EDITORIAL
Many of the high school students
nave been neglecting to show their
thoughtfulness and friendship to
others who are sick and unable to
attend school and enjoy the spring
sunshine. Why not go and spend
a few minutes a day chatting and
talking to relieve the monotony?
Spring fever has got into the
bones and minds of most of the
students and they are beginning to
slacken up in their school work,
counting the days until the long
awaited April 15. Remember thou ;h
that school life isn't half so bad as
the life two of the boys of school
are leading lying in bed these beau
tiful spring days.
Do you enjoy the Friday after
noon programs? If you do you will
surely enjoy the out of school func
tions sponsored by it.
Loyalty to the school should come
before your other activities. You
should feel that you ought to put
school first above all. It needs the
support to keep it financially above
board.
Lets' pfut school functions first.
Teachers to La Grande.
A meeting for teachers of north
eastern Oregon held in La Grande
last Saturday was very successful.
Most of the Heppner teachers were
in attendance. There were several
prominent men on the program:
Dr. Jewell, dean of education of
Oregon; Mr. Howard, state super
intendent of schools; Mr. Inlow,
president of Eastern Oregon Nor
mal school. This meeting was en
larged to include grade and high
school teachers, being formerly for
principals and superintendents only.
Juniors Show Radio Talent
Anson Rugg gave the assemb v
a great big surprise last Friday dur
ing the Junior radio program. An
son was the most reverend Mr.
Hang Nails can you imagine It?
He sent out a most urgent call for
the ladies to all attend the egg
shower on Mrs. Oattleberry and ad
ded that "the ladies will meet Mon
day and lay eggs in the vestibule."
Roy Gentry made his appearance
in a wheel chair and the announc
er, Francis Nickeison, told the aud
ience that they were looking on the
haggard countenance of Professor
All-But-Gone (as if the audience
couldn't see that), eminent physical
culture expert. The professor lead
his radio fans in a group of setting
up exercises that made "of me the
man I am today." This statement
was followed by violent coughing
which left doubt in several minds
as to the prof's physical well being.
The local Eddie Cantor, Marvin
Morgan (we want Cantor); Bing
Crosby, who being absent was sub
stituted by Francis Nickerson; and
Rudy Valee. Matt Kenny, sang "We
Ate the Boloney."
Then Paul "Snooty" Phelan came
out on the platform and was intro
duced as the" Baron Munchausen.
The Baron told a story of a man
who had accidentally killed his lit
tle dog Fido; so he skinned the dog
and gave it to a neighbor, whom he
disliked very much, saying that the
dog was a possum. The neighbor
and his wife decided to go to the
country for a few days, and not
wishing the possum to spoil, they
gave it to Aunt Chloe, a colored
mammy, who had a reputation as
being a wonderful cook. Mr. Brown
was attracted by the smell of pos
sum and sweet 'taters as he walked
home that night so he stepped in
and had supper with Aunt Chloe.
When he had gorged and gorged he
asked Aunt Chloe where she got
such a fine fat possum and upon
finding out it was his dear depart
ed Fido, poor Mr. Brown stumbled
outside, and leaning weakly against
the door, gasped: "Fido, Fido, I
Nothing does
so
Trying days? Many steps?
A hundred and one things
to do? There is one aid
you can always count on!
The Telephone!
The Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company
(Business Office: '4 West "Willow Street Jieppner, Oregon
have called you many times but this
is once you are coming without call
ing." "And now little Hotsy Totsies you
are going to hear your own dear
Uncle John (Billy Thomson)." Un
cle John, famous bedtime story tell
er came out to the mike with a
bathrobe on and a lighted candle
in his hand and an unearthly grin
on his face. His story was some
thing like this: "And the wolves
jumped at little Red Riding Hood
and they tore off a leg, and they
tore off the other leg, and they
pulled off an arm, and they pulled
off the other arm, and they bit utt
her head, and they chewed her body
into bits, and there law poor little
Red Riding Hood, just one mess
of flesh and blood and bones all
gory. Good night, little Hotsy Tot
sies, I hope you sleep well tonight "
Prominent Local Man Speaks.
J. O. Turner gave a very inter
esting talk to the Civic Sociology
class last Friday. He explained
how bills and measures were Intro
duced into the state's legislative
body, and all the procedures they
went through before they became
a law.
The civic sociology class was for
merly the civics class.
Band Concert Self-Supporting-.
A band concert, under direction
of Harold Buhman, was held in the
auditorium last Friday night There
was a fair turn-out and fifty dol
lars was taken in which will be
used to pay outstanding debts. It
was an excellent program. Much
credit is due Mr. Buhman for his
efficient and untiring work in bring
ing these students up to the high
degree of proficiency which they
have attained..
Have We a Zoo?
The assembly is getting to be
quite a game refuge. About two
weeks ago a magpie visited the
school. Last' Thursday a very
much bewildered and friendly black
and white puppy was escorted up
the steps and into the assembly by
some of the students. The puppy
took an instant liking to Reese
Burkenbine who petted him and
treated him royally. Then Jimmie
Furlong loomed on the horizon in
the form of a "booster;" he got the
puppy by the neck and ushered him
outside much to the amusement of
the students and the assembly
teacher.
