Danger of Colds
A tight harsh cough came from
the red-inflamed throat of a student
on one side of the assembly; another
from the opposite side; then all sides
chimed in unison. They are signals,
not of mockerey, but of distress.
At this time of the years colds are
very prevalent. In some places the
number of cases being greater than
during the World War. This in it
self should be a warning to take the
utmost care of yourself. As a result
of this sickness, the ravages of tu
berculosis are given just the chance
they are seeking the weakened
condition in which influenza leaves
the lungs and throat.
The best remedy is to build up a
resistance. To build up a resistance
against this is to build up good
health, and good health is a requisite
of a successful life.
H.H.S.
New Band Books
Mr. Buhman purchased some new
band books, which he issued to the
members last week. These books
contain many lively marches. The
band played these marches before
the public at the basketball game
last Friday night.
When the weather warms up, Mr.
Buhman is planning on holding
some special band classes after school
hours to make up the practices
missed in the coldest weather. This
should help to pave the way for our
band to win the cup for the second
time in class D at the annual State
Band contest.
H.H.S.
Assembly
The Pep club gave their annual
skit in front of the student body on
Friday, January 22. The skit had as
its purpose the showing of the lack
of spirit at pep assemblies and at
the games. The program was con
cluded with a song contest between
the four classes. A bag of all-day
suckers was won by the seniors,
who were judged the best songsters.
The judges in this contest were Miss
Mitchell, Mr. Pcavy and Mr. Tetz.
H.H.S.
F.F.A. Smoker to be Held Soon
A meeting was called Friday by
Mr. Grimes, advisor of the local
chapter of the Future Farmers of
America, for the purpose of setting
the price of club dues. A committee
was appointed by the vice president,
Fred Hoskins, who presided during
the absence of the president, Riley
Munkers. Another committee was
appointed for the purpose of deter
mining the price of admission to thj
smoker which is to be held Febru
ary 12. Several Condon boys are in
vited to participate in this smoker,
and by all signs it is going to be very
exciting. The public is invited.
H.H.S.
New Faculty Member
Due to the change in schedule at
the end of the first semester, Mrs.
Ed Clark has been added to the fac
ulty as part time teacher of Biology,
Geometry and English Essentials.
Mrs. Clark is a native of Winne
bagu City, Minn., but she moved at
an early age to Seattle, Wash., where
she graduated from the Broadway
high school and University of Wash
ington. She formerly taught in
White Salmon, Wash., Hood River,
Marshfield and La Grande high
schools.

Heppner Loses to Arlington
Last Friday in one of the poorest
showings of the year, the Heppner
high basketeers met defeat at the
hands of the Arlington Honkers. The
local hoopsters couldn't get to click
ing, and their inability to hit the
basket kept the Mustangs from en
dangering the lead which the river
boys took from the start.
Gilman was high point man for
the locals with 7 points, while Ba
ker led the Honkers with 9 points.
The line-up was as follows: Hepp
ner: Hoskins g (2), Munkers g (1),
Van Marter c (6), Gilman f (7), Cox
en f (2) 19; subs. Aiken (1), Hayes,
Stone; Arlington: Harford g, Woods
g, Rice c (4), McMullen f (6), Bow
man f (8) 31; subs., Wetherill (4),
Baker (9).

Humor
It looks as though the Republicans
came out on top after all; they didn't
have to go to the President's inaug
uration and stand in all the rain.
Teacher: "You are twenty minutes
late again. Don't you know what
time we start work in this school?"
New Student: "No, Sir; they're
always at it when I get here."
It looks as though times are pick
ing up with the W. P. A. and "Pen
nies From Heaven."
HAVE YOU EVER
Seen John Hays get to school on
time?
Seen Andy Davidson worrying
about his harem since Clifford Fay
started to school here?
Seen some students sleigh riding
on the cemtery hill at 12 o'clock at
night?
Seen the new Pep books? (If not,
arrange to do so and buy one.)
Heard Don Turner describe a far
mer in Sociology?
Seen Fred Hoskins looking for the
buttons off his coat?

Personals
Molly Mclntyre has been absent
from school the past week, due to
an attack of influenza.
Juanita Phelps has been absent
from school because of illness.
Billy Irwin, former Ukiah student,
has enrolled as a sophomore for the
second semester.
Daniel Chinn, who has been ab
sent from school the past week, re
turned Tuesday.
Betty Bergevin has been absent
from school the past week, staving
off an attack of influenza.
Clifford Fay has enrolled as a

