Operetta Work
The operetta, "The Gypsy Rov
er," which is to be given March 27,
will require a lot of work. Most
people do not realize the tremend
ous task that the director of an op
eretta has. He has to help all the
leads learn their songs, which is not
easy by any means, nad then he
must teach the chorus their songs.
People usually do not attach as
much Importance to the chorus as
to the Veads, but the chorus is one
of the most important parts of an
operetta. They are like the line of
the football team; they are indis
pensable. Everyone knows that a
star backfield man couldn't get
anywhere if he didn't have a good
line to support him. It is just the
same in an operetta; the leads can't
do anything unless they have a good
supporting cast and chorus. Of
course, when you see a football
game, the only person you watch is
the man with the ball and the same
applies to the leads of an operetta.
But to enjoy an operetta you should
watch the chorus sing. They are
the ones who support the leads.
Of course, an operetta is slightly
more refined than a football game,
but the chorus and the football line
seem to be the best comparisons to
draw.
We know all the trouble a coach
has In whipping his team into shape
and of the difficult decisions he has
to make In placing his men in po
sitions. The same thing is en
countered in selecting a cast for
an operetta. This year Miss Leath
ers left the decisions entirely up to
different judges who were called in.
This seemed to be most fair because
five persons could judge a voice bet
ter than one, as has been formerly
done. This way It relieves the di
rector of the responsibility of
choosing certain people and of
making others disgusted because
they didn't get a part
We hope to make the operetta
this year a bigger success than any
other year previous to this time.
The support of the people of Hepp
ner will be greatly appreciated.

Locals Defeated
Heppners Fighting Irish jour
neyed to Arlington on Saturday,
Feb. 1, and suffered a surprising
defeat of 44-21. The slippery con
dition of the playing floor greatly
hampered Heppners "fast-break"
style of play and probably accounts
for the poor showing made.
H.H.S.
Operetta
Practices have begun for the high
school operetta, "The Gypsy Rover,"
which promises to be a delightful
musical comedy.
The cast announced last week
was as follows:
Meg, Jean Adkins; Zaro, Harriet
Hager; Marto, Jackson Gilliam,
Sinfo, Emmett Kenny; Rob, the
Gypsy Rover, Norton King; Lady
Constance, Kathryn Parker; Sir

Nina, Alvina Casebeer; Capt. Jer

Maybe Spring isn't so far off, after
all.

bruises, everyone seemed to have
a good time.

We could have seen Miss Rock
hold and Miss Peterson sliding
down the Catholic church hill.
You could enjoy our jokes as
much as we do.
That we could find out all thj

The boys weren't so conceited as
to be afraid of Leap Year.
Observations
Buddy Batty's feet are so big
that when he takes his shoes off
he's half undressed.
Bernard McMurdo is so mechan
ical that he took his nose apart to
see what made it run.
James Shoun is so Scotch that
he goes around corners on two
wheels to save his tires.
Joe Aiken: "What are you build

Ruth Cowins: "A magpie house."
Joe: "Gonna move?"

IT WORKED
FOR ME
Women should
take only
liquid
laxatives
MORE people could feel fine, be
fit and regular, if they would
only follow the rule of doctors and
hospital! in relieving constipation.
Never take any laxative that is
harsh in action. Or one, the dose of
which can't be exactly measured.
Doctors know the danger if this rule
is violated. They use liquid laxative,
and keep reducing the dose until the
bowels need no help at all.
Reduced dosage is the secret of
aiding Nature in restoring regularity.
You must use a little less laxative
each time, and that's why it should
be a liquid like Syrup Pepsin.
Ask your druggist for a bottle of
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, and if
It doesn't give you absolute relief, if
It Isn't a Joy and comfort in the way
it overcomes any sluggishness or
biliousness, your money back.
Universal Credit Company Leads
the Way With New, Universal,
Low Cost, Easy Payment Plans
For FORD Customers
New $25.00 per Month Plan Offers thrift with
safety at Cost of V2 per month
6 fo 12 months
Ford V-8 performance, ec
onomy, and beauty in the
past Is the guarantee of Ford
superiority and value In the
future. Greater and greater
value with each passing year
has brought unequaled dollar
value in the new Ford V-8
for 1936.
UCC Is happy to have the
opportunity to participate In
the great Ford sales program
for 1H38 by providing plans at
lower cost and with lower
monthly payments for the
purchaser who desires to buy
out of Income. This will make
possible Ford V-8 ownership
to thousands of new purchas
ers who were unable to buy
In the past because monthly
payments were more than
their monthly budgets would
permit There Is economy
also because the new plans
are less In cost to the time
buyer and provide more safe
ty for the purchaser's Invest
ment because of new features
Involved In the Insurance cov
erage provided with tha
plans. These lower costs,
lower monthly payments on
the New UCC Plans should
materially Increase sales by
broadening the base of the
Ford Time Buyer Market
Increased consumer credit by
Ford buyers will In turn be
reflocted In Increased Ford
production and payrolls, all
of which means further for
ward progress In the march
to recovery and prosperity.
The Importance of consumer
credit in motor car sales,
and what It means to general
prosperity, is further empha
sized when we recall that one
out of every ten persons em
ployed Is connected directly
or indirectly with the auto
mobile business.
Kvery day people are re
turning to gainful employ
ment The Increasing volume
of time buying Is evidence of
the fact that with the return
of employment comes the
urge to buy necessary trans
portation representing true
value In economy and quality.
Families buy Ford cars to
day as they have for thirty
years because of outstanding
value. Outstanding quality
at low cost has made the new
Ford the choice of millions.
"Ours is more than an ex
clusive Institution serving
Ford dealers and Ford pur
chasers," the Seattle Branch
Manager, Mr. Pierce, recent
ly stated. "We look upon the
Universal Credit Company as
an active arm of the Ford
sales force, charged with the
duty of helping the Ford
dealer and the Bord pur
chaser In any matters where
credit is Involved and which
has such an Important bear
ing on the merchandising of
automobiles."
Another important sales
function of the Universal
Credit Company which Mr.
Pierce brought out In our In
terview was the very Import
ant matter of goodwill.
"The buyer delights in deal
ing with an organization
which gives him prompt and
courteous treatment that
deals with him In absolute
fairness, ever maintaining the
high standard of its service
a service rendered with the
thought constantly in mind
of milking a repeat customer
of the buyer. This he be
comes as the result of a nat
ural appreciation for the val
ue In the products and the
sincerity of the manufacturer
and the seller."
A truly helpful credit ser
vice with friendly treatment
Is the business philosophy
behind UCC credit operations.
The convenient terms and
low cost and safety features
offer Ford buyers real econ
omy and safety through a
company that serves the
Ford market exclusively.
UCC Plans are available to
Ford purchasers nt Black

hear about someone being hit by

Do you know how much an all-electric
mhome laundry will save you?
Let us tell you... and give you plans
for modernizing your laundry!
O When you have an electric washer, an electric

because your appliances take over all the drudgery.
You save wear and tear on your clothes, You save
time. And with these savings, your work is finished

work out a plan for your all-electric laundry and
work toward the completion of that plan as you buy
equipment.
To assist you in this, Jeannette Cramer, promi
nent home service advisor, has designed a number
of typical all-electric laundries to serve as a basis
for your planning. You may secure these plans free

take the backache
out of ironing.
And it certainly
does that I The
ironer exerts all
the pressure not you. It frees you
from lifting and pushing. And your
Ironing is finished in half the time
formerly required.
Electric Water Heater
When you have an auto

ever-flowing hot spring
in your home.
