t H Herald SEMI-WEEKLY EPPNI 1MI With which ia consolidated The lone Bulletin. A first class newspaper entered at the postofflce at Heppner, Oregon as second-class matter VOLUME 1 HEPPNER, OREGON, OCT. 13, 1914 NUMBER 35 4 BOSTON TAKES THIRD CONSECUTIVE AM E LEXINGTON ITEMS The Boston National League Base ball team defeated the Philadelphia American League Champions yester day by a score of 5 to 4 in the third game for the championship of the world. Bill James, formerly a pitcher for the Seattle Club of the Northwest League, was again in the box for Boston. He won his game Saturday against Plank, of Philadelphia by a score of 1 to 0, allowing only two hits. The first game of the series, Friday, was also won by Boston. If they win today they will cinch the series and will be the world's champ ion team. They are all a young, clean, manly set of fellows and have a won derful leader in Geo. Stallings. Bet ting before the series began was in favor of the Philadelphia Club. They have a wonderful record and a won derful club but Boston has had a meteoric rise in the National League and their pitchers seem to be almost unhittable. James is a strapping young fellow, only 24 years of age. CHRISTIAN CHURCH NOTES The revival services will continue all of this week. Sunday was a great day in the Bible School and Church services. Ihere were two additions to the church at the morning meeting. Next Sunday will be "Home Com ing Day." Following the morning service there will be lunch at the church for all. At 2 p. m. there will be a Fellow ship meeting participated in by a num ber of the members. Among our farmer friends who visi ted the county seat Saturday we notic ed the following: Ed Niell, Emmet Smith and mother of Butter Creek; Levi Hiatt and family, Eightmile; Henry F. Blahm and family, Glenn Hayes; Roy Missildine, Joe and Frank Mover, of Blackhorse; Ralph Benge, of Lexington; Charles Austin and wife from the mountains; Jack McCullough, J. A. Carmicheal from the mountains. Mrs. Morgan Troth is visiting rela tive and friends in Lexington this week. Mrs. Troth was a former resi dent of this place. Eugene Barton is back in Lexing ton again calling on old friends. There is a rumor that Mr. Carty will soon erect an extensive addition to his premises in the town. This new build ing, with the butcher shop recently completed adds much to the improve ments of our city. John Moore and wife are enjoying an outing in the mountains. Gus Mc Millan is taking Jonn s place on the dray. Art Parker is digging a ditch on his place so that he can install city water in his house. There was a man here in an auto, and gave moving pictures shows on ihursday and f riday night. He car ried his own electric apparatus in the auto. The notice was so short that only a few people were able to attend the firot night. Mrs. Breshears was a Heppner pas senger going by way of the auto on Thursday. Lonnie Copenhaver had the misfor tune to break his leg last Thursday while riding on a load of wheat. It seems like he drove over a chuck hole which he failed to notice and the jolt threw him off the wagon breaking his leg. The young man was brought to Heppner for medical attention in Mr. Hodsdon s auto. There is a lady osteopath doctor located in Lexington. Her office is situated across the street from Leach's store. Lexington needs a doctor and we hope this one has come to stay. The Lexington High School Lyceum courses have all been named for this year and we believe the first on the programme will be on October 12th, at the Congregational Church, hvery- body come. We will have to call on the Prof, and have him to treat us to a ride in his fine new Buick car. Monday is "Columbus Day" and we believe it is now a national holiday. All hail to the man who discovered this great America. A. B. Grover, well known lone rancher, called at the Herald office yesterday and deposited a little lucre with our financial department, and was accordingly pi t on our honor list. Mr. Grover is busy these days preparing to seed his fall wheat and will put in some fiOO acres. He sold his 1U11 crop of Club wheat a few days ago for 80c per bushel. Go to Church! No Man Too Busy to Give an Hour Each Week to God GO TO CHURCH! Is there a man in any community who is too busy to spend one hour each week in church? There are one hundred and sixty-eight hours in every week. No man is too busy to eat during the week. No man is too busy to snatch a few hours of recreation in every week. No man is too busy to sleep during the week. Yet there are men who will declare that they are so busy they can't afford to give one hour in every one hundred and sixty-eight to worship in God's house. In church you will