PAGE TWO HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, APRIL 17, 1930. BOARDMAN MRS. A. T. HEREIM, Correspondent. The Home Economics club gave a pleasant card party Wednesday evening at Tom's camp, following a delicious evening meal. This was held instead of the usual afternoon meeting. Ladies high score went to Katharine Brown. Mrs. Ed Souder's mother, Mrs. Thomas, has gone to The Dalles to spend the summer. Mrs. Thomas has been here with her daughter all winter.

Mr. and Mrs. William Tagg came last week from Gearhart, for a vis it with their daughter, Mrs. W. O. King and family. Dr. F. V. Prime was down from Hermiston and made a dental ex amination of the school children. Four children with mouth in per fect condition were found. They were Nellie and Clara Dillon and Ruth and Francine King. All four are children whose teeth have been given proper dental care from the time the first cavity appeared. Boardman rarely sees any of the county officials with the exception of the always obliging county agent, except around campajgn time, but has found two splendid workers in the county physician Dr. Gray and county nurse Miss Stallard, and their efforts in stamping out the whooping cough epidemic here are much appreciated. A wild case of whooping cough which was not rec ognized until everyone had been ex posed and ten or 12 cases were rag ing, started it Three trips giving vaccine to children entailed much time and work, and the long siege of whooping cough averted for one child or lightened for another justi fies the effort for whooping cough is one of the dread disease of child hood and often leaves dread after effects. Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Pyle of Ar lington stopped for a short visit at the Y. P. Rutherford home. Friends of the Humphreys will be interested to learn that they have leased a wheat ranch in the Colfax territory and will again try wheat farming.

Children's Playground Available at Low Cost While the average family today finds the cost of developing the playground idea in the back yard with commercial equipment prohi bitive, the youngsters need not be deprived of its advantages, says Grant Swan of the department of physical education at Oregon State college in a recent discussion over KOAC. It can often be made at home at a nominal cost "If father can hit a nail without smashing his finger, he can at a very low cost obtain such equip ment for the backyard which will give the greatest returns both in use and pleasure to the children," said Mr. Swan. For children under six years of age, it is desirable to have the fol lowing equipment: a chair swing, a sand box, a small slide, and a simple, low climbing device. To hold the interest of the more active youngster of from six to 12, requires more complicated appar atus, but even this need not be ex pensive. The favorite equipment at this age consists of a 12 foot swing, a slide eight feet high and approximately 16 feet long, a hori zontal bar and a seesaw. As an illustration of the ease and economy with which this equipment can be constructed, the following are the specifications offered for the seesaw: 1 piece 2in. x 12 in. x 14 ft fir. 1 piece 2 in. x 12 in. x 14 ft. fir. 1 pipe 2 in. x 2 ft 2 steel half circle clamps. The two pieces 4 in. x 4 in. x 4 ft. are set in the ground 18 inches to two feet deep and two feet apart, measuring from outside to outside. The pipe is set perpendicular to the posts a couple of inches from the top by drilling holes in the posts. The piece 2 in. x 12 in. x 14 ft. is finished on all sides with edges rounded. The half circle clamps are fastened in the middle of the board around the pipe. To hold the apparatus firm in place of clamps, a 2 in. x 6 in. x 12 in. tapered can be nailed perpendicular to the board and pipe and run through the latter. Handles may be installed to aid very young children. The approxi mate cost is $1.25. STATE HIGHWAYS CLEAN-UP MAY 10 Youths and Adults to Join Work Approved by Governor and Other Ofticiuls. Eugene, April 26. (Special.) Spring cleaning for Oregon high ways has been set for May 10, when Boy Scouts, school children, service clubs and civic organizations of all kinds will turn out to clear the road ways of rubbish. Backed by Gov ernor Albin W. Norblad, state su perintendent of schols C. A. How ard, and other state officials, the Oregon Federation of Garden Clubs has instigated the Highway Clean up day, which it hopes to make annual. Mrs. Jessie M. Honeyman of Eugene is chairman of the move ment, and is assisted by Mrs. A. E. Rockey, Portland, while Mrs. G. T. Valliant, Oswego, is president of the federation. Calling on all civic organizations in the state of Oregon to aid in this clean-up day, Governor Norblad stated, "I believe that Oregon faces a real task in preserving the nat ural beauty spots along the high ways, which make accessible Ore gon's vast forest regions, the great plains, the valleys, the snow capped mountains, the wonderful fishing streams, the ocean and beaches, and the one thousand and one wonders of the state, one of the principal methods of adding to these beauty spots is to assist in keeping them clean. May this splendid movement not last for just a day, but continue the entire year. I commend it most heartily to the people of Oregon." The highway commission, the park commission officials, the for estry service, and the Oregon State Motor association have already promised cooperation in the project while volunteer offers of help are coming in every day in larger num bers, according to Mrs. Honeyman. In order that every possible mile of highway can be covered, the corps of workers will be organized under a uniform plan which is now being outlined by the committee. Each county will be organized with a central headquarters committee of five strong community leaders, who will choose their subordinates. As the dead rubbish is cleared away, the state highway trucks will gather up the piles. Comedy to be Staged By Lexington Seniors "What I'd like to know is, what Wilton Crossley. heir to the Cross ley fortune, means by masquerading as a hired man and what he ex pects to gain by it!" angrily ex claims Aunt Lou Farness, in the three-act comedy, "Watch Your Step, Wilton," which is to be pre sented Saturday evening, April 26, at the school auditorium by the Lexington high school senior class. Nor is It probable that Aunt Lou will be alone In her query, when the play Is staged. Those who watch the unfolding of this comedy are expected to enjoy the situations which occur when the tables are turned and the haughty Creighton family become the servants of their former hired man. The seniors, desirous of making as fine a class gift to the school as possible, urge that all that can do so attend the production, for the funds raised are to be used for that purpose.

Local Concern Adopts Novel Advertising Inaugurating a plan of advertis ing that establishes a precedent lo cally, the Heppner Garage has start ed the publication of a regular weekly column to be known from now on as "Free Air." The col umn will contain a riot of humor and comment that is certain to hold the keen interest of every reader of this paper, according to Dean T. Goodman of that company. Mr. Goodman, commenting fur ther on this new advertising feature stated, "It has been our observa tion for some time that advertising copy as is offered in practically every newspaper, concentrates too much on the merchandising angle. The entire effort is to sell, sell, sell. The public surely must tire of this use of printer's ink, and it is with that idea in mind that we hope to add a little seasoning to our adver tising in order to hold the reader interest of our friend3 and custom ers. We will comment on people and things locally and elsewhere. Where names are mentioned, it will be in the spirit of .good humor and with the purpose of offering good wholesome fun."
