PLANNING A BETTER HEPPNER
"Naturally, all outdoors is beautiful. It is through so-called
civilization that this beauty is marred to such an extent thwe
eomes in time a movement for restoring it." J. H. McFarland,
president American Civic As-sociation.
Taking the above statement as a text, it mav fbe sai'd
that feu, if , -any, American communities arc exempt from
ine iiiuictineiii.
No doubt when the first white man viewed the pres
ent location of Hcppner, lie was impressed with the beauty
the spot. One can easily visualize, the unmarred beauty
of the scene that met his eye. The grass-clad hills, the
willow-fringed stream, the clear cut sky line on every
hand.
The natural beauty of the location may have induced
the first settler to drive his stakes and build his cabin here,
out it is not prohaljle that any such aesthetic considera
tions prompted the first merchant to bring in his load of
beans and bacon, powder and shot, shoes and overalls, and
start the first store where Hcppner now stands. ft is
much more likely that the divers Indian trails crossing
each other at this point, indicating the future travel
courses of the coming white population, was the primary

early business man, like his modern brother, came here to
make money, and it is unlikely that he stayed awake
nights planning a "city beautiful" for the coming gener
a lions. Perhaps the early "shacks" like some of the pres
ent ones, marred the natural beauty of the location, but
reverting to our text, there must come in time a move
ment -for reslorinsf that beaut v.

We have long been told that not much could be done

now seems opportune to at least start a movement to re

early and present day civilization.
To make Heppner the really beautiful town it has a

The last number of the lyceum
course given here under the auspices
ot me patron-:ea:iier association,
was given lar.t Friday evening, Ros
elth Knapp Breed, noted humorist
and entertainer, being the attrac
tion. Mrs. Breed's program, whiqii
consisted of monologues, character
sketches and short stories, was well
received. The course has been a
success and it is understood that a
similar course has been arranged for
next winter, this time being under
the direction of the high school. It
is understood that the recent course
was a success financially as well as
in point or merit.

I, el us, ihen, begin now to plan how we can best make
Hcppner an attractive home town. It will require much
(bought, considerable effort, united action for the com

is it worth the effort? Assuredly. Have we the
class ot people in Iieppner who can work out such a plan
' ami put it over? Certainly ue have them, plenty of them.
I'lenty of capable business men. Plenty of capable, in
telligent, vi.-ioning women to put anv 'good movement
over once they get together and begin thinking along in
telligent, practical ami united lines.
What a wonderful opportunity for community ser
vice and community betterment is here offerred for 'the
consideration of the Brotherhood, the Civ ic club, the Pat
ron teachers, and the Commercial club.
All that is needed is a definite plan, well thought out
to start with, a unity of purpose to carry the work
along, and a general self-effacement of the individual for
the aggrandizement of the community to complete the
work.
Isn't it worth thinking about, talking of, writing for,
planning out ?

Will Sensitiveness to Criticism Make
Woman Raise Political Morality?
By EDWARD II. I:SEDS, Psychologist.
J he purely thinking mind is fundamentally alike in both saxes
There is 110 foundation for the traditional inferiority of the feminine in
tellect. The great handicap is apparently first, the craving of the little
girl for parental approbation, then of the maiden for the approbation of
her suitors, and V:-n thc mature woman f,r the approbation of her hus
band or her employers.
It is in the business world that this tenitmry is the greatest handicap
to women. Shrewd employers of women know that well timed approba
tion and praise often will be an entirely satisfactory substitute for a raise
in salary or the payment of a just wage.
Whether this sensitiveness to criticism will cause women to raise the
standard of political morality remains to be seen. There is good reason
to hope it will.