find spiritual food and rest. Of all excuses for lack of attendance at church the "too busy" one is the flimsiest. Why isn't a man honest and admit that he doesn't want to go to church? Isn't it a fact that a man has a better feeling within himself and the world in general after he has spent an hour in the house of God ? n ONE OF THE FINEST SIGHTS OF THE LENTEN SEASON WAS THE NOONDAY CROWDS IN THE CHURCHES LOCATED IN THE BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL DISTRICTS OF NEW YORK CITY. THERE MIGHT BE FOUND SOME OF THE GREATEST MEN IN THE COUNTRY. IT IS A HOPEFUL SIGN OF THE TIMES. NONE OF THESE REALLY BIG MEN WAS TOO BUSY TO GIVE SEVERAL MINUTES DAILY TO THE WORSHIP OF GOD. INCIDENTALLY, THESE BIG MEN BY THEIR EXAMPLE PREACHED POWERFUL SERMONS. Don't hide behind the "too busy" pretext. It is too thin. If you have an important business or social engagement you will find time for it. God asks you to meet him for at least an hour every Sun day. Can't you arrange your engagements so that you can meet him? The visit will not be a disagreeable one. Surely you are not ashamed to be seen in church? You no doubt have been seen in worse places. GO TO CHURCH! NEWS I HARDMAN ' Dr. Gaunt and G A. Bleakman went to the mountains Friday to kill what few deer there were in that neighbor hood. Joe Howell is in the mountains now, getting his winter's meat. Mrs. Wess Booker got back from Mrs. Matt Hughes where she has been working. She reported Mrs. Hughes getting along nicely. Mrs. J. B. Adams has purchased a new sewing machine. It is one of the best. Owen Leathers got in from the sheep camp where he has been herd ing for A. E. Wright. M. E. Devore left town Saturday for Jim Wylnnd's ranch where he in tends to herd sheep this winter. D. B. Leathers was in from his mountain ranch Saturday. Frank Fvntes came up from his ranch in Eightmile to see his children who are staying with T. H. Deen and ?oing to school. John Furlong who has been haul ing wheat for Fred Ashbaugh, is go ng back to Ins rai'.ch in the Monu ment country. Raymond Wright was in from his mountain ranch Sunday. Clarence Howell and Jim Wyland, itraw boss, was in town from the Wyland ranch Sunday. Roy Boggs from the Monument country came through town on his way to Heppner after a load of frieght. LOCAL DAIRYMEN ARE IN THE LEAD WITH IMPROVEMENTS IHOUGH.FOR THESE Among the star players in the foot ball game Saturday between the U. of O. and Whitman College at Eugene, was John Beckett, a former Eightmile boy, and a brother of the Beckett boys who are well known ranchers of that vicinity. John is playing tackle and was a strong factor in breaking up the Whitman plays. The fact that The Herald's subscrip tion list is advancing faster than that of any other newspaper in this sec tion of Eastern Oregon is appreciated by the O.-W. K. & N. Co., who have notified us that we are now to have their advertising matter placed in our columns. It is almost an iron-clad rule of the railroad company not to adverti.se in a paper established less than one year, hut after five months of life the Herald is to prove an ex ception to this rule and will receive patronage from the railroad upon the reconciliation of their traveling pas senger agent, Mr. J. E. Miller. On last Tuesday evening being a still night our attention was aroused by a queer noise coming from the di rection of the center of the town. We listened, stopped, and then listened abain and finally we noticed some of our city fathers winding their way to the city council. Say what is the mat ter with that city hre bell: Does it need greasing or is it cracked like the famous Liberty Pell? It certainly should be fixed for it's of very poor use as a fire bell in its present condi tion. There seems to be a lot of target shooting in the confines of the city by certain parties. What about it? Isn't it against the rules of the city? IONE ITEMS N. F. Lawson, who recently sold his place to Scott Bros., took a trip down through the Valley from Portland to Newberg and came back to Heppner last week. "Morrow County U good enough for me," he told the Herald man Saturday. "Things are very quiet in the Valley and there are a dozen farmers from near Newburg who are coming to Heppner to take a look at the country in the near fut ure," he said. His father. W. C Lawson, who leased his farm to Scott Bros., has decided not to leave Mor row County and is now looking for a place to buy. IS I Don't foget the first number of the High School Lyceum Course which takes place tomorrow, Wednesday, night. It will be held in the High School auditorium. Elizabeth de Barrie Gill will be the attraction. She is a harpist entertainer and a con tralto soloist.

