Norton Winnard, manager of the Y. M. C. A. drive in the high school announces that the quota of the high school and surrounding districts has been a little better than filled. It was managed so fhat the quota woulu just be raised, because It ft as not deemed wise to raise so very much j more as there will probably be many I calls for donations to these great' works of humanity in the future. The high school appreciates very much the support which was given the football game last Saturday, and believe that everyone who attended the game, felt well repaid for the small amount paid for admission. The students expect to have more games at Heppner in the future and believe that the people of Heppner will not be backward in giving the same whole hearted support to these that they did before.

Rumor has of late been connecting the name of Mr. Stanfield with the of fice of Governor, and we had been looking for the announcement almost any day that he had entered the race tor nomination to this office. He had also been mentioned by his friends as possible timber for the senatorial race, and now we are able to an nounce, officially, that he has entered the race for the republican nomina tion to the United States Senate. We shall not have any hesitanoy'ln supporting Mr. Stanfield for this po sition. He is eminently fitted for the place, and being an Eastern Oregon product, he is entitled to unanimous support from his party at the primar ies, and aKo the general election. In the Red Cross drive for funds for war work. Morrow county sub scribed $15,629.73. Of this amount $4589.25 was pledges, payable in monthly installments, usually. In many cases, however, terms of pay ment were made to suit the conve nience of the subscriber and a great many made their pledges payable Dec . 1, 1917 and Jan. 1, 1918.

Mr. Kilkenny is en-j titled to be given the place he occur pies among the Morrow county Irish men. He is somewhat of an orator, ' too. Father O'Rourke, always enter taining in his addresses, was even more so on this occasion, and his ad dress rung with patriotism from be ginning to end. He especially laud ed the Irish people for the way they had responded to the call to defend their adopted countries, and he can see crowing out of this nresent great tnr (5 the world and Independence for the Irish people as well, an end devoutly hoped for by all right thinking peo ple.
