REMEMBERS FRIENDS.
Lee Howell writes from Pomeroy,

nicely located there where he re
cently assumed the position as man
ager of Tum-A-Lum Lumber com
pany, having been transferred from
the lone office. He said, "Would
like to see some old faces that we
over there once in a while. You
know that we like to see new faces
and meet new people but we also
loke to see some old faces that we
are well acquainted with. I believe
that I have some real friends around
Heppner or that is the way I think
they have treated me. Hope to come
down and see them sometime. I say
down and guess that I should have
said over, as we are at about the
same elevation here as Heppner.
Pomeroy is 1900 feet above sea level,
and if I remember right that is what
Heppner is." Incidentally, Mr. How
ell helped make sure of getting news
of Morrow county, by renewing his
Gazette Times subscription.
