Conway and wife of Port land were vlBitors at Heppner on Thursday night last Mr. Conway who is secretary of the Oregon Good Roads association, had made other visits to Heppner, but not since the completion of our good highway to the junction, and he was loud in his praise of this splen did road. It Is his privilege to trav el over all parts of the state, and shortly before coming to this city he had been over hundreds of miles of the completed roads under the Oregon highway system, and was free to say there are none better than Willow creek highway. He suggested that more work should be done by Heppner people to di rect travel over the Oregon-Washington highway to and from Pen dleton; it is certainly a great change for those whose habit it Is to make the journey many times a year over the Old Oregon Trail be tween Heppner Junction and Pen dleton.
