So far over the fetate the smaller schools have won every debajte except tliet between Hood River and The Dalles. Ontario is yet to iy eet Baker City and Astoria to meet Multnomah Union won from La Grande, Albany from Salem and Lebanon from Eugene, The high school students were worried Sunday forenoon over the disappearance of the trophies won by the debating team the Pendleton banner and the millionaires' Hag. Upon the return of the Pendleton team from Wallowa lake, Prof. Landers was notified of the mys tirious disappearance of the trophies and shortly afterwards the local boys were called up to the hotel parlor, where nicely arranged on the wall were all the trophies of victory Each member of the visiting team was greeted heartily aud at the close applauded as liberally as were the home team. Fred Holmes, the leader of the, vic torious team, Is 16 years of age, and is in the aophinore class. He spent a year at Hill's Military academy, Port land. Mies Olmsted is 17, and a sophmore. Miss Forsythe who is 18, is a junior and spent a year at Weston, The high school pupils are planning on issuing a high school paper similar to the one now issued by the high school at Ontario. There are abont twelve schools in the state that have high school paper. It is probable that it arrangements can be made the Wal Iowa county high school paper will be issued three times a year. The teachers and pupils of the high school wish to express their thanks and appreciation to members of the orches tra, the ladies and gentlemen who took part on the program and the persons who entertained visitors, for the in terest manifested in our work. We appreciate the Interest shown by those who came from a distance to hear the debate. We are glad that, you came and hope that you will come again We thank the ladies who served tho lunch for the judges and the debaters, also those who served ttie punch and wafers at the opera house. We thank the citizens of Enterprise for their many favors and their hearty support and free good will which were placed at our disposal. 1 The Pendleton East Oregonian says the debate was, one of the chief high school events of the year in eastern Oregon as shown by the interest taken both In Pendleton and Wallowa county. In speaking of the departure of the team for Enterprise, ttie same paper said the team felt confident of winning, and that much earnest and vigorous work had been done in securing mate, rial for debate by the Pendleton team The champion Wallowa County high school team will go to Tho Dalles some time before February 14 to debate the team there on the same question.' The Dalles team defeated the Hood River tiam January 10, having the same side, ntilrinativ e, of the question that Wal lowa had Saturday night. One or the other will have to chango sides, and would onlv be fair to give the visitors and the team representing the smalle school its choice oi sides. The Dalles team is composed of two boys and one girlHarry Nitschke and Ray Uurpe andJeune Millikin. The first named whs leader in the debate with Hood Hi ver an I is said to have an excellen delivery.

Leonard was born in New York In 1878. The family came to this section when he was only about eight years old. The news Of his death casts a glcom over the entire cemmun ity, where he was well known and highly esteemed as an henest, indus trious, worthy citizen. While his death is a shock to many who had not heard of his declining health, yet it was known to many of his friends that for the last year he had been in ill health. He recently had an attack of stomach trouble and on Friday spoke of having a headache. As has been-his custom of late, he lay down after dinner for a rest, When the wife thought he had slept qnite a while, she tried to waken him. but finding him apparentlktoo ill to talk or waken, she sent for his br. ther Roy, who was near and came at once. Thii .was about 4 p. m. Together they watched and w orked over him hoping to revive rum Dut it was soon apparent that they were powerless to help him and he passed away peacefully at about 7:30 p. m. His near relatives were informed and Chas Rice and wife and William Meek of Joseph came on Sat urday and proceeded to the residence of Mrs. Ellen Brum bach, where other relatives and friends were awaiting the coming of the bearers, and also of Mrs. L. G. Snell and the friends who accom panied her, and at which place the processsion was formed. Many others were waiting at the Bridge, and at about 3 p. m. Sunday, he was laid to rest in the Tmnaha ' cemetery. He leaves to mourn his death, his v idow, Mrs. Vertie Meek Snell ; baby Alice, about a year and a half old ; his mother, Mrs. Ida S.
