PAGE TWO HEPPNER GAZETTE TI?IES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, MAY 7, 1936. & PROCLAMATION Saturday, May 23rd, was pro claimed Poppy Day in Heppner in a proclamation issued Tuesday by Mayor Jeff Jones. The procla mation urged all citizens to honor the World War dead by 'wearing the American Legion and Auxil iary memorial poppy on that day, and to aid the war's living victims by contributing to the Legion and Auxiliary welfare funds. The proclamation follows: "The City of Heppner during the great crisis of the World War sent forth its sons in response to the nation's call. They served gallantly in the nation's defense, and of their number some were called upon to lay down their lives in that service. The mem ory of their patriotic sacrifice should always be held dear by the citizens of Heppner. "Others of these brave young men were called upon to sacrifice, not life, but health and strength which makes life worth while. Their families and the families of the dead also were required to make heavy sacrifices. These dis abled and dependents are still paying th human price of our na tion's World War victory. "From the battle front in France our returning soldiers brought the poppy as the symbol of sacrifice and the memorial flower of the dead. Each year on the Saturday before Memorial Day the men of the American Legion and the women of the American Legion Auxiliary ask us to wear this flower in tribute to the nation's fallen defenders and to give in exchange for the flower a contribution to aid the war's living victims. "Therefore, I, Jeff Jones, May or of Heppner, urge all citizens to honor the dead and aid the liv ing by wearing the American Le gion and American Legion Auxil iary memorial poppy on Satur day, May 23rd. "And to that end,, I do hereby proclaim Saturday, May 23rd, Poppy Day in the City of Hepp ner. JEFF JONES." Value of Free, Virile Press Told by Editor "One newspaper editor in each county, telling the truth courage ously, fearing neither man nor devil, wearing no man's collar, swerving neither to right nor left through fear of advertising loss, determined to do his duty to his readers, his God and his own conscience I say one such editor and his fellows can save the state from selfishness, par tisanship, the rule of demagogues and perhaps revolution." This statement was made by Ar thur Crookham, city editor of the Oregon Journal, in an address on newspaper practices and policies given before the annual Matrix Ta ble banquet of Theta Sigma Phi, national society for women in jour nalism, at Oregon State college. Crookham, speaking from 23 years of active newspaper experience, freely admitted the faults of the press, or certain sections of it, and said that while considering the nec essity of a free press, it is well to remember that newspapers have duties as well as rights. He urged the active participation of newspa pers in promoting good government rather than mere partisan politics.' "If the Oregon primary law is ever repealed, I believe it will be due to the incompetence of self starters and the failure of the press to expose the charlatans and stand by the clean and competent candi dates, regardless of party," he said. Mr. Crookham decried cynics and cynicism among newspapermen, which, he said, is largely a pose when it exists at all. A cynic's con tribution to and influence for good in the world is nil, said the speaker, adding that even a hypocrite is to be preferred to a cynic as he at least pays lip loyalty to better things than he may believe. The speaker quoted Dickens with approval as saying that in news paper work as elsewhere "there is no substitute for thorough-going, ardent and sincere earnestness." 3 FAMOUS TRAINS Portland Rose Daily Pacific Limited Daily Till Sbuam&neh- CITY OF PORTLAND FIVE "SAILINGS" MONTHLY From Portland during May, 3.43 p.m. on 1,6,11,19,25. 3994 hour to Chicago All pace reserved LOW PRICED MEALS WINTER EXCURSION FARES Continue Daily to May 14 MEAL PRICES SO LOW Breakfast . . . 25c Luncheon . 30c Dinner 35c Umi in coachM on th Pacific Limited nd In CoachM and Tourlil Slpri on th Portland Ro.
