With one victory to urge them
on and one defeat to arouse their
fighting spirit, we expect great
things of our team this year. How

will present three one-act plays for
the benefit of the hot lunches that
the school provides for the students
who bring lunches. The first is a
Christmas play, The Christmas
Awakening, given by the public
speaking class. The second is the
most humorous play that has been
given here in a long, long time. This
play Is a satire on bridge parties
and the boys in it will send one
into, gales of laughter. The third
play, The Finger of God, is a drama
starring Miss Rockhold, Mr. Evans,

is a masterpiece in itself and no
one should miss the chance to see
them. The chorus, directed by Miss
Leathers, will sing Christmas num
bers to accompany the Christmas
play.

Assembly
The Benzine Ring had charge of
the program at the assembly Fri
day afternoon. La Verne VanMar-
ter, master of ceremonies, Intro
duced the program with an inter
esting talk about the Benzine Ring
club. The .program was well or
ganized with only a few, slight, un
forseen difficulties. Each difficulty
made the program all the more in
teresting. To most of us the "cork
pulling contest" was most inter
esting. The other experiments and
talks were just as fully enjoyed.
The first talk, given by Nonie Mc
Laughlin, was on the discovery of
oxygen. An experiment in prepar
ing and collecting oxygen was given
by Ethyl Hughes and Steve Weh
meyer. Bernard McMurdo ex
plained the oxidation of magnesium
and sulphur. Arlene Morton and
Arleta Ashbaugh explained and il
lustrated the oxidation of carbon.
Neva Bleakmai explained the oxi
dation of copper. Jackson Gilliam
and Betty Doherty experimented
the oxidation of phosphorus. At
the conclusion of the program, Don
Turner was appropriately notified
that he was to be initiated into the
Benzine Ring at their next meeting.
A short pep assembly was then
held. Pep talks were given by
Coach Blankenshlp, Howard Fur
long and Leonard Gilman. The as
sembly was ended with a few yells,
cheering the team on to victory
with Irrigon.

Social Hour
The Heppner school gym was the
scene of much merriment and ex
citement on Tuesday night, De
cember 3. This was the night of
the semi-monthly social hour, which
lasted from 7:30 to 8:55. The fore
part of the evening was spent In
playing games, and the latter part
was spent In dancing.' Mr. Blank
enshlp had charge of the games.
Everyone seemed to have a good
time, and If more students attend
the social hours in the future, I'm
sure there will be more fun and
excitement for everyone,
H.H.S.

. . Things Women Want
A woman's magazine recently
compiled a study of the leisure time
and interests of some four thousand
readers. In reply to the question:
"What Is your favorite 'evening at
home' entertainment?" 71 per cent
answered reading, 21 per cent sew
ing and 18 per cent radio. Four out
of five of the women voted in the
last election; three out of five make
their own clothes or hats; nearly
three-quarters of them have auto
mobiles. Only one in nine "has a
servant. Asked: "What would you
like to do most?" more than half
answered, "to travel." One woman
out of fourteen expressed the de
sire to go into business. And 48
women out of the nearly 4,000 said
they were perfectly satisfied.
The emphasis is my own, and is
intended to point the text for to
day's homily. About one American
woman in a hundred, according to
this interesting survey, has every
thing she wants. The other ninety
and nine are nothing but alluring
bundles of prospective purchases
and unfulfilled desires.
When you look at the finnacial
pages of the newspapers you see
charts of car-loadings, electric out
put, bank deposits, and so forth.
You never see a chart marked,
"Things American Women Want
and Won't Be Satisfied Until They
Get" Yet such a chart would be
more important than all the others
combined; it would be the chart
which would show what makes the
wheels go round.
Ten years ago our family remod
elled a house; we put into it every
improvement, comfort, and convenience-gadget
we could discover.
Now we are in process of remodel
ling another house. I have been
amazed at the number of new
tricks that have come along In the
intervening ten years air-condi
tioning, radios in the bedrooms,
better plumbing fixtures, better
lighting, better floor coverings, and
so forth. We thought we were
through as home-building custom
ers a decade ago, and here we are
startirall over again.
America will never be through;
it will always be starting all over
again as long as 99 out of 100 wo
men are unsatisfied.
' .... Your Best Years
It may interest you to know at
what age you are likely to be at the
top of your efficiency as measured
by the quality of your work. Ac
cording to Professor Harvey C.
Lehman of Ohio State University,
thirty-five marks the creative peak
for most people. Chemists do their
outstanding work between twenty
seven and thirty-nine; mathemati
cians between twenty-eight and
thirty-eight; physicists between
thirty and thirty-four. Inventors
strike twelve at thirty-five, while
poets achieve their loftiest flights
in the brief "breathing spell" be
tween twenty-two and twenty-five.
It takes astronomers somewhat
longer to get along, but their ap
parent slowness may be due to the
vast distances they are compelled
to cover.
I am considerably beyond the
dead-line of thirty-flve, and noth
ing has been produced so far that
seems likely to rank with Mr.
Shakespeare's Hamlet or the brief
remarks of Mr. Lincoln at Gettys
burg. This is a sad thought.
On the other hand, if you keep
Dont
Guess But
Know
Whether the "Pain"
Remedy You Use
, is SAFE?
Don't Entrust Your
Own or Your Family's
Well -Being to Unknown
Preparations
THE person to ask whether the
preparation you or your family
are taking for the relief of headaches
it SAFE to use regularly U your
family doctor. Ask him particularly
about Genuine BAYER ASPIRIN.
He will tell you that before the
discovery of Baynr Aspirin most
"pain remedies' were advised
against by physicians as bad for the
stomach and, often, for the heart.
Which is food for thought if you
seek quick, safe relief.
Scientists rate Bayer Aspirin
among the fastest methods yet dis
covered for the relief of headaches
and ths pains of rheumatism, neu
ritis and neuralgia. And the experi
ence of millions of users has proved
it safe for the average person to use
regularly. In your own interest re
member this.
You can get Genuine Bayer
Aspirin at any drug store simply
by asking for it by its full name,
BAYER ASPIRIN. Make it
point to do this and see that you
get what you want.
Bayer Aspirin
your mind active you can have
quite a lot of fun with it even after
it has begun to cool off. Goethe
finished his Faust only a few years
before' his death at eighty-three;
Gladstone took up the study of a
new language when he was well
past seventy, and Vanderbilt in
creased the mileage of his railroads
from 120 to more than 10,000 be
tween his seventieth birthday and
his death at eighty-three.
These tough old codgers may have
been on the down grade but they
kept going, and I take courage from
their example. Every night I give
thanks that I still have the desire
to work, even though it is now
more than ten years, according to
the Professor's figures, since I be
gan to crack.
