Well Woith The Effort
There were many people throughout the coun
ty, and particularly n Heppner, who were skepti
cal about the outcome ol the 1M9 county fair and
rodeo. This vas in evidence among those respon
sible for putting on the combined shows, for, like
the athletic coach who has put forth his best ef
forts to prepare his team and knows his boys are
good, there is that breathless uncertainty, that
"butterflies in the stomach" fooling until the
game gets underway, and then not feeling reliev
ed until the game is well over. Fair board and
committeemen were satisfied they were preparing
for the best show ever, yet they were not justified
In relaxing until exhibitors began filing in with
their products, and the cash customers showed on
the first day that they fully approved of the high
class performance in the rodeo arena.
With all due respect to previous fairs and ro
deos, it Is safe to say that the 1949 show was tops.
Not alone was the exhibiting just a little better
(and some of it a lot better), but the reception by
the public was such that it was reflected in the
efforts of the performers.
It was reassuring to see the manner in which
the exhibits have increased over the first fair.
Not only has the 4 H club division expanded, but
private exhibitors were more numerous this year
all coming in with high class stuff that taxed
the resources of the judges in deciding upon the
winners. At the rate the fair is growing it will
be necessary for the board to acquire use of all
the land set aside for that purpose. More build
ings are needed, could have been used this year,
and the time is at hand when construction of an
exhibition hall and pavilion is most desirable.
This newspaper wishes to join with the throngs
who visited the fair and rodeo in complimenting
the officers and directors upon the fine show and
for the progress being made towards full realiza
tlon of the slogan used in this year's advertising

KIN2UA NEWS
By ELSA M. LEATHERS
High school opened Monday at
Fossil, where the Kinzua young
people go by bus. Naval Sitton is
the driver. School Is beine held in
the Wheeler county courthouse
A new feature of the fair and rodeo, while not
actually a part of the regular program, was the
all-Morrow county picnic sponsored by Heppner
Chamber of Commerce and fostered by the county
court. Held in the park at the rear of the court
house immediately following the parade Saturday
morning and attracting approximately 300 people,
it is hoped that this will be marked as the first
annual all-county picnic and that next year more
local people will find it possible to join with the
people of other communities in making it a big,
happy gathering.
s
Whoever remarked "the parade's the thing"
knew what he was talking about. Saturday's pa
rade elicited more favorable comment than any
thing seen here in recent years. Visitors from
neighboring and distant counties were most gen
erous in their praise, some saying it would be
easy to forget that one was in a small town with
a parade of that length and excellence passing.
It was a showing of community spirit seldom seen
in a town the size of Heppner and if the enthus
iasm from this year's parade holds up until next
year we may look for something still bigger in
1950.
In passing, it is only fair to commend the fair
board on its choice of a carnival. The Redwood
Empire Shows is among the best on the road to
day. The kiddie rides were an answer to the
young mind's dream and there was something of
interest for everybody. Insistence that there be
no improper conduct on the grounds called for
several special police but this added expense bore
fruit in the form of clean entertainment and com
mendation from parents. A return engagement
by this company will be looked upon with favor
by the people of this section.

Health For All
OVERWEIGHT
The best reducing exercise, it
is said, is moving the head from
right to left and then back again
wnenever we are offered a second
helping of food at the table.
This implies that overweight is
usually due to over-eating. While
there are some cases of over
weight caused by glandular trou
blt that only medical treatment
ble that only medical treatment
on extra pounds simply because
they over-are or ate too much of
the wrong kinds of food.
The body is like an engine that
requires a certain amount of fuel
each day to operate efficiently.
When it gets more fuel, in the
way of food, than it needs or can
use up, it stores this fuel in the
form of fat. To lose its surplus
weight, the body must burn up
more fuel each day than it takes
in daily in food.
Where overweight is due to
wrong eating, heavy people are
usually the ones who have trou
ble cutting d0wn on fattening
foods. It is easier for most peo
ple to lose weight during the hot
:.;mmer months because their ap
pt tite demands less of the heavy,
fat-producing foods than it does
in cooler weather.
The person who is seriously
overweight and needs to lose a
great number of pounds should
do so under his doctor s direction
and supervision.
Those who diet must make cer
tain they are eating enough of
the right foods to keep them look
ing and feeling well. The fat per
son needs the nourishment found
in milk fruits, vegetables and
lean meats as much as anyone
else. But he can and should cut
down on such foods as sugais,
fats, and starches which supply
a lot of fuel and, therefore, fat
but are low in the minerals and
vitamns that the body requires to
keep well.
Overweight is not a direct
cause of death. But too much
flesh, especially in adults and
older persons, can cause a need
less strain on the heart and the
circulatory system which can lead
to serious illness and death.
The overweight person who re
duces wisely will find his re
ward in looking and feeling better.

Jenner's evaluation of the situa
tion every time he blames the
Southern Democrats and the Re
publicans for the long and inact
ive first session of the 81st Dem
ocrat Congress.
If Senator Lucas wishes to
place the blame where it really
belongs he need only read Presi
dent Truman's speech of March
21, 1939, before the.Missouri state
legislature.
At that time President Truman
was a new member oi tne unnea
States senate, and had returned
to his native state to tell the leg
islature all about his job in
Washington.
In the course of his remarks he
said:
"I found out very soon after I
had settled down to a study of
my duties that the business of a
good legislator is not to get
things done quickly and effici
ently, as a good administrator
has to do, but to prevent, if possi
ble, the enactment into the law
of the land many crazy and
crackpot measures."
That is just what the 81st Con
gress is doing; preventing enact
ment into the law of the land
many "crazy and crackpot mea
sures" which seem to come from
the White House
As President, Mr. Truman has
constantly been at loggerheads
with the legislators on Capitol
Hill During the Democrat-controlled
79th Congress the fight
began. He really got into full bat.
tie array during the Republican
80th Congress, which he lampoon
ed as the ''worst in history."
Now the 81st Congress, again
controlled by a heavy Democrat
mapority, is constantly under
fire from the White House.
Has Mr. Truman forgotten what
he said in a letter to the St. Louis
Star-Times on March 6, 1944,
about the treatment of Congress
by the late President Roosevelt
when the latter talked tough to
jtongress in a tax bll veto mes
sage? I Mr. Truman, then a senator,
wrote in that letter:
"Had the President returned the
tax bill with a plain statement
that he did not think it produced
enough revenue I don't think
here is a doubt in the world but
what both the Senate and the
House of Representatives would
have supported the veto, but when
he attached the ntegrity and the
intelligence of the Senate and the
House of Representatives he got
I just exactly what was coming to
him . . "