Robinson, better known as "Hob", will entertain an audience at the Club building tonight (Tuesday) with a talk on the prohibition question from a liberal standpoint. Mr.Robin son 1ms traveled extensively and is well qualified to speak on the subject. He lived in Alaska for a numlwr of years. Wet or Dry, it will do you good to h"Hr him. W. J. Blake, road supervisor, has had a crew of men working on the bridge below town the past few days. lone string orchestra had its week ly practice at the Pennington home last Thursday night. Mr. J. T. Knappcnberg came up from Portland with Mrs. Jackson's large "American Six" last Thursday. He was accompanied by J. A. Harbke. Mr. A. B. Grover was in town Sat urday with a wagon load of chickens for a local merchant. Almost every one in lone has had his head read by Prof. Vinter T. Cooper,, Phrenologist, who is giving lectures at the Congregational. If you ever get a chance to hear this man you will never regret it. Minister Handsaker pf the Chris tian Church is very well pleased with the atendance and Interest shown at the revival services which have been in progress several weeks. He was greeted with a packed house Sunday morning and evening, lhe services will be continued at least all of this week and possibly longer. Attorney Glenn Y. Wells and C. E. Woodson were at Lexington Friday where a civil case was tried before Justice White, in which Chas. E. Roberts was suing B. S. Clarke for the landlord's share of the 11)14 wheat crop. Mr. Wells appeared for the plaintiff and Mr. Woodson for the de fendant The Court took a few days to study the case before rendering a decision. Mr. Wm. Hynd, the well known Sand Hollow rancher, was in Hepp ner yesterday and left again for Ukiah, from whence he came Satur day night. Mr. Hynd is looking after his band of 7000 sheep which are feeding at the interior town. Having purchased a 1915 Model Maxwell "25," I am offering my 1914 model at a great bargain. Will take a team of work horses in part paymer.i. Dr. Winnard, Heppner, Ore. For the next few weeks, O. M. Yeager, the carpenter contractor, will Se at the K. F. Wigglosworth farm on Butter Creek, and anyone wishing to onsult him on the subject of build ing or repairing, please call him at that place. W. O. Baylesa returned Friday eve ning from Salem where he attended the State Fair. Mr. Bayle.ss had quite an exhibit at the local fair and all his products were taken to Salem with the Morrow County exhibit. Rev. Ferris announced Sunday that he would be out of the city attending a convention next Sunday and for that reason would not hold preaching Her vices as usual. The Herald man made a trip down to The Alfalfa Lawn Dairy ranch last Saturday to inspect the new milk house. The machinery for same was installed last week by Mr. H. P. Evans of Monroe & Crissell, of Portland. Mr. Evans was very courteous in ex plaining to us the various labor-saving and sanitary apparatus. The milk is brought Irom the dairy barn and poured into a large tank. From the tank it passes over a "Chilly King" cooler and is then strained three times. It passes into a bottle filling machine. Four bottles are filled in the twink ling of an eye and the machine gives in accurate measure. The bottles are then put in a crate nnd the crate is placed into a large tank of ice cold water, where they remain over night. The building which contains the ma chinery was just recently built by J. il. Cox of Heppner and it is kept tightly closed as much as possible in order to prevent dust from entering. The floor is of cement and the inside walls are the same. At one end of the main room is the bottle washing and sterilizing department. Here the bottles are cleaned by a turbine wash er. The bottles are then rinsed in boiling water and placed upside down in a crate where they remain until dry. The steam used to clean pails and other utensils thoroughly cleans es them and kills any germs that might be present. In a separate room is a 10 h. p. internal furnace steam boiler. Besides fu"nishing the hot water and steam needed in the milk department the boiler is used to force water from a nearby spring to a reservoir on the hill. It is the in tention of Wightman Brothers to in stall a vacuum milking machine in the spring. By this process one man can do the work of several and from the time the milk is taken from the ow's udder until it is poured from the bottle in your own home it is never exposed to the air and is therefore absolutely clean. Heppner people may not appreciate fully the efforts of these gentlemen to furnish them with such a brand of milk. It is worth your time to make a trip to the Alfalfa Lawn Dairy and see the im provements which have been installed at a cost of many dollars. You will then be certain that your milk sup ply is handled in a clean and sanitary manner. J. II. Edwards and son, O. wards, were in from Sand Saturday. O. K'- HolloW A. A, Hahn, whoo farmed near Lexington the past few seasons, has rented the Dave llerren place of l.iOO acres southeast of Heppner, and mov ed his personal effects to his new lo cation last Wednesday. The llerren ranch is a fine combination grain and stock farm. Jas. Carty, the well kown sheepman of the sand country, was in Heppner Friday looking after business mutters and left the price of a couple of year's subscription with the Heruld. Miss Lucy Ewing and Mrs. Jessie Forkner, who live on Willow Creek be low Cecil, were in Heppner during the latter part of last week, returning home Saturday. Jas. Hayes and family and Elra Hayes returned Thursday evening from an overland trip to Eugene where they visited relatives. They were gone for nearly three weeks and had u most enjoyable trip.
