by Mrs. F. W. Turner of this city,
Mrs. Tally states that she is still
making her home at Albuquerque,
New Mexico, where she has been
for the past number of years. She
speaks of the depression, which
has been felt in that part of the
country much more this year; they
hardly knew it existed heretofore,
because of a heavy expenditure of
the government in constructing the
Middle Rio Grande Causeway, the
headquarters of the project being
at Albuquerque, giving work dur
ing the year to some 2000 people.
Mrs. Tally states that she and her
husband are very well; the latter
having improved greatly following
a recent surgical treatment She
extends greetings and best wishes
to all old friends at Heppner, and
hopes all may enjoy better times
throughout 1933.

Are high school assemblies of any
value to the students?
They give students practice in
public speaking, which will be very
beneficial to them later in life. A
program is now being carried out
by which each club and class is
held responsible for one assembly.
This gives the different groups a
chance to show others what they
are accomplishing. Also this will
arouse the interest of the students
in the school subjects represented
by the clubs. Assemblies not only
benefit the persons performing, but
they are also interesting and often
times educational to the audience.
This year we have had the privilege
of having several very capable out
side speakers.
The students conducting assem
blies now will probably be -helping
to conduct the different clubs and
lodges of Heppner In the future.
Student Council Meeting
The meeting was called to order
by June Anderson, student body
president, and the demerit system
planned at the last meeting, Jan
uary 27, was confirmed. This plan
Is to go into effect Immediately. In
this system the teacher takes down
the demerits and notifies the stu
dent or students receiving a demer
it or demerits of his deportment
grade at the end of each week.
Each demerit takes the student's
deportment grade down one-half
point; that is, one demerit takes
the grade from a 2 minus to a 3
plus and so on down the line. Five
demerits cancel a student's name
from the eligibility list, which
means that the student must take
all exams regardless of his grades.
The following things warrant de
merits:
Major: Cheating, throwing things,
scuffling, destroying property, talk
ing out of turn, bothering others,
skipping school, rudeness, unneces
sary tardiness, being sent from
class; minor: borrowing without
permission, removal of paper bas
ket chewing gum or eating candy,
moving unnecessarily, loafing tn
the halls.
Any other offense which the
teacher may deem serious enough
to warrant a demerit.
Student Body Assemblies Flanned
Starting tomorrow there are to
be regular student body assemblies
every other Friday. There will be
other assemblies, but these are sure.
The following organizations iwlll
put on the programs as they are to
occur: H Club, Booster Club, Home
Ec Club, Benzine Ring, Junior class,
sophomore class, Commerce Club,
freshman class, and senior class.

will be an initiation of some new
members of the H Club and the
presentation of the football letters.
Elections Held
All high school classes held mid
year elections last Wednesday noon
for officers. The election of the
presidents was of special signifi
cance because Mr. Bloom announc
