SCHOOL PICNIC. On Thursday, May 19, the annual school picnic will be held. This will be the climax of the exams which will be finished on Wednesday. Un der the point system the class with the highest number of votes may pro vide nothing for this picnic, one oth er class wlil furnish the transporta tion, and the remaining two classes will furnish the food. A committee of three, Merle Becket, Gerald Slo cum and Mr. Johnson has been select ed to decide upon the location. They plan to go no farther than fifteen miles away, possibly twenty. It is reported that they may decide to go up Rhea creek. Junior Flunk Day. Last Friday the juniors limped in to asembly so sore and weary -that they could hardly walk. It seems that their hike to the old mill from the camp was very strenuous to say the least. They all admitted that they had put in a day, getting up piobably at five o'clock and getting beck after dark. But they all said they had had a good time and would like to live the day over again. They went to the mountains above Butter creek. o Miss Thorpe, Miss Bleakman and Miss Fredreckson will start upon a tour of Oregon on the 21st of this month. They will go into Idaho from La Grande, from there down through Southern Oregon to Crater Lake, then up to Bend, across Mc Kenzie pass to Eugene, Portland and back home. They will drive in Miss Thorpe's car and plan to be gone about two weeks. Miss Pearson: "What animal eats the least food?" Harlan Devin: "The moth, it eats holes." ANNUAL PUBLISHED. To add to the zest of the Hi-Jinks on Saturday evening, some 200 vol umes of the 1926-27 issue of the high school annual, The Hehisch. came off the press and were ready for distri bution. Accordingly a booth was erected at the carnivnl at which any who had not theretofore placed an or der for an annual had the privilege of purchasing one for the sum of 9 1.25. Sixteen annuals were issued and the sales mannger felt somewhat tncouraged by the returns of the ef forts put forth. On Monday, annuals were issued to each member of the sales force for distribution and about 70 were disposed of. There have been about 135 or 140 annuals spoken for. As we have 200 printed, it spells "dig" for the salesmen, to sell the rest. We have hopes of being able to sell the annuals readily. If the entire lot are not sold this year, next year will find the school without an an nual, for Mr. Burgess is strictly against the school running into debt on the annual this year. Why can we not sell 200 annuals in a town of over 1500 population? Surely there are 200 people interested enough in the high school to buy a Hehisch. We wish all those desiring annuals, and who have not been solicited, to please put your order in as soon as possible. The annual itself is a very fine lit tle book, containing the news of the' school for the past year, and also the pictures of the students and faculty. The cover design is unusually attrac tive. It is a good souvenir of your school. Secure one. Booster Club Sales. The Girls' Booster club has awak ened to the fact htat they are in dire need of funds, and to meet this de mand, they are planning a series of sales. On Thursday, May 12, the club will sell lemonade and orangeade for five cents a glass. This will ap pease the thirst of those who want something slightly stronger than water. Friday, the 13th, will see the club selling small souvenir yell books. These little volumes will be of the high school colors, purple and gold, and will sell for ten cents. The sou venirs will contain five of the favor ite yells of the high school, and every student should have one as a re membrance of his high school days. On the day of the high school pic nic the booster club girls will have booth of ice-cold drinks, and sell them at the popular five cent price. jMiimmiiitiimiiMiiiiHiiiiiiiiiMtiiiiiiMmtiHifiiiiiiMiiiit Announcement j Owners and purchas- ers can now get direct service on j DELCO LIGHT i PLANTS I and j FRIGIDAIRE I from j CONDON GARAGE 1 COMPANY Condon.

The grade school baseball team played its last game of the season at lone Friday. Ritchie, the lone pitcher, twirled JK'ith great effective ness, allowing only one hit which was obtained by Bruce Gibb, Heppner catcher. The Heppner boys played very good ball in the field while lone allowed two scores to be made on errors. lone won 7-2. Four games were played during the season. Heppner beat Lexington twice and dropped both games to the lone team. Baseball letters will be issued to the following boys: Bruce Gibb, El mer Hake, James McNamee, Orrin Furlong, Roy Gentry, Oral Wright, Alex Ulrich, Gay Anderson, Earl Thomson, Lyle Cowdrey and Clarence Erwin. Athletics in the grades have proven successful during the whole year. It is believed that it has caused better attendance, better work in the class room, and has lessened discipline trouble. The boys have taken a great interest in it, have done ali the work outside of school hours, and have paid all cm enses by the gate receipts from ineir own games, iwo or tnree years of training in the grades will un-' doubtedly . improve athletics in the high school in the years to come. It is hoped that the work will be continued next year. o Faculty Banquet. The faculty gave a banquet in honor of the school board Tuesday.

High school students are nervously cramming for the exams which will be given Tuesday and Wednesday as the exemptions have as yet not been published. Students are hastily scribbling term papers, book reports and outlines which, as usual, have been left to the last possible moment. o The junior-senior banquet which is to be given Saturday is progressing rapidly. Both committees are work ing hard and it is hoped it will be a success. A deep and sonorous rumble, not unlike a worn out saw, pierced the stillness of assembly the other after noon. The noise was discovered to emit from a certain small boy in the sub-freshman row. Not even the up roar of returning classes could dis turb his somnolence. Though his name was announced upon the eighth period list he heard it not.' The sym pathetic upperclassmen tried in vain to suppress their mirth that his slum ber might not be rent. At the dis missal of school, Mr. Johnson was forced to arouse the young man who awoke to a circle of grinning and simewhat boistrous classmates. He yawned at his audience, a trifle em brassed, but very much refreshed. This young Dreamer of Dreams was Jce Swindig. o Mae Groshens gave an interesting 15-minute talk on Poison Gas, in chemistry Tuesday. It was enjoyed immensely, especially as there was no class recitation. o Mr. Burgess: "Have you ever done any public spenkirg before'?" Paul Hisler: "Once; I asked a girl for a date over our party line." o Dorothy Herren: "Are you going to the fair?" Norma Short: "What fair?" D. H.: "Well, the paper says fair here today and tomorrow. o The Honor Roll for the grades will not be published this term because they cannot be detrmined until the last day of school.
