Episcopalian Folk
Celebrate Final
Debt Liquidation
Early History Recall
ed as Parish House
Indebtedness Lifted
Final lifting of the parish house
debt inspired a celebration at All
Saints Episcopal church Monday
evening when 120 members and
friends ate supper together in the
debt-free building and heard related
much local church history. Assist
ing from the outside were Bishop
and Mrs. W. P. Remington of Pen
dleton, Archdeacon Ralph V. Hinkle
of Portland, Miss Catherine Peter
son and Mrs. G. W. Phelps of Pendleton.
The note-burning ceremony was
conducted by Mrs. L. E. Dick and
Mrs. A. D. McMurdo. Mrs. Dick held
the cancelled note on a tin plate
while Mrs. McMurdo touched a
match to it and the group cheered
the proceedings.
Bishop Remington touched on local
and national church work, telling of
visiting the church in Alexandria,
Va., where President Washington
had a pew. He commended Rev.
Mr. Hinkle for his good work in
Heppner. The latter responded, and
in turn commended Miss Peterson
for her excellent work with the
young people. Others giving talks
were Miss Peterson, Mrs. Phelps, an
early member of the local church;
Mrs. Olive Frye, a teacher in Bethal
chapel before All Saints church was
organized; Mrs. Hanson Hughes and
Mrs. M. R. Wightman of Arlington,
presidents of the auxiliary, and
Jackson Gilliam, president Young
Peoples Fellowship both in eastern
Oregon and the province including
states west of the Mississippi river,
Alaska, Hawaii and the Philippines.
Mrs. Ture Peterson niece of Rev.
W. Seymour Short of Grace church,
Astoria, one of the rectors assisting
in the dedication read articles from
the Heppner papers under date of
April 10, 1904, covering the dedica
tory rites. The present church, built
to replace one washed away in the
June 14, 1903 flood, cost $3000 and
was all paid for at the time of the
dedication. Of the event it was
said:
"The dedicatory services were
conducted by Rt. Rev. B. Wistar
Morris, bishop of Oregon, Rev. W.
E. Potwine, secretary of the diocese,
the Rev. W. Seymour Short of Grace
church, Astoria, and Rev. John
Warren, missionary in charge. . . The
design of the church was taken from
old English architecture. The old
church was washed away by flood
June 14, 1903, and the new building
was placed on higher ground. In
building this church, outside con
tributors have been liberal, several
donations coming from England. The
Episcopal church was barely finish
ed but it was desired that the ded
ication be held before the departure
of Rev. Mr. Potwine for his new
field in Honolulu as he had been
identified with the Heppner church
for more than 20 years. Collections
that day were $50.07."
A telegram of congratulations was
read from Rev. B. Stanley Moore
and Mrs. Moore who were located
here when the parish house was
built.

CARD OF THANKS
We wish to thank all those who
assisted us at the time of our be
reavement and extend our apprecia
tion for the many words and deeds
of sympathy. We especially wish to
thank Heppner Lodge 69, A. F. & A.
M., for their consideration in giving
use of hall and helpful assistance.
Mrs. Charlotte Scherzinger,
Mrs. Rachel Stearns.
those prominently identified with the
lodge for more than a quarter cen
tury was paid by Bert Mason, ex
alted ruler. Resourcefulness of the
founders in making a lodge possible
in "the smallest city in the United
States with an Elks lodge" was cited
as acknowledgement of the size of
their accomplishment. That Elkdom
was founded on solid ground, said
Mr. Mason, is evidenced by the fact
that it has grown and prospered since
its small beginning 71 years before,
with 2500 lodges covering the United
States and territories and a mem
bership totaling half a million.
Elks ladies, who in the afternoon
were entertained at cards in Masonic
hall, joined lodge members in the
evening for the annual ball where
Bill Darby's 8-piece band from Port
land was joyfully received by the
many attending.

New Farm Act Built on
Old Conservation Base
The new AAA farm act which be
came effective February 16, when
President Roosevelt signed what is
known as the Agricultural Adjust
ment Act of 1938, continues and
strengthens the provisions of the
soil conservation and domestic al
lotment act under which the AAA
has been operating since the spring
of 1936, according to N. E. Dodd of
Haines, chairman of the State AAA
committee.
Plans previously made for putting
into operation the 1938 agricultural
conservation program will be car
ried out as originally intended. The
new bill adds to the present pro
gram such features as establishment
of marketing quotas when necessary
as an additional means of stabilizing
market supplies of cotton, tobacco,
rice, wheat and corn, and provides
for crop loans, crop insurance and
other additional features, r
The state college extension service,
working with the State' AAA com
mittee, will get out detailed infor
mation to the farmers concerning
the new act just as rapidly as possi
ble, says F. L. Ballard, vcie-director
of extension. As in the past, the pol
icy of the extension service is to
inform the people fully regarding
agricultural programs provided by
congress and help them reap all the
advantage possible from the appli
cation of such laws.
One of the most important new
features of the new bill provides for
the establishment of marketing quo
tas to be used in years of large sur
pluses, although only with the ap
proval, by a two-thirds vote, of the
farmers affected. In years when the
total supply of any of the five com
modities reaches a level consider
ably above the normal requirements
for domestic and export markets,
farmers who produce the crop com
mercially will vote whether to use
marketing quotas. If the vote is fa
vorable, quotas are put into effect for
all commercial producers of the crop.
Those who sponsored the bill say
that the marketing quotas should
give the nation adequate supplies of
the five crops with an ample reserve
in each case. Wheat is the only quota
crop grown in Oregon, and it is be
lieved unlikely that it will be af
fected in 1938.
CARD OF THANKS
My sincerest thanks and appre
ciation are extended for the kindly
help and sympathy of the many
Morrow county friends, and espec
ially to the Elks for their assistance.
Mrs. Etta Haines.
