As we all know, last Friday was
May 1, May Day. In our small
community this may be compared
to the Pan-American conferences
as far as purpose is concerned. The
May Day festival is not only for
the purpose of seeing who can run
the fastest, wno can throw the far
thest nor who can sing the best,
but it creates a better feeling among
the schools. Of course, the students
get together some at the games but
not to the extent that they do on
May Day.
The students not only make new
acquaintances but also renew the
old ones. The students of other
schools have a chance to know our
ideas and troubles. They see our
school and are able to find out how
their school and accomplishments
compare with those of other
schools. The different schools may
get new ideas which will help them
in the future.
Perhaps it would be better if
there were more such meetings and
celebrations among the schools.
H.H.3.
Mothers' and Daughters' Tea.
The Girl's League is giving a tea
for the mothers and daughters of
the high school on the school lawn
Thursday afternoon from 3:45 to
4:30 o'clock. The girls are sending
invitations to every mother. A mu
sical program will be given, fol
lowed by refreshments. A similar
tea was given last year,, but this
will be in honor of Mother's Day.
H.H.B.
Freshman Program.
The best program of the year
was presented Thursday afternoon
by the freshman class. The idea
was that of a radio station. Arthur
McAtee was the announcer over
station BURP. The first feature
was "The Lion Tamer," a skit pre
sented by Frances McCarty, John
Crawford and Donald Frederick
son. Alvina Casebeer and Juanita
Phelps sang "Dreamy Sunset Isle."
A skit, "The Royal Romance," was
presented by Edna Stephens, Dick
Wilkinson and Rufus Hill. Walter
Winchell Aiken gave the latest
news from station HIC at Hard
man. 'The Mountain Tragedy,"
with Billy Barratt Donald Fell and
Bob Scrivner as the mountaineers
was also presented over station
HIC. "Scientific Facts" by Maude
Bailey was broadcast from station
CRAZY at Lena. The program
was then turned back to station
BURP where Edna Stevens enter
tained with a song, "Down the Har
bor of Home Sweet Home." The
program was ended by a song,
"Little Brown Jug," sung by Ar
thur McAtee.
The next program will be given
by the juniors.
H.H.S.
Year's Course Ended.
The Heppner high school and
grade school faculty has just com
pleted their group study for the
year. Each year they carry out a
study program for which they re
ceive reading circle credit from the
state department of education. This
year the teachers had a somewhat
heterogeneous program.
As a part of this program, each
teacher contributed a report on
some phase of education in which
he or she was interested. There
were contributions on subjects of
adult education, report cards, mu
sic, Oregon history, testing pro
gram and art.
