BOARDMAN
MRS. A. T. HEREIM, Correspondent
Mrs. Brice Dillabough was hostess
Wednesday to the Home Economics
club at the home of Mrs. Ray
Brown. This meeting was held at
this time because the previous Wed
nesday was so very cold it was fear
ed few could attend. About 17 were
present and had a pleasant day.
After lunch plans were made for a
dance to be given in February when
the "hope chest" will be given away.
The next meeting will be with Mrs.
H. V. Tyler, February 12.
Geo. Mefford was a business vis
itor here from Portland one day last
week.
Friends were welcoming Chas.
Barnes after many months' absence.
He has spent most of the time in
California.
Wilbanks have had a telephone in
stalled. Burns brothers of Newberg, Ore.
stopped for a short visit at the
Waite home Thursday en route to
Spokane. They left here at 11 and
reached their destination at 8 that
night in spite of adverse weather
conditions.
A delightful dancing party was
given Saturday night at the Jack
Rainville home. Between 25 and
30 couples were present and all had
a pleasant time. Refreshments were
served.
Boardman basketball boys defeat
ed lone Friday night in the second
league game of the season, with the

the boys played well. They play
here Wednesday of this week and
Friday night also.
The Home Economics club gave
another of its pleasant card parties
Saturday night at the home of Mrs
Nick Faler. There were 40 present.
When scores were counted Tom
Hendricks and Mrs. I. Skoubo re
ceived high and Mrs. Wilbanks and
Mr. Skoubo low. Lovely refresh
ments were served.
Boardman residents were permit
ted to see old Mother Earth once
again after having seen her mantled
with "the beautiful" for the past
three weeks, when a Chinook came
Saturday and Sunday. Miniature
lakes and pools were prevalent ev
erywhere for a time.
One of those bitter cold nights
Howard Packard walked from home
to Messner to take a train to Port
land. While so doing he froze his
feet and has been under a doctor's
care in Portland.
Mr3. Z. J. Gillespie left Saturday
for Elkton, Ore., where she will
complete a term for another teach
er. On Sunday Mr. Gillespie moved
to the Jay Cox ranch which he has
rented. We had the Gillespies mov
ed some time ago but the report
was several weeks premature.
Sam Ledbetter came up Thursday
from Portland to visit his wife who

Mrs. Mike Rowell. On Sunday the
Ledbetters and Walter Rowell vis
ited at the John Graves home and
Sunday afternoon Mr. Ledbetter left
for Portland again.
Ray Barlow was called to Blalock
Sunday for relief work.
February 15 is the date set by the
Home Economics club for the dance
at which the cedar chest will be giv
en away. The new ruling passed in
a resolution at Pomona grange will
be strictly enforced, so those who
feel that a supply of "moon" is es
sential and conducive to a good time
may find their evening's pleasure
curtailed.
D. F. Barlow of Heppner visited
Sunday at his brother's home here.
Mr .Schurchert who has had
charge of installing the machinery
in the new coal chutes left Sunday
for his home in Chicago.
Boardman will play Heppner Fri
day night on the home floor, Lex
ington Feb. 14 at Lexington, and

sult her physician about her arm.
Mr. and Mrs. F. A. Fortier and
Norma were house guests at the
Campbell home over the week end,
returning Sunday evening.

next to Messner where Mr. Duggan
will be employed on the coal chutes.
They moved recently to the Mead

place has been leased to a man
from Condon.
Burton Barnes came from Butter
creek and is staying at the High
way Inn while having some dental

Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Barlow motor

There was a large attendance at
the P. T. A. meeting Friday night.
After the business meeting a char
acter playlet was given with Ruth
King and Ralph Skobo having the
leading parts. A duet by Mr. Mar-
schat and Miss Henry was well re
ceived. Later the grown-ups went
to the high school assembly room
where Mr. Marschat gave an In
troduction to the book on "Charac
ter Education" by Germaine and
Germaine, which is to be studied by
the organization. The book is ex
ceedingly interesting and Mrs.
King's review on the chapter "Char
acter Training in the Home" proved
to be of much interest. Mrs. Titus
was to have reviewed the chapter,
Character Training In the School,
but the hour grew late, so this will
be given at the next meeting. Mrs.
Marschat, Mr. Ransier and Mrs.
Coats were the program commit
tee In charge. After the meeting
the crowd had delicious clam chow
der, sandwiches and coffee. After
this dancing was enjoyed until mid
night The P. T. A. is becoming an or
ganization that is doing actual P.
T. A. work in the community. Our
children are our greatest assets, and
if the P. T. A. as an organization
can sponsor some project looking to
the application of the study of char
acter training in a concrete way
with tangible results, it will not
have been an effort in vain.

Never has a Chevrolet car won greater
praise for its appearance than the new
Chevrolet Six. Its new Fisher bodies
reveal in every detail the artistry that
has made the Fisher name famous
throughout the motor car world. In
beauty of line and color, in balance
and harmony of design, they represent
one of the greatest style triumphs in
Fisher history. Upholsteries are richer
and more durable. The instrument
panel carries a new and more attrac
tive grouping of the control instru
ments. Seats are wider and deeper.
In fact, not a single feature has been
overlooked that would
add to the comfort and
convenience of both
driver and passengers.

It All Depends
"It is impossible for me to save any
money on my present income." No
doubt you have often heard such a
remark. Is it true?
Well, it all depends. Most people
could save SOMETHING, be it ever
so small, if they would give up some
of the things they lead themselves to
think necessary. The trouble is, they
often refuse to deny themselves. They
are not willing to pay the price NOW.
But most of them pay LATER, when
they can ill afford to pay.
