Mr. and Mrs. John Anglin and
daughter Rachel, Mr. and Mrs. Har
lan Devin and son Glen and Miss
Catherine Healey motored to Yaki
ma last Sunday and report consid
erable damage done by the recent
winds over there. The wind took
the whole top of the state fair
ground grandstand off and moved
a one fair sized barn 50 feet, turning
it completely arouna. Many large
trees were uprooted and everything
in general looks a pale, sick color
from the dust. Mr. Anglin reports
a very enjoyable trip. Mrs. Anglin
will remain in Yakima for a couple
of weeks looking after business in
terests and visiting with her moth
er and sister.

Luck was not so good for some
of the local fishermen Sunday. Su

ter Smead are each limping around
because of slipping and falling
while attempting to get at the finny
tribe from some of the more inac

streams, the former receiving a se
verely wrenched hip that has made
it quite painful getting about, while
Mr. Smead received injuries to the
right leg.

MRS. A. T. HEREIM. Correspondent
It was not an attack of ague that
prevented a report of the neighbor
hood gossip last week, but an acute
attack of arthritis and temporary
lack of telephone facilities.
The operretta, "The Dream
Boat," was given by the grade pu
pils on April 17 and the result of
much trianing on the part of the
teachers was shown by the excel
lence of the production. The cos
tumes were colorful; the fairies and
gnomes, the queen, the pictures in
the picture book, the scribe, in fact
each and everyone who took part
are deserving of mention but space
does not permit. The story center
ed around the eight children, Max
lne Machan, Mildred Ayers, Edith
Nickerson, Mary Smith, Edwin
Rainvllle, Franclne Knig, Stanley
Partlow and Francis Titus who took
a trip in The Dream Boat, and the
play was a portrayal of their ad
ventures. The pirates and Indians
were gorgeously arrayed, and The
Maker of Dreams, the sailor, the
herald, all added to the ensemble.
Puck with his clever costume was
an interesting feature and gives
promise of developing a fine voice,
as do several of the other players.
Readings by Helen Mead and John
Mclntyre were much enjoyed be
tween acts.
Before the operetta the school or
chestra made Its Initial bow to the
public and was very cordially re
ceived. This orchestra was organ
ized by Orla Brown, the seventh
and eighth grade teacher, and when
one remembers that but three or
four of the members had ever had
any training In reading music, the
results of the work seem remark
able. Selma Ayers played the ac
companiment and the strains of
"Old Black Joe," "Yankee Doodle,"
etc., brought much applause. Paul
Mead played hia baritone in the
medley and although he had never
had one before last fall he played
with ease and aplomb. Mr. Brown
is not returning next year but it
is hoped that his successor will be
able to cary on the work so nicely
started.
A dance was given Saturday, Apr.
18, for the benefit of the baseball
club. As there had not been a dance
for some time there was a large
crowd and enough money was rais
ed to purchase baseball parapher
nalia. Some real thrilling games
have been played this season with
neighboring towns. On Sunday, the
local team defeated Hermiston 15 to
12.
When the school orchestra played
"America" the other night we look
ed at our neighbors and wondered
whether we should stand or remain
seated, and finally when part of the
audience stood, we did also. On in
quiry we learn that when a medley
is being played it Is not necessary
to arise even though the national
anthemn is being played. This, by
the way, according to decision of
congress, is "The Star Spangled
Banner."
The Macombers were here from
Condon last week end visiting rela
tives. The Farleys, Slevins, M. Healeys,
M. Mulligan and Johnny McNamee
were Boardman residents who at
tended the funeral services of the
little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Mike

Stanley Hatch and his father

is contemplating taking up a home
stead on some of the new land be
ing developed there.

