PAGE TWO HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, FEB. 12, 1931. BOARDMAN MRS. A. T. HEREIM. Correspondent Alfred Skoubo surprised friends when he came to work Monday, bringing a bride with him. He mar ried Miss Eda Furrer of Stanfteld on February 2 at Walla Walla, the ceremony being performed by a jus tice of the peace at the court house. They were accompanied by Ida May Isenisee and Chas. Andregg of Her- miston and Mr. and Mrs. Joe Baum- gartner of Stanfield. The newlyweds were given a charivari on Monday night at the I. Skoubo home where they will remain for a time. The eroom is a brother of A. and I. Skoubo and has been here at var ious times since coming to America from his home in Denmark several years ago. There was a large attendance at the February Silver Tea on Wed nesday at the church when the Mes- dames Kristensen, Hadley, Howell Graves, King, Strobel and Tyler were hostesses. Mrs. Hadley was unable to attend because of illness. Some routine business was transact ed and when a discussion of placing a back door in the church was had Mrs. Blayden said that Mr. Blayden had a door which he would not only contribute but would also put in place; then Mrs. Weston said they had steps they would contribute; so the question of a sink arose and Mrs. King appointed a committee to investigate the cost. The hostesses served a delicious lunch. The next meeting will be held Fri day, Feb. 20, instead of the usual Wednesday, as this is the Worlds Day of Prayer. A most interesting meeting is being arranged by Mrs. Miller. The meeting will be at the Messenger home. Mr. and Mrs. Buster Adams of Weiser, Idaho, were overnight guests at the home of their aunt and uncle, Mr. and Mrs. Shannon who live on the east end. Mr. and Mrs. Lester Uthey who have been visiting relatives here for several weeks returned to Yakima where the former will have charge of his father's fruit ranch this year. Boardman friends of Dorothy Is om were interested to hear of her recent marriage to George Kendler of Umatilla. Dorothy has been of much help io the North Morrow County fair for the past few years and also has a wide acquaintance through her work in 4-H clubs. The Home Economics club met Wednesday at the home of Mrs. H. V. Tyler with a good attendance. This club, an auxiliary of the grange, meets every two weeks and the members partake of "a no-host luncheon which always belies the prevalent talk of hard times. The luncheon Wednesday was no excep tion. Rev. and Mrs. W. O. Miller were visiting various parishioners on the project Friday. Rev. Mr. Miller has served as pastor in the local church for the past three years and has been one of the best liked in the history of the church. Both he and Mrs. Miller are liked by the church people as well as the non-church goers. Margaret Myers whose birthday is the 11th and Orthun Hereim's whose is the 7th, had a party to gether at the Hereim home Satur day, with the pupils of the primary room as guests. Outdoor games were followed by lunch at a gaily decorated table with red and white used for the individual candle hold ers. The Valentine place cards, miniature wheelbarrows and the candle-lighted cake as a centerpiece lent much color. Mesdames John son, Channing, Sunstand, Dilla bough and Rachel Johnson' assisted Mrs. Myers and Mrs. Hereim. L. C. Cooney was called to Condon Saturday because of the serious ill ness of his mother, Mrs. Mary E. Cooney, who has been very ill with heart trouble for some time. Mr. and Mrs. Bruno Kroon of La Grande, Mr. Kortge, Mrs, Fleck and Miss Mamie Fleck of The Dal les were visitors Sunday at the Lee Mead home. Mrs. Kroon and Miss Fleck are sisters, and Mrs. Fleck the mother, of Mrs. Mead. The Hereims were guests Sunday at the H. E. Waite home. A most enjoyable day was had with a most unusual climax, for Orthun, who ex perienced "the thrill that comes once in a lifetime," found a bill of large denomination while playing by the highway. This made the lad's small bank account grow very sud denly. Nate Macomber had all his teeth extracted on Thursday at Hermis ton. They had become loosened as a result of a touch of gas while overseas. Boardman has been well repre sented at the hospital at Herminton recently. Mrs. Lee Mead, Mrs. Glen Hadley and Ralph Skoubo all came home this week after stays of vary ing lengths there. The Ingaard Skoubo family seem to be having a series of disasters of late. The head of the house was ill with influenza but man-like in sisted on getting up to see about affairs on the farm. Going out to show the man about the disc, Mr. Skoubo accidentally stepped into the disc, wrenching his foot. On Saturday afternoon, Ralph, the youngest boy, was endeavoring to mount a horse while standing on a drill when the horse moved and the lad fell, breaking his leg. He was taken to Hermiston at once where Dr. Christopherson set