Who said Eastern Oregon was a
desolate wa-te of snow and frost?
.Whoever it was is invited . to visit
Ihe Deschutes valley at this time.
Should he come he would be greeted
, by singing birds, a breath of spring,
bursting pussy willows and an at
mosphere as healthful and life-giving
as can be found anywhere in the
world.
The chinook winds of the past few
days have about cleared the snow
from this section. The hillsides are
bare and but a small coating re
mains on the fields. The best of
the thaw ia that the water, inrtead
of running to the river, has sunk in
to the ground, thus insuring a bounti
ful yield of wheat the coming sea

C C. Chapman, publisher of The
Oregon Voter, was recently charged
by a certain legislator with main
taining and directing a lobby in the
state , house for the purpose of in
fluencing legislation inimical to pub
lie owner, hip of utilites. Editor
Chapman easily disproved the charge
and the legislature absolved him
from the charge.
C. C. Chapman is one of the big
men er.gagedt in journalistic pur
suits in Oregon. His Voter ia one
outstanding medium of education
along political lines and his counsel
and advice has been asked and ac
cepted on numerous occasions. That
he would be cleared of such a charge
as was laid against him was not
boubted. by a single publisher in
this state, and the fact that he in
vited drastic inquiry into his work at

GRADES ENTERTAINMENT WAS
WINNER IN EVERY EVENT
Little Toil and OlJer One Appaar
In Varied and Planting Feb
ruary Program
The entertainment given by the
grade v-choul last Friduy evening
was easily one of the beat things of
its kind ever attempted in Maupin.
Each room of the grudea was repre
sented and with a varied program of
songs, dialogues, drills and playlets
entertained a large gathering for
netrly two hours.
Several of the offerlnga partook
of the comical, and each elicited
loud applause. Those taking part
showed they had been carefully
drilled and rendered their lines with
-promptness and a clearness seldom
heard from little ones. The drills,
especially, were fine. The Flag
drill, in which 20 pupils took part,
was better than waj expected, little
Louise Duus carrying of the chief
honors, sho sppcuring as comman
der of the forces. The fan drill by
Jean Renlck, Bcrnice Hollis, Doro
thy Greene and Francis Lindley was
also worthy of special mention. The
little girls went through the intra
cacies of the drill with great preci
sion and their natural grace added
to the effect of their evolutions.
Perhaps the outstanding feature
of the evening's entertainment was
the February play. All the pupils
from the six grades took part and
the birthdays of many celebrated
persons were remembered as well
as those people in rpeaking repre
sentation. Bernice Hollis took the
part of Miss February and chowed
rtr.l Urumntic Went
We would like to make individual
mention of each one taking part,
but space forbids. Each one did
fine and should their teachers again
attempt a similar entertainment pur
people would be assured one of the
be. t .and most pleasing shows possi
ble by little folks.
TO OLD CUSTOMERS
I desire to cnlLthe attention of
my old customers to my recent
change in location, it being to the
Kramer Bros.' garage, where I will
be in charge of the mechanical de
partment The same service I gave
while in business for myself will be
continued in my new location, and
I ask that my former customers re
member that I will personally at
tend to all auto repairs that may be
brought to thir, garage.

"INSIDE INFORMATION
, Ecea should not be handled in the
early spring any more than neces
sary.. Opening a hive in cool
weather wastes heat and may even
kill the brood. It is a good plan
to wrap hives in black tar paper in
the spring, to conserve heat and
hold the sun's rays. Put is on as
soon as the bees start flying in the
spring.
Milk may! be used in b'read-mak-fng
to improve the nutritive value
of the loaf, and also Improve its
appearance through the fine golden
brown crust and more creamy color
and better texture of the crumb.
Dried skim or evaporated milk will
give good results as well as fresh
whole milk.
