Mrs. George Noble enjoyed pleas
ant visit the past week from her
brother, MIR. Alex Gray, of Oregon
City. Mr.. Gray lived in this county
at one time, but this was many long
years ago and when he was a mere
slip of a boy. He remembers quite
we'll some of the very stirring times
in the early seventies, and recalled
the time when he and Frank Gillian,
with other residents of the Rhea
creek settlement had fight with the
Indians who frequented these parts
during the summer seasons. They
became troublesome at times and the
settlers had to chastise them. This
was previous to the time of the In
dian uprising that caused so much
excitement in and about Heppner.
The pioneers of those days had some
experiences worth while but they
came through all right. Mr.. Gray
could recall much of interest that
happened when he was a resident Of
the Heppner hills and he greatly en-
ioyed the few days he spent in this
city visiting his relatives and renew
ing old acquaintances. He returned
to his Oregon City home the first of
the week.

.Umatilla Is Invaded
By the Army Worm

The army worm has made its ap-
pearance in Umatilla county, and re-
cent inspection of 250 acre wheat
tract in Combs Canyon has disclosed
the fact that this pest has destroyed
about 35 acres of wheat. According
to the Pendleton Tribune, which has
taken specimens of the worm and
placed them on display, the first re-
ports of the worms appearance were
brought to Pendleton by Charles H.
Olcott, a prominent farmer of the
Birch creek section, who sent several
of the worms to the Agricultural Col
lege.
James Eldridge, on whose place
the worms have made their appear
ance, first discovered the damage
done by the worms three weeks ago,
when he found a path along the ra-
vine half mile long and from so to
so yards wide entirely devoid of veg
citation. Later he went out to re-
seed this strip and found that it was
twice its former width. The discov-
cry of the worm resulted. Accord
ing to Eldrige, There's millions of
Them" when asked as to the number
of these worms. Great care is being
taken to prevent the spread of the
pest.

NJ. S. Maxwell, merchant at Park
ers Mill, is suffering quite severely
from injuries received one day this
week by the kicking back of the
starting crank of Ford. A bone
was broken in the back of his right
hand and his wrist was badly sprain-
ed, causing him lot of pain. The
injuries required the attention of a
physician and DR.. Gaunt of Hardman
dressed the hand and put it on the
road to recovery. Milt says it is no
joke cranking a Ford especially when
the "critter' kicks back, and there
are others who can offer similar tes-
timony.

BETTER ROADS HAVE TAKEN A FIRM
HOLD ON THE HEPPAER COMMERCIAL CLUB
Monday Evenings Special Session Brings Forth Much
Important Business Good Roads Banquet Will
Be Given Tomorrow Night.

That better roads is question that
has taken firm hold upon the Hepp-
ner Commercial Club, is evidenced by
the interest taken by the members at
a special meeting on Monday even
ing. The Club has decided to work
up more united spirit and will hold
O Good Roads" banquet at the Pal
ace Hotel tomorrow friday night
at 700 o'clock. Tickets are being
sold for this feed for S1.00 apiece,
and it is thought that upwards of $50
champions Of better roads will at
tend. The Club is making a special
effort to get the State Highway Engi-
neer and other speakers to be present
and address the meeting on good
roads.
The secretary read communica-
ton from VIM. McMurray, General
Passenger Agent of the o. w. R. & n.
Co., in regard to an inquiry about
the feasibility of establishing -four
mill at Heppner. The matter was
referred to the committee on Trade
Promotion.
The committee on Streets and
Roads made report ON the Willow
creek road, above Heppner 1t was
their belief that the three farms of
Byland, Neville and Minor would be
benefited by this change of road and
that they ought to help secure the
right OF way. Mr.. Cason submitted
two propositions on right of way
through his place as follows:
First--I will sell to Morrow county
for a road off the north side of my
place, for $3.50 per acre, providing
that the said county will take all OF
the land from the mill ditch to the
lower fence, and connect all water
pipes SO that can irrigate from be-
low the road. Also re-fence with
same kind of fence that l now have,
and build bridge for me across
Willow creek or leave the one across
Balm Fork for my use.
Second will take in exchange
for every acre of land taken by the
new county road off the north side of
my place, providing said county will
take all of said land from the ditch
to the lower fence on south side of
road) for one and one-half acres of
the John Byland ranch, which joins
my land and is on the east side of my
place. All fences to be placed on
lines of same quality that are now on
place, without any cost to me, and a
bridge across Willow creek so that
can get to the county road, or leave
the present bridge across Balm Fork,
which | would rather have. Also
connect four two inch pipes that |
now have connected with the Hepp-
ner Milling Co. ditch so | can irrigate

MINSTREL SHOW AND
PROGRAM NETS $500

The High School Literary favored
A sood sized audience with a splendid
program on Friday evening last at
the auditorium. A small admission
fee of 20 cents was charged, and the
eXchequer of the Society was streng
thened to the amount of better than
$500, which money goes to help
defray expenses of the athletic equip
ment OF the school
The first part of the program con-
sisted of a number of songs and we'll
rendered destinations. These latter
were given by students from Mrs.
Weddings class in elocution, and the
talent that she is developing was a
delightful surprise to the audience.
The readings were all of high class
and each individual effort was a dem
onstration of the careful training
they had received. Some of the
young men and young ladies under
instruction of Mrs. Wedding are de-
veloping great talent in the elocu-
tionary line and they should be en-
couraged to continue their studies of
the art.
The fun making feature of the pro-
gram was the Jackson Min
strels that had just come to town.
This troupe was made up entirely of
High School students, and there were
some great darkies in the bunch.
The boys were strikingly costumed
in brilliant red suits and made a
great hit with the audience by their
songs and quaint jokes. The per-
Torrance was short and snappy and
full of life from start to finish. The
following composed the company:
Harley Adkine and Clarence Scriv
ner, end men; Spencer Crawford, in
terlocutor; Chas. Barlow, Elra Hayes,
Paul Gemmell, Earl Gordon, Vawter
Crawford, Stephen Irwin, Lester Par
ker, David Wilson, Henry Peterson
Tom Hughes, Ed Clark and Loren
| Mikesell.
We shall anXiously await another
performance by this colored aggre
cation.
