TheO. I.S.S.
ttttE PROPOSE a new order of
YV which there would be a local
lodge. And for honorary member
ship in that lodge, we propose the
names of many worthy citizens.
They have labored diligently daily
(or almost so) for several weeks
now, adding to the safety, comfort
and convenience of everyone. The
scraping and clicking of their shov
els has made sweet music, to which
dull thud after dull thud has beat a
rhythmic staccato of. progress as
shovelful after shovelful of snow
and slush from roof and sidewalk
took its place on the ever increas
ing heaps along the curbs.
This order we would have known
as the Order of Inveterate Snow
Shovellers. And for No. 1 shoveller
we place in nomination the name of
H. D. McCurdy, who, not content to
keep the way cleared in front of his
office next door, has many times re
moved the snow from in front of
the editor's sanctum sanctorum. But
there are many others up and down
the street, the boys from the stores
who have had a ready chit for the
passerby as they smilingly swung
into their work, making the music
of scraping and clicking, and beat
ing the staccato notes of progress,
Snow, Beautiful Snow.
(By Mrs. Editor)
TE SHOULD like in no uncer-
V V tain terms to give our opinion
of whoever said, "Spring Came On
Forever." In our immediate vicinity
the bitter opposite seems to be com
ing on for that interminable length
of time. Of course we always say
we like variety, and we never know
what we may find upon arising from
the one comfortably warm spot in
our world. It may be fifteen below
zero or it may be a simply tropical
ten above. We may awaken with
snow in our face or again it may be
hail.
But you take the wind (yes, do
to the North Pole would be fine)
there we find real pleasure. It is of
course a bit difficult to retain all of
one's wearing apparel not sewed on
while out in it, but think of the com
pensation in ruddy complexion, es
pecially nose.
The only thing we seem to be
missing is a nice wet flood but,
cheer up, spring will come.
Morrow county, wrapped in the
arms of Boreas, is favored. Devas
tating floods rage through the Ohio
river valley, while inhabitants of
the "Dust Bowl" on the great plains
strive to conserve rainfall against
another season of drouth.
Another mountain is turned into
the proverbial molehill as Budget
Director Wharton explains away the
"million dollar error" and saves the
governor's face. It is good to know
that Old Man Oregon will have a
little pocket change for Peiperheid
sick in 1937-38.
To Heppner lodge of Elks greet
ings on their 40th birthday.
A busy week end is on for county
agriculturists and stockmen. Today
the compliance committee under 1937
AAA program is attending a regional
meeting at Arlington. Tomorrow a
regional meeting on soil consereva
tion holds sway at Lexington grange
hall. And Saturday landholders and
grazing permit seekers of the North
Morrow County Grazing Control
district get together in Heppner. All
meetings will evolve plans vital to
the future of the county's basic industries.
Chelan's test of the old age re
volving pension plan has struck a
snag as souvenir hunters have taken
much of the marked money out of
circulation. Just another case of
nosey people taking the joy out of
life.
Then, as the lucky pensioner
reaches the half month with only $30
in his jeans, some folks are worried
for fear his family will be on relief
before the month is over.
All of which goes to show Brew
ster lived in the wrong generation.
Oregon's milk control law holds as
the legislature floored the repeal
bill. At least we in Heppner may be
thankful that our leading dairy
leaves enough cream to skim for
breakfast coffee. Aside from the
best climate this side of the sunny
southland, Heppner is served with
the best milk, cream and butter to
be had any place.
To D. O. Justus credit for telling
the best story of the week:
After he had consumed the second
piece of pumpkin pie, little Johnny's
mother was discouraging him in his
demand for more. Every tack taken
by the mother was met with irre
futable argument, until, in final des
peration, she ejaculated:
"But, Johnny, if you eat another
bite you'll burst!"
To which Johnny imDerturbedlv
gave answer: "Well, just pass the pie
and get out of the way.
H. O. Ely was a visitor in the citv

Last year 10-year-old Shirley Peknay, of Brooklyn, went to the
Roosevelt Birthday Ball in braces which she wore on a leg semi
paralyzed as the result of infantile paralysis. This year Shirley,
after an operation made possible by funds raised through the Roose
velt Birthday Celebrations for aid of infantile paralysis sufferers,
is essaying her first dance steps with the assistance of Arthur Mur
ray, noted New York ballroom dance expert. Mr. Murray has orig
inated a new waltz, the Washington, which is being introduced at
the New York celebration in honor of President Roosevelt.
