Editorial.
Besides merely eating, drinking,
and being merry there should be
a thought in our minds about the
first Thanksgiving and what the
Pilgrims gave to us.
Thanksgiving what does that
word mean to us? Oh a big tur
key, dressing, food of all sorts with
many goodies.
Perhaps we have fun but it's
doubtful whether we have as much
exoitement any gayety as the pil
grims manifested. They had few
luxuries but were grateful for their
few. Few of us are really thankful
for what we have, but in this year
of need let's really think about how
many things we have to be happy
for when we attack a large drumstick.
host and Gladys Cason, hostess.
"Ye Merrie Stenos" of the ad
vanced secretarial training class
are attending other classes to ob
serve and take down the conversa
tion by shorthand notes.
The typing classes were supposed
to have completed the first three
hurdles in their contest on the
18th.
Regular practice of the junior
class is now in progress under the
direction of Miss Btraughan. The
play will be given some time next
month.
Some of the students In clothing
one class have completed and hand
ed in their first problem for the
year's work. These articles of clo
thing are displayed in the sewing
room.
Some of the students In junior
English worked for extra credit
last week by handing in any news
they could secure. The maximum
number was not less than five news
stories or a rate of one a day.
Underclassmen Hold Party
The freshmen and sophomores
held the freshman return party last
Friday night. About all of the
students were present. Doughnuts
and cider were served.
Up to this year all of the classes
held one big party, but due to the
large number it is hard to make
the party a success, so here after
the freshmen and sophomores will
have their party first, and the jun
iors and seniors will hold their
party later.
Boosters Are Active.
The committee on the organiza
tion of the Booster club has finally
completed its investigation of the
questionnaires. A list of those eli
gible to belong to the club will be
posted Monday. There will be fifty
members. Ten more will be eligi
ble to join In the spring.
Associate members Include mem
bers of the pep band, football, bas
ketball teams, and the managers.
More upper classmen have been en
rolled than lower classmen.
Since the membership is not com
plete, many members of the high
school will have an opportunity to
become eligible by entering into all
school activities with a cooperative
spirit. This applies especially to
lower classmen who have two or
three year yet in school.
Squad Limited to 20.
Basketball practice will start
Monday. The number of candidates
for the squad has been limited to
20 men. This limiting of the num.
ber of candidates is done in order
that the coach will be able to ban
die them on the basketball floor.
Those wishing to turn out have
to leave their names with Gene
Mikesell.
Grade News
Miss Leathers, the seventh grade
teacher, was ill most of last week.
Mrs. Gerald Slocum, a former grade
school teacher, took her pace dur
ing that time.
The first grade is making attrac
tive Thanksgiving decorations for
their room.
The second grade is making
Thanksgiving picture booklets and
Is studying pictures of the Pilgrims
going to church and the return of
the Mayflower,
Jfhllip Conn and Jimmie aBrratt
will spend their Thanksgiving va
cation in Portland.
Sea plant and snails have come
to life in the aquarium with the
goldfish in the second grade.
The children of the third grade
entertained their mothers Wednes
day afternoon. They told of the
Pilgrim's first Thanksgiving day
and sang songs.
The fourth grade is working on
a circus project They are hoping
to have a sand table made by one
of the boys for this.
Melbro Cox came back to school
Monday after being absent for
some time.
needs at least one meat ration a
day, cooked in the manner he likes
best The working man needs more
meat than the housed man. I do
not permit heavy meats for the eve
ning meal.
The adult human body needs one
or two eggs daily, cooked as the in
dividual prefers.
I prefer cooked fruits to raw
fruits, as a rule. From the produc
er to the consumer these days, may
pass the viand through a dozen
pairs of tmore or less dirty hands.
It takes more than a casual rinsing
to remove germs; cooking does the
work. Stewed dried fruits are my
absolute favorites for winter eating.
The fruit portion of the meal,
roughly speaking, may furnish from
one-third to one-half the volume of
the ration. We, as a nation, eat
too little of well-selected fruits.
We do not give enough attention
to the volume of water taken. A
patient weighing 150 pounds should
drink a total of a half-gallon of wa
ter daily. Don't await thirst, if you
are sedentary. Get the habit of
drinking methodically.
I am often asked, "Shall I drink
milk?" This by people who are
merely run-down from over-strain
of affairs. I ask, "do you like it?"
"Yes." "Then drink it" But if the
answer is, "No, I can't say I like it,
but have been told It is good for
me." Then I say,. "take a glass now
and then, but abandon it if it causes
distress." "Trial and error " you
know.

From the Melting; Pot
There are some points I might
call them rules that I feel pretty
safe in abiding by, subject to very
moderate amending for special
cases. I will mention a few.

The big crusher is ready for op
eration at the main road camp on
Heppner-Spray highway, and the
spreading of the surfacing material
is going on with favorable weather
conditions. During the past week
there was a fall of some six Inches
of snow on the summit of the
mountains, but this soon disappear
ed. A number of teams with dump
wagons as well as many trucks will
be utilized in spreading the gravel.
Just now we would not advise trav
eling this road unless the chains
are on the cars, there being some
pretty tough stretches of gumbo to
get through. Beyond the road camp
for some three miles, the surface is
well packed by the traffic out to
Spray, but some six or seven miles
from the camp toward Heppner the
going is not so good) but can be
negotiated with chains.

Velle Meiner of Portland.
Returning home over the Oregon
Califomia and Sherman highways
Saturday from Prineville, the edi
tor noted very little traffic and very
few cars and trucks coming and
going. This is in keeping, no doubt,
with the stringency of the times.
At Redmond vast herds of fine tur
keys were in evidence and at many
farms the birds were being prepar
ed for shipment to outside markets.
Some 1500 head of cattle were on
feed at the big ranches near Hay
creek crossing where there seemed
to be an abundance of hay. These
cattle will go to market in Febru
ary and March, we were told.
Charles Klinger, extensive turkey
raiser of the Alpine neighborhood,
was doing business in the city Mon
day afternoon. He has been get
ting some of his turkeys off to mar
ket, but in limited quantities only,
as the prices offered are a bit low.
Heavy rains have also been a hin
drance in getting the birds dressed,
but this is of minor importance, as
the results to the grain that is
coming up will be an offset.
Leonard Schwarz departed for
Prineville on Friday evening and
for a short time will be in charge
