Hardman Is a little town,
Just a dot upon the map;
And when people hear its name.
They wonder where it's at.
We have a little high school
And we go there to learn.
We took the job of janitor,
A little money for to earn.
We kids get along together flue.
And do what we think is right.
The old folks don't by any means
They are always in a fight.
The furnace would not work at all.
And they said we made it binoke;
But if they had worked as hard as
we,
They could see it was no joke.
They said we put ice on th ther
mometer To draw the mercury low,
And never get things hot enough
To melt an ounce of snow.
liut the old folks helped us out a
hit
When they got their heads to
gether, And I think we will make it now
If we don't have colder weather.
The girls, you bet are doing line,
And we all work the same,
liut when the old folks get too
rank
They share their part of the blame
We have rented Asbaugh's Hall
Our basket, ball to play.
We think we got it reasonably,
For casli we always pay.
Tiie old folks, though they kicked
at that
They said we had no richt
To spend our money foolishly
Oh, Oee! but they are tight.
When Monument saw this little
dot
Called Hardman on the map
Thoy sent us kids a challenge
Aud thought they had a snap.
We traveled through the mud and
snow.
And walked until we were sore,
Aud to their surprise and our de
"gbt '
We made the highest score.
Lone llock is another town,
liut the place is rather small,
And like the other little towns
Can play SOMK basket ball.
When Lone ltock came to meet us
They brought, the best they had,
liut. under such condition.s
We beat tin 111 very bad.
Then when we played with them
again,
Over in their own heme town,
The game was not so easy won,
liut another jewel in our crown.
Now lleppner is a great big place,
Willi hunks and electric lights,
Slate Highway Commissioner W. li
llarralt' returned fro tnPortl.ind Sun
day where he has been r,. rftim lime
attending to iit'llchil dmles. During
his absence Mr. llarralt and Mr. Leon
made a trip to the coast via. the
-.SluHlaw river and sundry roads and
trails to look over a proposed hlgh
way Into that country.
Many water pipes In Ileppnes froze
"tip within the last few days after the
liurd freezing weather was pa.sl,
much to the HUiprise and disgust of
property owners. The solution of
the problem Is said lo be that the
frost keeps going deeper, even after
the temperature rises until a gonei-.il
thaw occurs. W. S. Piuyn rigged a
couple of transformers on a truck ami
by "stepping down" tin- power cur-
lent to the proper voltage and by nu
lling a current of "juice" through
the pipes, soon thawed I hem out.

The Heprner h:gh school challen
ged us
For a game of basketball,
They may be really high school
boys.
Though they are rather large and
tall.
When we went out to meet them,
We looked at them with 'Joys,'
And wondered where they got
their men,
IF these were just their boys.
We are all bruised and skinned
and sore,
From sole up to our head.
They even knocked our captain out
And we were sure that he was
dead.
And then the umpire said we
roughed them
"You are as rough as you can be,
AVe are not playing football.
But basketball you see."
The Hardman hall is rather small
For guys like that to play in
And when the ball did hit thewall
It is hard for folks to stay iu.
The Chinaman with them did
stand.
In all his pride and glory
And from the center or the wall
He'd make a goal, bo-gory!
The lleppner team is hard to beat,
Until we have more practice;
Then just as sure as we live and
eat,
We'll keep the ball on its axis.
But if we practice any more
As I can plainly see,
We are sure to flunk in our exams,
And then where would we be?
Now talk about our old folks,
I tell you what's the fact;
Whenever we play basketball,
THEY ARE ALWAYS AT OUR
BACK!
