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!

Among the star players in the foot
ball game Saturday between the U.

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?

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.
