HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, Aug. 19, 1926.
Campbell's Band of Port
land Secured and Fine
Program Promised.
IMPROVEMENT MADE
Water Piped to New Barns; Reserved
Section Made In New Grandstand;
Association to be Incorporated.
That there will be good music as a
leding feature of Heppner's Rodeo
this fall is guaranteed by the fact
that the association has secured the
services of Percy A. Campbell's Amer
ican band of Portland. Mr. Campbell
will be remembered by Heppner and
Morrow county folks as leader of the
band here on two former occasions
when the county fair was flourishing,
and there will be no question of the
quality and quantity of music that
vill be supplied during the forthcom
ing Rodeo. With Mr. Campbell's or
ganization will be Justine Gilbert,
soprano soloist, who will be a lead
ing feature on the program. The
band consists of 12 pieces, all artists,
and they will come prepared to fur
nish music on the streets, at the show
grounds and for the dances which will
be given each evening during the Ro
deo at the fair pavilion.
Improvements have been going on
at Rodeo grounds during the past
few weeks. The finishing of the
grand stand early in the season has
proved a fine thing, and then a new
barn for caring for the stock is now
ready. To furnish water to the stock,
a pipe line has been run from the
fountain at the roadside, taking the
waste water or run-off across the
arena to the stables, where large wa
tering troughs receive it. This will
help greatly in caring for the stock
during the show and eliminate the
water hauling that has hertofore pre
vailed. President McNamer had
charge of this work and the cost of
installation has been practically nil,
but the results wil be worth much.
A reserved seat section is being pre
pared at the grand stand, approxi
n atey 300 seats being backed. Re
served seat sale will be put on soon
and seats sold for all three days, only.
The association filed papers of in
corporation this week under the name
of Heppner Rodeo, and from now on
i.ill do business under that name. C.
W. McNamer, L. V, Gentry and Chas.
Latourell were the incorporators and
will remain as directors until a new
board is chosen next season at the
lime Bet for holding the annual meet
ing. From present indications, the com
ing Rodeo will be the best yet, and
the additional accomodations at the
grounds places the association in po
sition for handling the visitors bet
ter than ever before.
WHAT CHURCH SHALL I .JOIN?
This is often the puzzled query of
the one who knows that the Christian
life is the most worthy. There is a
diversified and often a competitive
effort looking toward affiliation with
different curches. Is there any safe
course to pursue? Is there any way
that promises perfect satisfaction?
This will be the discussion at the
evening service at the Church of
Christ.
The morning worship hour will be
featured by the second discussion of
the book of James.
Bible school at ten o'clock and do
not forget that the Turtles stole a
march on the Hares last Sunday.
Christian Endeavor at 7 o'clock.
Do not forget that there is to be a
specinl program of music before the
evening sermon.

Meets Brother After
Separation of 33 Years
Brother and sister were united af
ter a separation of 83 years" during
the past week, when Stephen Conlee,
business man of Fort Dodge, Iowa,
greeted his sister, Mrs. Addie Conlee
Einns, of 5 East Twenty-fourth street
North, states the Oregonian.
Mrs. Binns came to Oregon in 1893
and has been a resident of the state
ever since. She went first to eastern
Oregon, where she taught school for
several years, settled in Heppner,
lived there until 1921, then moved to
Corvallis, and finally arrived in Port
land two years ago. She bad never
returned to her home town, Fort
Dodge.
Mr. Conlee, on the other hand, nev
er left Fort Dodge for the west until
last week. He is making a thrip
through the west with his wife and
plans to stay about a month in var
ious points along the coast.
The water situation at Heppner is
greatly improved as a result of the
copious rains of the week. The sched
ule for irrigation has been put back
to about what it was before the
drought set in, and there will now be
no fear of a plentiful supply to the
end of the season. Joy reineth again
ii. the breasts of the water consumers,
and the irrigation of lawns and gar
dens proceeds full blast, even though
mother nature Is pouring out her
blessings to such an extent that it
would seem there could be no need of
asking for more. It is not a question
of "making hay while the sun shines"
but rather a disposition to make the
liiwns grow while the rains come
down, and the soaking they get now
will revive their appearance wonder
fully. Music of the lawn mower
should be heard again in the land.
The rock crusher to be used in pre
paring the surfacing for the Hard-man-Spray
road, was taken out Wed
nesday by the contractors, as well as
two heavy trucks that will be used
n spreading the road covering when
the grading is completed. The work
ct setting up the crusher will pro
ceed at once, we are informed, and as
soon as it is in running order the
rock will be prepared. The contract
on this piece of road work calls for
a completed job, and it should not be
many months before the road is open
to traffic.
