cate. Kaiser is said to be praying for

) Maks Boycott Work
Heppner was treated to a first
class exhibition of a strike and
boycott the other evening when
the management of a local dance
hall put out a two-bit admission
sign in addition to the one dollar
charge for dancing. The new
ruling affected both sexes and the
first remonstrance came from a
bevy of young ladies who flatly
refused to pay, gathered on the
corner of Main and Willow and
stopped everyone who seemed to
be headed for the dance hall
Threats to boycott the house and
put on an independent dance at
the Fair pavilion won the day and
soon the obnoxious sign was re
moved and peace and quiet again
reigned.
Red Cross Notes
At a called meeting of the exe
cutive committee Wednesday
evening it was decided that two
delegates should be sent from
this chapter to the Seattle con
vention which is called to meet
in that city May 6 11 inclusive.
The purpose of this convention
is to give instru3tions to repre
sentatives from every chapter in
the district in the latest methods
of carrying on the work, especi
ally in the surgical dressing de
partment. Mrs. L. G. Herren,
who has had charge of the work
in that department since the
chapter was organized, and who
has given much in time and ef
fort to the cause.and Mrs.Whiteis,
formerly head nurse in the Hepp
ner hospital, were selected as
delegates to attend the Seattle
convention. The two ladies will
have joint charge of the surgical
dressing department in the fut
ure. thus dividing the burdens
as well as the responsibilities of
the position.
Mrs. Cohn, president of the
Chapter, and an indefatigable
worker for the Red Cross will be
unable to attend the convention
because of illness in her family.
Twenty-four members were
present at the sewing room Wed
nesday and six took work home.
