REMEMBER YOUR NEIGH
Dor AROUND The CORNER

The Food Administration, by
direction of Mr.. Hoover, has been
directed to assist in the work OF
raising the needed funds for relief
of the Armenians. Four million
ArmeRians are facing starvation. A
few weeks without aid will mean the
depopulation of large part of
Armenia. We have been fighting to
save the Armenians and others from
the thralldom of tyranny. Now, that
we have won the victory, shall we
let the people die? Can you picture
the thin lips, the sunken eyes, the
bony cheeks, the claw-like fingers,
and the emaciated bodies of thous-
ands and thousands of little children
who have forgotten how to smile?
Thousands upon thousands of these
title children have already periShed,
and their thin little forms have been
Auried in the sands by the roadside
and afterward dug up by the wolves
If the desert. Look at the bright
yed, ruddy checked little folks
around you, and picture them with
he light of hope faded from their
| eyes, the color gone from their
heeks, and their bodies wasted until
| hey look like walking skeletons.
Would you not make every sacrifice
n your power to save them from
death by starvation? Just over the
way, just around the corner, just out
| t sight is Armenia where this con-
dition prevails. There must be i'm
mediate relief We have been asked
to give, and we have given freely.
There is not time to argue about how
this situation might be handled to
better advantage. WE MUST ACT
AT ONCE.

give 100000. The drive is to be

Something Worth Seeing.

The colored troops overseas are
furnishing all sorts of laughs for the
more sophisticated doughboys. One
of them concerns a chocolate-colored
Yank who had never seen a body OF
water larger than a creek and VINO

ocean that he refused to look at 1t

Have Leased Machine Shops.

Messrs. McRoberts and Cohn Of
the McRoberts-Cohn Auto Co., have
leased their machine shops TO Messrs.
Welch & Linniger, two young men of
Pendleton. These gentlemen have on
the way full equipment of machin"
cry which will be installed as rapidly
as it arrives from Portland. They
expect to be in charge of their end Of
the garage Immediately after the
9th of this month but do not look
to have all their equipment installed
before the first of February. They
expect to be fully prepared to handle
work on any make of car, and will
also be equipped with the necessary
machinery for repairing and re-charg-
ing storage batteries. The new firm
is composed Of H. B. Welch and S,
G. Linniger and they will move with
their families to Heppner immedi-
ately, providing they can find houses
or furnished rooms to occupy.

$60,0OOC0. TACKLES
HOTEL PROPOSITION
Local Capitalists Organize and Will
Put Up Modern HOstelry.

There is immediate prospect that
Heppners hotel problem will be
solved, and that before many weeks,
or just as soon as the proper plans
can be drawn, a modern, 5O-room
building, of concrete construction,
will be erected and then Heppner
will be on the map again as the best
little town in all of Eastern Oregon.
This is according to plans that are
now being formulated, and COM
pany has organized and filed their
articles of incorporation with the de-
partment at Salem in the sum of
$50, 900 for the purpose of putting
the hotel proposition across in good
shape.
AS we get it, the plan is to begin
operations just as soon as the details
are worked out and the building will
likely go up OF the corner recently
acquired by Gillian & Bisbee from
Vic Groshens, and known as the
OO1tuD COl uCl Ol main Otl CCL anu
Just south of the Palace hotel site.
We are making the announcement
upon rumor, only, but it is under
tOOd that the new company have a
lace to put the building and that
the site is a prominent one.
The incorporators of the new COM
pany are w. P. Mahoney, Frank
Gillian, ], G. Thomson, w. o.
Minor and Phil Cohn. The sum of
100000 is already pledged and this
assures the starting of the structure
and there should be no difficulty ex-
perienced in placing the balance Of
the stock.
This announcement is certainly
good news. Heppner has suffered
much from the lack of proper hotel
facilities since the big fire of July 4th
and there is no doubt but that much
harm has been done the town be-
cause of this great inconvenience.
This starts the work of rebuilding
the burnt over district and others
will follow In fact, we understand
that Messrs. Gillian & Bisbee. are
going right ahead with their new
building project, and it is expected
that construction on this will begin
early in the spring, work on the.
and the Gillian & Bisbee building
going on at the same time. The an
lnouncement that there were many
contracts let fer the construction of
residences in the city, which appear
ed in an issue of the OregCnian the
first of the week, is without founda-
ton, whatever, so far as we can
learn, and it is regretted that the
correspondent from this place does
not exercise a little better judgment
in the statements he makes. 1t GER
tainly would be great if such were
the truth but no good can come from
, putting forth such bogus optimism
through the columns of the leading
? daily of the state. Yet it seems that
Heppner is doomed to suffer from
this source, and the next time a
heavy rain comes we can expect a
boom" writeup from the Heppner
, correspondent in the Portland paper
We trust that the building bug
, will now become popular in this
, town, and we can say that there is
D further important announcements
, forthcoming in this line, and they
q will be made at the proper time.

DOCTORS FIND
REMEDY FOR
COLDS And FLU
Calotabs, the New Nauscaless
Calomel Tablets, Cut Short
Colds and May Prevent
Flu BY Keeping
Liver Active.

Physicians have learned from exp.
ricnce. during the epidemic Of inru-
enza, that one Of the most important
factors in the prevention OF nu and
pneumonia Is to keep the liver active
so that the digestive organs NAV be- in
perfect working order and the system
thereby enabled to throw off colds
check sore throats and resist serious
complications. For this purpose they
nave found that the new, nauscaIrss
calomcl tablets called Calotabs. are far
more effective even than the old rtvlc
calomcl. which was formerly the uni
Tcrsal favorite. as Calotabs do not
weaken the patient. nor interfere with
tho appetite and digestion.
At the first sign OF cold or sore
throat. doctors recommend one Calotab
at bedtime with n swallow OF water
that's all. No salts. no nausea, nor the
slightest interference with your diet
pleasure or work. Next morning you
wake up feeling fine. your liver is &C
tive. and your appetite is keen for a
good breakfast.
For your protection Calotabs are sold
only in original sealed packages. price
thirty-fve cents. All druggists recon-
mend and guarantee Calotabs. Your
