Editorial
The country needs, and, unless I
mistake Its temper, the country de
mands bold, persistent experimen
tation. It is common sense to take
a method and try it. If It fails, ad
mit It, and try another. But above
all, try something. The millions
who are In want will not stand by
silently forever whUle the things to
satisfy tholr needs are within read.
We need enthusiasm, imagination
and ability to face facts, even un
pleasant ones, bravely. We need to
correct by drastic means, if neces
sary, the faults from which we now
suffer. We need the courage of the
young. Franklin Delano Roosevelt

Memories of School History
There have been many improve
ments and changes in our school
since our present building was
erected in 1913-14.- The old classes
also had some clubs and classes
which we don't have now. In 1918
there were two literary societies
and an Industrial club. At this time
they had baseball, tennis and track
besides football and basketball.
Also they had two school songs
and each class had a poem. The
debate teams were started in the
year 1920-21. An orchestra of
twelvo was organized in 1923-24. At
the present time it is also interest
ing to find that the student body
handled over a thousand dollars in
the school year of 1921-22. Did you
know where the busts of Washing
ton and Lincoln came from? One
was presented to the student body
by each of the literary clubs of
1917-18, the Philomathian Literary
ooiety and the Ciceronian Literary
society. Further interesting side
lights on our school may be found
in an article by Norton Winnari
in the Hehisch of 1916. It Is given
in part:
"In 1910 the Instructors were en
deavoring to carry on the high
school work with not one dollars
worth of equipment of any kind.
These teachers, three in number,
'neludlng the superintendent, were
obliged to construct what appara
tus they could by hand and go with
out the rest This utter lack of ap
paratus was very deplorable with
not even a map and as for black
boards simply pine boards black
ened. Little science was studied, no

chemistry, German, biology, no
commercial work save a little book
keeping. The high school proyer
was confined to three small rooms
on the upper floor of the old build
ing. The enrollment numbered
scarcely 80 and altogether the high
school had a most discouraging out
look. Now how changed every
thing is. The school is now housed
in a new $45,000, pressed brick
building, modern and up-to-date in
every way. A glance about tells Its
own story. Instead of three small
rooms, eleven are used. The large
assembly hall with a seating ca
pacity of about 400, the handsome
stage and large halls add much to
the attactivenees of the school life.
In the basement are the lavatories,
recreation rooms, chemistry and
physics laboratories and some fine
shower baths with handy locker
rooms. The teaching staff has been
increased to five. Manual training,
chemistry, biology, German, draw
ing and commercial work. Includ
ing typewriting, bookkeeping, com
mercial law, shorthand and other
branches have been added to the
curriculum. Coming back to the
matter of equipment, the depart
ment of chemistry itself has about
$350.00, incuding chemicals and ap
paratus, while physics, biology
and physical geography equipments
are valued at over $1000. All this
equipment is absolutely necessary
to a thorough study of these sub
jects. The enrollment has been
nearly doubled and a fine library
has been built up. The school is
now recognized as a standard hih
school, having met all conditions
of standardization. This means
that a graduate of Heppner high
shcool may enter any college or
educational Institution of any kind
without any entry examination."
Clnss Notes
The advanced secretarial class
is having a few problems In book
keeping. This is to aid those who
wish to continue their business
training in business colleges, oi
those who may find employment in
an office.
The domestic science class served
a dinner Wednesday. A red and
white color scheme was carried out,
with red tulips. The menu: toma
to juice cocktail, chuck roast of
pork, buttered cauliflower, rolls,
prune conserve, strawberries, and
cream, cornflake meringues.
Term projects in American his
tory are now being turned in. Some
of the reports will 'be given some
time in the next two weeks. The
material for the last six weeks his
just been competed, and the pupils
will spend the remainer of the
semester reviewing, with some ob
jective tests.
The senior, junior and sophomore
Euglish classes are now doing work
in their grammar books.
The last book reports are being
called in this week.
Tha first year Spanish class is
reading some Spanish essays, writ
ten in Spanish, about Spain, to help
them acquire a larger vocabulary.
Opinions
Speaking about personal opinions
just what is an opinion, and what
kind do you have? Does it depend
upon your environment, upon prej
udice, expression, or something you
have heard or read? You may als
have a collective opinion, one with
a common cause among small
groups. There Is public opinion,
too. When the majority of the peo
ple are given ample time for facts
to determine their own knowledge,
the result will be a public opinion.
These were some questions that
were brought up in the Sociology
class this week.
