New York to Lead Cities of World in
Population.

New York, Feb. 23-New York
will be shown by the 1920 census to
be indisputably the biggest city in
the world.
Results Of the census, which will
be available in Washington about
March Is, will, according to census
officials, give to the metropolitan
district of New York a population
OF $500, ,00U, as compared with an es.
timated population of 100000 for
the metropolitan district of London
an excess of 100000 in favor OF
New York.
The metropolitan district of New
York includes suburban territory in
Westchester county, parts of Connect
icut and Long Island and some sec
tions of New Jersey.
The population of New York exclu-
sive of adjacent territory, census Off
cials declare, will be between 6,000,-
600 and 100000 as compared to
4,766,SS3 which was the federal cen
sus figure in 1910. In 1911 the pop
ulation Of London proper was 4,522,-

NEW STORE HOME
OPENS To PUBLIC
Pioneer Hardware Firm of Gillian &
Bisbee Now Settled in Their Fire.
Proof Structure At Corner of Main
And May Streets.

After several dayskS moyi-g, the
pioneer firm Of Gillian & Bisbee, To-
cal hardware and implement dealers,
opened their brand new doors to the
public this week and have extended
cordial invitation to everybody to
come in and look over" their new
home. 1t is conceded by many to be
the finest hardware store building in
the state outside of Portland and was
built by the firm at a cost of nearly
$4,000.
The outward appearance of the
structure, with it's red and white
pressed brick and the substantial con-
crete pillars, is we'll sustained from
within by the neatly plastered walls
and excellent taste in the finishing of
all the wood work. All of the fix
lures, counters and show cases, to-
gether with a large stock, are new.
The full basement virtually gives the
firm three full stories. The basement
will be used for storage purposes, the
ground floor for sales room and Off
ces while the top story will be given
over to the display Of wagons and
farm machinery.
The entire building is arranged for
the greater convenience in the handl-
ing of goods. A large doorway in the
rear permits loaded truck to drive
right into the building, where the
load is transferred to the elevator and
then taken upstairs or down, as may
be chosen. Another feature is a large
concrete addition to the main build
ing which will be devoted exclusively
to the plumbing department.
There are few towns anywhere the
size Of Heppner that can boast of a
finer store building. 1t stands as a
monument to the business integrity
of the firm which brought it to reali-
cation, and Is suggestive of their be.
lief in the future of Heppner and the
large trading area round about.

Margarine Clark Charming in "Out of
A Clear Sky"

When 1t comes to marrying Ger
man prince, the average Belgian wo-
man may be pardoned if she pro-
tests. But when Celeste, countess of
Bersek and Krymn, refused to be-
come member of the family of a
Hun prince as his wife, her protests
were unavailing until she literally
took the bit in her own teeth and es-
capped from her native country in
search of happiness and freedom in
the United States.
This is the basis of the story of
"Out Of Clear Sky" the new Para
mount photoplay starring Marguer-
ite Clark which will be shown at the
Star theater next Sunday. 1t serves
to provide Miss Clark with one of
the most piqusnt roles in which she
has been seen on the screen in many
months. The photoplay has much en-
joyable comedy and there are numer-
Gus dramatic moments that grip and
hold the attention of the audience.
Miss Clark is supported by excep-
tionally clever players, her leading
man being Thomas Meighan. The
picture is based upon the novel by
Maria Thompson Daviess and it was
capably directed by Marshall Neilan.

SCREEN VERSION OF CURWO0D'S
GREAT NORTH STORY HERE SATURDAY,
Under Title of Back to Gods COun-
try" Famous Magazine Work Will
BE Shown at the Star.

Heralded by exceptional tributes
from Eastern critics, who declare II
to be most novel photoplay, Back
to Gods Country" adapted from
James Oliver Curwood's celebrated
magazine story, "Wapi, the Walrus,
will play at the Star theater, Satur-
day, Feb. 2S.
Probably no person alive has the
knack of writing on the psychology
OF the relationship between animal
and man that characterizes the lit
erary work of Curwood. And in his
picture, which was supervised by
himself in the Arctic regions in a
temperature of 81 degrees below zero
a faithful attention to detail has
made this photoplay far more vivid
than his story.
Back to Gods Country" is based
essentially upon the theme that kind
ness to animals results in reflecting
and generating that kindness to the
giver whereas, cruelty and torture
serve to incite an animal to fiendish
savagery. Curwood writes his story
about Wapi, the killer, a great Dane
upon whom no man or beast has ever
lavished a kind word or act. Another
thread Of the story leads to Nell
Shipman as Delors LeBeau, a girl
living with her father in the wilds OF
Canada and whom all the animals
near her home have learned to love.
When Fate takes Dolores and a
helpless husband into the Arctic re-
gions, she is brought into touch with
the dog, who has received the name
OF "the killer" from the Eskimos
and traders whom he has frightened
through his fendishness. Dolores
kindness wins his friendship.
How Wapi saves the lives Of Dolo-
res and her husband, who are fleeing
across the barren lands in a sleigh,
is one of the most unusual scenes
ever shown on the Star theater's g
screen.
