u HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, JANUARY 9, 1930 PAGE FIVE h PUIS m m or th ilia bu Nancu hart ''There's nothing she can't do with a cqn of paint and a paint brush," said one young woman en thusiastically about another. "And she has a perfect passion for doing it, too. She'd rather paint things than eat or dance." What this young woman liked to paint, we learned, was not minia tures, or portraits or even decora tions on china, but such things as wicker furniture, window sills, porch floors and even the family au tomobile when it needed it. With her talent for painting she was able at very small expense to transform a rather ordinary sort of sun parlor with some odds and ends of wicker furniture into one of the most de lightful rooms of the sort. One thing that this young woman insists on, however, is that she should always have her paints mix ed by the professional paint dealer. If she is going to do a very small job she will use a small can of ready-mixed paints, but otherwise she goes to a paint dealer who can be trusted and gets him to mix the desired quantity of paint for her. She insists that she owes much of her success to this precaution. She has also been able to furnish several rooms in her house at rath er small expense, by using unpaint ed furniture which she has painted to suit herself. Now, many persons seem to be of the opinion that un painted furniture is so expensive that it is not worth the trouble of painting it for themselves. Better buy the ready-painted sort. How ever, it really is possible, through some searching, to find attractive pieces of the unpainted sort at small cost. Don't imagine for a minute that painting is easy. One reason why this young woman likes the work Is because it really is difficult and therefore well worth her best effort Oatmeal Bread One and one-half 'cups rolled oats, one cake compressed yeast, one and one-half teaspoons salt, two cups warm water, two tablespoons sugar. Place oats in warm water. Dissolve yeast cake in one-third cup of luke warm water; add two tablespoons of lard and salt Add one and one-half cups of flour to the oats, then add the yeast and salt.

Hoss Gives Hints On of Use License Stickers Suggestions relative to the use of automobile witdshield stickers, which are being issued during the first six months of 1930 to indicate that payment of motor vehicle li cense fees has been made for that period, were made Monday by Hal E. Hoss, secretary of state, who has charge of motor vehicle registration in Oregon. "Of prime importance, I would urge that stickers should be affixed at once to windshields," says Mr. Hoss, ''and not carried about in pockets or billfolds, as is frequent ly done when gummed permit slips are received. Many times traffic of ficers have halted non-resident cars to inquire about registration in Ore gon and have found that the driver of the automobile had properly reg istered but had tucked the sticker away hastily in a pocket of his car or coat. The 1930 motorist will be relieved of much embarrassment and will save some work for the motor vehicle division if he will place the sticker, which is In real ity a receipt, upon his windshield at once. All other stickers should be re moved from automobiles before the official one is put in place, accord ing to the secretary of state. Under the statutes, none but official state stickers are allowable, but many motorists carry advertising or prop aganda slogans or leave permits from other states on their cars months after they are non-effective. A suggestion has been made that car owners cover the backs of the stickers with shellac after they are pasted on the glass. This does away with damage from moisture inside the car and should keep the sticker in good shape throughout the half-year period. Close watch is to be kept by all traffic officers for muddy metal number plates, and motorists are warned that their license plates should be clear of grime at all times in order that the numerals may be easily distinguished. The plan for use of the 1929 metal plates for the six-month period in conjunc tion with the special windshield stickers was formulated by the 1929 legislature to adapt the procedure to the change in the yearly regis tration period. "I refused you a loan on Sunday and now you are asking again for one?" "Yes, I wanted to show you that there was no ill-feeling between us." Teacher: Why do you insist on spelling bank with a capital "B"? Johnny: Well, pa said a bank was no good unless it has a big capital.

BALSIGER, lone, Oregon Agent for Morrow County The holidays are over Gone their parties, their decorations and the long evenings of play for young and old. Consider how unobtrusively, yet how great ly electricity has contributed to the color, the comfort and the safety of your holidays. Christmas decorations safely illuminated plenty of light for entertaining or for reading those new books. Certainly your electric bill may be a trifle larger but consider how small the additional expense compared to the brightness and joy it, brought. Without this inexpensive service holidays would indeed be drab.
