In keeping with the theme, "In A Winter Wonder land" the hall was beautifully deco rated In blue and silver. White snow drifts were topped with blue sky which melted into huge snowballs represented by shaded lights. Snow- flakes hung from streamers that hid the ceiling. Small fir trees were tucked away in shadowy corners to add effect to the scene. Punch was served to the guests at an attractive counter. Miss Margaret Elliott, who is class adviser, directed the committees in arranging for the Prom. The orchestra known as Branstet ters, furnished the music. Semester tests will be given on Monday and Tuesday of next week. High school students who are exempt will not be required to at tend school these two days. Students will not be required to be present Wednesday, May 22, which will give the teachers an opportun ity to complete their reports. George L. Baker, former Mayor of Portland and now manager of the Oregon Manufacturers Association, paid a visit to Hermiston last Satur day in the interest of the National Housing Show which will be held in Portland, May 25 to June 2. “A committee of 100, headed by Aaron M. Frank, are doing a real job of putting on this housing show for the Federal Houclng Administra tion," said his honor. “We have the word of the directors from Washing ton. D. C., thaat the Portland show will be the largest and most compre hensive of the 287 they have pre sented to date. The committee has taken over the public auditorium and the four blocks adjacent for an exposition center. In this space will be offered the greatest show Port land has ever produced. From the Chicago Exposition of Progress they have signed the most spectacular and mystifying phenomenal of the elec trical age—the "House of Magic”. Ie drew capacity crowds for two years in Chicago and thousands of people were unable to see it. "Tommy Luke and his entertain ment committee will have the best of stage and screen stars on hand to attract thousands, and the Governor of this state has asked him to select a “Miss Oregon” to represent the state at the Fan Diego Exposition. Here’s opportunity for some of the beauties of Hermiston to hold a con test and send their own representa tive to Portland to compete for this distinguished honor. "The exhibits in the exposition center will be of unusual education al value as every means of building will be represented. The model house is going to be a modest dwel ling typical of Oregon. In that, I mean it will be built entirely of Ore gon products, inside and out. It is also an innovation in style of archi tecture and is already attracting the architectural genius of the country. "It is my pleasure to invite Her miston, all of its citizens to the Na tional Housing Show, Portland, Ore gon, May 25 to June 2, inclusive.” --------- — The eighth grade graduation ex ercises will be held at 2:00 P.

ADDITIONAL LOCALS MISS ROGERS, FRED ASTAIRE POPULAR TEAM IN “ROBERTA.” A bull in a china shop is perfect ly at home compared with an all- American football player in a Parts style salon. Those who doubt this are referred to “Roberta,” glittering musical comedy film, starring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, which will be at the Oasis theatre Friday and Saturday. The rollicking, romantic picture is based upon the stage hit of the same name and deals with love in a Paris gown shop. The salon becomes the property of an All-American gridiron star, who promptly falls in love with the beautiful dress design er. In the meantime, the football hero's dance-hand leader pal finds Paris a most delightful place when he discovers an old sweetheart dis guised behind a title and an accent. Irene Dunne sings several of the song hits with which "Roberta" is studded, while Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers introduce some spec- tacular new dance routines, which are declared to rival their work in "The Gay Divorcee." as the story breezes along a gay. tuneful way to a climax, which mixes drama with the melody and comedy.