end with her parents at Union. She
met her mother in La Grande where

is that on the Cramer ranch.
Mrs. Nick Faler was the honor
guest at a lovely afternoon party
Tuesday at the hotel with the mem
bers and substitutes of the Bridge
club as guests. Mrs. Faler has
been one of the members of the club
and each presented her with a dain
ty handkerchief as a token of
friendship, prior to her departure
for Portland this week where she
will make her home for a time.
The afternoon was spent in playing
bridge with honors going to Mrs.
Ray Brown and Mrs. Guy Barlow.
Wasn't that a hummer of a storm
though? Large trees snapped off
like sticks. ,No great damage was
incurred here although telephone
service was disrupted and travel
was difficult. The most interesting
part was the housecleaning the ma
trons were forced to do after the
blow was over.
The grade children are deriving
benefit from the newly installed
shower baths at the gym, and it is
a delight to the kiddies and a help
to the mothers for the majority of
the homes here are without bath
rooms and it means hauling out the
family washtub, heating water, etc.,
in addition to supervising the bath
to see that ears and neck are not
omitted in the ablutions.
The Turner family has moved to
the Humphrey place from lone and
the members are new residents in
our community. The Ludemann
family is living in Lents temporar
ily. They were the owners of the
ranch and sold their equity to Mr.
Turner.
Mrs. Lucy Rodgers, county super
intendent, and Miss Edith Stallard,
county nurse, attended the operetta
here. They are always welcome
visitors in Boardman.
We wonder if the local readers
are all aware of the excellent col
umn in each issue of the Gazette
Times written by Miss Palmiter of
the Heppner high school. Her col
umn is always timely with hints
and recipes appropriate to the sea
son. The school appreciated talks by
Mr. McMahon, traffic officer, and G.
A. Bleakman, county commissioner,
who visited the various schools in
the county last week.
The Home Economics club met
with Mrs. Lea Mead, although it
was the day of one of the most se
vere wind storms in the history of
the project there were fifteen lad
ies who ventured out and enjoyed
the delicious no-host luncheon
which characterizes the meetings of
the club.
Miss Ethel Beougher and sister
Alice were week-end guests at the

danced to the old time music play
ed by Mr. Smith, Mrs. Shane's fa
ther. The student body is planning a
dance for Saturday night This will
be held at the auditorium.
Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Allen and
sons and Mr. and Mrs. Truman Mes
senger and children were spending
the week end with relatives on the
project. Both families live in La
Grande.
Mrs. T. W. Keller of Portland
was here Monday on business and
was a guest at the Olson home. The
Kellers own part of the Crawford
place and the Irvin place.
. The Falers were given a pleasant
surprise party on Thursday evening
by the members of the Home Econ
omics club. The party was given at
the Channing home with seven ta
bles of "500." All had a most de
lightful evening and extended the
best of- wishes fo the Falers who
left on the 24th for Portland. The
Falers have been residents of the
pioject since the early pioneer days
and they will be greatly missed dur
ing their absence. Mrs. Faler has
taken an active part in the North
Morrow County fair ard has been
a member of the board for the last
few years. .
A family by the name of Vander
hoof has moved on the Hatch place.
They are from Heppner and have
three small children.
A wedding of much interest on
the project was that at Prosser on
Wednesday when Miss Emma Bea
verness and Tom Delano were uni
ted in marriage. The bride is the
sister of Mrs. Glen Machan and
came here a year and a half ago
from Kansas. The groom is one of
the Delano brothers who have made
their home on the extreme west end
of the project for many years, and
is well liked by everyone. The cou
ple will make their home on the
Delano ranch where they will wel
come their friends. They were giv
en a noisy charivari on Friday
night by a large crowd who were
treated to candy and cigars.
The Kings and the Marschats
were hosts Saturday night at a card
party at the Marschat home with
seven tables of "500" in play. Hon
ors were accorded to Mr. and Mrs.

A New York banker has figured
out that if six copper coins recently
unearthed, bearing the date of 600
yars B C, had been placed at com
pound interest since coined, the re
turns would have been immense.
How much? Well, it's past the
power of comprehension. The Am
erican value of these coins was only 6
cents, yet they would have earned at
compound interest during the past
2,500 years a ball of gold 62 times as
large as this earth, so the New Yoker
says.
