Humphrey'
By Jl STINK
UFATHEKFORD
A wonderful part of Hep
pner's history has been pre
served by Leta Humphreys
Thomas, now of Portland, In a
large scrapbook -album which
she carefully assembled to
hold many pictures, news
clippings and assorted mem
orabilia concerning her fam
ily's life and work in Heppner.
Her friend, Sadie Parrish, has
presented the book to the
Morrow County Museum on
her behalf.
Thf opening page contains a
wedding picture of her par
ents, Elizabeth UJzatie) Rood
and Thomas James Hum
phreys, who married on July
20. 1892 at Hillsboro, and
clipping from the East Ore
gonian News Bureau of July
22. 19.-W. telling of T.J. Hum
phreys' arrival at Heppner In
18'H at 3 a m. and going to
work at 7 o'clock that morning
for druggist Ed Slocum.
"From there he went to work
for Conser & Warren and in
1901 bought out Warren'a
partnership. At this time there
were four doctors In town
Dr. P B. McSwords, Dr. E.R.
Swinburne, Dr. McFall and
Dr. E R. Hunlock.
"Mr. Humphreys then
bought out Conser's and In
1918 he purchased the two
story stone structure which
the Humphreys Drug Store
now occupies on the corner of
Main and Willow Streets. He
is still actively engaged in
business and recalls there
are Just three other men in
business in Heppner now who
were In business 40 years
ago James G. Thomson, Sr.,
M.D. Clark and D.A.
McAtee."
On the following pages there
are great pictures of the
Humphreys Store, its interior
and exterior and of various
Heppner scenes and persons.
Ixta notes that the prints were
made in 1982 from glass plates

Drug Store, now MurroyV Drug. Photo come from Leta
J I 1
used in an Eastman Camera
between 1902 and 1905. There
are many professional certifi
cates made out to T.J. and
Leta Marguerite Humphreys,
there are prescription!, for
various medical recipes, there
are war ration books, selected
cartoons and many remark
able family and employee pic
tures. The album includes early
childhood pictures of Leta and
her playmates, especially
Virginia Crawford, of Mar
garet and Janet Crawford, of
Mrs. T.J. Humphreys and her
Sunday school class at the
Christian Church which in
cluded young ladies from the
Young, Huston, Turner,
Sprouls. Merrit, Hall, French. -Clark,
Crawford, Mikesell and
Sigsbee families. There is also
a large picture of the entire
congregation of the Christian
Church which includes a great
many present-day residents of
the community.
There is a fine collection of
pictures of most of Heppner's
churches and of its schools,
along with sample report
cards and four copies of Hep
pner High School's first news
paper "The Chinook," which
was printed in January, Feb
ruary, November and Decem
ber 1910. Leta was graduated
in 1911 and has included the
invitation to that commence
ment and a program of the
event.
A group of pages are cov
ered with Sunday school merit
cards, with pictures and car
toons taken from a 1900 Moth
er Goose Book and various
little advertising cards from
the manufacturers of Arm and
Hammer Soda, Lyon's Coffee,
Clark's O.N.T. Cotton Thread
and of other companies, which
have been so carefully pre
served and mounted along
with some fascinating, colored
Oregon postcards showing the
1905 Lewis and Clark exposi
tion. There is a three-nape insert
PI
HP
museum
; -i lj "Tin,
which lists all the employees
of the Humphreys Drug Co. un
til 19M, and across from the
listings there are pictures of
some of them, including Ruth
Bergstrom, Coleen Connor,
Mary Ruth Green, Nita
Bleakman and Betty Lovgren.
Leta's book is really some
what of a memorial to her
parents as it contains various
clippings about them, includ-'
ing both their obituaries. Mrs.
Humphreys died in 1932 and
Mr. Humphreys lived until
Sept. 1947. He was a very
important prt of life in Mor
row County for the 49 years he
was the proprietor of Hum
phreys Drug Co. After his
death Leta took ovir the drug
store.
Leta's lovely album should
be a treasure which must be
carefully guarded in the Mor
row County Museum and
should be enjoyed by those
who view it for many years to
come. Everyone who has
known her and her family
surely expresses sincere
thanks for her work in pre
serving and mounting this
unusual collection of pictures,
clippings and momntos.

to graduate from OSU, LeMay
found. "A total of 31 students
were in this category and only
five graduated." he reported.
In general too, most of those
in the graduate group had
completed three or more
years of high school science
and English. Several students
had excellent science back
grounds from high school but
earned non-science degrees at
OSU. LeMay noted, an indica
tion of differences in career
goals among the 100 students
in the test.
Individual ability and moti
vation showed through as al
ways. LeMay observed. One of
the students from OSU in the
College of Science had not
taken any college prepatory
science courses in high school.
