You Deserve 1t

You deserve the Goodyear
quality when you buy a tire.
You deserve Fortified Tires,
with the No-Rim- Cut feature,
the OMAR cure, our extra
strong fabric, our number Of
plies, You deserve in anti-skids
our AH-Weather tread, tough,
double-thick and resisiless.
These things have brought
Goodyear the largest sale in
the world. They are saving our
users millions Of dollars yearly.

This is to prove that you
can't Judge tires by looks.


Here are two Goodyear
tires, seemingly identical. But
one is built like many of its
rivals. Goodyear extras are
omitted. , The other has those
hidden values. And those I'M
seen extras, on this years out
put, will cost us $1,635,000.
This years betterments
alone add to our cost $780,
600 yearly. = Yet our 1915
price reduction saves our
users about FIVE million dollars.

High School Sophs Vanquish
Seniors But Quit Too Soon

Though the high school sopho-
mores successfully defended their
painted numerals on the old fire
house on the high school lot last
night and administered q signal de-
feat to the senior stalwarts, when
they came to school this morning
they found the hated numerals "1G'
adorned the walls Immediately they
set to work with paint and brush and
replaced their own "1S".
BY the terms of the agreement, the
sophomores were required to defend
their numerals against erasure until
midnight. They defeated the upper
classmen in the mix early in the ev-
ening and upon the retirement o.
the vanquished, established a guard
around the building to protect the
numerals against further attack
Probably the members OF the guard
grew cold and sleepy and became
convinced that the seniors had Civ
en- up for the evening, At any rate
the guard broke up and went up
some ~ minutes before the midnight
hour.
From a hiding place Harold Ma
loney and Emil siebert, two seniors
watched their departure and, nc
sooner had the last OF the sophs van
ished. than they were busy with pain'
and brush. They claim they put on
their numerals before midnight but
the sophs contend that 1T couldn't

that they are justified In having re

result may be another mix.
The sophs assembled at the build.
ing before o'clock last night and
formed a Gordon about the building,
AT 1890 from around the corner of
the high school building the coatless
seniors charged. In a moment there
was excitement aplenty for the big
crowd of juniors, freshmen and
townspeople to watch. The boys
wrestled with each other furiously
but at no time were the sophs in
danger.
In the beginning they outnumber-
ed the seniors by a good margin and
before the evening was oyer had
about As to the seniors 81. The Sc
niors, however. had bunch of ath-
letes Gordon. Minis, Siebert, Malon-
ey, Boylen. Russell, Fowler, Kerrick,
Callison and others and relied upon
their strength for victory However,
the sophs were not without some
brawny ones. too, such as Casey, sny-
der, Bowman, Hargett, Grant ana
Fitz Gerald being anything but puny.
Some Of these latter were a match
handed for some OF the seniors, bat
It took three or four to keep down
such scrappers as Gordon and

FESTIVITIES TO Be UNIQUE

Folk Dances VIII be Given Under
Direction Of Miss Boyd--santa
Claus Feature.

The principal details OF the celebra-
tion Christmas eve for the children Of
the city have practically been com.
pleted and the affair will doubtless
be one OF enjoyment to old and young
alike. At meeting Of the CONNER
cial association yesterday afternoon.
all committees were merged under
the single direction of the Commercial
club. and the minor details will now
be worked out. Dr. Vincent and Will
liam Clark comprise the executive
committee Of the Commercial body
and they will have direct charge OF
the plans
While the parent-teachers associ-
alton will assist. 1t will be subordinate
to the executive committee, as will
also the merchants OF the city who
secured the evergreen trees to deco
rate the streets. It is estimated that
the expense Of the celebration will
amount to about $500.
The big Christmas tree. now in
place at Court and Main streets will
be loaded with 1900 bags Of candy for
the children. Santa Claus will dis
tribute these sweets to the little ones.
Jack Robinson has been in communi.
cation with Mr. Claus the past few
days and can assure the children that
His Majesty will be here on the date
specified to help the youngsters have
a good time. AS reindeers are re-
ported scarce this season, Mr. Robin
son has had to resort to the expedi-
ency of getting limitation ones and
they will be attached to the front Of
his big touring car which will meet
Santa and take him through the
streets to the tree on Christmas eve.
The car win be appropriately decor
ated.
The festivities Of the evening will
open as near o'clock as possible
and will be started with the singing
OF carols by a group of children who
will be seated on float and driven
through the streets Following this.
a mixed chorus will give Christmas
songs at the tree. The wagon used by
the Roundup band will be used for
a platform and at the conclusion OF
the song program it can be hauled
gut of the way so as to give ample
room for the rest of the exercises
Miss Cecile BOYD has trained 10O chill
dren in folk dances and dressed as
Brownies. these little ones will dance
about the street before the gifts are
distributed
The Commercial association wishes
tc have the people remember that
the streets must be kept clear for tho
children. All adults. in other words,
are asked TO remain on the sidewalks
and not crowd about the tree while
the exercises are going on. The cele-
bration is essentially for the children
and the committee desires to let them
have the whole street for their en-
joyment. There will be force ot
special police on hand to remind the
people Of this should they disobey tho
regulations. There will be plenty or
room along the walks for the specta.
tors.

An official bulletin from the O.-W

station this morning announcing that
on or about January Is the Pilot Rock
Junction terminal yards will be put
into use and that, effective from thai,
time. all passenger engine crews will
run from Huntington to Pilot Rock
Junction
This bulletin is fraught with inter
est and importance to Pendleton. 1t
not only means the opening Of the di-
vision point but it means that the pas
st nger engine men will have to make
their homes in Pendleton. At pres
ent there are three runs on the o.
w. r. & n. for engine crews. from
Huntington to La Grande, from La
Grande to Umatilla and from Umatil-
la to Portland. Under the new ar
rangement there will be but two runs,
from Huntington to Pilot Rock June
ton and from the junction to Port
land.
There are at this time six passenger
engine crews operating on the main
line but there is a possibility that, be-
cause of the increased mileage, one of
these will be cut off under the new
arrangement. This viii leave at least
five crews. Because their layovers
will be in this city they will make
their home here.
The opening Of the terminal Yards
will also mean that the COyote-Echo
cutoff will be formally opened for
traffic.

italian steamer Ancona on the con-

"On the contrary" holds the ad-

1t is a submarine commander S
duty To make a report to a designat-

did this as soon as he was within

a supplementary report at Pola and
