C"3 HEPPNER SEMI-WEEKLY HIERADD SEMI-WEEKLY With which is consolidated The lone Bulletin. A first class newspaper entered at the postoffice at Heppner, Oregon as second-class matter VOLUME 1 HEPPNER, OREGON, SEPT. F, 1914 NUMBER 25 SPECIA L E THE FAIR Fill DURING HARDMAN NEWS , Everyone connected with the Mor row County Fair is wearing a broad smile these days. Everything is rounding nicely for the big event. Train service has been secured from the Egg City to Heppner and return. The train will leave lone at 7 a. m. and depart from Heppner at midnight. This will make it possible for every one between lone and Heppner to at tend the fair. W. E. Wallbridge left yesterday morning for lone. He will collect exhibits around lone, Cecil, Morgan and in the north part of the county. He will go up Rhea Creek and will spent a day in Lexineton on his way back. Everyone who has any thing worth displaying down in that part of the county, wants to keep their eyes open for W. E. Wallbridge. The Oregon Social Hygiene Society has engaged space for their exhibits at the Fair. This organization will be' on hand with liturature, informa tion, show cards and other material to show what is being done to improve the health of the people. This is a very interesting display and everyone can profit by seeing it. Judge Phelps wrote the Fair Board from Pendleton saying that the people interested in the fair over there are trying to get a special train 'to leave there Thursday afternoon of the fair week so as to be here for Friday's pro gram. This will be carried out pos sible. Henry Vance has been appointed Chairman of the Information Bureau. All parties having roms to rent see him or Sec. Smead. The Fair Board has derided to hold jini th. r aby Conte.-' this ycar.lt will be ooiidut'ud accor ''mr to the Wo man's Home Companion rules and the babies wil' be judged according to that standard. suitable prizes will be i offered and full announcements will be printed next week in this paper. The baby crop is the most important crop in the county and everyone who has any specimens are urged to have them here when the fair opens. The big dance pavilion, the finest of the fair buildings, was formally open ed last Friday night by the Bcnefiit Ball. This was held to collect a few WnnHwiw Wilsnn Hnllnro n holn alnnn ' " " w a. 11 uiv'is the County Fair and was largely at tended by people of all classes, mat ters of political opinion, religion and also from all parts of the county. Prof. Otto's orchestra occupied the platform raised on the east side and made merry with sweet sounds until far into the morning. Around the west, north and east sides the crowd gathered on the three tiers of seats. Inside the railing were those who were dancing. The building was lighted with red and white electric lights which flooded the room with a solt light. In the south-east corner was a checking counter where articles were deposited for the small sum of hve cents. Miss Alberta Ooulder had charge of this. Tickets were sold by Mrs. Otho Crawford, ten cents each or six for a half-dollar. Dr. Christensen was head man on the floor and collected the fiasteboards. $112.00 in all was col ected which deducting $50.00 for the expenses leave $H2.00 to be used for fair purposes. Of the out-of-town visitors we saw Mr. and Mrs. Knap penberg, Misses Ethel Sperry and May (.anger, Mr. and Mrs. F. G. Jack son, Bob Sperry, R. N. Hymer and Will Burger of lone. Lexington was represented by the William Leach family, Howard Lane and wife, Ray McAllister and others. Mr. Leach is president of the Fair Board. Every one had a tine time and the best of order prevailed at all times. We see no reason why the Fair Board could not hold these dunces at regu lar intervals and in the course of a year realize a large amount on them. The next dances will be held during the fair and large crowds are ex pected to fill the building. The first dance placed the floor in good con dition, so all those who attend during the fair are assured of an enjoyable time. (Special to the Herald, Sept. 5. 1914.) T. H.

