MIR. NotsOn To Citizens.

To the Business Men of Heppner:
While | was in attendance at the
Irrigation Congress at Portland, |
was elected president of the Hepp-
ner Commercial Club If | accept
this position, it means that | must
give time, thought and energy to
matters of public interest. This | am
ready to do, and | hope that every
citizen of Heppner will be ready and
willing to cooperate. If we expect
to accomplish anything through the
club, we must all be ready to lend a
hand. Fifteen or twenty members
can do something, but ninety or a
hundred can do infinitely more.
If a commercial club is worth any
thing to a community, it must have
in it the people who are interested
in seeing the community go ahead,
who believe that it is worth the while
to pull together. We may not be
able to do all the things that have
been done by clubs in other places,
but we can do some things, visit
ed a number of towns recently and |
noticed that the towns that are max
ing progress are the towns with live
commercial clubs.
We should get together and discuss
matters of common interest. We
may differ widely in our views. but
the club is the place to work out our
differences, as far as possible, and to
agree upon some plan of action. The
club should be place for free dis
cussion, but we must not stop at the
mere discussion. We must make up
our minds to do some of the things
which can be done. | believe that the
club has accomplished much good in
the past. We may have made some
mistakes, but they should be made
use of to guide us toward right lines
They should not be made bones OF
contention.
There will be a meeting of the
club at the Odd Fellows hall to-
morrow night, at 1880. Every mem
Der of the club should make it a
point to be there. Every citizen OF
Heppner who believes that the clut
can be made factor in the develop
ment of the community should BIT
present, and, If not a member, be
come a member. In union there is
strength, is an old and true adage
Let us pull together.
Respectfully,
S. E. NOTSON.

LOCALS DEFEAT THE
DALLEs IN CLOSE GAME
Exciting Contest Results in 81 to 20
Victory For Home Team.-Many
Fouls on Both Sides.

The local team added another vic
tory to their list for the season last
Saturday night when The Dalles
High School team was defeated by
the close score Of 81 to 29. The
game was just as close as the score
indicates, and is was anybody's game
up to the very last minute of play.
Many fouls were called on both
sides, although the game was played
in good clean fashion. Steers and
Tyler for the visitors were high point
winners and Tyler's basket shooting
at times was spectacular. Steers,
who has an established reputation as
foot ball player, does not fall far
behind in the indoor sport, and his
playing Saturday night was the back
bone of The Dalles defense. Cohen
played a good game at guard.
The locals went into the game han
dicapped with insufficient practice,
which means poor team work. 1t was
feared that the absence of karn and
Cochran at guard would prove disas-
trous, but the work of Yeager and
Wright was excellent, all things con-
sidered. Morgan did great work at
center, as usual, and he proved in
yincible to the visitors, when it
came to pushing the ball up into the
basket. Hiatt and Crawford, who
filled the forward positions did not
play up to their standard, having
poor success in connecting with the
baskets. A large crowd witnessed
the game, and enthusiasm was in
tense at all periods. The Dalles
coach served as referee and William
O'Rourke gave satisfaction as UNI
pire. Aiken and Hughes were time
keepers.

REQUESTED TO PRUNE

If the continuing appropriations
are cut off by the Legislature, it is
quite probable that the appropra-
tion for the county fairs will be
among those cut off. If this appro-
priation should be cut off, it will
bring to the front the question of
the future of our county fair. We
will have to face the problem of f.
nancing the fair ourselves, or else
abandon it. If we wish the state ap-
preparation continued, it is time we
are getting busy and saying so to our
members of the legislature. This
question might we'll receive the at
tention of the Commercial Club to-
morrow night. The Commercial
Club of Roseburg has sent a COM
munication to the club here asking
that our club join them in request
that the legislature use the pruning
knife freely. Everybody is in favor
of economy, but just where to begin
is something of a problem. Come
out to the club and give expression
to your views.

Pendleton has two mayors, John
Dyer, as chairman of the council, has
been acting mayor since the death
of Mayor w. F. Matlock, several
months ago. Friday the council
adopted a resolution electing r. F.
Kirkpatrick mayor. Quo warranto
proceedings will be instituted in the
circuit court tomorrow by Dyer, cal
ling upon the newly chosen execu-
tive to show by what authority he
claims the Office. The case will then
be rushed through the courts as rap
idly as possible until the supreme
court decides which, if either, OF
these men shall be mayor. Attorneys
insist that it will be necessary to hold
a special election.
The question was brought up by a

chased the last issue of water bonds,

when signed by Dyer as mayor until
the courts had ruled that he is enti-
tied to sign them.--Spokesman-Re

SCHOOL NOTES.
By Supt. S. Z. Notson.

