Page Eight Heppner Gazette Times, Heppner, Oregon Thursday, August 4, 1938 Four Adventuresses See Canadian Wilds On Three-Week Trip Photographer and Accountant Report Experiences to Lions . Miss Rose Leibbrand, protograph er, and Mrs. Lucy E. Rodgers, ac countant for a vacation party that included Miss Leta Humphreys and Mrs. Agnes Wilcox, reported their angles of a three-week trip through the Canadian Rockies before the Monday Lions luncheon. Most dis concerting experience was a mos quito raid at Bonners Ferry, Idaho, going. Among most pleasurable in cidents were an evening launch ride on Lake Louise, and tea at the fa mous lake hotel, though a night at Timberline lodge on Mt. Hood on the return was just about equal in nicety to anything experienced on the en tire trip. Miss Leibbrand told of "shooting" moose in the Canadian park, taking shots at Hazelton farthest point north touched and the present nor thern end of Three Flags highway in a heavy downpour, and again photographing clear views in the dense forest fire smoke encountered on the Olympic peninsula. They were completely equipped, photo graphically, for shooting anything, said Miss Leibbrand, and the rain feat was accomplished by means of periscope finder and protection of an umbrella. The smoke pictures were made with filter and infra-red film. The ladies stopped at auto camps, travelling in Miss Humphreys' car, ,and pooled expenses. The money was put in Mrs. Rodger's hands as cashier. Final tabulation after ar rival home showed that 3518 miles had been travelled at a total cost for car operation of $138.60, or $34.67 each. The largest amount paid for a cabin was at Banff, where luxur ious accommodations were obtained at $5 for one night. Among points of interest stressed was Fort St. James, original capital of Canada, where the large rambling hotel was equipped with fireplace faced in ore, reduction of which would yield $1000 in gold, it was said. Most of the Canadian road thru the mountains was washboardy ma cadam. Generator trouble at inter vals caused some grief, and a few storms were gone through that made prospects dark at times. So virgin was most of the country visited that Miss Leibbrand said she felt that Roy Chapman Andrews had nothing on them when it came to explor ation. An oddity of the trip was the pur chase of a small original Indian to tem pole by Miss Humphreys at Hazelton. Bargaining for it, as real Indian totem poles were not easily had, she purchased it for $2. She then expressed it home. On her return she found that it was still lying at the border awaiting pay ment of $1.60 duty. Miss Humphreys is slated to ap pear before the club next Monday to exhibit pictures which had not been printed when Miss Leibbrand spoke last Monday. Guests for the day included Mrs. F. W. Turner and Mrs. D. M. Ward. Frank C. Alfred was introduced as a new member. $15000 FIRE AT WIGTIIMAN'S Continued from First Page few years to bring the dairy under first class rating by the state milk control act. Included were expen sive pasteurizing and cooling equip ment and laying of concrete floor in the barn. It appeared possible that the concrete floor and concrete foundations might be reclaimable. NEWSY NEWS VIEWS Continued from First Page coach at Pacific university, hit Heppner last Friday afternoon on a scouting trip for football talent . . . he was looking specifically for John ny Hayes and La Verne Van Mar ter, guard and halfback respective ly on last fall's Mustang eleven. Folgate, a basketball referee of note, is of the opinion that the Oregon Oregon State series is the toughest working of any in the northern di vision. Strange as it may seem, this little ditty is intended to be humorous not sarcastic . . . Henry Aiken, Lee Beckner and Harlan McCurdy, the boys who control the say-so in all Rodeo affairs, have ordered new sad dles from Gene Noble . . . using the Noble production while astride rambulating, four-footed Strawberry Roans, this trio of gentlemen, ac cording to secret dispatches, are said to be physically able of sitting in a saddle only once a year, that during Rodeo . . . that's why Aiken, Beck ner and McCurdy are called the "three-day cowboys." Yipee! Political items . . . The state con vention of Oregon Republican club will be held at Salem, Sept. 16-17-18 ... all G. O. P.'s are strongly invited. Since no party members from the 22nd district were nominated in the primaries as candidates for the house of representatives in the state legis lature, the Democrats are planning to put a couple of names on the bal lot this November . . . the would-be state congressmen, according to Han son Hughes, wiil probably be select ed from Morrow or Sherman coun ties. Those on the inside seem to think that the unannounced queen can didate from Lena will be the girl who went to school in Heppner three years, stayed out one, then finished this spring at Lexington. Town talk ... A few counterfeit dollars have been floating around town the last few days, so keep your eyes open; your riches may be la den with illegal money. If the re maining grange dances are as good as the one at Rhea creek last week, then it's a well-known fact that the Saturday night fun-seekers are in for some glee at Lena and lone. A check-up will probably be made in the near future on autos with in adequate lighting facilities, namely, those with only one light Notice . . . Watch for the girls with the ruffled skirts, bustles, and close ly allied fittings!!!
