Board Affects Economy in Salary Cuts: Prospects Bright After Tax Receipts are Received. The teaching staff for the Her miston Union High school and the elementary grade school has been completed by Superintendent R. H. McAtee for the coming school year, with all but three of the old per sonal. Contracts signed for the school year beginning in September 1932 call for a twenty per cent cut for all high school teachers and a flat salary of $110 for all elementary school teachers. This action was taken by the board early this spring to take effect this fall. The music department was discontinued as another economy measure. R. A. Brownson, school clerk for the two Hermiston school districts, recently received the first half of the school tax money for the districts and says that the receipts compare favorably with those of last year. The teaching staff for Union High School district No. 9 include Miss Esther Sibert, commercial; Henry N. Harger, social science and Span ish; Wallace J. Cochran, science and coach; Miss Jessie B. Brierley, math ematics and Latin: and Miss Mar garet Elliott, English and girls ath letics. The faculty for the lower grades for district No. 14 include Miss Ra chel Sloan, first grade; Miss Mary Petrie, second grade; Miss Cather ine McBain, third grade; Miss Mag- dolene Buck, fourth grade; and Miss Eva Bartsch, fifth grade. Upper grade departmental teachers are: Miss Ingrid Boling, sixth grade; Clarence Henning, seventh grade; and Millie Holm, eighth grade. $ • r - PLANS PREPARED FOR POULTRYMEN IN BULLETINS. Despite low egg prices, many Ore gon poultrymen are taking advant age of equally low lumber prices to improve their poultry plants and get them in shape for more efficient production for the better times be lieved certain to follow. To meet the demand for approved plans for poultry construction in this state, the Oregon State college extension service has just issued a aeries of three bulletins prepared by the poultry and agricultural engi neering departments of the college which contain descriptions, bill of materials and detailed plans for constructing range houses, brooder houses and insulated egg rooms. "Building Plans and Bill of Ma terials for O.S.C. Portable Brooder House" is the title of extension bul letin No. 446 by A. G. Lunn, head of the poultry department of the ex periment station. The house de scribed has been used successfully on the college poultry farm. It is built on runners so it may be moved at least once for each lot of chicks brooded. "O.S.C. Range House” is the name of the second of the series, extension bulletins No. 442. This range house has been in general use for several years and has proved satisfactorily as a means of rearing pullets to ma turity under sanitary and fresh-air conditions, says Professors Lunn W. J. Gilmore who are the authors. “How to Construct an Insulated Egg Storage Room,” is the title of the third bulletin, No. 445, by F. E. Price and A. G. Lunn. Plans for this type of building were developed to meet the situation reported by cooperative and private egg dealers tu the effect that producers were los ing larg sums every summer from off grade eggs because of improper farm storage after first class eggs were produced by high quality flocks. The plans given in this bul letin will enable a farmer to build a room that will insure excellent storage for his eggs at a cost of ma terials of $15 to $40, depending on whether it is built as a separate building or as a room In an exist ing one. These bulletins may be had free from county agents or the college direct. Herald Want Ads Pay, V m them.

The Umatilla Co-operative Cream ery had a new 1200 pound capacity Crano churn Installed last Saturday which will take care of 400 gallons of cream at one churning. It is one of the most modern churns manu factured. The cream passes through two sets of rollers twice during every revolution which insures a thorough and even churning. The churn is ferfectly balanced and takes less power for operation. All cog wheels are boxed and run in oil. At present the creamery is mak ing two churnings a day, one with first grade cream and the other with third grade cream. The third grade cream has previously been shipped to Portland. - Production of the creamery has more than doubled since it started operation nearly a year ago. Refrigeration storage space was recently enlarged by moving the bln containing brine to the top of the storage room. Other improvements are being planned, including redeco ration of the walls and ceiling on the interior of the building. The latest cream test made by the state inspector averaged 35.87 and the state required test is an average of 35.50. • =------ SERVICE STATION GOING UP ON WEST SIDE HIGHWAY. W. G. Gifford, formerly of Stan field, has started construction on a service station on the west side highway, directly across from the Union Pacific depot, which he plans to have ready for operation by the first of July. The station will be leased to John Grindstaff for one year, who will live in the old OI- decker building next to the auditor ium. John Heckman of Stanfield is building the station which will be 16x26 with a two-way drive on eith er side of a 550 gallon pressure pump. The corner property was purchased from W. G. and G. W. Bailey and has an 80-foot front and is 110 feet deep. Serving Fine. FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION PLANS BRING REMINISCENCE Kilts, a flaming red tarn o’ shan- ter, a little Scotch terrier, and a de lightful Scotch brogue are the chief properties of Janet Gaynor for her new role in “Delicious,” Fox melo dy romance coming Thursday, Fri day and Saturday at the Oasis thea tre. As a Scotch orphan lassie, Miss Gaynor is first seen amid a gay and colorful peasantry In the steerage of a large ocean liner headed for America. Her wistful charm and bubbling sense of humor immediate ly endear her to everyone, includ ing a troupe of talented' Russian en tertainers who adopt her as one of their own. Charles Farrell, co-star in the pic ture, also becomes acquainted with her on the boat, as does El Brendel, who is seen as Farrell’s valet. The romance which springs up between Janet and Charlie on their first meeting is the moaivating theme of the picture. Their adventures, which include a strange misunderstanding between them and Janet’s threat of a spite marriage, carry them ashore where their troubles are augmented by the persistence of Virginia Cher- rill to win Charlie's affection, and of Lawrence O’Sullivan, an immigra tion officer, to arrest Janet for en tering the country illegally. Spontaneous gaity and much com edy are woven through the picture which is told with a background of George Gershwin music. This in cludes six musical numbers by the famous composer, the words of which were written by his talented brother, Ira Gershwin. They are “You Started It,” "Blah-Blah-Blah- Blah With You,” "Delishious," "Somebody From Somewhere,” "Ka- tinkitschka," and “New York Rhap sody.” The last named composition is symbolic of the spirit expressed In the building of America, ATED BY REPUBLICANS. ------ — Herbert Hoover was renom- inated for the president of the United States Thursday by the republican national convention in Chicago. Hoover received 1,120% votes out of the total of 1,154. Charles Curtis, choice of the administration was made the Hoover 1932 running mate. In each case, following the nomination, a motion made the vote unanimous.