Mr. and Mrs. F. E. Bloom and
daughter, Miss Pauline, and Miss
Betty Stuart of Albany arrived at
Heppner on Sunday evening and spent
several days visiting at the home of
Mr. and Mrs. E. R. Huston. Mrs.
Bloom and Mrs. Huston are sisters.
Leaving Heppner on Wednesday they
will return home after taking in Bend,
Klamath Falls and other points and a
short stay at Belknap Springs'on the
McKenzie highway.
Wm. Hendrix of Rca creek is ser
iously ill and is being cared for at
Morrow General hospital in this city,
where he was taken Tuesday. Dr.
Johnston reports it will be necessary
for him to undergo a major operation
in a few days, as soon as conditions
permit. Mr. Hendrix has been suf
fering for the past year or so from
serious complications, and it is hoped
that an operation will bring much
needed relief.
The supper announced for Wednes
day evening of this week at the Meth
odist Community church, was post
poned until this evening, and it will
come off as a feature of the last quar
terly meeting of this conference year
i.l the church where it is expected the
members and friends will enjoy a
splendid time, and the business of
the meeting can be carried out as well
with Superintendent Hisey in charge.
Rev. Henry Young went to Heppner
Monday to see his son who was in
jured recently while employed on
highway work in Morrow county. He
did not hear of the injury until sev
eral days had elapsed and did not
know the extent of the hurts until he
made the trip. He found that his son
was only slightly Injured and had al
ready left the hospital when he ar
rived. Hermiston Herald.
Departing Tuesday morning for Jo
seph and the Wallowa Lake Wonder
land, were Raymond Ferguson and
wife, Jasper Crawford and the Misses
Margaret and Mary Crawford, who
will spend some ten days in making
a trip into the lake basin and climb
ing some of the numerous peaks. They
went prepared to hike and will join
a party of several others going out
from Joseph.
Professor and Mrs. Jas. M. Burgess
arrived at Heppner Tuesday and are
now domiciled In the residence of
Mrs. Lillian Cochran. Mr. Burgess
will be busy the next week or two
getting ready for the opening of
school. He spent the most of the
summer at Palo Alto, California, in
special work in the Bummer school of
Stanford university.
Mrs. Chris Brown and son Vernon
arrived home on Wednesday from Hot
Lake where the boy had been for sev
eral weeks receiving treatment for
injuries received when he was thrown
from a horse. Roy Johnson and wife
drove to La Grande and brought them
home. Vernon is getting along all
right and able to be about,
Walter Moore, cashier of First Na
tional bank, and John Kelly made a
trip into the Yakima country on Fri
day, returning Sunday. Mr. Moore
reports very prosperous conditions in
the Yakima valley, where all kinds of
crops are very abundant this season,
Mrs, Earl Gordon was operated on
Wednesday at Morrow General hospl
tal by Dr. Johnston for the removal
of tonsils and adenoids.
HEAVY RAINFALL
VISITS ALL PARTS
OF THIS COUNTY
Long Drought Broken by Abund
ant Downpour; Harvest Crews
Laid Off; Benefits Great.
An inch and one-eighth of rainfall
was reported on Wednesday by Frank
Gilliam, local weather man, and so
far as this particular locality is con
cerned, the drought is broken, as sev
eral good showers followed the gen
eral downpour whick , began early
Tuesday morning with sufficient rain
fall that all harvest crews were laid
off. Tuesday night the rain came in
abundance and increased on Wednes
day to proportions of cloudbursts at
times, and mother earth has received
a thorough soaking.
From all we can gather at time of
going to press, the rain was general
all over the county, and especially
heavy in the mountains, where it has
resulted in eliminating all fire haz
ard, and will be the means of renew
ing the water supply and range condi
tions. Heppner had been threatened
with a serious water shortage and re
strictions on irrigation had reached
the state where entire prohibition
was threatened in order that the sup
ply for domestic purposes might be
guaranteed. This is all over now, and
the water department has, for a short
time at least, restored the regular
order and hopes that there will not be
any need of further restrictions this
season.
Harvest crews have laid off for a
time, until the wet spell is over. But j
little damage to ripened grain yet un
cut or in the stack is expected, and
the great benefit to summerfallow in
starting the weeds will more than re
pay any damage to the present wheat
crop. In fact, the greatea portion of
the grain has been put in the sack and
a heavy percentage is in the ware
house where it is out of reach of the
rain. Weeds will now come and the
summerfallow ground can be put in
excellent shape for the seeding of
fall grain that should have a splendid
start before winter weather sets in.
