Mayor Jones Issues Poppy Proclamation Saturday, May 23, was designated as Poppy Day in a proclamation is sued today by Mayor Jeff Jones. The proclamation urged all citizens to observe the day by wearing me morial poppies in honor of the World War dead. It stated: "When the United States was plunged into the World War in 1917, the city of Heppner responfled to the nation's call in a spirit of exalted pa triotism. The citizens of the city of fered their efforts and their means in the nation's defense, serving and sacrificing in the national cause. The City of Heppner holds in proud memory its part in the great national effort which brought victorious peace in 1918. "Many young men were called into the armed services and some of them were called upon to sacrifice their lives in that service upon the battle fields of France. There, over their graves, a little flower sprang up and blossomed, nature's tribute to the heroic dead. It was the poppy, and their comrades ask Americans to wear a poppy in their memory, one day of each year. On Saturday, May 21, the American Legion and the American Legion Auxiliary will dis tribute these memorial poppies in our city. "Therefore, I, Mayor of the City of Heppner, do hereby proclaim Sat urday, May 21, to be Poppy Day in the City of Heppner, and I urge all citizens observe the day by wearing the memorial poppy in order that the inspiring memory of those who made the highest patriotic sacrifice during the war may be recalled to every mind.

FISH NOT RUNNING Just to determine whether any trout were running up Willow creek, Herbert Hynd of Cecil fished the lower end of the creek assiduously last Sunday, and reported when in town yesterday that the best he could show for his efforts were a few suckers and chubs. The trout just aren't there, he said. He believed that if any trout were going to come up the creek this year they would be doing it now as the water is the most favorable it will be at any time this year This last investigation was made to further substantiate his po sition taken before a recent meet ing of the Morrow County Hunters and Anglers club that any consider able expense in fixing up the creek to encourage finny visitirs is not justifiable.
