FARM HOME BURNS
Fire destroyed the farm home of
Mr. and Mrs. Dan Bishop on lower
Rhea creek Sunday morning. A few
personal belongings were saved but
all other contents were destroyed.
An overheated stove is given as
the cause. Mr. Bishop arose early
and built a fire, in the heating
stove, leaving shortly to do the
milking. Mrs. Bishop remained in
bed and soon smelled smoke. Get
ting up to see what was wrong
she quickly discovered the reason
and called her husband. Neighbors
gathered in as soon as the fire was
visible from a distance but could
offer little assistance.
Mrs. Bishop is staying in Hepp
ner temporarily and her husband
is occupying the bunkhouse 6n the
Burroughs 'place until living quar
ters can be arranged at home.
WORD OF APPRECIATION
We wish to thank our neighbors
for their assistance during the fire
wich destroyed our home, and for
their tenders of aid in replenish
ing our clothing and other supplies.
It is reassuring to know there are
so many good people in the world.
Mr. and Mrs. Dan Bishop
Mr. and Mrs. Jackson Gilliam
will reach Heppner Sunday to
spend the holidays with family and
friends. Jackson is the son of Mr.
and Mrs. Earl Gilliam, and has just
returned from two years over seas
duty in the Pacific area. He re
ceived his discharge at Fort Lewis
on the 11th and he and Mrs. Gilliam
have been visiting in Seattle and
Spokane.
Mrs. Emery Coxen has written
her Darents. Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth
Blake, that her husband has been
transferred from the 3rd marine di
vision to the army of occupation
and has no idea how soon he will
bp coming home. Mrs. Coxen was
home for a brief visit a few weeks
fn and hastened back to Chula
Vista Calif., because she thought
her husband would return to the
States momentarily, and now this.
It is to be hoped that the lowering
of required discharge points will
help Emery and the rest of the men
so anxious to return to their own
firesides.
REA to Send Man . . .
Continued from First Page
to subscribe to the service and it is
the hope of the REA that all of
them wll join the movement.
The REA asks that the local unit
sign up for 600 KVA of Bonneville
power and that amount is being
negotiated for fit the present time.
The sub-station will be located at
lone, with lines extending to the
rural areas from there and Baker
was not sure that the extensions
to Gilliam, Wheeler and Grant
counties would be served from
there.
but the handicap was overcome and
the chorus added another successful
performance to the group's grow
ing list of triumphs.
The program included a group
of Christmas carols, Bach-Goun
od's Ave Maria, Lo Now a Rose, a
sixteenth century carol, and "Lis
ten to the Lambs". The latter num
ber is the work of a great negro
composer, Dett, and was used for
the first time here Sunday evening.
Following the vesper service the
chorus and husbands and a few
friends assembled at the Orville
Smith home where a bountiful
turkey supper was served and a
pleasant evening spent.
