If We Hod A Fovorite . . .
U we had a favorite campaign fund we think it
would be the current drive in behalf of the Ameri
can Cancer Society. With evidences of the ravages
of cancer on every hand it is the No. 2 killer it
Bcems if one had to choose between the several
funds for which we are solicited throughout the
year It would be easier to subscribe to this par
ticular campaign.
Somehow it doesn't seem that a house-to-house
campaign should be mwssury to raise the tenta
tive quota assigned to Morrow county. If each
and every family and individual were to give
something there would be no need of putting
pressure on those upon whom we look as "money
ed" folks. What do you say we try this plan and
put this drive over w ithout ar.y kind of pressure
Belling. Send in your gift to the county chairman.
Merle Eecket, and help him clear up the drive
before this month is gone.
Will It BeStassen?
The manner in which Harold Stassen has cap
tured delegates from the three states where his
name has been on the preferential ballot puts him
30 YEARS A
out in front as a vote-getter and from this dis
tance the leading contender for the Republican
nomination. But there are hurdles to surmount
between now and convention time and unless the
big Minnesotan can egotiate them he will come
up shy enough delegates to win. His free-lance
campaign has demonstrated what a man can do
by taking his cause directly to the people and
the run he has made so far should be worthy the
consideration of party leaders in choosing a stand
ard bearer for the fall campaign. He is a firm
believer in the American tradition, has confidence
in the American people to work out their destiny
and has a most laudable ambition to lead them in
their battle for peace throughout the world.
Those who had the privilege of hearing Mrs.
Lois Beil Sandall Saturday evening deeply regret
that many more of our citizens were not accorded
the same privilege. It is seldom that a town the
size of Heppner can command recognition from
one of Mrs. Sandall's stature and those within the
range of her cultivated voice Saturday evening
feel decidedly fortunate, for she is one of the out
standing women of the country and one whose
council and advice are sought in high places.

Made of Milk!
Fellow in Andy Bntkin's Tavern
was boasting about a trick necktie
he was wearing made out of a by
product of milk. "Took 3.1 pounds
of milk to make this tie," he says.
Eill Webster was unimpressed.
"Personally," he says, "I'd rather
have the milk to drink. Just as I
wouldn't charge one glass of good
American beer for a necktie made
from thirty barrels of it!"
Yes, modern science being what
it is seems like you can make
"anything out of anything" these
days. But in the case of milk, well
I guess drinking it is still a whole
lot better than just wearing it.
Of course there are lots of other
ways of abusing goods and bev
erageslike a ifellow who doesn't
appreciate good beer enough to
drink it slowly and in moderation.
But from where I sit, most peo
ple who enjoy a wholesome bev
erage like beer or ale ore moderate
because beer itself is a btvtrag
of moderation.
