BOARDMAN
MRS. A. T. HEREIM. Correspondent
Miss Helen Chaffee and Carol
Kennedy motored to Heppner on
Sunday, December 22, where they
were married by Rev. White of the
Methodist church Sunday after
noon. The bride was charming in
brown silk. She was attended by

the attractive daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. A. B. Chaffee, and has spent
most of her girlhood here, gradu
ating from the Boardman high
school. Since her graduation she
has clerked in Gorham's store. The
bridegroom has been Jack Gor
ham's right hand man at the store
since the latter started in business.
He is a nephew of Mrs. Ray Brown.
The marriage was kept secret until
Christmas eve when the newly
married couple left by motor for
Weston,, the home of the groom, to
spend Christmas. They will visit
other points, being away for about
a week. They have rented Mrs.
Shell's house where they will make
their home.
Ferdinand Paristian of Unity, Or.,
is spending some time at the Ma

The community Christmas of 1929
will long be remembered for it was
an unqualified success in every way
and in a small community it seems
desirable to unite all interests at
the Christmastide. Heretofore there
has been a tree and program at the
church and one at the school. This
year everyone contributed financial
ly or with help In some way. The
decorating committee of which Mrs.
W. O. King was chairman, arranged
most attractive decorations with the
Star of Bethlehem the predominant
note on a star-dotted background.
The program committee with Mrs,
Titus chairman, Mrs. Mead, Mrs.
Marschat, Miss Brown and Mrs.
Broyles, arranged a pleasing pro.
gram, as follows: Community song,
invocation, Mrs. Miller; Star of the
East, Victor Orthophonic; Scripture
reading, Geo. Wicklander; Solo, Mrs.
Rands; "Christmas Bells," 14 little
folks, several of whom made hteir
first public appearance at this time;
violin solo, Victor Hango, with Lin
da accompanying; recitation, Cath
erine Mead; Christmas song, 14 ju
nior girls; reading, Mrs. Hereim;
community song. This completed
the first part of the program. A
pageant of the Nativity followed.
This was beautifully portrayed with
the parts of Mary and Joseph taken
by Mrs. Rands and Lee Mead, the
shepherds, the angels, the wise men.
the inn keeper all in realistic cos
tumes and well taken. Mrs. Mead
played the accompaniment for the
pageant and the chorus sang back
stage. The appearance of Old San
ta (Chas Wicklander) thru the fire
place brought hilarious shouts from
the children. Santa brought a treat
for every individual on the project,
Pete Farley was chairman of the
finances and Mr. Johnson of the
treats and both had able assistants.
Everyone on the project who did
not have sickness at home was pres
ent and enjoyed the happy Christ
mas eve. Only one criticism could
possibly be offered and that was re
garding the few Christmas gifts
which were distributed at the tree.
While grown-ups understand, the
small folks cannot see why there is
not a gift for everyone. Let us
have the treats for all but give our
gifts elsewhere than at the tree and
above all let us make this commun
ity Christmas an annual event, at
least until we assume the propor
tions of a city.

1929 was a great year.
So why shouldn't 1930
be better. The price
of Fords dropped and
Henry is raising the
wages of his men at
the same time. Her
bie Hoover and Will
Rogers are going to
be a big help toward
runnnig the country.
Nothing con stop the

Did you know that a
cow will give more
milk if she is kept
warm? We don't mean
that you should go out
with a hot water bot
tle for Bessy but it
would be a good idea
to fix up the barn for
really cold weather.
Just a Review of 1929.
The following review
is printed in this pa
per exclusively. Only
important events are
mentioned, the Zeppe
lin flight and election
of Hoover are not
worth while.
Jan. 13. The last
New Years Resolution
went broke.
March 33. Was real
ly the second of April.
April. Fishing sea
son opened.
July 4. 4th of July.
Nov. 3. The Editor's
Xmas cigarette lighter
finally worked.
Dec. 14. Congress
passed a bill. Con
gratulations sent by
President.
(Not so good, but it
took up a little space.)
Sears & Roebuck are
using the thirteen -month
year in their
business, and it is
freely predicted that
everyone will be using
the idea soon. That
will mean more pay
days a year, shorter
months but more of
them. It also means
the rent will come due
more often, and it
won't be so long be
tween the monthly
bills: So in the long
run it won't matter
much.
