HEPPNEK, OREGON, FRIDAY, JUNE 28 1918.
NUMBER 8
Representative citizens from
all parts of the county gathered
at the Palace hotel Monday even
ing to unite to a farewell recep
tion and dance in honor of the
valiant soldier boys who left
Tuesday morning for CampLewis
to enter upon a course of inten
sive training in the art of war,
which is destined to fit thetn for
a part in the greatest drama of
all the ages the winning of the
present war and the establish
ment of a better type of civiliza
tion than the world has hereto
fore known, as well as an endur
ing and universal peace.
All of the boys making up the
contingent of 18 selected for the
above date from the draft list
of this county were not present,
e'ght of them being scattered in
distant states and counties. They
will report for service from
wherever they chance to be, but
their places were tilled at least
in pirt by several boys from
other counties who, for conven
ience, reported at Heppner to
take the train for Camp Lewis.
The big dining room of the
Palace was filled to capacity
when Mayor Smead, who acted
as chairman for the evening,
called the meeting to order and
announced the opening number,
"The Star Spangled Banner."
This was followed by introduc
tory remarks by Mayor Smead
and by splendid vocal solos by
the Misses Blanche Minor, Peg
gy O'Raurke and Edith Thorley,
all of whom are favorites with
Heppner audiences. Short ad
dresses were also made during
the evening by S. A. Pattison
and Francis A. McMenamin.
Following the program the
dining room was cleared and two
or three hours were given over
to dancing, much to the delight
of all the young people as well us
many of the older ones who fool
old Father Time by drifting back
to other days to the accompany
ment of rhythm and melody,

Morrow County School Notes
The proof that the teachers of
Morrow county and their pupils
measured up to the test of effici
ency whicn was set for them
during the past school year, is
shown by the following report of
the Junior Red Cross, Thrift
Campaign and Industrial Club.
The following report was sub
mitted May 1, 1918:
Liberty Bonds ownsd
by teachers & pupils. 112,150 00
War Savings Stamps
owned by teachers
and pupils 2,721.89
Thrift Stamps owned
by pupils 603.03
Dues received from
Junior Red Cross 148.05
Made by entertainm'ts 308 96
Spent . 19 20
On hand 190 65
The amount made from enter
tainments was not all retained
by the Juniors. Lexington Red
Cross donated $42.50 to the Lex
ington branch A. R. C , this sum
was made by an entertainment
given by the little folks.
District 15, known as the Clark
Canyon school, donated $50 to
the above named branch. This
amount was raised by the school
at an entertainment.
In district 16 $72 76 was raised
by the Juniors at an entertain
ment given by their school and
turned over to the lone branch.
A play given at lone, and the
sale of popcorn, netted $69 70,
which amount was also given to
the lone branch.
Fifteen dollars raised in dis
trict 34 was turned over to the
chapter at Heppner.
The amount raised by the Jun
iors at Hardman was $66; $61.70
of the amount was put in the Jun
ior fund, making a total in that
fund for the year of $209.75.
We have now 32 Junior Auxil
iaries with 978 members. In
most of the districts activities
will be carried on during the
summer months.
Our allotments, consisting of
1 box boys' trousers, 25 shoulder
shawls, 15 house gowns, 50 prop
erty bags and I quilt are not
quite filled, there being only 100
pair of boys' trousers completed,
we need 200; also 7 house gowns,
5 shoulder shawls. 75 property
bags. In addition, however, we
have 1 sweater, 4 quilts, 36,500
gun wipes, 7 checker boards and
checkers, 1 set of dominoes, 1

Recent Deaths
Charles 11. Pointer, one of the
best known residents of the Lex
ington district, passed away at
the Heppner hospital Friday
evening af last week, aged about
41 years.
Mr. Pointer underwent an op
eration for appendicitis a few
days previous to his death and
was rapidly recovering from its
effects. So rapid, indeed, had
been his improvement that it was
believed, only a few moments
prior to his death, he could leave
the hospital and return to his
home withiu a few days. With
out warning, however, one of the
rare complications developed
which might, once in lOOo
times follow an operation of this
nature, and the end came almost,
instantly.
Deceased was highly respected
as a neighbor and a citizen and
was one of the successful farm
ers of the county. A widow and
four young children survive him,
