offensive from the opening bell.

71st Birthday Occasion
For Pleasant Surprise
Albert Osmin, pioneer ranchman
of Balm fork, was 71 years young
on Sunday, and he was not the only
person that remembered the date of
his anniversary. Other members of
the family thought of the event and
had arranged to give him a com
plete surprise. Relatives and friends
gathered early on Sunday at the
Osmin home, and if Albert had not
remembered just how old he was,
he surely came to himself when in
vited to the dining room where the
tables were spread with a bountiful
supply of good things to eat, the
centerpiece being the big birthday
cake ornamented with 71 candles.
Following the dinner, the afternoon
was spent in visiting and the play
ing of games, the guests remaining
until the evening hour.
Mr. Osmin came to Morrow coun
ty as a young man 48 years ago.
One of his early chums, who had
arrived here a year earlier, was D.
B. Stalter, who for a great many
years ran a ranch up Balm fork
beyond the Osmin place. They have
been great friends all these years
and are the only remaining mem
bers of a large number of young
fellows coming to this section at
about the same time, who in the
former years were cronies, enjoy
ing the pleasures and enduring the
hardships of those who were instru
mental in the development of this
community and overcoming pioneer
conditions.
Those present at the party were
Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Casebeer and
children, Mr. and Mrs. John Berg
strom and daughter, Mr. and Mrs.
Sam McCullough, Mr. and Mrs.
Chas. Osmin and daughter, Mr. and
Mrs. Claude Knowles and children.
Mrs. Mary Kirk and daughter Mary,
Messrs. Dave McCulluogh, Dan B.
Stalter, Roy Holcomb and Lewis,
Alton and Leo Osmin. Mrs. Chas.
Osmin and Mrs Claude Knowles
were hostesses.
Attend American Legion Auxil
iary benefit dance, Saturday, Elks
Temple.
SHEARING UNDER WAY.
Sheep shearing is under way at
several ranches in the county and
is expected to become general with
in a very short time. From reports
reaching this paper, there has been
no general agreement as between
flockmasters and shearers, fixing
the price, and the prospects are that
there will be a range in price from
12'4 to 15 cents, plant charges add
ed. Shearing is on now at the
Krebs Bros, ranch, Cecil, and also
at some other points in the north
end of the county. It is not proba
ble that there will be any particu
lar controversy over the shearing
operations in Morrow county, but
it appears that each flockmaster is
proceeding towards the best price
that he can obtain.
ROAD TO AID BUSINESS.
Claude Cox, manager of Morrow
County Creamery company, return
ed to Heppner last Thursday after
a business trip to Spray, Kimberley,
Monument, Hamilton, Long Creek
and Fox valley. Many dairymen in
that section expressed a desire to
send their products to Heppner as
soon as the Heppner-Spray road is
completed. A number of producers
in those districts have made cream
shipments here since Mr. Cox made
his trip.
Attend American Legion Auxil
iary benefit dance, Saturday, Elks

DANCE BEING ARRANGED.
Arrangements for the Easter ben
efit dance had an important part
in the meeting of the American
Legion auxiliary Tuesday evening
at the Legion hall. The group voted
to send 10 cents per capita to the
national rehabilitation fund. Mrs.
Helen Christenson and Mrs. W. C.
Cox were initiated into membership
in the organization. Mrs. J. D.
Bauman and Mrs. Harvey Bauman
were hostesses for the meeting.
TRAFFIC LANE PAINTED.
A pedestrian's zone for crossing
Main street at the Tum-A-Lum
Lumber company corner for the
protection of school children and
others, was marked off with yellow
painted lines Friday by S P. Devin
city marshal. He also moved the
"slow" signs to the center of blocks
on each side of the intersection.
Making this change gives motorists
quicker warning of the school
crossing.
TEETH INSPECTED.
Dr. E. V. Prime, Hermiston den
tist, assisted by Miss Edith Stal
lard, county nurse, inspected the
teeth of school children at Board-
man and Irrigon las tweek, being

gon Friday. If sufficient interest In
corrective dental work is shown by
parents of children inspected, Dr,
Prime will establish an office at
each of these communities for
short time.

'HEN itinerant printing salesmen call
on you for your printing needs, they
generally quote you a price on a large
quantity. The price seems low when
based on a large order. Too often the prospect
compares this price per piece on a large order
with the price per piece on a smaller order from
the local printer. Naturally the price of the local
plant seems high in comparison.
Before contracting for your printing needs,
let us give you figures on the same quantity and
quality of printing that the visiting salesman
offers. Keep your dollars at home and you will
see them again.
