Morrow Pomona Has
Interesting Meeting
By MARY LUNDELL
Morrow County Pomona grange
met at Lena on Saturday, Oct. 5th.
The host grange proved its hospital
ity with two sumptuous meals serv
ed to some fifty or more persons.
Some of the Pomona official fam
ily will have to visit the Lena grange
more often so that they may learn
the road. We are not telling who got
lost, but there were more than one
who turned to the left instead of the
right. ' ,
Dr. Carl Thompson, member of
Russellville grange in Multnomah
county was the guest speaker on
the lecturer's program. Dr. Thomp
son is not only an able speaker but
very entertaining as well. He held
the attention of both young and old
during his discourse on electric pow
er, its uses in the business world,
on the farm and in the home. L. R.
Rambo, coordinator for the local
REA project and O. L. Lundell, one
of the REA directors, presented pic
tures and told something of the local
set-up.
Entertaining numbers were pre
sented by the subordinate granges
of the county, including vocal se
lections, several readings and reci
tations and a stunt which included
several of the dignitaries.
A letter of greeting and much in
formation from Walter Pierce was
read and all appreciated hearing
from an old grange member and
friend.
The Oregon state grange sponsor
ed, during the canning season, a
contest with sugar as its basis, thus
advertising an Oregon product.
The display from Morrow County
grangers was judged by the home
economics instructor from Heppner
schools and Mrs. Lucy Rodgers.
First, second and third prizes in
the various departments receive 50,
25 and 10 pound sacks of the sugar.
The first prize jars will be sent to
state grange headquarters where
final judgment will be made on
October 21st.
The lucky few from Morrow coun
ty Pomona were: 1st in canned .fruits,
Geneva Palmer; 2nd in canned
fruits, Geneva Palmer; third for
canned fruits, Faye Finch; 1st for
preserves, Mary Lundell; 2nd for
preserves, Faye Finch; 1st for jelly,
Faye Finch.
' Next year the contest will pro
bably be featured again and we
trust that many more will enter. The
state prizes are quite valuable and
include an electric stove, refrigera
tor, and other equally valuable el
ectric equipment.
The county tax question was sub
ject of much discussion. The sub
ordinate granges are urged to ap
point a tax and assessment com
mittee, the purpose to help come to
an equalization and lowering of
taxes. The Pomona committee will
meet sometime during October.
The next Pomona meeting will be
held the first Saturday in January
at Willows grange hall, with Willows
grange as hosts, and Lexington
grange exemplifying the degree
work.
