School Notes.
By suat. Notson.

On the End inst drove down into
the "banana belt" to visit the school
in District No. 9. The number and
size of stacks of wheat in that section
of the country is simply astonishing.
Miss Florence Piggott is the teacher
in District No. 9 The school is
somewha larger than it was last year.
The enrolment is eleven. The record
of attendance shows that the warm
weather is not affecting the attendance
unfavorably. New adjustable single
form desks have been installed. They
are quite an improvement over the old
desks. This is one of the few coun-
try schools which have the light ad-
mittcd fiom the left and rear. which
is quite an advantage to the pupils.
A little more care in lighting our
school rooms and a little more care
on the part of teachers to adjust the
shades properly would save the eyes
of the pupils very much and make the

discipline less difficult.
On last Thursday visited the
school in District No. SO, where Miss
Margaret Osten is at the helm. The
call of the huckleberry patch has been
so strong that the number of pupils
in attendance is greatly reduced 1t
seems almost a waste of money to
maintain a school when only a few
will attend. The teacher can not keep
up the interest among the pupils when
the attendance is irregular. 1t might
be better to have a vacation during
the time that it is difficult to secure
q full attendance.
Not many teachers have reported
the completion of the reading circle
work. Under the new law, all GER
tiicstes must be registered each year,
and the reading circle work must be
done to entitle a teacher to have his
or her certificate registered. The
reading circle work is not burdensoma
but is benefit.

To our Swedish friends it may be
interesting to note that of all the crop
mortgages in Morrow county, totalling
the sum of S1OO. 286 6l, there is not
one cent against Swede. Consider
ing the fact that most of the Scandin-
avians are not located in the choicest
sections of the county this speaks vol
umes for their thrift and prosperity.
This is accounted for in large meas
ure by the fact that the Swede can
stand prosperity better than his
American brother. He lives very
modestly when his credit is good !,
hence iss ssalways in position to meet
the conditions resulting from poor
crops and other revelses.
Thomson Bros. are this week max
ing some changes in their store build
ing. A new arch has been cut in the
partition separating the grocery de-
partmeut from the gents furnishing
department allowing passage between
the rooms at the front of the building
instead of the center as before. They
are also building in new show windows
which will be much more convenient
In displaying goods. These improve
meuts add materially to the general
appearance and convenience Of the
store.
The editor of this great family
journal has cast dull care to the breezes
and hied himself to the tall uncut for
a two weeks stay in the neighborhoOd
of Herren's Mill. In the meAnime

so if the paper is not up to its usual
standard the reader will appreciate
the aforesaid department capacity
for laying off when the boss is not

Rev. e. P. Warren and wife depart
ed for Troy, Idaho, Tuesday afternoon
to attend the annual conference of the
M e. Church. South for this dis,
trict. They are making the drive
overland with their horse and buggy
and expect to put in seven or eight
davs on the road. As Mr.. Warren's
future location depends on the decision
of the conference he does not know
where he will go from here. The
Warrens have been residents Of Hepp-
ner for tho past three years, during
which time they have made host OF
warm personal friends Always ready
to aid those in need they have left
nothing but the memory of good deeds
behind them. Through the labors Of
Mr. Warren the people of his faith
have been housed in comfortable, f,
modern little ch urch edifice which
stands as a monument to his energy
and enterprise. A wish for continued
success and happiness goes with them
from their many friends in Heppner
and Morrow county,
The finest apricots seen in Heppnei
this season are some rsised on the
residence property of J. H. Cox.
They simply outclass any of the fruit
shipped in here and have been raised
with only ordinary care. The tree is
heavily laden with nice big apricots
far above the average size and the
flavor is all that could be desired
The land on which this fruit is raised
is not superior to other places in
Hepuner. Many of our people could
do the same thing with but very little
care. Peaches can be raised here
quite successfully and no doubt many
other things for which our citizens
pay out their hard earned dollars
could be raised right on their own
land.
E Heppner has been unusually favored
with entertainment the past week.
Hearde's Overland Company gave
vaudeville performance at the Star
theater last Thursday evening and on
Monday evening the Royal Players
entertained fair sized crowd at the
same place. This aggregation carries
tent for show purposes but on account
of the lateness of the train that eve-
ming they were obliged to engage the
theater for one night. Their show OF
that evening was in the nature of a
variety performance. Tuesday even
ing the troupe presented Uncle Tom 8
Cabin" in their big tent. This is one
of the best organizations that has
appeared in Heppner in recent years.