LATEST WAR NEWS I SCHOOL NOTES , , PARIS, Sept. 7 Military Governor Gallieni published the following de spatch from the War Office at Bor deaux: "The French and British are now engaged in a general action with Germans northeast of Paris. The battle lines extend from Nantovil to Verdun via Vitry. The French and British have compelled the Germans to retire from the region of Coulom miers, in the department of the Seine at Marne. ANTWERP, Sept. 7 The country south of here was flooded to prevent the Kaiser's artillery from operating "lose to Antwerp fortifications. The .ountry around the city, as is much of Holland, lies below sea level and many Germans were drowned. When the gates were thrown open the water rushed in so fast that the Germans did not have time to escape. Large numbers took refuge in treetops, housetops and those unable to reach these perished. Large numbers of cannon were lost and it is estimated :hat 5000 men perished. BORDEAUX, Sept. 7 The French are celebrating as a victory the Ger nans failure to attack Paris. The War Office was of the opinion that the Kaiser was waiting until his right wing was strengthened. General Von Buelow is trying to reach it with a force from Rheims. War Minister Millerand stated that the fighting front is improving for the Allies. PARIS, Sept. 7 The Germans right flank has been turned according to the reports from the War Office. The British penetrated through the Ger man lines imperiling the Kaiser's en tire right, forcing him to withdraw troops from Lille to strengthen it. It is believed that the Germans havt abandoned their march directly on Paris, having learned that the Allies contemplated a general engagement oast of the city. Here the French were massed to entrap the enemy but the Germans were informed by their aviators and changed their plans. LONDON, Sept. 7 Stirred by re cent evidences of German naval ac tivity in the North Sea where it was supposed to be safely bottled up, the British fleet is preparing to crush the German power on the sea. The Admiralty admitted that important events are impending. Rev. Handsaker left yesterday for Portland where he will attend the meeting of the Missionary Society of the Christian Church. He represents North-Eastern Oregon and is one of the Vice-Presidents of the Society. He will be back next Wednesday and regular services will be held in the Christian Church next Sunday . Rev. Handsaker desires us to call attention to the lecture by J. C. lihormley in the church o. Wednes day night. Mr. Ghormley as return ed from the missionary fields in India and will Bhow on the screen pictures which he took of the country and his work. This lecture is free and will be interesting and instructive. The Church Board has decided to conduct a series of revival meeting wnicn win start on the i!7th. Kev. PETROGRAD, Sept. 7 The Rus sians in East Prussia are advancing ;n the German fortifications on the iver Deime. They are also beseiging Konigsberg citadel. From north to south the Russian line stretched through East Prussia, Russian Poland, province of Plock, Warsaw, Radmon and Austrian Galicia, a distance of about 500 miles. The Czar's troops ire pressing the Austrians hard in Russian Poland, the Austrians being reinforced by Germans. ROME, Sept. 5 Orders for Italian mobilization looked for at any hour. From Austrian sources came news of the Russian defeat of the Austrians in Eastern Galica was overwhelming The losers leaving 25,000 killed and wounded on the battlefield. Accord ing to Nish advices, the Servians gain ed a victory over the Austrians a! Jedar and over 30,000 Austrians were Killed alone. I he figures were un official. LONDON, Sept. 5 Foreign Minis ter Grey and the Frenth and Russian ministers signed an agreement bind ing their respecitve countries to con tinue the war unitedly to the end, that is, no country can make peace on its own account. LONDON, Sept. 7 It was unoffi cially reported that the British light cruiser, Pathfinder, was blown up in he North Sea and out of a crew of .'50 only 58 were saved. Of the 58 survivors it is said that 16 were wounded and four were dying when they were picked up by a trawler. LONDON. Sept. 7 The Germa losses in killed and wounded is esti mated at 200,000, which places it moderately. This is 20'o of their forces in the field. The Allies loss has been about 87r. COPENHAGEN, Sept. 5 The de cree of the Czar permitting Jews tc become army officers was announced by the Russian legation. LONDON, Sept 7 It is thought that Germany is staking everything on one mighty battle. In a solid phalanx a hundred and fifty miles long the Kaiser is hurling his full strength against the Allies. General Von Kluek's force constitute the extreme right wing and General Von Ileerin gens body the extreme left. Five German armies are between these, all striking desperately at the same spot. Experts declare that the Kaiser's plan is to annihilate the Allies before they can mobilize their forces that may divide their own force. One-half of their force is now being rushed east ward to meet the Russians.

There seems to be a ereat deal of misunderstanding as to the time o! the opening of the schools this year. ine tacts are these: the Board Oi Education set Sept. 14. as the date on which school should open, and drew up the teachers contracts accordinsrlv State Superintendent Churchill set Sept. 14, 15 and 16, as the time of the Morrow County Teachers' Institute ind as teachers are required to attenc .he Institute there can be no school on those days. I-ast year the Board f Education declared Thursday and Friday of the County Fair as holi days. If it does so again this year there will not be any school on those lays. This takes up the entire first eek of the regular school time. Whether or not the Board of Educa tion will declare the last two days of !he next week as holidays, I do not know, neither is it very material tc parents or pupils as several days arc ilways taken up in organizing the classes for the year. WhileT am writing this I should like to say a few words to patrons ana prospective pupils. Despite the "fust ind feathers" Heppner still has one )f the best organized public school .ystem in the State of Oregon. The State Superintendent admits this am' die Board of Education, the Citj Superintendent and the teachers dt lot propose to turn aside in the mat er of keeping the scools ud