La Grande.
H.H.S.
Did You Know That
A course for curing stuttering has
been instituted as a regular course at
Oregon State college?
University of Oregon co-eds are
already planning their spring knit
wardrobes?
Jesse Owens was named the out
standing athlete of 1936 in a poll
conducted by the Associated Press?
There are only 337 days remaining
till Christmas?
1,128,691 bicycles were produced
in 1899, an all time record?
The only person known to be
wrong is the other fellow?
Thirty-one thousand six hundred
and sixty-nine dollars have gone in
to the treasury of Uncle Sam from
the chain letter craze of 1935? This is
the total taken from undeliverable
letters turned over to the Dead Let
ter office on account of faulty ad
dresses. Coons live to a ripe old age? Hence
the expression, "I haven't seen you
in a coon's age."
At the rate of speed which How
ard Hughes averaged in, his recent
record-breaking, cross-country air
plane dash, it would take less than
11 minutes to travel the distance
between Heppner and Arlington?
Five out of seven fatalities last
year occurred on country highways?
We are supposed to be living in
an educated and civilized world?
Pajamas, Mohammedan in origin,
were worn in India centuries ago?
H.H.S.
Arlington Game Friday
The Heppner Mustangs will jour
ney to Arlington Friday to avenge
the defeat handed them last Friday
by the Arlington Honkers. The local
boys insist that they can beat Ar
lington, so let's show our apprecia
tion and pep by giving them our sup
port. H.H.S.
Hcrmiston Plays Here Saturday
Next Saturday the Heppner team
will try their skill against the Her
miston Bulldogs. Hermiston has
been defeated but once in eight
starts; therefore this meeting should
prove to be keenly contested. They
have one of the strongest teams in
their district. Heppner still has a
chance for a great team this year,
so let's give them a boost.
H.H.S.
"Guess Who?"
He's five foot ten and very blond,
A nice looking chap of whom we're
fond.
He kind of struts when he walks,
And kind of brags when he talks,
But everyone likes him just the
same.
Now really can't you guess his name?
He likes the one that begins with
"D",
But don't call him the one that starts
with "T".
H.H.S.

H.H.S.
Grade School News
The eighth grade held a class elec
tion last Tuesday for the purpose
of electing class officers for the com
ing six weeks. The officers elected
were as follows: President, Hugh
Crawford; vice-president, Harry 0'
Donnell; secretary, Donald Bennett;
librarian, Jack Morton; reporter,
Frances Wilkinson; patrolman, Jack
O'Hara. The vacancy left by Hugh
Crawford, lieutenant in the School
boy Patrol, who resigned in order
that he might devote more time to
the presidency, was filled by Henry
Aiken.
Farm Production
Figures Are Compiled
Many and varied have been the
estimates as to Oregon's annual in
come from agricultural sources.
Some of these estimates have been
found to take figures from Oregon's
primary agricultural production and
compare them with income from oth
er industries after manufacturing
values have been added, and vice
versa. In an attempt to establish some
authoritative basis for figuring agri
cultural income in this state, exten
sion circular No. 300, by L. R. Breit-
haupt, extension economist, has just
been issued, which is entitled, "Ag
ricultural Income in Oregon -Sources
and Trends."
This bulletin showed that on the
basis of 1928 figures, before rela
tionships had been disrupted by de
pression factors, crop and animal
production represented approximate
ly 75 percent of the value of all pri
mary production in Oregon. Of the
total of $163,600,000 of cash farm in
come credited to that year, 38.4 per
cent came from crop products, 40.6
percent from animal products, while
21 percent was added value through
manufacturing or processing.
The bulletin includes government
figures on cash farm income in Ore
gon from 1924 to 1935, and shows the
approximate division among the va
rious farm enterprises. Official gov
ernment figures are in the main
somewhat below actual income, it is
believed, because of omission of im
portant specialty crops, such as seeds,
flax fiber, flower bulbs, poultry as
meat, and fur bearing animals.
New Radio Devices Aid Aircraft
Corvallis Improvement in radio
aids to aircraft navigation are being
made so rapidly that increasing safe
ty is certain to mark future air trav
el, says E. A. Yunker, in charge of
radio instruction at O. S. C. The de
partment of commerce has developed
radio landing aids which permit a
plane to be brought to earth in the
densest fog or in darkness at air
ports equipped with this device.
These are so new that they have not
been generally installed throughout
the country, says Yunker.
Read G. T. Want Ads. You way
find a bargain in something needed.
Surplus Feed Grain Needed
Corvallis A call for Oregon far
mers, feed shippers and dealers to
list surplus feed grains with county
agents for possible sale and ship
ment to deficient areas has been re
ceived from E. O. Pollock, in charge
of the federal livestock feed agency
in Kansas City. The listing is be
ing made to determine supplies of
feed grains available for shipment
to livestock feeders in the drouth
counties of northern California. The
listings desired would show amounts
and kinds of grain available, name
and address of owner and point from
which the grain would be shipped
by rail.
ROUND-UP DATES SET.
The Pendleton Round-Up associa
tion has set the dates for the 1937
show as September 16, 17 and 18.
This puts the roundup a week later
than the state fair at Salem and
eliminates the conflict of last year.
The arrangement will prove popular
with many who like to put in full
time at both big shows.
