NUMBER 16 H H o SEPT. 13, 14, 15 The next meeting: of the Mor row County Fair, September 13, 14 and 15, promises to be bigger, better and more interesting than any of its predecessors. The management is leaving nothing undone to insure a successful meeting and one that will add to Morrow county's past laurels as one of the leading grain and stock counties of Oregon. In spite of the continued dry weather and consequent crop shortage, Secretary Smead as sures the Herald that a splendid agricultural exhibit is already in sight and is being added to every day. The people of the county take pride in their annual Fair and that is what counts when the matter of a creditable exhib it is being considered. Among the numerous outside attractions already engaged for the big event are Parson's Nov elty Band, of Portland, compos ed of men and women artists who who wtfl furnish instrumental and vocal music; the Hitt Fire works Co., who will put on a grand display of pyrotechnic wonders, a Ferris wheel, a "Car ry-Us-AH" and many minor at tractions. Mrs- Edyth Tosier Weatherred, a member of the State Fair Board, and one of Oregon's most talented women, will be' present during the entire meeting and will speak each day on some per tinent topic. Hon. James Withycombe, gov ernor of Oregon, will be present and make an address on Satur day, September 15th. The gov ernor is an eminent citizen,. an acknowledged authority on all matters pertaining to the fann ing and livestock industries and his address will doubtless be an illuminating feature of the meet ing. . There will be dancing in the pavilion every evening and all lover3 of the terpsichorean art will be able to enjoy their favor ite pastime to the limit. All Morrow county will attend the Fair and the occasion will be made a real gala time in the his tory of Heppner. Now Bank Building Looming Up At last the bricklayers are busy ou the new home for the First National Bank and enough of the white brick walls are in place to give au inkling of the handsome appearance the build ing w:ll present when completed. The trusses which will support the second floor are now in place and their solid appearance indicates something of the sta bility which will characterize the new building, which, in it self is typical of the business stability and financial solidity of the institution itself. When completed the First Na tional will not only be far aud away the finest building in the county but it may be looked up on as typical of the new Hepp- LOCAL BOARD CERTIFIES 40 MEN COUNTY QUOTA M COMPLETE The local exemption board has practically completed its work connected with the first draft and have certified 40 men to the district board at LaGrande.