to thi ligh standard they have had in tin last, in this etiort every patron am riend of education is asked to co perate. The Board of Education ha )xercised the greatest care in choos ng the corps of teachers for the com ng year. Every one is a teacher of experience and is either a Normal oi Jollege graduate. They come with the highest recommendations of sue ess in their profession. This, then, ulfiill the first requisite for a suc essful administration of any school system a corps of experienced, com petent and enthusiastic teachers. The rest resides with the patrons. Suffice t to say in passing that the outlook it ery good for the most succesful am irosperous year in the history of tht ichools and we take this opportunity :o invite all pupils of school age with jut regard to "race, color or previous condition ot servitude to come. Come and fill up the grades as well a? the high school. We are particularly proud of the high school. It is not arge yet, but it is growing in num ber as well as in equipment and studies offered. A short time ago a Commercial Course was added and it s a hummer. There is no bettei jquipped course of its kind in the itate. Chemistry and German were idded to the regular high school courses. This year we shall offer diology, giving an entire year to this nteresting and valuable science. As time goes on others will be added Surely there is something in these ligh school courses that will interest pvery young man and woman of higb ichool age. Come and inquire about t. If you can not take a full course, take part of a course, but do not let this exceptionally good opportunity to obtain a better education pass by. Respectfully yours, 11.. II. Hoffman, Supt. SERIOUS ACCIDENT IS RESULT OF BAD ROADS IONE, Oro.,(Specinl to The Herald) Glenn Ball was thrown out of his wheat wagon last Thursday morning when it hit one of the numerous chuck-holes on the grade south-east of lone. Before he could get up his horses became scared and ran into the wagons of Floyd Eraser who wbb iust ahead. As they started, young hall was struck in the back with the hub of his wagon and he said if he had been driving two wagons, friends would have had to haul him to town. When the Ball wagon hit the Fraser wagon it tore it to pieces, scattering groceries and grain all over the side of the hill. One of the mules which Ball was driving broke its leg and the other was so badly damaged that it is not fit to work. When the accident happened, the Fraser team also be came scared and ran into the Morris wagons which were about a mile .ihead of Fraser. These were prompt ly torn up as was the Fraser outfit .'rom the impact of the heavy wagons. Thus was considerable property de stroyed and several lives placed in jeopardy resulting from a bad stretch of road. People of this section of the county are up in arms over the condi tion of the roads and expect to take up the matter of putting same in re pair with the County Court at once. The stretch of road referred to in the above article is in about the same shape as the balance of the roads in this section of the county and anyone traveling in this vicinity takes his life in his hands each trip. Rev. Ferris left for Hood River. yesterday. He will'spend a few days among friends on the Columbia river camping and enjoying himself. Regu lar services will be conducted nt the Federated Church, however, as he ex pects to bo back before next Sunday. Everyono is welcome. Three weeks ago Charley Vaughn and wife, Earl Gilliam and wife and Len Gilliam started on a trip to tho coast in Vaughn's Case car. They took a complete camoine outfit and whenever they saw a good place to camp they unfolded their baggage and stopped. Odell Lake was tho first place that attracted them and they spent a day here fishing and with good success. They caught sev eral trout, one thirty-one inches long that weighed about ten pounds. Char ley said that he didn't have a yard stick but it looked that long. From here they went to Newport by way of the McKenzie route which delighted everyone in the purty. This is one of the scene routes of the state. Af ter a short stay on the coast which everyone regretted to leave they turned toward Portland. They stay ed a short time in the Rose City and then shipped up to The Dalles. Com ing from The Dalles to Heppner was the worst stretch of roads they en countered. The roads and weather were good in the Valley. They saw the fish hatchery on the McKenzie river which was an interesting sight and Charley said, "Everyone got fat on the trip." They will get a chance to work it off during the Fair. Judge William Galloway and Hon. R. A. Booth will be on hand on Fridav the 18th, and will speak before the people. These men are both able speakers and worth hearing by every one. Portland will send a large dele gation this year and many old Morrow County residents will be in attendance. uClDEHT HAPPENS AT IE Miss Evelyn Shipley is the new clerk at Wm. Iltiylor's jewelry store Marshal McCraw dropped in and like everyone else she thought that he wanted to look at rings diamond rings. Our friend Nys also has been looking at rings. IONE, Sept. 7 (Special to The Herald) While operating the wood aw here this afternoon, "Shorty" Calkins came near losing his life when '.ome part of the machine gave way. When the smoke had cleared away ind the different parts of the machine bad come to a stop, "Shorty" was inronscious, with his jawbone broke n two places and his body severely ut about the neck and shoulders. He vas taken to the doctor Immediately Will Padbcrg has strawed the road from his ranch to Lexington. This has improved the road, tilling the holes and done away with the dust. Hill should have a meiial for his good work and perhaps in the hereafter ho will get prominent mention for it. Two years ago, Riley Munkers straw ed the road from his place to Lexing ton and it has made it one of the best streU'hes of country road in that lo cality. There are only a few holes in it today and it was strawed two years ago. Let's straw all of the roaus. Mr. H. V. Gates, the owner of the local light plant has been in town for the past few days, leaving this morn ing for his home in Portland. He was looking over his property here and in tends to return again in the near future. FOR SALE O. I. C. hoars. One two-year old, weight 500 lbs., one five months old and several other pigs.
