Jake Young attended the foot
ball game at lone, Saturday. He
is not an enthusiast of the game
by any means, and the fact that
his oldest son, who was a leading
player in the team, came near
being seriously injured, has not
added to his respect for the game.
Like great many other parents,
Mr.. Young fails to appreciate a
sport that is fraught with so
much danger to life and limb of
those who engage in it.

Important Meeting.

Important Meeting.
An interesting and importan
meeting of the Commercial Clut
was held at the Council chambers
on Monday evening, and the same
was we'll attended by our business
men.
The most important business
under consideration, at least fol
the time being, was the selection
of a committee to go to Pendleton
to attend the meeting of Pendle-
ton Commercial Club and toassist
that body to get on the right side
of the west extension of the
Umatilla project. C. E. Wood
son, S. E. Notson, G. G. Patter-
son and T. j. Mahoney were
chosen to represent the Heppner
body at this meeting and depart
ed on Tuesday morning for Pen
dleton to be present at the Tues
day evening meeting. Their ex-
penses of the trip are borne by the
Club, and if they got a through
hold on the sentiment of the
meeting, and no doubt they did,
there protests will surly be heard
against the action of the Umatilla
County people in opposing the
west extention project at this
time.
In order to carry on the work
of the Club to a success, means
were discussed for providing
funds to push the interests of the
organization, pay its necessary
expenses and provide salary for
a secretary, who can devote his
time to the promotion of publicity
and taking care of the correspon-
dence. A subscription paper
was prepared and the business
men present promptly responded
with pledges of monthly pay
ments, and a sum aggregating
better than $4,000 per month
has been provided. This spells
for the organization and |
places it in a position to do agrees
sive work.
That an expression of the meet
ing might be given, and its stand
made known to the outside world
with reference to the work of
the reclamation service upon
the west extension of the Una
tilla project, the chairman ap-
a committee on resolu-
lions consisting of E. M. Shut,
w. w. Smead and Clyde Brock,
and their report appears else
where.
w. P. Dutton and E. G. Mad
lock will present the subscrip-
ion paper to the business men
and citizens who were not pre-
sent at the meeting, to get addi-
,ional monthly pledges for carry
ng on the work.
The club also reimbursed w. 7.
Campell for his expenses on the
trip made to Portland recently to
attend meeting of the tri-county
Development League.

HEPPNER MAKES
STRONG PROTEST
Ringing Resolutions by
Commercial Club.

At a special and largely attend
ed meeting of the Morrow County
Booster Club held at Heppner,
Oregon, on Dec. 18th, 1911, the
following resolutions were unan-
imously adopted:
Whereas, the State of Oregon
has contributed to the National
reclamation fund of the United
States about $4,000, 100000 but
has profted less than has any
other State, and
Whereas, after many years OF
effort on the part of our patriotic
citizens, and much labor on the
part of our Reclamation Service
a portion of this great reclama-
tion fund is about to be expended
upon the West Umatilla project,
which embraces some so, 600 acres
of Morrow County irrigable land,
and
Whereas, just at the time when
the fruits of all these years of
labor are about to be gathered,
and the President of the United
States and the Secretary of the
Interior are favorably impressed
with this project, a few misguided
and selfish persons, representing
a private irrigation scheme at
Stanfeld have instituted a vicious
opposition to the West Umatilla
project, because it would open up
a great body Of fine land which
would be sold for about $75.00
per acre as against $4,000 per-
acre in the Stanfield private pro-
iect, and
Whereas the Stanfeld people
claim that the building of the
West Umatilla project reservoir
would ruin land on which is run
some 1900 head of cattle and
10000 head of sheep, We claim
that after the completion of this
project enough alfalfa could be
raised to feed twenty times this
number Of stock, and enough |
land could be reclaimed to support
from 1000 to 1850 families, and
would add millions Of dollars in
taxable property to Morrow and
Umatilla Counties as against the
ruination of a few farms on the
reservoir site; Therefore belt
Resolved, that we, the Morrow
County Booster Club, voicing the
sentiments of all Morrow County
citizens hereby deplore and de-
nounce the selfish and misguided
and unpatriotic attitude of the
said opposition toward this recla-
nation work, and
Resolved, that we urge the Pres
ident of the United States and the
Secretary of the Interior to at
once approve the same West Una
tilla project, and
Resolved that copy of these
resolutions be spread upon the
records of the Club, that copies be
forwarded to the President of the
United States, to each of our Sen
ators and Representatives in Con-
gress, and to the press of the
State.

The above is the No. of the school
districts and the amonnt that each
received at the apportionment, that
was mailed Saturday, April 8.
While there are few districts that
did not get as much as at the April
apportionment for 1910, the greater
majority of them received more.
Last year the schools of the county
received 81 $4,000 from the gen.
eral levy, which was .002S97253 on
the dollar, $19, 10000 from special
levies. The special levies were from
Il to Is mills, then there were ST.
993 90 transferred from the gener, |
fund of the county, to the special
school fund. These sums amount
to $33, 1O3.09. This year there will
be about s25, 10000. The special
levies are much less, especially the
ones the county court made. The; e
will have to be $500 transferred
from the general fund this school
year. Every tax payer might study
these figures over and see if some
change could not be suggested which
would equalize the taxes and give
the amount needed.

8 Hints for the Housewife. o

a scald is one of the most painful
injuries One OF the best healing
remedies is made by beating castor
Oil and white Of egg together until
q cream Is formed.
! "A slight massage with the rotary
motion should be given the face Al
least once day, preferably twice.
The work consists merely In rubbing
a circle with the finger tips over the
cheeks, temples and forehead sufli-
GENTLY to stimulate circulation. This
serves to keep the tissues in healthy
condition and will freshen the color.
Where nourishment and health are
concerned laughter and good will are
vigorous promoters Of the digestive
functions. The court jester was q
valuable piece Of dining-room furni-
ture in olden times, and a good
natured and cheerful guest who
keeps up lively and entertaining
conversation at table does more to
aid digestion than all the nostrums
ever Invented.
Finger nails that retain their
grayish .tinge at the tips should be
bleached, and this can be done with
wet borax or borax dampened with
ammonia, or ammonia and peroxide
of hydrogen. Moisten the nails on
the under side, slip the cambric
handkerchief over the orange stick
and wipe the nail edges. In most
cases the nails are instantly turned
a shell white.
A croupy cough usually comes on
at night and sounds dry, hollow and
like bark. There is always some
degree of difficulty in breathing.
Keep the patient in warm room,
place very hot cloths about the troat
and keep either Group kettle or
ordinary teakettle boiling in the
room. In sever cases use ten drops
of sirup of ipecac every half hour
vomiting occurs In ordinary cases
of cold the following remedies are
helpful. For a young child four
drops of aromatic spirits of ammonia
taken with dessert spoonful of water
every hour often given immediate
relief. Rub chest well with camphor-
ated oil, hens or skunk's oil.
Picturesque results are obtained in
using dotted foulards with border
edges by running a border around
the exereme skirt edge and another
at the knee line. If the bodice is
plated.
