(san Francisco Chronicle.)

lSan Francisco Chronicle.)
 San Jose, Cal.-Scientists, nursery men and fruit growers from widely scattered parts of California gathered recently at the orchard home of Leon ard Coates, nurseryman, to pass judge ment on remarkable new variety oi French prune which Coates has de- veloped during years of patient labor and observation.
 The Coates French prune No. 141S runs about thirty to the pound and is therefore a very large variety" said Coates. And after years of experi- mentation I have become convinced that the type is now fixed and that the new prune is a permanent va riety which can be grown in large quantities.
 The ordinary French prune is long slender, pear shaped. The new Coates rrune is "bIociSy" in shape.

MORO HIGH WINS FROM HEPPNER HIGH

In the game between the Moro and
Heppner schools on the Heppner
grounds last Friday afternoon, the
former won in ten inning game,
5 to Z. The day was anything but
pleasant for the ball players the con-
testants having to battle with wind
and dust as we'll as with their op-
ponents, and the bad weather con-
ditions also made it very unpleasant
for the fans. The contest was a
close one all the way through, though
Heppner lead off we'll in the begin
ming and seemed to have fair pros
poets of winning. She was weak,
however in the field, and 1t was there
the home team fell down. Moro
played winning game with the
lone team on Saturday. At the high
school building on Friday evening
the student body entertained the
Moro ball players in royal style,
forgetting and drowning their dis
appointment on losing the game, in
the pleasures of the evening.

MISSIONARY ORGANIZES
Z NEW SUNDAY SCHOOLS

Clark NJ Smith, missionary of the
American Sunday School Union, was
in Morrow county last week, and he
gives US the following account of two
Sunday Schools organized while he
was here
Great interest in the welfare of the
community was shown Sunday,
April q, when twenty-six people
met for service in the RLgg dis
trict on Rhea creek and expressed
themselves as anxious to have Sun
day school. The following were
elected as officers:
a. L. Pxemo, superintendent.
r. S. Mcclimans, assistant supt.
Miss Rose Stephens, secretary.
Miss Verna McClimans, librarian.
In the afternoon an attendance
of twenty-one in the Mattison district

school in like service, and the fol-
lowing were elected officers:
Mrs. Charlotte Brown, supt.
Mrs. E. Mattison, assistant supt.
Miss Freda Brown, secretary.
Miss Orpha Hogeland, librarian
The boys and girls of these COM
munities have shown great anxiety
for the Sunday school and we surely
owe it to Them as older ones to give
it to them This was so clearly
shown when in another district an
opportunity was given but no one
to supreintend the school could be
found, even though all the boys and
girls expressed themselves in vote
as wanting a Sunday school, and
afterward one boy said "why couldn't
we have a Sunday school here" Any
assistance in way of visits to these
schools will be appreciated.

DOR|C LODGE, K. OF P.
: ENJOYS SOCIAL EVENING

Doric Lodge No. 20, X. of P. had
very pleasant social evening at
their castle hall in |. 0. O. F.
building on Tuesday evening, at
which time a number of members of
the order, their ladies and many
invited guests were present to enjoy
the program and partake of light
refreshments.
Addresses were made by Rev. H.
A. Noyes and Rev. FRANK A. Andrews,
each speaker dwelling largely upon
the benefcent work of the fraterni-
ties. w. c. Worstell, brother
Knight, of Lexington, was the main
speaker to have appeared On the
program, but he was prevented from
attending, so Revs. Noyes and
Andrews were called upon rather
unexpectedly but made good talks on
the subject, nevertheless.
Orchestra music was furnished by
Roy Cochran, j. w. Godfrey, Mrs.
C. L. Sweek and Miss Leona Leach.
A chorus consisting of Mesdames
Cochran, Turner, Misses Lane, Cason
and Messrs. Cochran and Clark
rendered a splendid selection, and
there were vocal solos by Mrs.
Chester Darbee, Miss Gladys Lane
and Miss Zelma Engelman, and
xylaphone solos by Miss Leona Leach,
of Lexington, all of which gives an
estimate of the high class of the
musical part of the entertainment.
w. w. Smead was also one Of the
principal performers on the program
and it fell to his lot to administer
punishment" to member of the
order who had transgressed the
rules recently by committing matri-
money without first having informed
his brethren of his serious intentions.
After some explanation of the
seriousness of the offense, the
Master at Arms was instructed to
bring Mr.. John MacAnally to the
front that he might be reprimanded
in due form, and considering that
Mrs. MacAnally was equally guilty
she was also brought up beside her
husband, whereupon Mr.. Smead, in
a few we'll chosen words, presented
them with beautiful silver bread
tray on behalf of the lodge, as 9
token of esteem in which they were
held by the members and expressed
to them hearty congratulations ano
best wishes for their future. Mr.
and Mrs. MacAnally received theil
sentence" amid confusion Of
smiles and bushes and were then
heartily congratulated by those
present,
Following this refreshments of Ice
cream and waters were served.
