kota Mr.. Atkinson comes highly
recommended.
" Another feature Of the coming
school year will be the Inauguration

sfades inclusive, who are tagging in
their studies, special chance to
make up the work and go on with
their fellow pupils. This plan has
worked most successfully wherever
tried out and is considered q pro-
gressive step in conducting school
work.
Superintendent D. W. Boitnott will
have with him as co-workers during
the coming year the following corps
of teachers:
Miss Martina Theile of Portlasd,
high school.
Ray X. Atkinson. Brookings, S. d.

doughboy in France. Most of the
winter was spent in Brest. A few
days after Mr.. Gillian received his
orders to report back to the United

was not detained In France for a

ARMY MEN WILL
SPEND FIVE DAYS HERE

First Sergeant A. ]. Yarbrough,
Sgt. Louis Main and Sgt. Clarence
Halves, United States Army. Camp
Lewis, Washington, will arrive in
Heppner tonight to spend five days
on recruiting duty. They are not
only recruiting for Camp Lewis, but
for Siberia, Alaska, China, Panama
and the Phippipine and Hawaiian
Islands, and the United States, in
cluding the Mexican border. All
branches of the Army are now open
for enlistment for men between the
ages Of Is and 40 years; men for
the staff corps can enlist as long as
they are not over SIS years of age.
All men enlisting for foreign service
are required to enlist for period Of
three years, but may apply for dis
charge at the expiration of one years
service. Men who have had previous
military training can enlist in any
branch Of the service they may choose
for period of one year. Men join
ing the Quartermaster corps or med
ical department can enlist for a per-
iod of one year, regardless of whether
or not they have had any previous
military training. There are no re-
serve clauses attached to either en-
listments.
The officers are making a special
effort to obtain men for Siberia to re-
lieve those units now on duty there.
There is apt to be lots Of excitement
In this service. mixed with some da-
ger, so the Army wants men for this
service who have real fighting blood
In their veins.
Owing to the short enlistment and
early service abroad, numerous en-
listments are being made at this time.
Since the first Of March 10000 men
have enlisted or re-enlisted. Another
cause for so many enlistments during
the past few months Is that the ar
my department offers a great educa-
tional feature as part of the new
peace time army. Men in Uncle SAM
army are not idling their time away;
they are going to school, either to
complete their elementary and Sec
ondary education, or getting some ad-
advanced education in some vocation
which they expect to follow In civil
life.
Recruiting officers can be found at
the post office, or on the streets any
time of day or night.

"BIG FIVE" PACKERS
CONTROL FOOD PRICE

Washington, July 29.-Ability Of
the "big five" packers, Swift, Ar
mour, Morris, Cudahy and Wilson, to
determine from day to day the gen.
eral level of livestock prices was de-
clared incontrovertible In the third
section of the federal trade commits
sion's report on the industry made
public last night.
Information obtained in the COM
missions investigation was cited to
show that the big FIVE" have an In
terest in % of the so practical mar
ket yards of the country and total
voting stock in 22 others. 1t was
said they buy most of the livestock
sold at these yards.
"They discriminate against and put
at great disadvantage independent
buyers, who are their competitors, -
the report said ''They manipulate
on occasions the livestock market in
such a way as to cause extreme and
unwarranted fluctuations In the daily
prices paid for livestock. They have
eliminated many competitors and pre-
vented new ones from coming in.
They have restricted the meat sup
ply of the nation by manipulating the
daily livestock prices and thus dis
couraging the producers of livestock.
"Of the meat trade in the hands of
interstate slaughterers in the United
States, the five big packing companies
have more than 73 per cent Of the
total. They have the prices of dress
ed meat and packing house products
so we'll in hand that within a certain
limitation, meat prices are made to
respond to their Wishes"
