PAGE EIGHT HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, APRIL 3, 1930. Butter Essay Contest Winners Are Selected Winners have been selected in the butter essay contest sponsored by the Heppner Lions club for school children of Morrow county. The contest was conducted to create a greater interest in the use of but ter, there being a surplus on hand because of increased use of substi tutes. As the dairy industry is of importance in this county, it was seen that an aid to that industry, would be beneficial to the people of the county in general. Titles for the composition were. "Butter vs. Butter Substitutes in the Child's Diet," and "Why Butter is Essential in the Diet" The contest was divided into three sections ac cording to school grade, group one, high school; group two, grades 7 and 8; gruop 3, grades 5 and 6. The word limit for the essays in each class was 500. 300 and 150 words respectively. The winners were: group 1, Ver die Leach, Irrigon, first; Josephine Buschke, lone, second; Edris Rit chie, lone, third. Group 2, Beth Wright, Golden West, first; Helen Breshears, Lexington, second; Frank Anderson, Heppner, third.

Young People's Fellowship at 6 at the rectory. Let us remember that this is Palm Sunday, the day of our Lord's triumphal entry into the Holy City, Jerusalem. Many and sore were the trials of the week following, which culminated in a sinister cross on storm-ridden Calvery. Then a glor ious Easter morn dispells the gloom and sorrow. Christ is victor over death. He is the resurrection and the life, for in Him as in the Fath er we live and move and have our being. Do not forget the Lenten service on Wednesday of the coming week. On Good Friday there will be the usual three-hour service from 12 noon until three o'clock in the af ternoon. During these hours our Lord hung upon the cross and suf fered because of the sin that was in man Today we still crucify Him in our evil thoughts and words and deeds. During those hours we ought to come to the church and examine our souls in the shadow of the suf ferings of Jesus. THE EASTER CANTATA. Much fine progress has been made with the Easter cantata, "Bright Easter Morn," by E. K. Heyser, to be given in the Episcopal church this year. About thirty-five voices are taking part in the choruses. Those who have attended all of the rehearsals have been over the whole cantata and are beginning to feel sure of their parts, but quite a few have missed some rehearsals. We urge them to attend the next re hearsals. These will take place at 6:30 this evening, 7:30 Friday eve ning and at 7:30 Monday evening. Later' rehearsals will be announced at those meetings. The voices for the solo parts have been chosen and will be printed in the next is sue of this paper. DELEGATES NAMED.
