Musical Program Delightful Affair Friday evening an appreciative audience gathered to enjoy the program at the gym which the var ious musical organizations of the Heppner school offered as the high light of the year's activity. The senior band furnished the opening and closing numbers. In between were grade choruses, girls' high school chorus and beginners' band. All numbers showed consistent effort and were pleasing to the listeners. The pitch was true, at tention excellent and tone quality very good. Most of the performers acted as if they were enjoying the concert and knew what they were about The unusual numbers,, of course, were the two songs by the boy ' soprano choir. Their pure tones and high clear notes were a real delight. '- The music classes have done fine -work this year, making it possible to turn out an evening's offering of good quality, and a larger crowd should have greeted their efforts. It was well worth hearing. lone, Lexington to Offer School Plays People of the. county will not ,.be lacking in entertainment this week e nd, what with school plays sched uled in two. places for Friday and Saturday evenings.

Seeks Congress Seat LaMar Townsend of Klamath Falls, candidate or the democratic nomination for representative in congress from the second Oregon district, was' a visitor in Heppner Friday. Townsend has been a prac ticing attorney in Klamath Falls for 16 years. FOREST FIRE TANGENTS Until the new green fern grows up higher than the old dead,, dry growth of last year forest fire ha zards are at their near-worst. Sev eral forest fires which started from brush burnings that got into dry fern gave the state forestry depart ment trouble last week. None of them, however, were out of control for long. "The east wind is full of dynamite," says Assistant State Forester Lynn Cronemiller, who with years of experience and ob servation, can predict just about when and where forest fires are due. Why the east wind should be so hot ahd drying no one seems to know, and slashers cannot be blamed for doing their burning dur ing this season. Good advice! Don't burn slashings during an east wind or for several days after.. Wait for a shower. State and private timber owners V i in Oregon spent $2,823,892 in 1945 to set an all-time recod. The state spent $229,458 of the years total while 51,061,176 was contributed by various protective associations and $1,638,132 by the timber owners and operators. This large expenditure was not due so much to the serious fire situation of last year as to the increased cost of help and materials.
