two ball games which was the main
attraction.

Local Girl Evokes
Bay Paper's Praise
Recently Eileen Kelly of Heppner
submitted a poem to the San Fran
cisco Call Bulletin. The verse was
not published but a columnist on
the paper gave her a paragraph in
which it is stated that Eileen has
a promising future as a writer.
The columnist is Elenore Meherin
and she comments as follows:
"Is youth the happiest time of
life? Or is it too filled with tumult
and uncertainty? I have half a
dozen poems sent in by youngsters.
I wish I had space to print them.
They're so sweet, yet so intensely
sad. '
"Eileen Kelly (daughter of E. A.
Kelly of Heppner) who is only 16
but a promising young writer from
Oregon, titles her stanza, "Youth."
When Eileen is 60 she won't be more
poignantly aware of the briefness of
our little moment here, nor more
gently regretful of chances lost."
Eileen's teachers in Heppner high
school verify Columnist Meherin's
comment, stating that she shows ex
ceptional talents in literary work.
One of her poems graces the title
page in the 1940 Hehisch, student
annual.
Indian School to
Present Pageant
Heppner Lions and any other local
people who may be interested have
received an invitation from the Sa
lem Lions club to attend the Che
mawa Indian celebration being held
at the school this week end. Some
of the local club remember the fine
Indian breakfast served at the school
last June at the time of the Lions
state convention held in Salem and
know something of the ability of
the Indians to entertain.
Over 500 Indians from all parts
of the northwest are expected at
Chemawa to take part in the three
day celebration starting today.
Some of the attractive features will
be the tepee village on the campus,
the Indian baby show, Indian tribal
dances, school pageant and large
displays of Indian handicraft.
Some 200 students will take part
in the pageant, "Thunder Mountain,"
to be presented Thursday and Fri
day nights, May 23 and 24. The
piece was written entirely by a for
mer student of Chemawa and the
dances, songs and ceremonials used
are unique and of Indian origin.
It will be given in an outdoor set
ting. Rock Creek Yields
Big Trout to Boy
Fishing was good on Rock creek
Sunday, according to Robert Hos
kins, son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred
Hoskins of Rhea creek. Robert
caught a nice mess of trout, one of
them measuring 18 inches and
weighing two pounds. He fished in
the vicinity of the Wyland place
and had caught some average size
trout. When he got a strike that
almost jerked the pole out of his
hand he was one surprised youth.
Although only 14 years of age,
Robert is the fisherman of the fam
ily, according to his father, who
was exhibiting the catch in Hepp
ner Monday morning.-
Gazette Times, Heppner,
Poppy Day Date
Slated for May 25
Poppy Day will be observed in
Heppner and throughout the nation
on May 25, the Saturday before
Memorial Day, Mrs. Lena Cox, pres
ident of Heppner unit of the Am
erican Legion Auxiliary, announced
today. On that day all Americans
will be asked to wear memorial pop
pies in tribute to the World War
dead and to aid the living victims
of the war.
The little red memorial flowers
., t.,"L cu 'f""1?
WU1 w cusinDuiea nere by women
and girls of the Heppner unit, under
the direction of Mrs. May Gilliam,
chairman of the Poppy Day com
mittee. All contributions received
for the popies will go to Legion and
Auxiliary welfare work for the dis
abled veterans, ther families and the
families of the dead.
"We feel that Poppy Day will
have increased meaning to America
this year," said Mrs. Lena Cox, "be
cause renewed warfare in Europe
has renewed the memory of those
boys of ours who gave their lives
'over there' twenty-two years ago.
It is for them that we put on the
poppy each year, to show that we
still remember and honor their sac
rifices. It is the flower which grew
where they fell and which now
blooms on the coats of Americans
who appreciate their service.
"Events of the past year have
shown us clearly that to be secure
the United States must have men
ready and able to defend the coun
try, willing to give their lives in its
defense, if necessary. We can be
thankful today that we had such
men twenty-two years ago. From
them we can draw inspiration for
the patriotic service necessary to
maintain our freedom and democ
racy against today's dangers. Wear
ing their flower over our hearts
means that within our hearts their
love of America still lives."
Mr. and Mrs. Barton Clark of
Monument were Heppner visitors
the past week. Mr. Clark is princi
pal of the Monument school.
