Word wag received by Heppner
relatives the end of the week of the
appointment of Jared C. Aiken as
manager for southern California for
the Metroplitan Casualty company
with headquarters at Los Angeles.
Mr. Aiken has been manager of the
Oakland office of the company for
several years, and his latest ad
vancement indicates a high quality
of service. He was slated for a
visit to Portland last Sunday in
company with "Clipper" Smith, his
old coach when he played football
with Columbia college in Portland,
but his transfer to Los Angeles
made the trip impossible. Jared,
more familiarly known as "Spec"

son of Mrs. Lillie Aiken, and anoth
er Heppner boy who is making a
name for himself in the outside
world.

This paper wishes to correct a
misstatement made last week in
regard to Dr. McMurdo's visit to
Corvallis for the O. S. C. home

to Corvallis from Portland when
he took Arthur McAtee to the city,
but returned to Heppner and then

Editorial
Thanksgiving Day! These words
bring to our minda the thoughts of
delicious food. Our first though is
turkey. Who could help but enjoy
a nicely cooked turkey with dress
ing, sauce, celery, sweet potatoes,
and all the other holiday foods? We
are all human enough to get hun
gry, especially at Thanksgiving
time. Yes, we are all human enough
to get hungry; but so do animals'.
We human beings are capable of a
feeling higher than hunger; we
know the real meaning of Thanks
giving Day if we would only re
member it. Instead of observing it
as a day of worship, most of us
think only of the good food we will
get to eat. Let us, on this 1934
Thanksgiving Day, remember to
give thanks as well as to eat. Ani
mals have not the intelligence to
thank God. We have more intelli
gence than animals and have a
mind and appreciation for higher
things. Let's act like it!
Grade News
The first grade Indian tribe has
made some Indian dolls and is now
busy weaving rugs. They are giv
ing a program for their mothers on
Wednesday.
The second grade is dramatizing
a program, "Old Man Rabbit's
Thanksgiving Dinner."
The second and third grades are
making picture books for Thanks
giving. The third grade has completed
their form unit with a miniature
form on the sand table. They have
also decorated their room for
Thanksgiving. They are writing
a dramatization, "The Brewster
Family Comes to America."
Some original poems were made
by the fourth grade and set to mu
sic. The following was made by

Little flowers on the lawn:
Though you cannot sing your song
You can send a sweet perfume
To others which are in bloom
So sweet.

The second was played between
two teams picked from the girls
high school gym class.
In the main event of the evening
the high school varsity lost to the
town team by a score of 43 to 27.
Joe Green was the high point man
for the varsity team and Al Massey
was high point man for the town

Hot Lunches
The project of hot lunches seems
so far to be a big success. They are
for the benefit of the students that
live in the country. Many of the
students pay for the foods in kind,
that ia by giving vegetables, milk,
butter, etc. Miss Staley has charge
of the management. Miss Doherty
keeps the accounts. The enterprise
is almost self supporting. A pro
gram Is under way that will prob
ably be given as a benefit to the hot
lunches, just before Christmas.
Tea
The girls of Heppner high school
gave a tea in honor of their moth
ers Friday afternoon. The purpose
of the tea was to interest the moth
ers in a Girls' league. Irene Beamer
and Kathryn Parker explained the
meaning of the Girls' league. Olivia
Baldwin gave a reading, Jessie
French sang two songs accompan
ied by Miss Brownson. Mrs. E. L.
Morton expressed her opinion on

The tea was very successful and
it is hoped that a Girls' league may
