She tried again and again till after

herself upon her bed, undressed, to

Yet it was John who surprised her.
He was waiting in the parlor when

HAS BEEN|S WILL
MEET SCHOOL BOYS

Who should fret? Everybody
in Heppner, because that class of
manhood styled 3'hasbins" more
particularly in baseball parlance,
will endeavor to work the come
back" trick on the more ambi-
tious youths Of Heppner High
school at the Depot ball park to-
morrow afternoon. The admis-
sion price has been placed at Is
cents. Not that the game will
be worth so little as that, but
more to give the people of Hepp-
ner a chance to show their pub
lie spirit. The proceeds will be
used in Improving the baseball
grounds.
Who are the "hasbins?" Why
they are those same fellows VINO
were engaging the attention of
the fan. mostly. about ten or fif-
teen years ago. Some of them
are old gray haired grandfathers.
Among those who have signed up
for the contest we find the names
of Tom Humphreys, NJ L. Case,
Archie McMurdo, Vawter Craw-
ford, Glenn Wells, Geo. Case,
Claud Cox, Dick Wells and 0. G.
Crawford. The "hasbins" claim
they have something up their
sleeve that they expect to spring
on the unsuspecting school boys
before the game is over. Come
out and see what that something
is. The game will start at 2::30.
