Mrs. Mary Kenny
Came to County in '83
Death claimed a Morrow county
pioneer early Saturday morning
in the passing of Mrs. Michael
Kenny at her home in Hepp
ner. Mrs. Kenny was stricken early
in the week and death was not un
expected. All members of her fam
ily, including children, grand child
ren and great grandchildren had
visited her following the stroke and
these and many other near relatives
were in attendance at the funeral
services Monday morning.
Final rites were held at 11 o'clock
a. m., Monday, Rev. Richard Healy,
pastor of St Patrick's church, offi
ciating. A requiem mass was held
at the church at 8 o'clock. Inter
ment was in the Heppner cemetery,
A crowd overflowing the church
and extending into the churchyard
turned out to pay a last tribute of
respect to one who had been a good
mend and neighbor for so many
years. Many came from outside the
county, some from as far as western
Washington and central Idaho.
Mary Doherty was born in
Londonderry, Ireland, May 16, 1865
She came to this county in 1883 and
settled in the Sand Hollow district,
the Kenny homestead being located
in what is known as Kenny canyon,
The original homestead taken by
Mr. Kenny has remained in their
possession since with many additions
to make their holdings extensive.
They engaged in the sheep business
and like many of their countrymen
settling in this region were success
ful. In 1916 Mr. and Mrs. Kenny
, moved to Heppner to give their
children school advantages. They
remained in town until 1924 when
they resumed management of the
ranch. They remained there until
August, 1939, again taking up their
residence in town.
Surviving Mrs. Kenny besides the
husband are five children, John
Kenny, Mrs. Sarah Farley, Mrs. An
na Healy, Joe Kenny and Mrs. Ce
celia Bucknum, all residents of the
county; 20 grandchildren and two
great grandchildren. Three sons
born to Mr. and Mrs. Kenny preced
ed the mother in death.
Eight grandsons were pallbearers
at Mrs. Kennys funeral.

They moved to Morrow county in
the year 1902 taking up a homestead
north of lone and by hard labor and
perseverence carved for themselves

Scott preceded his wife in death,

der Tractors, burning
low-cost fuels successfully
and efficiently, are sending power costs down to
new low levels in all sections of the country.
Users are reporting amazing savings on low
cost fuel alone. For instance, many are operat
ing their John Deere Model "II" tractors for as
little as 2 cents an acre in cultivating.
Measuring fuel economy on a dollars and
cents basis the way it should be measured
impartial tests show that five different makes
of tractors using low-grade gasoline do only
71.6 as much work as a John Deere Tractor
with $1.00 worth of low-cost fuel, and that nine
other makes burning' regular gasoline do only
66.6 as much work as a John Deere on $1.00
worth of low-cost fuel.
These impartial tests furnish convincing
proof that your fuel dollar goes farther in a
John Deere. Come in and make us prove it.

ther has made her home with her
son until the last two years when
her infirmities made hospital care
a necessity.
Her friends will long remember
her industrious and energetic dis
position, hospitality being the key
note of her character.
Mrs. Scott belonged to the Chris
tian Union church and as long as
possible was an active member of
the same, always leading a sincere
Christian life.
She passed away March 23, 1940,
in Heppner, Oregon, at the age of 83
years and was laid to rest in the
Heppner cemetery beside her hus
band. Surviving are her son, O. M Scott
of Heppner, and three sisters, Eliz

Jury System Text
of Lions Discussion
Good and bad points of the Am
erican jury system were aired be
fore the Lions club Monday when
Frank C. Alfred, county attorney,
presented the subject for discussion.
Mr. Alfred, as program chairman
for the month, opened discussion
with a brief talk on the question
of whether the present system should
be abolished. He pointed out some
of the faults of the system and of
fered as a possible substitute the
French form of trial by judges.
Citing the lack of experience of
the average layman in matters of
law, but not decrying the fact, Al
fred said that a hearing of the av
erage case before three judges, such
as has been recommended in the
past, should prove to be more econ
omical as well as result in clearer
interpretation of the law. He also
contended for more practical train
ing of school children in matters of
law with a view to preparing them
for jury service when the time
comes for them to enter into the
job of carrying on the government.
J. O. Turner agreed with Alfred
on most points except the matter of
the jury, which, he contended, has
more leeway in interpreting a case
than the judge system would have,
holding to the thought that a jury
has more of an opportunity to con
sider the human element and would
be more apt to render a decision
based on that kind of justice than
would the judges.
A piano solo by "Lioness" Mar-
jorie Parker was the musical offer
ing for the luncheon.
HUGH ROSSON VISITS
Hugh Rosson of Salem, until re
cently engaged in highway educa
tional work with the secretary of
state's office, was in Heppner Fri
day in the interest of the candidacy
of Ralph M. Cake of Portland, who
seeks the post of republican nation
al committeeman from Oregon. Ros
son was perfecting county organi
zation and chose J. V. Crawford as
chairman for Morrow county.
