Frank Bell, of Blackhorse, was in
Heppner last Friday transacting business.
other town on the O.-W. R. & N. rail
road. The first man I met whenl ar
rived in town was the city marshal,
Walt Cason. Walt said that the
Moral Squad had not improved condi
tions so that he was not needed but
they were assisting him in many
ways. He said that he was inquiring
into a crawfish feed that was held
recently.
Business was good with Walt Mason
and he was loading up several wagons
when I stopped long enough to say
hello. Gaunt the tailor was busy
measuring up a customer for one of
those hand-made suits which so many
of the well-dressed men around lone
wear. He also sells some haberdash
ery and is gradually branching out.
Gaunt is a nifty man with the needle
and I understand that he has all that
he can do.
I dropped in to see Roy Whiteis
who, with Frank Hopkins, was busy
wrapping up orders and marking
watermelons which had been sold.
Roy bought a ton of these the day be
fore and has another ton coming next
Friday. He showed me his new ice
chest where he keeps his meats,
cheese and watermelons, and other
perishable things. This is surely a
fine improvement. Business is good
with Roy and I wouldn't be surprised
to see an addition being built on that
store at this time next year.
It being about six o'clock, I step
ped into the hotel with our friend
Gaunt and we passed thirty minutes
around the family table. We made
the acquaintance of a man who had
just come overland by easy stages,
in other words, he walked from Port
land. In going up the street I saw J. T.
Knappenburg in his Coal Car. Joe
has been busy harvesting and from
what I can learn, he knows how to
tickle the ground and make it laugh
with a harvest. Dick Turpin had a
room full and there was a heated dis
cussion going on about something
that the Squad did last week. At the
depot I saw Mr. Pennington, who
was burning the midnight oil writing
freight receipts. He quit at eight
thirty, however, to take in the
'movies." One does not have to
dynamite favors from Mr. Pennington.
I met Mr. J. E. Cronan, the banker.
Mr. Cronan was born in Iowa and
gravitated to Oregon. Mr. Cronan
said that the crops were good around
lone and business in general was in a
healthy condition. W. H. Cronk, pro
bably the busiest man in lone, was
hustling about looking after lumber
prospects.
About eight-thirty I strolled down
by the ball field and along with other
prominent people attended the tent
show.v There is a fascination about
tent shows that is not associated with
other like attractions. One feels a
.lort of freedom that seems to be in
the surroundings. While there I was
presented with innumerable presents,
such as peanuts and the carelessness
with which these were distributed
among the crowd was wonderful,
when you consider that no one was
injured.
After the show we started the old
iron horse, Mr. Sparks' Studebaker
Four, and in a few minutes we were
out on the open road with the lights
of the city growing smaller and smal
ler until they appeared lost in the
starry canopy overhead.

The editor took a little journey to
the Egg City lat Saturday, lone,
Oregon, has bn termed the Egg City
1 because it ships more eggs than any
in time to the hills.
We didn't have any expensive furni
ture in those days. Rough lumber
was nailed together for bedsteads,
Rawhide bottom chairs we thought
were fine. Schools were expensive to
operate as we had to pay the teacher
and buy the wood. Pendleton was the
.'ounty seat and I remember once of
seeing the sheriff taking an Indian
there for filling a woman's mouth
with dust. We made preserves out of
ground cherries and lived considerably
on dried beef and dried apples. I made
traps and caught prairie chickens.
Coyotes were numerous and they
would hang around the chicken yards
waiting to catch one should it come
within reach. Fences were made of
poles tied together with cowhide."
Mrs. Ayers told me that she was a
Baptist and a member of the Eastern
SUir lodge. In politics she votes for
the man and not the party.
Mrs. Ayers can well be called one
of the Mothers of Oregon. The
knowledge of what this woman has
done would certainly silence the per
siflage of some of our so-called
stronger sex who prate about "wo
man's work." She has reasons to be
proud of what she has accomplinhed
and all womankind should partake of
the Joy of this woman's success. Mrs.
Ayers has the virtues of the Teutonic
tribes, the virtues of industry,
economy, self-renpect, a love of home,
a love of children: all coupled with
the habits that make for health, use
fu'neM, long life junt the simple,
old fashioned virtues of truthfulness
and mutual helpfulness that the world
can never do without
