attractive gifts, and the refresh
ments were delicious.

At the end of the week B. H.
Bleakman, Ed McDaniel, Earl Red
ding, Fan Miller, Buster Bleakman
and Mr. Lundell came in from the

at least good enough to take most
of the men back the early part of
this week. Mr. Bleakman is ill and
will not return at this time.
Larry Lovgren, small son of Mr.
and Mrs. Victor Lovgren, had his
tonsils and adenoids removed Sat

near Spray. He reported a nice rain
in that country.
Mrs. Raymond Reid came down
Monday from the mill and spent the
day in town. Her sister, Miss Pat
Bleakman, returned with her for a
few days' visit.
Last Sunday the rain storm be
tween here and Heppner was so se
vere that Rev. Young was not able
to get out here for church services,
although he started and came as far
as he could. He will be here for
Sunday school and church next Sun
day, however, and the time is
o'clock for Sunday school with
church following. On the following
Sunday Mr. Clark of the Christian
church will be here and on each
Sunday thereafter some one will be
out to hold services here.
The weather has been varied
enough for any writer's taste, but
we did not get the rainfall that most
of the neighboring places, even
Heppner, enjoyed. There have been
clouds all week but each day there
has also been sunshine part of the
time. Even the electric storms so
far have never been frightening.

Oregon
Cities' Ordinance
Books Streamlined
University of Oregon, Eugene,
May 23 New books containing all
live city ordinances, carefully in
dexed and classified, have been com
pleted for three Oregon cities, Pen
dleton, Hillsboro and Sutherlin, it
was announced by Herman Kehrli,
director of the University of Ore
gon bureau of muncipal research.
The work, which brought the or
dinance books up-to-date and elim
inated all obsolete civic legislation,
was done as a part of a state-wide
WPA project under the supervision
of the bureau and the League of
Oregon Cities.
The book, "Looking Backward"
is not a treatise on accident pre
vention, but there might well be
such a book with that title, believes
Earl Snell, secretary of state. Dur
ing the first three months of 1939, 568
Oregon drivers backed themselves
into accidents, 16 of them resulting
in injuries. Examiners for the motor
vehicle operators' division frequent
ly find applicants who have diffi
culty learning to back properly,
Snell said.
