PAGE TWO HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, FEB. 4, 1926. BOARDMAN MRS. A. T. HEREIM, Correspondent A group of the East End women entertained at a pleasant priy on Wednesday afternoon of last week at the Mrs. Lee Mead home. About SO ladies were in attendance. Mrs. L. C. Cooney was the inspiration of the party, having recently joined the ral.ks of motherhooi! via tha adaption route. Since Miss Mary Msxine r.r rived fullly clothed tni with all t'ne accoutrements of babyhood the us ual stork shower was omitted and in stead a beautiful Esmond blanket was presented to Mis. Cooney by i'.ie ladies present. A clever rhyme writ ten by Mrs. Mead was read as the blanket was given to Mrs. Cooney who was much surprised, having had no idea that the party was given for her. The time was spent in making newspaper articles and some amazing results were obtained. Mrs. Hum phrey received first prize for the best free hand cutting of a baby and Mrs. Lahmondicr and Mrs. Frank Cramer had the best looking newspaper chess made within a stated length of time. Refreshments were served by the hos' esses, who were Mesdames Mead, King, C. S. Calkins, Ray Brown end A. T. Hereim. When the epidemic had apparently subsided and it was thought there were no new cases of smallpox, three more fell victims to the scourge and school was closed and a ban placed on all public gatherings last Friday, by the health officer. Ono of the Root boys, Albert Boardman and Ir ma Broyles are the unfortunates. Most of the teachers returned to their homes, Mrs. Wilson going to Walla Walla, Miss Silver to Astoria and Miss Beougher to Albtny. It is hop ed that no more cases will develop. Warner's motored to Pendleton twice last week, going up to see a physician about Mr. Warner who has been ill with Brights disease. On Wednesday evening an interest ing meeting was held at the church when about 25 men of the project were seated around the table and par took of a delicious dinner of which chicken and noodles was the piece d'resistance with salads, pie and cof fee to help fill in. Rev. D. A. Thomp son of Portland was the speaker of the evening and ho based his talk on the home, school, church and obe dience to the laws as the four pillars of life. Rev. Swogger was the toast master and toasts were responded to by several of Boardman's prominent men. Such occasions make for better harmony in the community and the men present rather enjoyed the nov elty of a stray dinner as there are few of such affairs given here. Only enough women were present to serve the dinner. These were Mesdames Messenger, Johnson, Flickinger, Faler, Smith, Blayden and Klitz. The Ladies Aid play. "Her Son's Sweetheart," which was scheduled for Saturday night had to be indefinitely postponed because of smallpox. John Hango of Hood Rivor is vis iting at the Chas. Hango home. Dewey Smith is convalescing after a serious operation for appendicitis in Portland. He and Mrs. Smith have been down there since about the first of the year. Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Davis and R. S. Smith and wife attended the Ma sonic reception at Hermiston last Wednesday. Mrs. A. A. AgVe who has been suffering for some time with ulcer ated teeth and also a gathering in the head, went to Hermiston Monday for treatment. Mrs. Agee came in from the wheat ranch Sunday. Wilma Myers suffered a sprained ankle recently. It is painful but not serious. . Ivy Olson threw her ankle out of joint last week when her foot turned as she stepped off the bus as she reached home from school. It was extremely painful but she is recov ering nicely.

The Wood family were released from quarantine Sunday. All four members of the far.iily had the small pox. ne do not know what the doctors of the presort day think of cream of tartar as a means of prevention of smallpox, but a number of peo ple here have been tuing it. Accord ing to the directions one should dis solve 1 oi. of cream of tartar in boil ing water and drink it at frequent intervals when cold. At least it would do no harm to try. Vaccination is of course the safest and surest meth od of preventing and eventually elim inating the disease. Of interest to local people was the meeting hold last week at Pendleton of the Pendleton Presbytery. Steps toward the incorporation of the Pres bytery were taken at this time. Dr. Bruce of Pendleton, Rev. Van Winkle of Pilot Rock, Rev, Swogger of Uma tilla and Elder Fletcher of Pilot Rock were appointed to see about the in corporation. The pulpit at Stanfield was declared vacant, Rev. Schnable having been transferred to Illinois. Rev. Cornelison - who has visited Boardman and is known to a great many here 'was granted t permission to go elsewhere. He has been elected clerk of the Presbytery and Rev. Wil bur was chosen to succeed him. The Irrigon church no longer belongs to this Presbytery and the manse was ordered sold and the money derived will be us d for the building of a parsonage at Umatilla. The basketball paraphernalia has been moved from the Murchie build ing as the student body felt they could no longer afford to pay the rent since by the time the three weeks- quarantine was over the bas ketball season would be closed. , LEXINGTON N.
