IF YOU WANT THE NEWS WHILE IT IS NEWS, READ THE HERALD. WE PRINT IT FIRST. J.; -Jo, 0U i is ( m VOLUME IX HFJTXER, OREGON, TUESDAY NOVKMHI-R 7, 19 22 FOUR DAIS LEFI I?! SECOND PERIOD 10 GEI BIG RESULTS lour more days. These three words have a mighty weaning when we consider the importance of the re sult the Herald's big campaign has gained rapidly Hearing its conclusion The last of the present big credit offer will undoubtedly be the decid Ing factor in determining the win ners of the splendid array of prizes which have dazzled the eyes of the entire community because of their exceptional value. For the past week the club mem bers have been engaged in accumu lating the credits and during the time the Herald's big campaign has gain ed tame that is widespread. This is the most liberal subscription cam paign ever inaugurated in this sec tion. The efforts and diligence of the club members these past few weeks will be crowned with an avalainche of credits that will be a surprise to those who are watching this race from the sidelines. This is the time for all participants to hurl themselves with vim and vigor into the last ditch. The Herald is justly proud of the list of candidates who are competing with might and main in the campaign for the thousands of dollars offered in prizes. It seems that each com munity and neighborhood has chosen its brightest and most energetic lead ers as a representative. And these favorites are well fulfilling the ex pectations of their hundreds of friends and supporters. Pep, Push and Perseverance are the three keys that will unlock any door in the world. They will unlock the door to the valuable prizes offered by the Herald in its big auto campaign. They will unlock the master door that leads to the new Ford Sedan, Beautiful Chesterfield Set, etc., that the Herald is giving away. 1 COMMIMTY SING AT LEXIXGTOX 151G SUCCESS - I " ' " The community sing given at Lex ington last Friday evening for the bene! it of the Red Cross Roll Call, was a great success according to those who were fortunate enough to be present. A large crowd was pres ent to enjoy the program which was well arranged and rendered. Superintendent Kellogg with his corps of teachers and the pupils of the Lexington high school are ali entitled to much praise: for their part in making the occasion a success as are Mr. and Mrs. Karl Beach, Miss Barnetf, Henry Miller and others. Addresses were made by Rev. Gil lenders and Rev. Palmer, of Lexing ington, and Mrs. Emmett Cochran, of Heppner who is chairman of the Red Cross drive. BREEZY NEWS NOTES FROM HEPPNER HIGH HERALD TO PUBLISH PETITION OUT FOR Petitions are being circulated along the line of ttie new proposed Rural Route between Heppner and Arling ton and it is uunderstooa with very good success. Counuty Agent Calkins is entitled to credit for initiating t.":o project and correspondence he has had with postal authorities in Washington is encouraging Ti.e service will give Heppner and ali intervening points their mail some six hours earlier than at present. It is not proposed that this service shall cary anything but letter and c-. man ana me tear ex pressed by a Lexington correspon dent that the service may interfere with the welfare of the postoffices and postmasters along the line is Slot well founded. This is one way the investment in the Oregon-Washington highway .iay be capitalized to the benefit of all people and to the detriment of no ore. Beginning today the Herald will publish, as a matter of news, the full proceedings of the regular monthly meetingsof the board of county com missioners. This step is taken be cause recent inquiries among our readers in all parts of the county re veals that many readers want the full and oficial proceedings of the county board every month. The Herald, under its present man agement, has always striven to, as nearly as possible, give all of the news of Morrow county and while there have been times when cirrui stances have seriously interfered with making the Herald the kind 0r , news medium we want it to be, w feel that it has been gradually im proving and taking its place as a real local county paper. Attention is also directed to the increasing amount of county news v..litu in uie iieraia. nn reature m the making county newspaper. The Herald has enjoyed a steady growth in circulation during the past four years and the ni i , JICL11U- tion campaign is rapidly putting the paper into every home in the countv and contigious trade territory.

Our Sunday School is growing in numbers and interest, the Men's class and the High School class are doing much towards building up a The boys and girls gave a fine pro gram Sunday night which was en joyed by all. Every seat was taken in the main auditorium. One of the high school boys will lead the prayer meeting Thnrs.inv , ni'ht. This service is meaning much to our church. Next Sunday at the evening ser vice there will be a sped,, ser... reserved for the soldi.-r w t.. The high school was very pleased to have so many town people and students turn out to the game last Saturday between Condon and Hep pner high school teams. The score was a very close one ending in a tie 7 to 7 and we would have been perfectly happy had not one or two rooters caps disappeared in the mix up. The student body meeting held last week has probably been the most talked-of for quite a while. The new constitution was read and unani mously approved and then a new1 tra dition for the Freshman pennant was voted on. Heretofore, the pennant wag hung In assembly by the class, and if it remained there 24 hours it could stay up, but if, and this was generally the case, the pennant was not on the wall at the end of that period, a series of class fights usual ly ensued. Hereafter, all class scraps will be carried on outside of. school hours, the "Frosli' being required to hoist their pennant, or one judged by the Seniors to be represe'ntable of the new one, on a pole near the school house and defend it for twenty-four hours. The Seniors are tn :ict , judges and policemen to see that the Juniors and "Sophs" don't deal too harsh with the new "Frosli."' A new sent was added in the Jun ior row last week for Emery Good man, formerly of Umapine, Oregon. Did you wonder what all the noise was for alter school last Wednesday and Thursday? No use keeping you guessing. it was high school yell practice! Heppner high school students prov ed to Heppner last Friday night that they were certainly very far from be ing "pepless" and dead when they staged the biggest rally in the his tory of the high school for maiy years. Almost every student met at the lower corner of Main street, marched 1 up that street giving yells and mak ing much noise. After several nln K.-.., . ... " luuueu iroin ineir peace- I ful slumbers, and the teachers were serenaded, the crowd gave some yells in the hotel and at the picture show. Then they marched to the hill where the "Frosh" had erected a lmge pile of wood for the evening bonfire. Short speeches were given by teachers, players and students and then games were played until the football boys "fateful hour nf ninB was pronounced. The success of the rally was due to Mr. McCarty, who so kindly offer ed us the "makin's" for the fire, to Mr. Sigsbee, for our use of the show in advertising our game, and to the "Frosh" who did their work with a smile.
