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.
Group 3, David Baker, lone, first;
Dean Goodman, Heppner, second;
Gladys Lovgren, Hale Ridge, third.
First prizes are $3, second $2, and

the following firms donated merch
andise to the value of $3 for prizes:
Hiatt & Dix, Thomson Bros., Mor
row County Creamery Co., Mac

EPISCOPAL CHURCH.
Rev. Stanley Moore, missionary-in-charge.
Morning prayer and sermon at 11.
Church school at 9:45 o'clock.
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.
San Souci Rebekah lodge elected
at its meeting Friday night Mrs.
Opal Ayers, Mrs. Ella Benge and
Mrs. Lillian Turner, delegates to
the grand lodge to be held in Port
land late in May.

Traffic Survey Here
Nation-Wide in Scope
W. G. Bennett of Salem, state
traffic officer, was stationed a mile
north of Lexington on the Oregon
Washington highway Monday, stop
ping automobiles to gain informa
tion for a traffic survey being made,
cooperatively, by the U. S. bureau of
public roads and the state traffic de
partment. The survey is being made
to determine the amount of traffic
over the many roads of the nation
with a view of spending appropria
tions where most needed as indicat
ed by results of the survey.
When a car is stopped by an of
ficer the driver is handed a card,
which he is asked to fill out and to
mail to the U. S. bureau of public
roads. Questions asked on the card
are: What was your mileage today?
If, today you started from or are
going to a point outside this state,
from what state do you come? To
what state are you going? How
many passengers, including driver?
For trucks give capacity in tons.
Do you live. 1, on a farm; 2, in a
town of 2500 or under; 3, in a city
of more than 2500 (check one). In
what state is your car registered?

survey also observe weather condi
tions and inspect the roads to de
termine how well they are standing
up under traffic.
