Rice spent a few hours in Heppner Saturday from the Arte sian Well farm. Plenty of rain out that way the past week to bring up the fall sown grain, all of which had to be planted in the dust Far mers generally believe there is suf flcint moisture now to insure the proper start of the wheat before freezing weather sets in.

Anabel Turner Glavey, Claire Assistant Editor .. Reporters: John Phelan, Beth Wright, Lora Gil- man, Marie Scrivner, Florence Moyer, Anson Rugg and Mary Driscoll. Editorial "Never trouble another for what you can do yourself." Jefferson. To be more Independent should be the aim of high school students. Some of us, seemingly, can be com pared to the sponge, a parasite which depends upon the aid of oth er sources for its living without any exertion on its own part. Pupils should do their own work without "sponging off" others for their les sons and assignments. No one likes to be bothered doing others' work, as well as his own. Students should pay strict atten tion to the assignments given in or der to avoid troubling others. The habit of attentive interest will please the teachers, and will maky your work easier. Independence benefits others as well as yourself. Let us all cultivate independence. Cooper, Wallie Banks, Ethel Boke, Mary Brooks and Joe Bullitt.

Heppner, handicapped by Injur ies received In the Pendleton game, trampled Hermiston gridsters Fri day afternoon on Rodeo field 6-0. The fighting Irish showed their su periority in the first few innings of play, crashing Hermiston's line for constant gains to the twenty yard line. Hermiston then received the ball on downs and punted to the center of the field where it kept changing from one team to the oth er until the second quarter. In the next quarter Hermiston startetd a drive which placed the ball on the one-yard line. Hermis ton lost the ball on downs fifteen yards from their objective after having been thrown for several losses. Heppner took the ball to its own forty-yard line. Failing to gain further they punted to Her miston s thirty. The opponents tried two futile line smashes and then punted; C. Thomson made a splen did catch on his own thirty-five yard line and raced untouched to the goal line. Furlong's try for point through the center of the fighting line failed. In the third quarter neither team was able to keep up a sustained drive for a score. The fourth quarter was played between the forty-yard markers. Heppner, although having posses sion of the ball most of the time, was unable to score. Jim Furlong, fullback, was a con. slstent ground gainer, and Lyle Cowdrey, center, stopped a good share of Hermiston s plays. Line-up: Heppner Hermiston L.

That promise was kept and today there are thou sands of farm cooperatives functioning successful ly, and from which the farmer is profiting and will continue to profit much more in the future. He promised tariff protection for farm prod ucts and kept that promise and the farmer is receiving from eight to eighteen cents a bushel more for wheat of the same grade than are the neighboring farmers across the Canadian bor der. That applies also to corn, to live stock and other farm products. While American prices are too low they are higher than the prices on the same products in any other exporting country. He promised protection for American in dustry and American wage-earners, and he kept that promise when he secured the passage of reasonable tariff schedules that are not ex orbitant but prevent the dumping of merchan dise made by cheap labor in impoverished Europe. He promised reduction in the general oper ating costs of government. While extraordi nary conditions have called for extraordinary expenditures to meet them, the regular oper ating costs have been reduced by half a billion dollars a year. He did that despite the contin ued opposition of a Democratic House of Rep resentatives led by Democratic Vice-Presidential Candidate Garner. He has continuously requested the Con gress for authority to work out a reorganiza tion of governmental departments, the elimina tion of those not essential to the welfare of the people, or that duplicate the work of other de partments. A Democratic House of Represent atives, led by Democratic Vice-Presidential Candidate Garner, has persistently refused such authority. President Hoover has kept every promise he made the American people when he received their votes four years ago, and In addition to keeping his promises he has supplied a superb leadership for the nation during the most serious financial and industrial depression since the close of the Civil war; has met the situation squarely; has planned boldly but wisely for national recovery, and has set us again on a safe road to better conditions. Knowing the re-election of Herbert Hoover means better prices for farm products, more jobs for the unemployed, less cost of government, quicker financial and industrial recovery, we urge the people of this community to cast their votes for a proven leader PRESHMNT ME1BEET HVEI l'uld Advertisement by Morrow County Ifa'pnhllcan Central Committee, Jon.