It was a million dollar rain, or at
least it would have been such had it
hit us the last of May or first of June.
Miss Ruth Tash of Arlington and
Miss Willetta Barratt of Portland
are guests at the home of the .Misses
Devin in Heppner this week. Miss
Barratt will also visit at the home

Burgass, director, of First National
bank of Sprague, Wash., were visitors

home Saturday. The gentlemen had
business here in connection with the
sale of some land under foreclosure.

OREGON GRADE
CROSSING DEATHS
DECREASE IN 1 925
Washington and Idaho Show In
crease While Nevada Is Only
State Without Fatality.
By J. F. GRODZKI,
General Safety Agent, O-W. R. A N.
The Interstate Commerce Commis
sion records for 1925 show that there
were 1784 people killed in automobile
accidents at railroad grade crossings
in the United States during the year.
This in an increase of 6 per cent over
1924. During the same year the auto
mobile registration in the United
States increased 13 per cent. The fig
ures show that the nation-wide Care
ful Crossing Campaign of the rail
roads is bringing fruitful results, and
is a particularly outstanding feature
when the deaths from all auto acci
dents in the United States have in
creased from 17,240 in 1924 to 19,554
in 1925.
Below are figures for the three
northwestern states:
Registrations: Oregon, 1925, 216,
553: 1924, 192,615; Washington, 1925,
328,442: 1924, 296,443: Idaho, 1925,81,-
606; 1924, 69,227; Total, 1924, 557,-
401, 1924, 657,285.
All Automobile Fatalities: Oregon
1925, 151; 1924, 169; Washington,
1925, 833; 1924, 280; Idaho, 1925, 64;
1924, 69; Total, 1925, 648; 1924, 498.
Automobile Fatalities at Grade
Crossings: Oregon, 1925 8; 1924, 9;
Washington, 1925, 22; 1924, 13; Ida
ho, 1925 10; 1924, 3; Total, 1926, 40;
1924, 25.
It will be seen from the above that
there was a slight decrease in Ore
gon, while both Washington and Ida
he show an increase in fatalities at
grade crossings. Nevada is the only
stste in the Union which has no rail
road crossing accident fatality re
corded against it in 1925.
In the past four years the railroads
huve eliminated 3240 grade crossings
at a cost of nearly $250,000,000, and
in the same period 8000 new railroad
grade crossings have been opened,
making the total -now 242,807. The
estimated cost to eliminate thfcse
would be between 18 and 20 billion
dollars, a prohibitive sum.
Education of automobile drivers is
the only remedy for crossing acci
dents. The driver should always have
his mind on the job before him. He
should know that his steering gear
and brakes are in perfect condition.
He should know that his engine will
i.ot stall on the track. He should
know the location of all railroad
ciossings on the road he is traveling.
Only a small percentage of collisions
between two automobiles result in fa
talities, but a collision between an
automobile and a passenger or freight
train almost invariably results in
death.
There is only one safe way to get
over a railroad crossing, and that is
to be sure you have the right of way.
Be sure there is no train likely to
overtake you before you get over the
track. All public crossings are mark
ed by the familiar crossing sign.
These signs and the familiar slogan,
Stop, Look, and Listen" must be
heeded, or disaster will follow.

Stanfield People Have Joy
ous Time Celebrat
ing Event
The following from Stanfield Stand
ara will prove of interest to many
Morrow county folks, as Mr. and Mrs.
Waid were formerly residents here
living for many years in the Lexing
ton section:
Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Waid celebrated
their Golden Wedding anniversary at
their home in Stanfield, Friday, Aug
ust 6. Mr. Waid met Mrs. Waid, nee
Theresy E. Cox, near AuTora, Mo., and
they were married at McDowell, Mo.,
August 6, 1876.
The Waids brought their family to
Oregon in 1906, and they have lived in
Stanfield since 1909, being one of the
earliest settlers here. Their oldest
son died in 1910, leaving five children.
all of whom were present at Friday's
celebration.
The house was beautifully decorat
ed with golden rod and old fashioned
marigolds. The wedding anniversary
cake was made by Miss Erma Duvall,
the only grand daughter.
After dining, every one remained
seated at the festive table while Mr.
Waid told of his courtship and mar
riage. At the age of 24, he won his
sweetheart from another young man.
