The important role of Merlon
has been entrusted to Klton Enod
grasa. Although the exactions of
this unsophl tlcated but appealing
character ar great enough to gH
Elton all "hot and bothered," hi
abaility will produce an outstanding
interpretation.

NEWS NOTES
While in The Dalles last week end
Mr. DeVoe visited the old Hlstorial
building. He says that it is worth
anybody's timo and money to see
this trea' ure of local historcial relics.
The building is one of the oldest
remaining in The Dalles. Inside Park, Hotel Kelly, Fraley Garage and
there are hundreds or fine arrow Restaurant, Kramer Bros., Garage,
heads, spear heads and other Indian Maupin Hotel and Cafe, Woodcock
relics of many different tribes. In Bros., power plant and flour mill,
addition many rifles and pistols, Richmond Service Station, Maupin
which were used by soldiers during State Bank, Shell Oil Co., and The
Indian wars, may be found, all in- Maupin Times. Watch far date an
dicative of legendary times' char- nouncmg time when Maupin will be
actcristlc of this country,
After much discussion the Senior
class has sdlected and ordered its
announcements which, to say the
least, represent the very latest in
the announcement line. It ia in
tern ting to note that the erstwhile
familiar cognomen of "Elt" appears
under tho alias of "Elton Perry per
i kins Snodgrass," while that of our
"Little Abbie" reads
"Abner Silas

The'cause of the above outburst
on our part Is contained in the fact
that on Monday the associated firms
and professional men of Maupin
have combined to foster a proposi
tion to broadcast a high-charactered
program of one hour's duration
over the great station K O I N of
Portland.
While the local broadcast is pri
marily to interest the potential trade
or purchasing power of our trn
county, secondary to reach state
wide trade of the tourist traffic that
may be routed through our town,
the main object of the broadcast is
to acquaint outsiders of the extent

has not been definitely set The
Timet expects to be informed of that
time aoon enough to publish it in our
next week's (sue, although, from
what we have learned regarding the
time phase of the broadcast, the
date may be arranged for April 7,
in time to inform sportsmen and
fishermen of Oregon of fishing con
ditions of our river before the open
ing of the fishing season. It is not
enough for us of Maupin to know
about the De chutes; it is not enough
for the "old guard" of our visiting
snglers to know it; we must advance
and in that advance so to it that
more and more of Oregon's popula
tion are informed of what we have
here.
As a newspaper we arc not pri
marily interested in air advertising,
but as a voice for Maupin we have
learned that tha greatest advertisers
on the air are the heavie t buyers of
newspaper space, so we cheerfully
throw our hats in the air and holler
"Whoopee!" By contracting with
K O I N Mupin will lead all central
Oregon in going on the air with a
program at once edifying, instruc
tive and pleasing, thus showing we
will not play "second fiddle" to any
community of this section. On the
other hand we will have established
a precedent and one which will be
followed by other places in this part
of Oregon.
The Maupin firms and professional
men who have sponsored the movS'
ment to exploit our city on the air

"Do you find transporting your

"This question has been asked me
quite often. Thinking that some of
the readers of The Maupin Times
might be interested, I decided to
write of the benefits. District No.
85, known as the Criterion school,
has derived from such transporting.
''School District No. 85 and dis
trict No, 88 own and operate their
school bus jointly. The school bus
is operated a distance of 20 miles.
The driver is paid $100 per month.
All expenceg are divided ' equally
between the two districts. All
High school students are transport
ed to the Maupin High Khool free.
"The three years district No. 85
operated their school, prior to trans
porting to Maupin, cost the district
an average of $1,862.54 per year to
operate cur tchool.

half interest in the school bus cost
$1,188.00. Deducting $1,138 from
$1,998.32 leaves a net saving of
$860.32 the first four years.
"Our school bus has nearly" com-
pleted its fifth sea on and still has
' considerable value. Cur bus never
i failed to make its regular trips and
has been late very few times and
then only when the roads were icy,
forcing the driver to drive slowly.
"For "three reasons I consider
tran portation a success:
"1 Our children are in one of the
best schools in Wasco county in
stead of a one-teacher school.
"2 Our children can attend High
school from home. s
"3 Our school district
is saving
