That calls for trav eling "2 feet for one bucket of water. The homes have no sink and the water has to be carried out again, perhaps about as far. The practice may make good walkers of the women but it also boosts the high price of shoes. Water Master Busy But No Water At Baker Loy M.

"Pioneer" Hotel Was Once Run by Mr. and Mrs. John W. Depew of Klamath Falls ' The old Pioneer hotel, which, true I to its name, was one of the pioneer I hotels of Heppner, was at one time ' during its career, conducted by Mr i and Mrs. John W. Depew.

Mrs. i Lee Matlock, formerly of Heppner, ; is a sister of Mrs. Depew. The Depew family left here in ' 1902 and since going to Klamath Falls they have acquired a large al-; falfa ranch.