takes the motorist in the direction OF
Washington Grove. 1t is here that the
autoist must make up his mind when
route to take to Frederick, as the roads
separate and run in different directions.
The first route given herewith will be
what is known the short route TO
Frederick. After leaving the fine mac
adam roadway the mOtorist picks up with
an ordinary country dirt road. which
leads directly through the town OF
Gaithersburg. Crossing the tracks of the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad. the route is
continued straight ahead. and although
rather heavy with dust for some distance
it improves somewhat one goes on
Gaithersburg is about twenty -one miles
from Washington. The next town of inn
portance is Clarksburg. about eight miles
away. In between these points will be
found another short stretch of macadam
which the average motorist generally
burns up while it lasts, and one soon
finds that 1t only lasts a short distance.
On arriving at Clarksburg the motorist
finds himself in typical country village,
with the little post office on the left side
of the road. This little burg, which IS
one of the most popular villages along the
line. is about twenty-nine miles from the
National Capital. From here the same
road continues on until Hyattstown is
reached. and here the motorist should
proceed with caution. Hyattstown is
mountain. The first glimpse of the town
is seen when the automobile suddenly
bounces over slight grade and then
almost as suddenly pitches forward down
a steep incline.
Unless the motorist is prepared for this
sudden drop he is apt to be caught nap
ping, and unless the brakes are applied
Immediately his machine is likely TO gain
considerable Roadway and give the opera
tor a good scare, which has been the
case with more than one motorist- The
road at this point Is rough in places and
the speed should be reduced to a mini
mum. At the bottom OF the steep hill

on the famous Laytonsville pike. which
continues directly into and through the
town bearing that name. Ii stops on the
other side of the town and the country
road once more takes its place. Passing
through Etchson a turn is made 10
the left and the route continued through
Damascus. and just before pulling into
Ridgeville another excellent stretch of
macadam greets the eyes. On arriving
at Ridgeville, famous. by the way, for its
fried chicken dinners. a sharp turn IL
made to the left over the Baltimore
Frederick turnpike. The distance OF
Ridgevlle from Washington is about
forty miles via this route. \ sharp as
cent is made after passing out OF the
town and in some PAGES the road viii
be found somewhat rough. This highway
can be easily driven over in wet weather
on account of its solid foundation. al
though the top dressing in places is miss
ing and has been for some time past.
The next town of Importance Is New
Market forty-six miles from the Ma
tonal Capital. and directly on the pike
Stick to this pike. which runs directly
through the town, and about eight miles
away will be found Frederick which. via
this route. is fifty-four miles. or about
ten miles longer than via ClarksburS and
Hyattstown The motorist comes into the
town Of Frederick via East Patrick
street. and no turn in the center of the
town is necessary. Keep straight ahead
until Telegraph hill is re&ched. when
the same route is taken as described IN
the early part of this story. The total
distance from Washington is about sew
enty-fve miles. as against sixty-five the
other route.
No licenses are required in West Nir-
ginia, provided the license of the home
state Is displayed. 4 license however. is
needed when passing through Maryland.
in addition to the District license. SO mo-
florists should go prepared 10 this extent.

will be encountered between the Ma
tional Capital and the camp. Here and
there will be found fine macadam
stretches. which give way to hard pixies
and country roads.
The first objective point after leaving
Washington is Rockville. Md. This can
be reached via Massachusetts avenue ex-
tended to the Tenleytown road and thence
to the right over the Rockville pike, or
via Connecticut avenue extended to
