U. OF 0. PRESIDENT
IES POLICY
Dr. Hall Addresses Dads,
Mothers, Alumni at
Meeting Monday.
START STUDY GROUP
Mrs. W. P. Mahoney is Local Head;
State Oflicerg and Dean Powers
Have Part on Program.
That the University of Oregon
may have a background of tradi
tions, ideals and those spiritual val
ues that go to make up character,
Dr. Arnold Bennett Hall, president,
told a group of forty mothers and
dads of university students, alumni
and friends at the Episcopal par
ish house Monday evening, that the
"Mothers" and "Dads" organiza
tions were not a mere fad but a
part of a real administrative pro
gram, the effect of which has al
ready been felt on the campus life.
Dr. Hall headed a party of six
persons who visited Heppner on a
tour of principal cities in the in
terest of promoting mothers and
dads associations. Other members
of the party were Mrs. Walter M.
Cook, president of the state Oregon
Mothers association; Mrs. J. F. Hill,
president of the Portland Oregon
Mothers; Mrs. F. W. Bond of Pen
dleton, state vice president; Mrs.
Paul Ager,- executive secretary of
the association, and Alfred Powers,
dean of the university extension
division.
Textbook is Popular.
The meeting was arranged by
Mrs. W. P. Mahoney, acting for the
mothers and dads, and W. R. Poul
son for the alumni. The program
included a dinner at 6:30 o'clock,
prepared by ladies of the Episcopal
church and served by members of
the local school faculty; vocal solos
and a vocal duet by Miss Esther
Wood, director of music in the
Heppner schools, and Laurel Beach
of Lexington, with Miss Helen Fal
coner, accompanist; a short, Inspir
ing talk by Mrs. Cook; the address
by Dr. Hall, and a message from
Dean Powers. Mothers met with
the visiting ladies at the adjourn
ment of the dinner session, and
Mrs. Mahoney was put in charge of
a local Oregon Mothers study group.
This group will use a book describ
ing the Oregon Mothers and Dads
moement, unique at the unlerslty,
which has gained world-wide circu
lation and popularity. Mrs. Mahon
ey invites any ladies Interested to
join the group whether or not they
have children attending the univer
sity. 0
In outlining the administrative
policy, Dr. Hall named five projects
being undertaken for character
building at the university of which
the mothers and dads movement is
the fifth. He named first the se
lection of faculty members who will
provide a high type of leadership
besides being well versed In their
'particular subjects. To get this
type of Instructor it is necessary to
do considerable "scouting" and to
locate them during their college
years, as every university president
in the country Is looking for In
structors of the same type and Ore
gon is not able to compete effective
ly on the "open market" from a
salary standpoint.
Promotes Art Appreciation.
Stimulation of participation In ac
tivities by the undergraduate was
named as the second project, to de
velop a sense of responsibility, pro
prietorship, and qualities of leader
ship among the students. He stress
ed development of appreciation for
good literature, art and music, as
the third project, to create a desire
for the finer things of life. Selec
tion of freshman courses, looking
to guidance of pupils to a desire
for the nobler things, and to help
entering students to reap the most
profitable results from their studies,
he cited as the fourth project.
The dads and mothers movement
fits into the administrative policy
by promoting a closer contact be
tween home and student, thus es
pecially aiding freshmen in orient
ing themselves among brand new
surroundings at a time Dr. Hall de
clared to be the most critical per
iod In the child's life.
Hoard's Work Cited.
Dr. Hall touched briefly on the
work of the state board of higher
education, which he said is compos
ed of capable men who are attack
ing their job Intelligently. Mem
bers of the board are now occupied
with surveys looking to economical
and elilclent administering of the
state schools, and he Is confident
this will be the result, at the same
time eliminating the use of state
schools as a political football. That
no reduction in millage for educa
tional purposes can reasonably be
expected, he asserted to be true, due
to constantly Increased demands be
ing made on the resources of the In
stitutions by ever larger studont
bodies and more refined educational
tastes, In line with the American
desire for bettor things In the home
and elsewhere, People would not
think of returning to the habits of
home life prevailing In 1914, nor
can they reasonably expect the edu
cational Institutions to return to the
status then existing.

