Editor of the Herald: 1 I want to express by gratitude to the people of Heppner and vicinity for their liberal support in the recent election. I spent two weeks time in the campaign and received 15,685 votes, or over 30 per cent of the regis tered vote. The highest vote in pro portion to the registration ever given a Prohibitionist for Congress in the United States. This is not because I was the can didate but rather because the people. are aroused on this great reform as never before. I consider the vote on the Prohi Amendment one of the greatest victories in the history of the reform and predict that other states will follow in rapid succession. Most Respectfully, Geo. L. Cleaver. IV. pro- FEDEItATED CHURCH Rev. Will N. Ferris Minister. Our Motto: With thyself practice the utmost strictness as touching the things that thou shalt believe and do.

If pu pils who contemplate entering one or more of these lines of work will notify me at once, I will send the teacher of such pupils the information sheets.

Teachers and pu pils should not delay giving considera tion to this work. There will be regular morning and evening services at the Christian Church next Sunday.
