injuries he received one day last
week when thrown out of his rig.
He was preparing to go on a little
trip over into Umatilla county with
a bunch of mules, and had hitched
up a span of young mules to the hack
and climbed in to drive them around.
They became frightened and started
to run, going under a telephone wire
that was hanging low, which struck
Mr. Hendrix and threw him out on a
pile of rocks. He received three
broken ribs, a badly cut head and
other injuries of a minor nature, the
team continuing on until the rig was
demolished. Mr. Hendrix had his
injuries patched up and has been
confined to his bed since, his recov
ery being rather slow.

Friday, returning home Sunday.
Grain and fruit crops over that way
are coming along fine but it is not
expected that the yield will be so
abundant as last season. That coun
try is mighty pretty to look upon just
now. Coming through the north end
of Morrow county it was noted that
the crops are maturing well and look
fine, promising good yields. By com
parison, our own county does not
look so bad this season.
Heppner people in the city this
week included J. G. Doherty, Mar

School Meeting Monday-
Mrs. Huston Elected Director
At the annual school meeting held
Monday afternoon, Mrs. E. R. Hus
ton was chosen director to serve for
a period of three years and Vawter
Crawford was re-elected clerk.
As is usual in Heppner, but little
interest was manifested in the meet
ing and very few attended. W. G.
McCarty, chairman of the board for
the past year was present and pre
sided and after hearing the minutes
of the last annual meeting and the
reading of the report of the clerk,
nominations for director were declar
ed in order. W. G. McCarty, Mrs.
E. R. Huston and Mrs. T. J. Hum
phreys were placed in nomination,
the choice going to Mrs. Huston al
most unanimously. Mr. McCarty
had served on the board for the past
six years and did not desire to be
re-elected, feeling that he had per
formed his full duty to the patrons
of the school district in this partic
ular. There was no opposition to
Crawford for clerk.
All the Chautauqua guarantors,
committees, and others interested
are requested to meet at the big tent,
Friday evening, at 7:30. This is a
most important meeting. Be sure
to be there. Livingstone, Chairman.

Very Fine Strawberries Are
Grown Down Around Cecil
Mrs. Jennie Lowe of Cecil kindly
remembered this office with some
very fine strawberries one day the
past week, sending us a sample from
her supply that she was canning and
preserving, and informing us that
they were grown on Willow creek
and wanted us to see what was being
produced in this line right at our
door. We are frank to say that for
color, size and flavor they cannot
be excelled. The berries were of
the "Improved Oregon" variety and
raised by Geo. Hennksen on Straw
berry ranch near Cecil. Mr. Hen
riksen has been able this year to turn
off quite a quantity of these berries
for canning and preserving and we
hope that he will expand his business
to such a point that he may be able
to supply the principal part of the
trade up and down Willow creek in
future seasons. No better berries are
produced in any of the famed straw'
berry sections of the Northwest than
these and it would be a fine thing to
have all the money going out from
points on the Heppner branch for
this fruit every year remain here.
We thank you, Mrs. Lowe, for this
fine treat and congratulate you on
being a consistent booster for Cecil
and its products.

SATURDAY, JULY 1ST
That time honored yet magical
phrase, "are you going to the show?"
is the query most frequently heard
these days upon every hand both in
Heppner and for miles out into the
surrounding country. The world
famed Howe's Great London Shows
are responsible for the question, ar
rangements having been completed
for them to exhibit Saturday after
noon and evening, July 1, in Hepp
ner.
The small boy and girl are corres
pondingly happy and it goes without
saying that their elders have the day
marked on the calendar, too. Fresh
from triumphs abroad, the Howe's
Great London Circus has greatly aug
mented their shows in every depart
ment. This season their spread of
canvas covers an area of about nine
acres and when erected the big tent
alone affords comfortable accomoda
tions for 12,000 persons. Overcap
ping the three big rings, three elevat
ed stages and vast hippodrome track
is a veritable maze of trapeze rig
gings, bars, rings ropes and appar
atus upon which dauntless queens
and kings of the air twice defy death
in entertaining the thousands of pa
trons. Over 300 men, women, child
ren and educated animals are em
ployed in the presentation of the as
tounding program. From the first to
the last number, act follows act in
rapid succession and with such pre
cision and skill as can only be found
in Howe's Great London Shows.
Throughout me parformance as
many as fifteen separate features are
simultaneously presented on the
ground or in the air and one is kept
right busy in watching the myriad of
wonders. An important department,
free to all who attend the big show,
is the triple menagerie which is un
questionably the largest and most
complete traveling zoo known. The
mammoth tent in which this is exhi
bited is filled with rare and costly
specimens of animal life from all
quarters of the globe, captured and
shipped direct to these shows by the
Howe's Great London Shows own
special agent. A visit to the display
will prove of far more interest and
educational value than a tour of the
best known zoological garden in this
country or Europe.
A little birthday party was tender
ed Anabel Turner on Monday after:
noon by her mother, Mrs. F. W. Tur
ner, the occasion being in honor of
her 6th birthday and a few of her
little girl friends were present and
enjoyed a delightful time. Anabel
received many nice remembrances,
chief among which was a canary
given her by June Anderson, little
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gay M.
Anderson, whose birthday occurred
on the same date, and Anabel is very
proud of this gift.
John Byland was down from
Hardman yesterday, his first visit to
Heppner in six years. Things have
moved ahead some in this old town
since he was here last.

Heppner Post No. 87, American
Legion, was visited by a "wrecking
crew" from The Dalles on Friday
evening and about 24 members of
the Heppner and lone posts received
their induction as charter members
of Voiture Locale No. 259 of the
society known to ex-service men in
France as the "40 and 8." The del
egation from The Dalles was head
ed by Pat Foley and J. T. Henry,
who had with them a husky bunch of
ten other buddies, armed with all the
authority, ammunition, accouter
ments and instruments of torture
necessary, as well as abundant abil
ity to deal out the proper amount
of misery and torture to the initiates,
and it is reported by those going in
that they received every ounce that
was coming to mem, and then some.
In fact, we are informed that a large
number more who expect to join the
"40 and 8" are just about to back
up, feeling that the "zero hour" is
just about a little too much for their
moral courage; they would just a
little rather prefer going up against
the "bursts and di'ds" as 'ey once
did on the front in France than to
face these more modern "enemies."
However, there is material left for
the new locale to work on and anoth
er big time is expected to come off
soon.