EDUCATION TREND
NOTED BY SPEAKER
Dr. J. R. Jewel, O. S. C, Tells
Lions of Change in Measure
Of an Educated Man.
In the last few decades no Insti
tution in America has undergone a
more profound change than educa
tion, declared Dr. J. R. Jewel of
Oregon State college in an address
before the Lions club Monday. In
the good old days what was good
enough for one was good enough
for all, Dr. Jewel pointed out, and
brother and sister were given the
same subjects, and the one who
made the better grades was consid
ered the better educated.
"If one were to ask who is the
best educated person in this com
munity, he would probably receive
many different names. And if one
were to inquire why the person
named Is the best educated, the an
swers might be rather amusing."
The measure of an educated person
has changed materially In the last
few years, said Dr. Jewel, who rec
ognized the person who Is the best
equipped to do the thing he is at
tempting to do as being the best
educated.
That in effect is what the modern
school of education is attmepting
to do, he said. Pupils are drawn
out In those subjects for which they
show preference and special adapt
ability, in order to prepare them to
do better those things which they
choose to do. He cited as an ex
ample of the old erroneous theory
of a well educated person, a certain
man whom he had occasion to know
quite well who was graduated with
honors in Greek from an eastern
university. The family was proud
of that man. He was considered
to be well educated. But that man
chose farming as a profession and
made a complete failure of it He
was not equipped to do the thing
he chose to do.
Dr. Jewel's talk, feature of the
luncheon program, was spiced with
witticisms throughout and received
hearty applause from his listeners.
He was made available to the club
by being In the city for teachers
institute, in which he took a prom
inent part. Laurel Beach of Lex
ington favored with vocal numbers,
accompanied by Miss Helen Falcon
er, also of Lexington. E. F. Carle-
ton, secretary of the Oregon State
Teachers association, was also a
guest.
DESCRIBES PASSION FLAY.
Miss Lillian Allinger gave her re
view of the great Passion Play of
Oberammergau as she witnessed it
this summer while on her European
Journey, before a large and appre
ciative audience at the Methodist
church on Sunday morning laBt.
She recounted this experience In a
very attractive and Instructive man
ner.
Noah Clark of Eight Mile was In
the city for a short time today.

the order this week.

CITY EGG SUPPLY
LESSENED BY FIRE
Arnold Fieper Loses Fine Pullets,
Chicken House, in $1000 Blaze
On Farm Sunday Morning.
"Heppner's winter egg supply
went up in smoke." Thus announc
ed Arnold Pieper who farms in Pie
per canyon northeast of the city, in
telling of the fire which consumed a
new chicken house and 160 pullets
on his place about 10 o'clock Sun
day morning, netting him a loss in
monetary value of $1000.
Mr. Pieper at least hoped to sup
ply a good part of the local egg
market from his brood of White
Leghorn pullets which he obtained
as day-old chicks this spring and
had reared to the point where they
had just started producing. He had
moved the chickens but two days
previously into the recently con
structed winter quarters, to keep
their feet dry and otherwise facil
itate production in the egg factory,
the equipment for which he believ
ed to be quite modern. That every
thing was in shape to start produc
tion on a quantity basis was evi
denced, he said, by the mass of
cooked eggs found amidst the
wreckage. From his fine poultry
flock, We now has but one surviv
es.
Mr. Pieper said the fire was caus
ed by either rats or chickens
scratching out some matches, stor
ed with winter supplies in a pile
of sawdust adjacent to the chicken
house. He was absent at the time,
and his young son announced the
fire to Mrs. Pieper In words some
thing to this effect, "Mamma, what's
the fire burning out there for?
Fire Permits No Longer
Necessary in Forest
People going Into this division of
the Umatilla National forest now
are not required to have fire per
mits, announces F. H. Wehmeyer,
district ranger at Heppner. The re
cent rains have alleviated the dan
ger of setting out fires to such ex
tent as to make issuing of permits
unnecessary.
Mr. Wehmeyer says the district
has been very fortunate this sea
son, especially with the extreme
dryness of the forest, in not having
any extensive fires. Some forty
fires all told were reported with the
largest burning over 10 acres and
this was outside the national forest
boundary.

