SIXDAY
IDEAS FOR THE PUBLIC PARK
JKITTF.Il ROAD TO UK IMPKOYKI)
AT OXOK
W. O. Minor and M. D. Clark have
raised a popular subscription of
$1035 to be used in improving the
Toad down Ditch creek between
Heppner and Ritter. The county
court has agreed to match all the
money raised by subscription and it
is believed by those conversant with
the proposed road that a good road
can be built for about $2000.
Mr. Minor and Willard Herren ex
pect to leave tomorrow morning for
Ditch creek to make a survey and do
other preliminary work with a view
to having everything ready for the
ro.id crew which will be put on the
work immediately after the fourth.
Points That Should Be Given Consid
eration Before the Final Plana
Are Made.
In the landscape architect's Ideal
conception of an acre of park for every
hundred inhabitants, there Is no guide
for calculating park space appropriate
to a town of 5,000. It Is evident that
an acre, more or less, would not be a
determining factor in Its vnlue. The
problem of relative size is really a lo
cal one, Its answer depending on the
community's facilities for outdoor en
joyment, on the benefits that will ac
crue to It by the acquisition of a park,
and on the specific idea which lies be
hind the desire for a park.
Camping and picnicking, two legiti
mate park uses, both suggest an ap
peal to the motorist. A good camp
site Is pre-eminently adapted to the
attraction of strangers, thereby bringing-
some added trade; to the town mer
chants. For the campers good drain-
age Is essential.
A lilting entrance Is the first Impni-
tnnt consideration. If the park Is near
the business section of the town, ex
tending the approach to t lie main
street by menus of a parking strip
planted to trees is very effective. Such
a strip, extending for one block along

Jimmy Wilson who used to live in
Heppner when he was a young man
and before he bloomed out as a !
distance promoter of the national
game, breezed into town last Sunday
with what he described as a bunch
of cripples who thought they could
play ball, but, .so he whispered into
the reportorial ear, "they all have
glass arms and carry big balls of
ivory around on their necks." The
last time Jimmy was in Heppner he
paid for a year's subscription to Che
Herald and as he was feeling a bit
sporty that day it cost him $4.00 He
evidently hoped to get even last Sun
day and seemed to figure that he
could yegg a bunch of kale out of
the same sack his litle old four drop
ped into. Jimmy failed to get a
game, however, Saturday having
been a poor day for subscriptions, by
reason of which this great family
journal is able to again appear with
an unvarnished account of Pendle
ton's game.
In referring to the exhibition as
Pendleton's game we speak advised
ly. Pendleton got about every
thing there was insight including
Heppner's nanny and if they had
wanted anything more than they got
they would have been worth 17y2
cents per pound on foot, f. o. b.,
Heppner, billed through to the Union
Stock Yards. But they didn't. They
were decent about it and really took
onl ywhat was, in a way, forced upon
them. The only.'kick Heppner has
about the affair is that Jimmy Wil
son insisted on insisting that it as
a good game: "the bist I iver saw in
me life," he averred, when every fan
in Heppner knew it was the rottenest
game ever played.
SOCIETY NOTES

MRS. THOMSON" EXTKRTAIXS
Mrs. George Thomson pleasantly
entertained a small party of friends
at bridge last Wednesday afternoon
at her cosy home on south Court
street. Three tables were occupied
and the play was spirited throughout
Following the games refreshments
were served. Mrs. Fred Lucas and
Miss Black were awarded the prizes.
A PLEASANT PARTY
Mrs. Roy Cochran and her sister,
Miss Merle Cason entertained a num
ber of friends at the home of Mrs. J.
F. Vauglian last Thursday afternoon
when eight tables were occupied by
a merry party of bridge players. Mrs.
Arthur McAeee secured -the first
prize, Delicious refreshments were
served following the games.
Mr. Stephens spoke in a general way
on dry farming paying particular at
attention, to the best methods for in
creasing the yield of wheat in the
Columbia river basin.
Mr. .Stephens believes that but lit
tle difference exists regarding soil,
climate, etc., between Sherman and
Morrow counties and that the experi
ments being conducted at his station
will apply to conditions in all of the
surrounding counties. No country in
Che world, he affirmed,, will produce
as good crops of wheat with the
same amount of rainfall as does this
section of Oregon and weather bu-
believes that from sin to ten Inches
is deep enough for any purpose.
Packing the ground after planting he
says, is not beneficial. Speaking of
varieties the speaker favors Turkey
Red and Fortyfold for this section.
Following Mr. Stephens' address
the farmers showed their deep in
terest in his talk by asking many
questions thus bringing out much
valuable information on points he
had not touched on.
The afternoon program was enliv
ened by some splendid musical and
literary selections those favoring
with the music being Mrs. R. J.
Vauehan. Mrs. Frank Turner, and a.

county has an average rainfall of 16 with Mrs. C. L. Sweek acting as aa

Miss Kathleen Mahoney was host
ess to a bevy of her young girl
friends last Friday evening .at a
"Fourteen" party the occasion being
her fourtenth birthday. Fourteen
young girls of about Miss Mahoney's
age, were present and every featrue
of the evening was voted fourteen
times better than good. Games and "
refreshments- of the kind that bring '.is

inches. If Sherman county, then lias
been able to produce better wheat
crops than Morrow county the dif
ference must be in varieties and cul
tivation methods.
The speaker urged early discing of
lartd to be planted to spring grain
saying it is suicidal to plant wheat
after April 15th unless the ground
has been thoroughly disced early in
the season. He has found no appre
ciable difference in the yield as be
tween deep and shallow plowing and
ings and little Johnny Turner gave
a recitation entitled: "Boost," that
hit the nail on the head.
Altogether the occasion was a
great success and one 'highly enjoyed
by town and country folk alike.
Heppner needs more such get-together
meetings and it is to be hoped
that the affair of last Saturday will
be the fore-runner of many such.

it was harmonious and gentlemanly
