WHY XOT AX Af TlXVB ? Whv not an auto club or Morrow county? The good roads movement i is growing stronger every day and soijtf pf t,le best boosters for B0"d roads are the auto owners. Over in pur sister county, Umatilla, plans are 'under wav for the forming of such an organization. Its object will be to advocate and work for better high-; wavs and to cooperate in meeting the . various problems that present them-j selves to owners of motor cars. The j movement is a logical one, for who j can see the benefits from goon u more than the autoists. Who enjoys them more? The organization of a well formed auto club in Morrow county would be a great help in the good roads movement. Why can't we have such a club? Let us hear from the automobile owners. Heppner. the Hub City. On to Lexington Saturday. TO" BE I'BEPARKD. All people save those who seem to want to be blind, can see how much the United States needs a merchant marine. Another fact which the great war across the sea emphasizes, is that a country like ours should be able to produce every needed thing for both war and peace. It should have gun and ammunition works suf ficient to meet any emergency. It should have inland depots with rail road connections so that it could dis patch help to any needed point cover ing a thousand miles of coast, as for instance a point like Fort Douglas, from which a force or supplies could be forwarded direct to Seattle, Port land, San Francisco or San Diego direct. It should have shipyards, to turn out submarines, located for in land, in such places as Albany, N. Y., or Memphis, Tenn. It should have inland manufactures for aeroplanes and other aircraft. It should have stud stables at different inland points to Insure any needed supply of caval ry and artillery horses and ambu lance and team mules. The nation, too, should be just as well supplied to produce all that Is needed in time of peace. We raise wheat and corn and cot ton to sell abroad. We should make all the sugar needed; all the leather needed. We should have great chemical plants and offer rewards for every new and important discovery. In the depots great supplies of clothing and metals should be kept on hand, and facilities to supply more rapidly, all in order. A nation and a people are not great until the nennle can supply every needed thing. Goodwin's Weekly.

Vaughn, of the firm of Vau ghn & Sons, made a trip to Lexington Monday and returned with one of the new Bull tractors, of which they re cently received a car load and deliv ered several at Lexington.

Ayers, of Parkers Mill, was in lone one day this week shaking hands with friends and acquaintan ces. (Al must be running for office. Ed.) Leonard Carlson and his sister Manda were in lone Thursday last getting some of the good eats to keep. body and soul together during tlie busy spring season. C. E. Carlson was in lone about the middle of the last week, going up to Heppner to attend the. good roads meet. C. E. brought in 120 dozen cackle berries and took out a bundle of groceries, also a load of cement. We did not learn very much con cerning the ball game played at Heppner last Saturday. The lone boys did not come Home crowing so we took it for granted that they met their Waterloo. Bill Palniateer says that if Provi dence keeps sending us such hail storms as we had last week, that he will have to get him a pair of ear flaps as the hail comes down so fast that it Is impossible for him to dodge it and every time he flops an ear a hail stone hits It carwallop. The bunch that went to Hermlston last week returned home all O K but we do not care to state the number of fish caught as it would take up too much valuable space. We might state that Larry, the genial Irish lad, who accompanied the merry bunch, took the cup for catching the biggest fish. He landed one that tipped the rule at 18 inches: C. E. Shaver received a brand new gasoline well drill from Spokane last Tuesday evening. The machine ar rived in good shape and the boys had it off the car and on the street very shortly after the arrival of tlie train. It is what you would call a traction drill and we expect Shorty will be very busy ere long boring for the precious fluid we call water. gave a fine supper in the basement of the church Thursday evening last. The good cooking of these ladies is too well known to call for comment here. There were several April fool pranks played during the meal and every one had an excellent time. Little Doc, our genial pill twister, left for parts unknown on last Wed nesday's train. We think Little Doc has some attraction elsewhere but as yet we are in the dark. However, a bad penny always returns so we will look for his early arrival on the home run. Missionary Society Meets. The regular meeting of Woman's Missionary Society of the Christian church was held Tuesday afternoon at the spacious home of R. W. Turn er. Mrs. Turner proved to be a de lightful hostess, and an interesting program was rendered by Mrs. Cora Crawford's division of the society. The topic for discussion was Africa. Mrs. Anna Keithly led the meeting. Those taking part on the program were Mrs. T. E. Chidsey, Mrs. T. J.. Humphreys, Mrs. E. J. Currln, Miss Virginia Crawford and Rev. T. S. Handsaker. Mrs. Handsaker gave also an interesting account of her trip among some of the Eastern Oregon churches, in the capacity of organ izer for the Christian Woman's Board of Missions. She visited Hermlston, Pendleton, Milton, Athena, La Grande, Baker, Elgin and Enterprise. Her work was received enthusiastic ally in all these pfaces. Tlie mem bership of the local society is now 40. A campaign is now on to reach 50 by the May meeting. This will put the Heppner society at the head as the largest in Eastern Oregon and third in point of membership in the state. The meeting Tuesday, which was largely attended, was very en thusiastic and four new members were received. Faster Sing a Success. The Easter cantata, "Life's Morn ing," presented by the Sunday School children of the Christian church on Sunday evening, proved a big success, all those taking part acquitting them selves with credit. Much of the credit for the success of tlie cantata is due to Mrs. O. G. Crawford, who had in charge the training of the children. About thirty friends called to surprise Mrs. T. S. Handsaker at her home Wednesday' afternoon, the affair being in honor of her birthday. Mrs. R. W. Turner was present and the two ladies observed the occasion together, it also being Mrs. Turner's birthday.

Mrs. Handsaker was presented with a meat roaster as a remem brance of the day and Mrs. Turner was also presented with several tok ens expressing the well wishes of her friends.
