CHURCHES
Lions Start Year
With Fresh Crew
When newly elected officers of
Heppner Lions club accept office
they do so at the risk of jeopardiz
ing the family budget, for regardless
of how popular they may have been
at election time, when voting is free
as the air one breathes, it costs
something to be inducted into office.
At least that s the rule when Tail i
Twister Clarence Bauman does the
inducting, as several Lions learned
Monday noon.
When elected two weeks ago.
Bauman warned the membership
that he intended to keep the little
tin bank well filled with nickels and
dimes and since Monday's experience
there are none to doubt his inten
tions. It's a case of paying if you
do or paying if you don't. The least
infraction of Lion laws or rules of
conduct will doubtless be the signal
fo the hard-boiled ex-marine to
shout, "That'll cost you a dime!"
First to fall victim to the tail
twister's greed was Lion Marius P.
Hanford, who assumed the office of
president. Hanford didn't give up
without an argument and before the
contest ended, Bauman also contri-

operation for some time. I
Mrs. Lucy E. Rodgers returned
Sunday from Salem and Portland
where she spent several days. At
Salem she attended the annual con
ference of the county superintend
ent's association, which ended Sat
urday. The conference opened Fri
day with an address by Governor
Charles A. Sprague. This, Mrs.
Rodgers says, was an unusual oc
currence, inasmuch as Governor
Sprague is the first man holding
that office to respond to- the invita
tion to appear on the program. Mrs.
Anne Sprague of Lake county was
elevated from the position of first
vice president to that of president
for the ensuing year.
Rev. James Wilkins and family
have arrived in Heppner from En
dicott, Wash., and will make their
home here. Rev. Wilkins is the new

Portland.

revolvers and other firearms; and on
toilet preparations.
- "Electrical energy will be taxed
at 3 1-3 percent of the amount of
each power company's monthly

the present rate of 3 percent.
Gasoline is taxed at IV2 cents per
gallon, and lubricating oil at 4
cents per gallon under the new law
an increase in each case of cent
per gallon.
"No increases were made in the
taxes on telephone, telegraph, cable,
or radio messages and facilities.
"Practically all of the taxes named
above were scheduled to expire in
1941; 'but they have been extended
by the new law to July 1, 1945. This
is also the case with several other
miscellaneous taxes, on which no
increase was made, but which would
have expired in 1941.
"My office will be very glad to
answer any questions on those taxes;
and I would urge that persons liable
to the floor taxes, especially the cig
arette floor tax, take their inventor
ies at once and write me for blanks
on which to file their returns," con
cluded Mr. Maloney.
