He was considerably en couraged by the prospects here for organizing a band. We would en courage those Interested in such a move to get in touch with Mr. Red ifer when he returns to town, and help to push this proposition along. Heppner needs such an organization and we can just as well have it. Will Spencer had a slight collis ion with a Ford while rounding a turn In the road near the Walt Bray place on his way to the mountains Thursday last. Spencer was driving his Overland and neither driver saw the other approaching until they were so near that the collision was un avoidable. The Ford was being driv en by a boy and we understand It was a Lexington machine. No serious damage was done either machine but it was just a fortunate piece of luck that serious Injury was avoided. D. S. Barlow and wife were Hepp ner visitors Saturday from their Eight Mile farm.
