Editorial
It is most gratifying to observe
the wide circulation of our local
paper. The people of Condon
showed almost unbelievable Inter
est in the Hehisch. Their response
to tne appeal for loyalty given last
week was magnificent. They had
fully as many people attending the
game as came from Heppner, de
spite the distance from which they
came. That should be a supreme
humiliation to Heppner. "The op
posing team had more rooters than
the home town boys." Does that
sound complimentary? Your team
plays lone at lone this Friday and
will appreciate your support The
next week end they play Mac Hi
here. Mac Hi is rated as the strong
est team on the schedule and the
team will need the support of ev
eryone. It is the last game on the
home field. The grandstand should
be filled. Don't let other towns get
ahead in enthusiasm. Support the
team yourself.

"Say, will you tell your father to
keep his cows at home at night?"
"Why?"
"Because I can't possibly sleep
with them mooing in my ears all
night long. Furthermore, they
frighten me out of my wits.
This fair young lady who says
she Is "frightened out of her wits"
apparently does not like cows. But
should we make fun of her? No,
because we all have our pet likes
and dislikes, don't we.

"great stand."
He cast his eyes about the ever
deepening shadows of the little hos
pital room, flashed for one brief
moment a reminiscent smile, then
said:
"Long ago, at the little school
back home, I learned to laugh at
glory.
"It was our big game. A win
had been expected from us, but we
had failed, and now in the final
fleeting minutes, despair precipi
tated mean, ugly, unsportsman acts.
Yet amidst all, our opponents' smil
ing midget captain voiced not a
word of complaint. Beneath the
grimy "pile up" of a skirmish I suc
ceeded in administering a few uncalled-for
punches. The little fel
low jumped up first, grabbed my
hand and helped me to my feet.
He smilingly patted my shoulder
and said, "Don't be glory's fool!"
For a moment I stared blank
faced at nothing, then burst Into
laughter. I laughed again and again
for now I saw, as he had been used
to seeing, glory not as an end but
a myth. What if we lost! We had
fought the fight and in losing could
still gain, for now had come one
moment in life that was to make
many more worth living.
No glory is not all
Glory is the least!

ing js to have it checked with a sight meter.