Heppner then began to get or
ganized and until the final whistle
no great odds were shown by either
team. Only once did Heppner ser
iously threaten in Lexington terri
tory. Crocket Sprouls, quarter, re
ceived a neat toss from Shuirman,
half, and raced seventy yards to the
ten yard line before he was downed
by Lane. The ball was lost on downs
and Lex kicked out of danger.
Both teams showed good timing
and teamwork for the amount of
practice, which in the case of Hepp
ner was nil, as the whole team had
not been together until an hour be
fore the game. Next Sunday Lex
is slated to play Arlington on the
Lex field, and Saturday, the 18th,
they will mix it again with Heppner.

New Creamery Building
Will Rise Immediately
W. Claude Cox, manager of the
Morrow County Creamery company,
and Clair Leannah Cox, his wife,
have awarded the contract for con
struction of a modern reinforced
concrete building to house the
creamery on the lot recently pur

a boiler room, 20x24 feet, will have
2400 square feet of floor space. Its

plans of what to him is an ideal
arrangement. The business of the
creamery has expanded yearly since

'AUNT LUCIA' DATES
SET FOROCT. 21-22
Lions Start Hard Work
On Community Play
Of College Life.
150 PEOPLE INCLUDED
Lead Parte Picked; Men's Glee
Club, Flapper Chorus, Baby
Pageant Will Appear.
A week from this coming Tues
day and Wednesday nights, October
21 and 22, the famous collegiate
comedy, "Aunt Lucia," will be stag
ed at the high school auditorium
under the auspices of the Lions
club. The committee from the club
met last night with the director and
started work immediately on the
selection of the cast proper. It
promises to be the biggest home
talent ever given in this community
and includes a cast of more than
150 local people. It is a burlesque
comedy of American cgllege life
and has a number of hilarious com
edy spots. The show has been
staged throughout the middle west
and has been a tremendous success
wherever played.
Has College Setting.
The play proper deals with the
homecoming of Bula Bula college
and the setting of the show is a
fraternity drawing room. The whole
story revolves around the school,
anxiously awaiting the arrival of
an old maid, Lucia Wakefield, whom
they hope will donate enough mon
ey for a new football stadium.
Jerry Watson, played by W. R.
Poulson, one of the college boys,
with the help of his two room
mates, Dick and George, played by
Stanley Reavis and Paul Marble,
dresses himself as an old lady for
the entertainment of his fellow fra
ternity brothers. While in this out
fit he is mistaken for Lucia Wake
field from Florida and is introduced
as such all over the campus. Once
in this dilemma it Is impossible for
him to explain without getting in
bad so he is carried on throughout
the story masquerading as Lucia
Wakefield when in reality he is
Jerry Watson.
Love Scenes Comical.
Around this fake "Aunt Lucia"
are the fun and comical situations
of the play. The "Big Butter and
Egg" man from Omaha, played by
Claude Cox, falls in love with her
and proposes to her, as does Pro
fessor Gaddis and Collins, the fath
er of Dick. Then there are the
two freshmen, played by Earl Gor
don and Raymond Ferguson, who
find out that college life isn't all it's
cracked up to be, and furnish a
lot of laughs with their crazy
pranks.
Besides the play proper there are
a number of special features, such
as the men's glee club, the famous
flapper chorus of Bula Bula college.
the baby pageant and the girls' cho
rus. All these will be announced
later in detail, so watch closely. All
in all Aunt Lucia is a well rounded
production, so start planing on com
ing to see her in person on October
21 and 22.
Bishop Remington and
Company Visit Heppner
Those attending the potluck sup
per at the parish house on Tuesday
evening in honor of Bishop and
Mrs. Remington and their company,
had a very enjoyable time, reports
Rev. B. Stanley Moore, missionary-
in-charge of All Saints Episcopal
church. The meal was fine and sat
isfying, followed by singing led by
Mr. Moore of popular and some
of the old time songs everybody
knows. Bishop Remington gave
entertaining word pictures of his
experiences in Europe, from which
journey he but recently returned.
Rev. Mr. Bartlett of the National
Council of the church told of the
great work throughout the world,
stressing the fact that his church
was seeking for young men and
women who will later become lead
ers of their peoples, and how suc
cessful this has been all over the
world; the creating of native lead
ers in both church and state wher
ever the work is carried on. The
Ven. Archdeacon Creasey told of his
success in raising funds for the ad
