Willows Grange
To Elect on 11th
By MARY LUNDELL
On the regular meeting night, No
vember 11, Willows grange will hold
election of officers for 1940. In these
elections, members should keep in
mind the good of the order a per
son who will make a splendid lee
turer may make a poor master, or
one who is endowed with executive
ability would be material wasted
as gatekeeper. We would not think
of electing a musician who does not
know something of music, so should
we keep in mind the ability and
personnel of the officers-elect.
Quite a number of visitors at the
new grange hall have expressed en
thusiasm and pleasure at the extent
of the project and the recent prog
ress made on the building.
At the last meeting of the grange
four new members were elected to
membership, adding to the total re
instated and initiated since the last
Pomona meeting.
The grange secretary, Helen Lind
say, is welcoming the few members
who still are in arrears for dues.
Miss Lindsay is anxious to make
these collections so that Willows
grange may go on record as an hon
or grange for 1939. If you- happen
to be one of the belated few, please
see or write the secretary.
TO PLAY ARLINGTON AGAIN
The annual argument between Ar
lington and Heppner as to whose
football team is the best was satis
fied as far as the Heppner Mustangs
were concerned in the game here
two weeks ago. However, the Hon
kers were far from convinced by
their 19-20 loss and so have chal
lenged the Mustangs to a return
game. Heppner boys still think that
they have the best team and so were
anxious to oblige the Honkers. As
a result the return game will be
played at Arlington oh Saturday,
Nov. 18.
