EASTERN MARKET
The second pool of turkeys
through the Eastern Oregon Turkey
Growers’ association was completed
this evening with a shipment of six
cars of birds. Four cars were spe­
cial orders for eastern Oregon spe­
cially grown turkeys, two of which
were shipped to Fort Wayne. Ind.,
and two to Los Angeles. The other
two cars were shipped to New Fork.
The shipments contained 11.990
birds, and the total weight was
193,433 pounds. Ninety-two per
cent of birds in the pool were prime
grade.
The November shipment contained
2,140 birds with a weight of 33,781
pounds. It is estimated that the
next shipment will be about the
size of the pool completed today.
Birds will be received again at
the warehouse on December 10, 12
and 13. No birds will be received
December 11, to permit growers to
kill and get birds ready for ship­
ment on December 12.
According to J. C. Leedy, field
secretary for the Oregon Turkey Co­
operative, the market is holding up
and as in the case some years, did
not recede after the Thanksgiving
buying. They look for the price to
remain at what is quoted now, 22
cents for hens and 20 cents for toms.
Mr. Leedy reports that the turkeys
from this locality this year are bet­
ter than those of last season, and
are taking well with the trade,
which is one of the reasons for the
special orders from two large con­
suming districts.
The association used dollies in
handling the turkeys from the scales
to thp grading bins, which greatly
increased the efficiency of workers
and also acted as a time and labor
saving agency.

The operetta "Susan’s Christmas
Auction,’’ will be presented by the
first Tour grades In the local school
Thursday, December 22, under the
direction of Miss Myrtle Buraett,
Miss Blanche Harmon, Misa Mary
Petri and Miss Margaret Kirk.
Th,e story encompasses 3usanna in
her home where she exercises her
two very bad faults, being stubborn
and climbing on furniture. Her par­
ents decide she must pay for her bad
behavior by selling her toys at an
auction sale, and her treasures are
disposed of one by one. When her
doll Josephine is put up for sale Su­
sanna promises to be a better girl
and Santa Claus comes to distribute
presents and gives her another doll.
The essence of the Christmas spi­
rit is brought out besides the inter­
est in the story itself, by the carol­
ers, toys, rhythm band, policeman,
Ponto, the dog, soldiers, frosty help­
ers and the characteristic Santa
Claus.
The cast of characters include
Barbara Todd, Susanna; Leo Keller,
Santa Claus; Lela Dell Reeder, Mrs.
Santa Claus; Kenneth Dean, Papa;
Betty Cox, Mamma; Jack Osborne.
Uncle Felix; Dorothy Olson, Aunt
Julia; Leon Elwood, Ponto. There is
a supporting cast of cousins, carolers
Santa's frosty helpers, rhythm band,
drum major, policeman, teddy bears,
jumping
jack, elephants, china
doll and soldiers.
Nothing turns out right un­
less somebody makes it his
job to see that it does. —
William Feather.