the fracture. Much interest is being shown In church services this winter and each Sunday brings a large audi ence. At the meeting February 8 ten persons afllliated with the church, transferring their member ships from their former residences They were Mr. and Mrs. S. Russell Mr. and Mrs. George Wicklander and son George, Mr. and Mrs. Nick Faler, Mr. and Mrs. Surface and Mr. Hurst. Old-timers of Boardman will re gret to learn of the death of E. W. Mack, who erected some of the first buildings in Boardman. He had been conducting a pharmacy in New Meadows, Ida., but his death occur red In Weiser. The race between the East and West ends for membership has been 11 to the advantage of the East with prospect of the other side fur nishing the feed, but Mr. Farley, the West captain, by diligent soli citing has run up the score in his favor; so it is up to the East end to "rally round or be forced to treat Please give your dues to Mrs. Hereim, captain, or Mrs. Coats, treasurer, before the next meeting cf P. T. A., February 20. Mrs. Glen Machan gave a pleas ant dinner Sunday for her sister, Miss Emma Beaverness, whose birthday anniversary it was. Guests were Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Skoubo, David Johnson and Claude Myers and family. Mrs. B. B. Lewis left last week for a visit with relatives "in Berkeley, Calif. Boardman people are pleased to learn that Miss Edith M. Stallard has been retained by the county court for another year as county nurse. One of the cleverest entertain ments given here for some time was that given Saturday night by mem bers of the juvenile grange at the lllllflllllllllllltlllllMlllllllllllllllllllllllllllltlllltllllllll IFreeAirl school. A large crowd attended and more than $40 was cleared. The various members of the Oregonian comic section put in an appearance and all were greeted with shouts of laughter. The marriage of Uncle Bim and the Widow Zander was solemnized with Miss Shellenberger taking the bride's part and Marvin Ran.-iier that of the bridegroom, and Delbert Machan as the minister. The Rinky Dinks were there in all their glory. Rachel, Skeezix, Uncle Walt, Perry, all were present in person and brought an evening of pleasure to the crowd. Boardman audiences are quite appreciative of home talent and this was no excep tion. Deibert Johnson and his friend, Sam Stirrup, were here Sunday. They are employed by the Western Union and are moving from Cold Springs to Wallula this week. Mrs. Glen Hadley suffered a re lapse of the flu and was forced to spend several days at the Hermis ton hospital last week. MOARDMAN SUN-DHL. Meadowlarks.

Goodman from his private sanctum down at the Hepp ner Garage.) February 12, 1931. HOW DO YOU DO, FOLKS. Some folks pay their bills when due; others, when overdue; some never do. How do you do, folks, how do you do? Jap: "How is it Nick has two caddies and you none?" Cal: "One's mine he keeps track of Nick's score for me." The altar is a place where a bach elor loses control of himself. "I put a friend of mine on his feet three times in the last five years." "That's nothing!

How about getting some of that fluid for the guy Who knocks his home town? In spite of the quiet winter the trend to GOODYEAR TIRES has not ceased. GOODYEAR builds nearly one-fourth of all the tires us ed in the United States. There is only one reason highest quality at lowest prices. 9 Charlie Vaughn, our staff poet, got this one in just before we went to press: The codfish lays a million eggs, And the helpful hen lays one; But the codfish doesn t cackle About the work she's done. And we scorn the codfish And the helpful hen we prize, Which indicates to you and me That it pays to advertise. m m m That being the one and only rea son we pay editor Crawford for this space each week. To advertise those GOODYEAR TIRES. Do you know that we have a mighty good fender repair man in our establishment? If you have bent or dented fenders on your car bring it in and see how cheaply we can straighten them out for you. m Speaking of these gangsters, we have never ceased to admire the strategy of the Chicago boy who fooled the police by continuing to fire, after he had run out of ammu nition. On the same subject, you know, of course, that an infern al machine is one that ambles along the middle of the road in front of you at about ten miles an hour. At this Juncture, apropos of noth ing at all, did the significant fact ever strike you that the stork is a bird with an exceptionally long bill? We conclude with one of ancient vintage that Is, however, really worth reviving: A certain fumily man, striving to shake an Indolent alarm clock Into action, dislodged from its interior a defunct cock roach, whereupon his infant prodi gy piped up: "No wonder It would n't go, dad. The engineer Is dead." As the chick Bald when the egg began to crack, "That let's me out."
