist.
