The committee on publicity has already started its work of outlining plans and methods for preceedure. It is planned by the members ot the club to arrange a schedule of dates on which the vari ous neighboring towns will be visited and a strong effort will be made to establish a more neighborly feeling between this and towns tributary. The first town which will receive the consideration of the junketeers will In all probability be Irrlgon. This city on the North has been sadly neg lected In the past, is the opinion of all club members and Heppner people have not become as well acquainted with the northerners as they should. The committee Is working on a plan whereby a large number will go to Irrigon by auto on the 4th of July. Other towns that will be visited dur ing the summer are : Hardman, Monument, Ritter, lone, and Lexing ton. The club has taken up the proposi tion of parking on the lower end of Gale street near the bridge and the streets and roads committee have been given the authority to act with the city council. It is the idea of the Club that this unsightly section of the town can be beautified at a small cost. . The committee having this in charge consists of: N. E. Wlnnard, Albert Bowker and Wm. Haylor. The Club will also ask the city council to Improve the crossing on Main street by making fills. The crossings are very abrupt and do great damage to automobile springs as well as causing inconvenience to all travelers. One man made a trip from Portland to Heppner by auto without mishap and then broke a spring while going over one of our crossings. President Phelps has written to Congressman Stnnott, again urj,in him to do all in his power in getting the postoffice department to re-adver tise for bids on the Hardman-Monu-ment mail route. After a vote of thanks was extend ed to the entertainment committee for their sucesslul work during thv recent Farmers' picnic, the meetins adjourned. 6 lots 40x90; 1 lot 50x110; 1 S room dwelling, woodshed and other outbuildings: 1 5-room dwelling, woodshed and other outbuilding; 1 barn, used for livery stable, 64x81!
