Idaho and with the Wasco County Union there were more than 500 persons served. Eight large ta bles completely filled the lower floor of the Vogt theatre, where the ban quet was held, and these were covered with cold turkey, cranberrysauce, cel ery, pickels and other dishes. J. D. Brown of Arlington was re elected president of the Union earlier in the day and gave a short speech. "Nick" Sinnott was on hand and gave a talk showing the need of every man knowing the possibilities in the soil. Our old friend A. R. Shumway, was on hand also and mentioned a few weigh ty problems which were up to the or ganization to deal with. One of the important events was the making of moving pictures of the banqueters, which will be shown all over the state and which will be of interest to Mor row county people as there were sever al in attendance. MORAL SCUAD MEETS AGAIN The Moral Squad met last night at the regular meeting place. GurUane's Pastime. When the meeting was called to order Corporal Cornett was the ranking officer in charge. The first business was brought before the Squad by Private A. Farm Hand. "Members of the Squad, I want to bring to your attention some of the practices of some of our members.

It is my opinion that he acted very indescreet to be found doing such things and should be reprimanded for it." Corporal Cornet who had been listening to the speeches then rose to speak. There was much speculation as to what he would say. "Well, members of the Squad, it might seem a nine inconsistent lor me to pay what I shall in view of some recent happenings, but Mr. Ball should have used better judgment than to try to kill doga with an airgun, as it is hard enough to kill such animals with a real gun.
