Christmas Shopping Can Be Fun!
The most loved and hectic season of the year
is upon us again those last couple of weeks be
fore Christmas when folks begin to get frantic
about completing their Christmas shopping before
the Christmas Eve deadline.
Many a family shopper and that usually
means mother actually dreads what too often are
the trials and turmoils of this period. They are
dismayed at the time it takes to make "shopping
trips". They are wearied by fighting traffic and
crowds. .
But each year there are quite a few more who
learn that Christmas shopping actually can be fun
as it should be. They have found that by shop
ping in Heppner they eliminate many of the
complications and trials of big-city shopping. They
have learned that traffic congestion in a small
city doesn't amount to very much when com
pared to that in a big city, and that parking close
to shopping spots is an easy and Inexpensive
matter. These wise shoppers have found that it is
fun, too, to shop in Heppner where stores are
large enough and there Is a great enough variety
to offer ample assortments of just about any type
of gift item desired, while at the same time the
shopper saves miles of walking, waiting around
for clerks and countless other aggravations.
Shopping is Heppner is added fun this Christ
mas, too, with the many free prizes that many
stores are giving those persons who happen to
hold one of the lucky gift numbers it is an added
incentive to take a look in all of the stores. i
Then there is the added bonus of a friendlier
atmosphere and closer personal service which adds
to the pleasure of choosing just the right gift for
each member of the family and each friend.
Yes, it can be fun when you shop at your home
town stores.

One of the biggest representa
tions of Morrow county farmers
of recent years attended the 30th
annual meeting of the Oregon
Wheatgrowers League held In
Pendleton last Thursday, Friday
and Saturday. Evidently the nice
weather combined with an inter
esting program drew big groups
from other counties as well as
Morrow since attendance at this
year's League was excellent. The
six committees were better rep
resented by farmers than usual
and many recommendations were
the results. Recommendations
passed at this annual meeting
will be included In the annual
proceedings which all wheat
growers will receive in a few
weeks. Visiting with a number of
county wheat growers we found
that many are planning to at
tend the annual meeting of the
National Association of Wheat
growers which meet at Spokane
In early February.
Announcement was made this
week by the Oregon state dir
ector of agriculture that registra
tions for the beef commission
will continue until Dec. 24. Mor
row county livestock men have
been slow in registering and it
is urged that they register
promptly.
A good delegation of livestock
growers were on hand Tuesday
morning to participate in the
fence law hearing held by the
Oregon state department of agri
culture. There has been some
controversy for a time concern
ing the status of the fence law in
Morrow county. The representa
tive of the state department of
agriculture informed those at
tending the hearing that the pres
ent status of Morrow county is
a closed range. This has been the
status since 1949 when legisla
tion established this in this
county. Implications of the closed
range and open range laws were
discussed and it was pointed out
that it is a simple matter to pe
tition and vote for open range by
areas or county-wide. Several
members of the Morrow County
Livestock Growers association
have asked that a discussion of
the wishes of our county cattle
men be held as a part of the an
nual meeting scheduled now for
January 10 and 11.

From the fileg of the
Gazette Times Dec. 15, 1927
Dan Engleman is up from Port
land for a visit of a short time
at the Alfalfa Lawn Dairy of
Wightman Brothers.
Paul Gemmell of Conn Auto
Co. went to Portland on Sunday
and spent a couple of days in the
city on business.
The doors of the new public
school auditorium gymnasium

Last week we commented about
the light horse judging school
held recently at Corvallis and the
attendance from Morrow county.
We have found out since then
that some of our horsemen at
tending the school placed high in
the Light Horse Judging contest
hold as a part of the school.
Wayne Martin, Heppner was third
high judge while Floyd Jones,
Heppner, was fourth. It looks as
if Morrow county will have some
some saddle horse judges to fill
the need for such judges through
out the state.
With Christmas time not too
far away and with many people
no doubt going to the woods for
Christmas trees it might be well
to point out a law of the last
Legislature at preventing Christ
mas tree trespass. Individuals
who transport more than five
Christmas trees at any one time
over Oregon roads or highways
must have evidence of ownership
unless he is the actual owner of
the trees. The individual must
have a bill of sale while trans
porting t h e trees which must
show the name and address of
the original owner, the number of
trees by species and the descrip
tion of the land f-om which the
trees were removed. So if you are
going to the woods this month
to get your Christmas tree, bet
ter keep the number under five
and be safe or have proof of ownership.
