THE ELKS WANT YOUR DEER AND ELK Hid For The Elks Veterans' Rehabilitation Program Deposit Hides in Barrels At Various Service Stations In Heppner and Lexington Sponsored by Heppner Elks Lodge No. 358 Season Opening About Average With No Mishaps Hunter successes over the op ening week end of deer season In the Heppner district were comparable with the past two years in most areas, officials re ported Monday. However, number of hunters reporting at road checks show ed a drop. Those in Wheeler and Gilliam counties were reporting an increase. The invading ar my" in this area seemed to be of the "weekend" variety. Although the deer kill war down some, general conditions of thore bagged were bigger and fatter, due to good forage and water during the summer months, game officials said State officials stated there were few difficulties experienc ed, no fatal accidents or death In the district, and no onp lost. A minor accident, not direct ly connected with hunting, was reported after a hunter had ser iously torn a finger while work ing with a piece of equipment in camp. He was brought to Pio neer Memorial hospital for emergency treatment. And, add ing insult, it was his "trigger" finger. One hunter was arrested for illegally killing a bull elk on Potamus Point. It was brought n good shape to Central Mar ket and will he issued to wel fare or through the Neighbor hood Center. At road checks a few grouse, quail and pheasant were confis cated. Hunters, in general, were do- ng an excellent job caring lor their meat, and had been care ful with fires.

II M GROUP OR INDIVIDUAL PORTRAIT IN BEAUTIFUL LIVIN . . o. . A COLO R Director Challenges Soroptimists in Talk During Official Visit District Director Dorothy Bcr rv of Portland made her offic ial visit before the boroptimist club of Heppner at its regular business meeting last Thursday noon. Mrs. Berry was visiting clubs in the area while en route to the fall convention of District 2 Northwestern Region, held Sat urday and Sunday in La Grande, and attended bv several local club members. The director, in her talk fol lowing the business meeting had words of Draise for exten sion work carried on Dy ciuds within the district. Several new clubs are being chartered dur ing this biennium, she an nounced. including Milwaukie and Junction City, and to be chartered soon are clubs in Pen dleton and Beaverton. "Soroptimism is good for ev eryone the community, the na tion, the world and us," she pointed out. "It is an answer to 'what is happiness?' as it calls on members to use all of your talents in a very highest cause, making best use of abil ities and opportunities to im prove the individual self, and to serve those about you." Service through Soroptimism provides women with an incent ive to "break through the crust of the ages," she noted, using and directing their power to ov ercome inefficiencies and un justices. Women are helped by having a natural intuition and can thereby be sympathetic to international social problems. The fact that $50,000 was con tributed last year to help over seas refugees emphasized this point. During; the business period, with Mrs. Vi Lanham presiding, committee reports were heard. Plans for Christmas gift to be sent to the sister club in Folk stone, England, were discussed.