The circulars of information in
regard to the reading circle work
have not been received at the Office
yet. | would suggest that teachers
who are ready to begin work might
write to Prof. H. D. Sheldon, Exten-
sion Department, University of Ore
gon, Eugene, and ask him for en-
rollment blanks. Teachers should
not delay taking up the work. The
University is trying to make the
work much more valuable than it has
been heretofore, and the plan will
certainly prove satisfactory to teach
ers and superintendents alike.
At a reception rendered Mr.. T. j.
Gary, the new principal of the Brook
lyn school in Portland, Supt. Alder
man said that he mad found Mr..
Gary "a valuable educator, alert, ac-
tive, sympathetic, and progressive;
that the most humble pupil will have
Mr.. Gary's sympathy and encourage
ment.' Speaking somewhat along
the same line, Prof. Rugh, of the
University of California, said, at the
State Teachers Association, I'm the
past we have treated children as
small editions of grown up people.
This is mistake And the truly
successful teacher is the one who can
get the child's viewpoint and SYM
pathize with him in his work, his
trials, and his problems. A man
who holds a prominent official posi-
tion in the state and who is also a
member of the board of education of
his town, some time ago, in making
some investigation concerning a lady
who had applied for a position in
the schools of his town, asked, Does
she have a real interest in her pupils,
or is she interested only in pro-
fessicnal' way? Does she really
sympathize with the pupils in their
struggles?' Our late writer's on ped
agogy are emphasizing this qualifca-
tion of the teacher. They do not
advocate a soft, gushing sort of SYM
pathy which is expressed in many
words, but real, heartfelt interest
in the pupil and his work. AS teach
ers, let us cultivate this side of our
nature, and we will be able to reach
many pupil who finds school work
irksome.
1t is a pleasure to note the num-
Der of teachers who are acquiring
skill in the Palmer system of pen
manship. Miss Ida Olson, of Dis
trict No. 2S, will pardon me for say
ing that the speciman of her writing
recently received at this Office is one
of the best that has been produced in
the county. wish every teacher in
the county might take advantage OF
the free correspondence course Of
fered by the Palmer Company.

IDEAL MAIL ROUTE IS
SUGCESTEDbY CARSNER
One Route Would Serve Hardman,
Spray Territory and Monument,
Says Wheeler County Man.

A mail route from Heppner, which
would serve Hardman, Parkers Mill,
territory adjacent to Spray, Hay
stack Valley and Monument, is being
proposed by R. j. Carsner of Spray,
who has been in Heppner the past
week taking the matter up with the
local business men and the Heppner
Commercial Club.
According to Mr.. Carsner, mail for
Hardman would leave Heppner in the
evening, going from Hardman to
Monument the next day. He is agi-
tating daily service. There are rs
families in the Haystack region who
could be served on this route between
Spray and Monument, who at the
present time are not on any mail
route according to Mr. Carsner.
1.-The establishing of this route
would possibly mean the re-estab-
fishing of a post-office at Wagner,
said Mr.. Carsner. When asked why
he had not planned the route 10 IN
clude Spray, he said: SPRAY is now
being served from route from Con-
don by the way of Fossil and they
are satisfied; it is the people OF Hay
stack and Monument, who do their
trading in Heppner that are clamor-
ing for the new route
Mr.. Carsner says that he has a
personal interest in the matter, but 1t
is of far more Importance to Hepp-
ner than to any one individual
therefore he is asking the people OF
Heppner to get behind the PROPOSE
tion and give it all their support.
Mr.. Carsner is having a petition
drawn up which will be circulated
among the many residents Of his sec
tion in a short time.

ner High has had chance to do any
thing in tht line of track athletics

and prospects at this time are very
encouraging
The early part of the afternoon
session Monday was taken up with a
student body meeting. Many matters
were brought up for consideration; ;
among them being the disposition Of
funds received from the Lyceum
course and Othtr entertainments
which the school has In view. 1t
was decided that all money over and
above expenses, received from the

eral manager and committee was
appointed to take his place. Harley
Adkins, Harry Morgan and Earl
Gordon compose this committte and

GRANT COUNTY MAN
WILL FACE GRAND JURY
Writer of Valueless Checks Bound
Over to Grand Jury.

oliver Wisby of Monument was
bound over to the grand jury under
three hundred dollars bond, in the
hearing before Justice Cornett last
Monday afternoon.
Mr.. Wisby, who is a Grant county
farmer and stockman, came to Hepp-
ner last week and made several pur-
chases from various business houses
in the city and paid for the same in
checks on the First National Bank
Of this city. His first offense was
made when he bought $500 worth of
beans from Frank Fuchs at the
Heppner Bakery. He also bought
some paint and paper from Vickers
and Summerfield, purchase amount
ing to about 1920. He gave Mr..
Vickers check for $1,000 receiving
change in return, less the amount of
purchase. These checks were re-
IuSeQ payment on presentation at the
bank on account of mo funds" In
the meantime Mr.. Wisby had left

brought back to Heppner by deputy
sheriff, Willard Herren.
At one time, in the early part of
September, 1914, Wisby had made a
deposit at the First National Bank
of $50. This was checked out and a
statement was mailed from the bank
notifying the accused that his ac-
count had expired. Wisby claims
that he never received the statement
and believed his credit good. He has
retained S. E. Van Vactor as his at
torney.
