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,

One of the cleverest entertain
ments given here for some time was

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

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.

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

along the middle of the road in
front of you at about ten miles

At this Juncture, apropos of noth

Eat More Lamb-Use More Wool
The nation-wide campaign under way during the month
of February to increase the consumption of lamb and wool
products throughout the country is one of vital concern to
Morrow County. It will be of extreme benefit to one of
the county's largest basic industries. This bank heartily
endorses the campaign and urges Morrow County people
to stand loyally behind the movement.
