What Is the Matter With

Editors NOte.-WhIle this com.
munleation is an anonymous one,
the writer's identity being unknown
to US. we believe the nature Of the
article Is such that 1t will bear pub
lieation in spite Of the fact that We
are stepping over the bounds Of a
rule never TO publish articles where
the writer has not stood sponsor for
the same. II conditions are as the
writer states. they should be reme-
died. II they are not, all well and
good, no one has been hurt. Not be-
ing a devotee Of the dance, we are
unable to pass judgment one way or
the other. We will leave that TO
those who are more familiar with
the facts. But In view O. the fact
that the Fair is only week away,
and there will BE dancing every night
such conditions as pointed out by the
writer, II they do exist, may be reme-
died.

When attending the dances in
Heppner | have noticed there are so
many people who never get to dance.
Upon giving this closer attention. |
have found that the reason for this is
because these people are given no at
tention whatever. There is a sup.
posed-to-be floor manger who does
nothing but take up tickets, and is
so busy dancing the rest of the time
that he has no time to introduce peo-
pie and see that they get to dance.
A good floor manager Is one who.
besides taking up tickets, gets around
to see that the outside people get TO
dance as we'll as the Heppner people.
have heard so many persons re-
mark about the selishness of the
Heppner people at the dances. Now
the Heppner people are noted for
their hospitality at everything elsa.
Why not be little more hospitable
and courteous at the dances?
The strangers who have come to
this part OF the country have espec-
tally noticed this selfishness. How
can they help but notice It! They at
tend the dances with the expectation
Of dancing and when they get there
they have to sit back like wall flow-
ers" and look on. They do not re-
ceive even one introduction.
Another thing which wish to call
attention to Is the fact that so many
little children get out on the floor.
They do not know how to dance and
they get In the way OF those who do.
The Fair will soon be here with
three big nights OF dancing. Why
not show little more courtesy to the
outside people than has heretofore
been shown. and have them feel that
the Heppner people are the best peo-
pie on earth instead of letting those
people 60 away feeling that the home
people are too selfish and clanish for
anything?

ested will support it to, the extent
of $4,000 within the next few weeks.
Action was taken in this matter at
the meeting of the executive COM

able pledges the trustees will feel
justified in maintaining the school in
its present form on a reorganized
