A most exciting game of baseball was played. We, are unable to say who won. "Flying Dutchman, and Dog and Mouse were played until everyone got hun gry. A hre was built and about an hour was passed in roasting "wein ies" and boiling coffee which were exceedingly good when done. The main refreshments were "weinies" and pickles, and more "weinies" and pickles. The evening was then spent in playing ball and doing such marvel ous stunts as walking across a man whose feet were on one bank of a deep chasm and his head on the other. The picnic broke up about dark and every junior voted for another picnic on the next Friday. 'Martha By-the-Day" the Next H. S. Attraction. "Martha By-the-Day" is an optim istic comedy in three acts, by Julie M. Lippmann. It first came out in serial form in one of the magazines and the author later adapted it to the stage. The whole story revolves about Martha, who mothers her own and several other families. She works by the day scrubbing and washing and in this way gets ac quainted with many wealthy and bet ter educated people. She helps straighten out all the difficulties of the several characters and is kept some occupied, but you will see and hear it all next month at the school house. Little girls with rolled socks, ging ham dresses and curls or braids and ittle boys in knee pants, or over alls, and rolled socks made up the freshman class on last Monday, April 24.

Progressive rook was the entertainment for the evening. After everyone decided that he was the rook shark light refreshments, consisting of ice cream and wafers were served. The students are not the only ones to enjoy good times. The faculty also enjoy them, so they went on a picnic after school last Thursday af ternoon. Many exciting experiences have been rumored about the picnic. One of these reports, which the stu dents overheard, was what a fine cook Mr. Heard, with his three as sistants, makes. "Shure an' you would miss a lot" if you did not see and hear Rose Hirl as "Ma" in "Martha By-the-Day." Last Monday afternoon Mr. Woods of the national forest reserve ad dressed the high school on the causes and prevention of forest fires.

Mr. Woods addressed the grades in the morning and his instructive talks were much enjoyed by all. $144.41 is the total sum of money raised by the Heppner grades and high school for the benefit of the Near East Relief. Come to "Martha By-the-Day" and find out about the "lemon-eye" and what it is. Martha says Flicker is what you call a reversible dog looks just as good one way as another.

Martha, "That's what I'll give you, if vou don't watch out." It is not an uncommon siht, now, to see two Latin Nine students in dustriously pondering over Latin dic tionaries. The reason ws found out, was that the class had been divided into couples to translate "Robinson Crusoe" from Latin into English. According to a majority of the class it takes real "digging" to make "sense" out of the jumble of words. The boys have organized an in dependent baseball team and have scheduled a game with the lone high school team to be played here Sat urday.

Millions In California Gold For Foresiglted Investors Since the days of '49 California haa produced hundreds of mil lions in gold, and for twenty years past its average yearly prduction has been about 123,000,000. It easily leads all other states in gold out put Most anybody can have it by digging for It in the right place and In the right way. Fifty business men and citizens of Richmond, California, all of the highest standing in the community, have purchased a gold mine at Alleghany, in Sierra County, California, which now promises to soon become a wonderous producer of the yellow metal that all the world wants and they offer unit Interests In that mine at $100 each, payable In J25 installments. Deeds to the interest are Issued when payment is completed, upon a basis of a valuation of $125.00 for the whole. Adjoining this mine on the same 20-foot ledge of ore Is the Kate Hardy mine, now one of the famous rich gold mines of California, and whatever the Hardy has. this mine, the Contact, must atlso have, the only difference being that one Is equipped and developed and the other Is not, but soon will be. Men are at work now on the Contact, opening up the bodies of gold ore, and are taking out good milling values already. Ore from the Hardy runs as high as 120,000 to the ton, and apparently unlimited Quantities. On the other side of the Contact, on the same ledge, is the Gold King mine, Also very rich. Thus the Contact is between two splendid gold mines of jtroven riches. To raise a J25.000 equipment and development fund these inter ests are offered. Half of this fund has already been raised and upon completion no more sales will be made or offered. Our references are any business man, newspaper or bank in Rich mond, California.

If it were possible to make a better oil than ZEROLENE this company would make it The President of the Standard Oil Company California), author of the statement quoted above, is right in believing that Zerolene is the best motor oil made. The lubrication engineers of this company have proved it repeatedly, by means of thousands of dynamometer and road tests of Zerolene and competing oils. The reasons for Zerolene's superiority are: First, that the , Standard Oil Company (California) possesses resources of crude oil and of manufacturing equipment and personnel that are unsurpassed in the entire petroleum industry. Sec ond, that the engineers and chemists of this company have, from the beginning, been given carte blanche to make full use of these exceptional resources, and to spend all the time and money needed to develop a lubricant ideally suited to the needs of the modern internal combustion engine. At the President's request, we are undertaking to tell the motorists of the Pacific Coast the story of Zerolene. We shall do this by means of a series of signed statements in the public press. These statements will set forth in plain lan-1 guage the requirements of an efficient motor lubricant, and the detailed reasons why Zerolene meets these require ' ments-perfectly.
