Senator Charles Hall of Marshfield. who has long been mentioned as one of the strongest prospective candi dates for Governor, has announced definitely that he will enter the guber natorial race. This announcement has been expected by his friends for some time, as strong pressure has been brought to bear upon the Coos and Curry Senator since his name was first mentioned as a prospective can didate. He was born on a farm' in Jefferson County. Pennsylvania, and came to j Oregon in 1901. Shortly thereafter he j beian his business career as a clerK again. They will be more likely to if you will follow them down and boost a little for Heppner High. We see that the old "cry" for an nual snaps has begun to appear on the board again. Last year this call ac'orned the board for weeks and we suppose that it will do the same this vear. Mv!

It has been acknow- Hved until 1914. In Hood River his ... . -d h ,0 some ability for organization asserted it- j ? . . . . self. During the eight years he spent in that town, he was one of the build ers of the telephone system there, the Oregon-Washington Telephone Com pany, and built the Central Building, Oregon Hotel and the Hall Building, and owned and planted a number of orchards in the Hood River Valley. He also served as Director and President of the Hood River Commercial Club. His activities were transferred to Coos Bay in 1914 and immediately thereafter a number of new organiza tions in that district came into being. He organized the Coos and Carry Telephone Company of which he is President today; organized the Bank of Southwestern Oregon in 1917 and was President of that institution until 1921. Outside of his business activities in Marehfitld. he soon became one of the prominent citizens of that district. He was one of the original promoters of the State Highway program. He was elected Senator from the Eighth Sena torial District comprising Coos and Curry counties in 1920. Senator Hall soon became one of the leaders in state-wide politics as a fearless exponent of the highway pro gram. As a Legislator he played a prominent part in all Important legis lation during both sessions In 1921. He risked censure from the exponents of the 1925 Exposition Bill when he refused to listen to any proposed in roadB into the road funds for the pur pose of financing the Fair. Hall's un deriating course in this latter action brought forth the highest praise from all parts of the State. Since his debut into state-wide poli tics, the leadership in various non political movements has gravitated naturally to him. He is a member of the Oregon Land Settlement Commis sion and served for three years as President of the Oregon Stat Cham ber of Commerce and is now a director of that organization. Friends of Senator Hall proclaim him as a natural leader, and point with pride to h,s record of achievements in nubile and private life. Others con cede that his Judgment is sound and admit that no outside pressure or log rolling can swerve him from any pro rram or movement to which he has dedicated himiself. Mr. Hall was married In 1906 In Portland to Ann Eagllsh. They have three children, two boys thirteen and seven, one girl nine. PaU AvertUMsra, "dressing up.

The domestic science class served a Washington's birthday luncheon to the teachers last Tuesday noon. Small red paper hatchets were used 1 a? place cards, ine menu was sai mon loaf, potato croquette, tomato salad, cake and sherbert. The total number of pupils serv ed by the domestic science class dur ing last week was one hundred ana lghty. This was a decrease of about thirty from the week before. Last Tuesday, rebruary ii, tne long delayed musical-dramatic pro gram was given under the auspices cf the Patron-Teachers' association in the high school auditorium. The P. T. A., the high school and the grades were all represented and the program was splendidly given. The main feature of the evening was a farce, "The Burglar," and we think it can be said that it was enjoyed by evervone from the smallest boy to the most sophisticated business man in the audience. The musical num bers were all very good, especially the piano solo by Velma Case. A fairy dance by uorotny Hill aaaea just the right touch of artistry. As a whole the entertainment was very much a success. About seventy-five dollars was taken in and this will be added to the P. T. A. social fund. doing business in Cecil vicinity dur ing the week. Misses Gertie and Hazel Ptetyjohn of Morgan were calling on their friends in Cecil on Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. George Hardesty of Morgan visited with Mr. and Mrs. H. J. Streeter on Wednesday at Ce cil.

John Holton of Heppner arrived at The Last Camp on Wednesday and will take up his duties as night herd er at the Dovecote for Minor and Krebs. George Perry of Ewing was a busy man during the week bringing a shearing plant from Hynd Brot. ranch in Sand Hollow to Butterby Flats near Cecil, Our sympathies are extended to W. G.

Messrs. Henry Krebs, Herb Hynd, W. Lowe and Geo. H. Wilson ac companied by Misses A. C. Hynd, and A. C. Lowe, all of Cecil vicinity, took in the big dance at Morgan on Saturday night. Everyone reported having a fine time. We presume Bob Thompson, lead-' ing sheepman of Morrow county, must have gone out of the business at least for a few days and joined the plumber's union..

Finally the court holds that, save as to demands that are not legitimate claims against the district as indica ted, there is no sufficient ground to enjoin the collection of the district tax. This memorandum opinion does not constitute the final findings and decree in this cause, but is a sum mary of what the final decision of the court will be. Tom Johnson is preparing to put up a neat little bungalow on his lot on Court street adjoining the J.G. Thomson place. He will begin build ing right away.

In the old bible times, when prophets did not make predictions that just exactly suit the people, you know what hap pened, and there is plenty or stones lying hereabouts. We call upon these fellows to dish us up sometning a little more pleasant, or suffer the consequences. W. G. Moore, local sawmill man, is rejoicing over the improvement of his line of business. He states that during the past year and more he has not been able to dispose of any of the output of his mill on Willow creek to outside parties, but that now he has orders for all that he can place on board the cars at Heppner.
