One of the greatest events of the school year was the presenting of two debates between the junior-senior and sophomore-freshman debating teams. The senior team, composed of Orrin Bisbee, Marjorie Clark and Mary Rit chie, with Louise Thomson and Earle Ayers as alternates, entered the lists against the junior team, supported by Marvin Gammell, Bobby Turner and Claud Conder with Mae Doherty and Gerald Slocum, alternates. The sub ject was: Resolved, The United States cabinet is operating unsuccessfully. The seniors supported the negative and the juniors the affirmative. Tha judges were Mrs. Jeff Beamer, Earl Gordon and Milton W. Bower. Two time-keepers were chosen from the faculty. The chairman was the prin cipal of the high school, Harold John sen. The first speaker for the affirmative, Marvin Gammell, opened the debate with a very well formed speech. He gave his discussion in a decisive man ner, and time was called before he was through. The first speaker for the negative was Orrin Bisbee, who maintained his ability as a debater of high standing. As second speak er for the affirmative, Claud Conder. who had one of the best arguments, set forth a number of reasons for the successful cabinet in the U. S.. M jorie Clark, second speaker for the negative, impressed the audience with her stage-presence and excellent man ner of delivery. Her plea is consid ered about the best for the negative. Bobby Turner was the third speaker for the affirmative and upheld the cause so well that he seemed the hero of the juniors. Yet his speech was readily torn to pieces by Mary Rit chie third speaker for the negative side of the discussion. By the time Mary was through, Bob's speech lay stranded. Orrin closed the negative with a well planned rebuttal. His witty sayings carried out his point of view decidedly well. Closing the de bate Marvin gave the rebuttal for the affirmative. This 'was a very strong rebuttal, but time was called on Mar vin when he was just getting warmed up. The judges' decision was two for the negative and one affirmative. The debate was very close, almost result ing in a draw. The seniors realize they were nearly equalled by the ju niors, who have been proving their abilities all year. This debate was held last Thursday, February 3. The freshmen and sophomores met on Friday. The freshman team was composed of Fletcher Walker, Evelyn Swindig and Katherine Bisbee, with Mary Beamer and John Parker as al ternates. The sophomores had some trouble in deciding on debaters, as those who were first appointed could not serve. Dorothy Herren substi tuted for Paul Jones, and Terrel Benge for Harlan Devin, the third member being Margaret Notson. The alternates were Clarence Hayes and Jack Casteel. The subject for this debate was: Resolved, The Philip pines should be given their freedom within five years. The sophomores upheld the affirmative and the fresh men the negative. The judges were Mrs. E. R. Huston, Gerald Smith and I. V. Parker. The first speaker for the affirmative was Dorothy Herren, who showed her self quite capable to present the sub ject in a thorough fashion, proving her points amid good stage presence. First speaker for the negative was Fletcher Walker. The freshmen have a likely fellow in Fletcher, and ought to feel justly proud of his ability. Terrel Benge, second speaker for the i-.ffirmative, rapidly overcame his per plexity and scored a few points. Sec ond negative speaker was Katherine Bisbee, whose aptness readily con vinced one that she was on her job every minute. Katherine is living up to the name Orrin has made as a de bater. Margaret Notson, as third speaker for affirmative, gave a very fine argument, showing the freshmen they were under rapid fire, Evelyn Swindig was the negative third speak er, and presented her speech in a convincing manner. Katherine Bis bee gave the rebuttal and closing for the negative. Dorothy Herren closed the debate in the affirmative rebuttal and gave a very decisive delivery. The decision of the judges was two for the affirmative and one for the nega tiv. The decision for both these de bates was very close, and they all showed hard work on the part of the students and advisers. A hearty co operation was felt throughout the preparation. The debates were well received, and proved quite profitable, not only to the debators, but also n the students listening. More Debates to be Held. On Monday, February 14, the losers of the past two debates, the juniors and freshmen, will- meet in debate on the following question: Resolved: The cabinet system of state govern ment should be adopted in Oregon The juniors uphold the negative and the freshmen the affirmative. Then, Tuesday, the fifteenth, the winners, sophomores and seniors, meet, debat ing the same question.- The sopho mores have the negative and the sen iors the affirmative. These debates determine the state championship and the P. T. A. cup. The winners are debating for the first and second places, and the losers for third and fourth. The district ques tion for debate is the same as for these two debates. FOOTBALL LETTERS AWARDED. On Wednesday, February 2nd, the football boys were rewarded for their hard knocks and fine playing on the football field last fall. Coach John son presented fifteen letters and one monogram to the boys, in the pres ence of the student body. A mono gram is given any boy winning a let ter for three consecutive years. The boy to receive this honorable award was Eugene Doherty. We rest as sured that Eugene won this with hard work and many a bruise, for he told us something about that in a talk before the assembly. Those to receive letter are: Bob Turner, Terrel Benge, Delvin Adkins, Howard Evans, Dick Wightman, Stephen Thompson, Ones Parker, Marvin Gammell, Merle Beck- et, Red Bramer, Paul Jones, Harold Erwin, Harold Gentry, Bill Bucknum, and Gerald Slocum, Bill Bucknum, captain of the team, gave a short talk in which he ex pressed his appreciation of the back ing by the team and studnt body at large. .-Coach Johnson then gave in some detail the meaning and pn":l ege of wearing these letters. Ho said that everyone should remember, when seeing the letters, the work, the trials and hardships these have un dergone, to gain the recognition, hon or and privilege of wearing them. He also brought out the point, that each member of Heppner high should feel that they have a part in these letters and therefore should be just as proud that these boys are wearing them for the student body helped make the tejm have the fighting spirit. o Student Council Meeting. A meeting of the Student Council was called by the student body presi dent, Merie Becket. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the He hisch. It was decided that a Hehisch would be put out this year. Louise Thomson was appointed editor-in- thief. o Jasper Crawford, advertising man ager of the Gazette Times, was pres ent at the Heppnerian staff meeting held Monday afternoon in the library. He gave pointers on how news notes should be written and showed some of the weak points of news writing to be avoided at all times. The members of the staff were greatly benefited by his talk and the Heppnerian will profit by it. Sepalla and Togo with them disinfected. The hands i iould be washed frequently. During an epidemic every one should avoid crowded, ill-ventilated places, should dress warmly, keep dry, eat simple food, exercise scrupulous cleanliness and avoid getting over tired. CARD OF THANKS.

Pandemics of influenza usually have their origin in the East, beginning in Asia and travelling westward until they have encompassed the world. In fluenza has been epidemic in Europe for the past three weeks. The epi demic is reported as severe and that pneumonia is a frequent complication. The spread of influenza depends upon two principal conditions the pres ence of the infective agent and sus ceptible individuals. The rate of transmission depends on the proxim ity of communities and the intimacy of contact between individuals. In fluenza is, undoubtedly, spread through the secretions and discharges from the nose and mouth of persons suffering from influenza, or from those of a carrier, which gain en trance to the respiratory tract of oth er individuals. Droplet infection may easily occur if susceptible individuals are in close enough proximity to re ceive the particles given off in sneez ing, coughing, talking, laughing, or through any other means whereby they are forcibly expelled from the mouth and nose. Influenza attacks its victims in suc cession. It is brought by some mem ber of the family into the home, and is conveyed to other members of the familv directly or through those whom he has infected. Objects which have been recently contaminated with discharges from the nose and mouth are important agents in conveying the virus. As in common colds and other respiratory infections an innumerable number of articles may be soiled with influenzal discharges. The hands are a fre quent means of conveyance, both by the direct and indirect route. It Z 1 7 DOYOOTHINK V WE'LL TEST HIS . 4 !