Knowing her father was not willing
that they marry, they planned a se
cret elopmest. Accompanied by a few
friends and relatives they met at Sun
day school near Aurora, Sunday after
noon, August 5, 1876, and accompan
ied by his brother, sister and a boy
friend they drove to McDowell where
they were married at ten o'clock the
next day.
Monday afternoon they drove back
to Mr. Waid's home and the following
day Mr. Cox sent word for his baby
girl to come back home again.
Mr. Waid says the only thing he
ever stole in his life was his wife, a
girl of 15, weighing 75 pounds.
Mr. and Mrs. Waid were presented
with a lovely chest of silverware from
their grand children.
Those present were Mr. and Mrs.
Neil White and eon Vivian of Ukiah;

HEPPNER GARAGE
UiDlAT
ItWeelt
By Arthur Brisbane,
At the Hip Bone.
$1,000.44 for Dinner.
Big Spending Difficult.
Roosevelt's Last Words.
Paris announces that the waistline
of fashionable ladies now definitely
starts just above the hip bone. From
that point up the back is to be entire
ly uncovered in the evening. Also
brilliant colors will be worn.
A woman thus dressed will look aa
silly as a bird of paradise with all the
feathers plucked off the back, but the
won't know it.
Theatrical people each pay $1,000.44
for a dinner forty-four cents for the
food, one thousand dollars for the
Actors' Fund. Forty-four cents for
one dinner seems cheap to a prosper
ous actor. It seems a good deal to the
mother of five children whose hus
band earns $4 a day.
At forty-four cents a meal, that
family would need each day $9.24 for
food alone, leaving a deficit of $5.24 a
day, to say nothing of rent and cloth
ing. Those that call $5 a day high
wages should try living and keeping
a family on that sum.
Engineers suggest filling in nine
square miles of upper New York Bay,
half to belong to New Jersey, half to
New York. The work would cost $400,-
000,000, and the land would be worth
five thousand million dollars.
The idea would be to plan a new
modern city, sidewalks on the sidea of
buildings, playgrounds and roads
above buildings, landing places for
airplanes, etc.
There are thousands of chances to
spend public money for improvements
that would pay for themselves ten
times over, but it is hard for us to
appropriate large sums, unless other
nations start cutting each other's
throats. Then we become generous,
"easy marks," pour out our billions
and buy foreign hatred with them.
Gland grafting may not help fool
ish old men to become as young and
silly as they used to be, but such
grafting may be useful to farmers.
Dr. Voronoff, scientist, experimenting
on a flock of 3,000 sheep in Algiers,
proved to French scientists that graft
ing an additional gland on each young
ram increased the average weight of
the animal by 19 pounds, and added
half a pound to the weight of the
fleece.
"No man a hero to his valet," did
not apply to Theodore Roosevelt. His
valet writes for Collier's Weekly
about the last days of his master as
a convinced hero worshiper. Alone
with Roosevelt at the moment of his
death, the valet says Roosevelt's last
words were "Please put out the light"
Theodore Roosevelt was tired, his
heart was broken by the death of his
son, Quentin. Goethe's last words
were, "More light." They were ap
propriate, for few men have contrib
uted more light to the human race
than Gothe contributed.
The question for us all is this:
Does death mean only "putting out
the light," or does it mean for us all
"MORE LIGHT?"
French births are diminishing, and
French population is inceasing, which
is the right idea. Instead of having
many new babies, half or two-thirds
of them dying, the French, who un
derstand health, keep alive those who
are born.
Wages are up, taxes are down, Gov
ernment receipts are up, the cost of
living is down. President Cooldige
doesn't claim the credit. He says:
"No government can make prosper
ity." One thing is certain. President
Coolidge has not prevented rising
prosperity from RISING. And that
is something in these days.
FORMER RESIDENT DIES.
An item in the obituary column of
the Oregonian the past week an
nounced the death at his home in
Vernonia, Oregon, on August 4th of
W. T. Hatton, at the age of 67 years.
Mr. Hatton was the owner of a black
smith shop at Vernonia, but had a
short time prior to his death dispos
ed of his property holdings. The fu
neral was conducted under the aus
pices of Harding Lodge, Knights of
Pythias, of which Mr, Hatton was a
member. Burial was in Vernonia
cemetery. He is survived by his
widow and two children.
Mr. Hatton was formerly a resident
of Heppner, living here for many
years, during which time he followed
his trade of blacksmith and worked
in the shop of Pap Simons, as well aa
running a shop here on his own ac
count. He left Heppner shortly after
the flood of June 14, 1903, living at
different places, finally locating at
Vernonia.
