JUNIOR CLASS TO
PRESENT PLAY
Friday, March 17, Date Set for
Presentation of "The Lucky
Accident," at Gym-Auditorium
Just one week from tomorrow on
Friday, March 17, in the high school
gym-auditorium, the junior class
will present the three-act farcical
comedy, "The Lucky Accident."
Curtain is promptly at 8 and the
length of the play will not interfere
with plans of those wishing to go
to the St. Patrick's dance.
A summary of the play is as fol
lows: Leslie Noyes, played by Don
Jones, is in love with Fern Hunter
(Norma Prock) and is anxious to
marry her. Fern favors his suit, but
Mrs. Hunter (Carolyn Vaughn), her
mother, claims that Leslie is much
too stupid to marry into the Hunt
er family. So when Walton Knox
(Harry Tamblyn), a former resident
of the town they live in, returns
home and Ls obviously a great fi
nancial success in the business world,
Mrs. Hunter gives a party in Wal
ton's honor and does all she can to
further his suit. It happens that Wal
ton, too, is enamored of Fem's
charms.
Then Les Noyes meets with an ac
cident! Stopping to tie his shoelace
under a falling ladder, he receives
a head injury. Doctors are summon
ed and the forehead is bandaged.
From the moment that Les receives
his blow on the head, his entire de
meanor changes, in fact, he becomes
an entirely different person. He en
gages a loft and leases it for a year,
using it to manufacture one of his
inventions. However, wnen nis
friends hear what the invention is,
they immediately think his senses
have taken another vacation.
When the bandage is removed, it
is discovered that the bump that
everyone thought was responsible
for Les's newly acquired brilliance
has healed, and the accident that he
suffered was in reality a lucky one.
To show the effects are permanent,
he puts over a smart business coup
and becomes one of the town's most
enterprising business men.
Other talent displayed will be:
Nellie Lawson, Jeanette Blakely,
who collects magazine coupons;
Grace Pike, Cora Scott, who col
lects evidence; Lotta Noyes, Margar
et Doolittle, a society matron; tio-
mer Miginness, Harold Armstrong,
a wealthy business man; Amelda
Ames, Lois Jones, a housemaid who
cannot collect her salary; Honey
Hunter, Shirley Wilson, their young
est daughter, who collects secrets;
Humbird Hunter, Kemp Dick, the
husband, who cannot collect any
thing.

CITY BUYS PUMPIN PLANT
Continued from First Page
which all installations must of nec
essity comply.
With J. Logie Richardson, Arnold
Sharp and John Skuzeski taking the
lead, a delegation appeared before
the council asking that peddlers
competing with local business houses
be made to pay something for the
privilege to partly offset the money
local business firms pay for taxes
and other purposes that tend to
make Heppner grow. While it was
cited that Heppner has the "Green
River" ordinance which, in other
places has effectively prevented ped
dlers from trespassing upon private
property, there does not appear suf
ficient regulation of all types of
competition, the delegation said. Mr.
Richardson proposed that a privilege
license be placed upon every busi
ness in the city to assist in protect
ing all business against the tran
sient competition.
Following the delegation's hear
ing, Mayor Bleakman appointed
Councilmen Mahoney, Ferguson and
Tibbies as a committee to investi
gate what procedure might be taken
to satisfy the degelation's desires.
Council voted unanimously to
contribute $100 to the box factory
site fund", with those speaking on
the subject expressing the belief that
all property within the city will
benefit, hence is entitled to stand
part of the cost. Mr. Mahoney,
speaking for the solicitation com
mittee, reported that the county
court had likewise contributed $100
because of the favorable reflection
upon property values the box factory
would make generally over the
county.

Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Kleinfeldt
have accepted a call to the church
at Burley, Idaho, so this will be their
last Sunday in Heppner. Farewell
messages will be given Sunday
morning and evening in this church,
This will come as a surprise to
many of our dear friends. Some feel
it will be a set-back to the church.
We have never thought it would or
we would have never made the de
cision to leave. Often we have felt
that another minister would be able
to help those whom we have failed
to reach. In a short time another
minister will be here and the work
will continue and grow. Through al
of these days of decision we have
sought the' Master's guidance and
have tried to follow His will.
Throughout the past four years
and two months we have been happy
here among many loyal and secri
ficing Christians and with little ex
ception the work has been pleasant,
This length of time is over the av
erage for our smaller churches and
is the average for the last four min
isters who served this church. The
prospects at Burley indicate a long
and happy ministry there.
We regret to part from the fine
supporters of the church and the
splendid young people who have
worked with us. It is also hard to
say good-bye to friends in other
churches and some who have be'
longed to no church and to fellow
ministers. Our hope is that the com
munity will respond immediately to
the support of our successors so that
they may carry on from where we
leave off.

Grange Sets Vote
On Building Site
By MRS. E. M. BAKER
The building committee of Wil
lows grange has been working for
some time to obtain a suitable site
for a new hall. We have tried to
obtain a site on the Seymour Wilson
property on Willow creek but since
we have been unable to do so, we
have had to look elsewhere for
site. Several people have offered to
donate sites and after looking at all
these we have chosen the best two.
Ralph Akers will donate a site on
the north side of the highway and
at the east end of his property. This
is at the east end of the flat across
from the Akers house.
Elmer Griffith will donate a site
on his property, which joins the
Morgan school grounds on the north,
At the next regular " meeting of
Willows grange on March 11 these
two sites will be discussed and voted
upon. All members are urged to be
present to vote on this question. This
is a question which is of vital im
portance to every member and to
the future of our grange, so be
present to cast your vote.
As soon as the question of a site
is settled, plans will go forward in
preparation for building the hall
which we plan to build later this
spring.
The meeting on March 11 will be
gin promptly at 8 o'clock and fol
lowing the meeting there will be a
dance to which the public is invited,

ED CIHNN, Prop.
Wash., he had long service with
both General Motors and Ford in
factory and as travelling service man
for many years, operated Chevrolet
garage at Waitsburg in 1927. Mis
fortune caused Mr. and Mrs. Walker
to lose one boy and a girl within a
year's time. The youngset son was
born at the Tom Boylen farm near
Pine City, this county, when Mr.
Walker was a service man on the
road and duty called him there. The
Walkers have a farm adjoining that
of Emerson Wheeler, newspaper
man, at Waitsburg. Just for oddity's
sake, Mr. Walker says that while
he and his family lived at Waits
hurg at widely spaced intervals, res
idence in the Washington town was
so spaced that himself and each of
his boys started to school in the
same primer and the same room in
the Waitsburg school.
