INTERESTED IN THE
JOHN DAY PROJECT

F. R. Brown, of this city, is in
receipt of letter of recent date
from Hon. N. j. Sinnott, concerning
the John Day irrigation project, in
which he says:
Il had talk yesterday morning
with Director Davis concerning the
state and government cooperative
report upon the John Day Irrigation
project. The director informed me
that he had been investigating all
the various irrigation projects re-
ferred to in the different co-opera-
tive reports and that he was of the
opinion that the John Day project
was very expensive one. l shall
be glad to submit to the director of
the Reclamation Service any data or
information you may have not set
forth in the cooperative report.
However, would suggest that If
possible your district send to Wash
ington your engineer or some one
W lNil lHt pIOJtIl
from an engineering standpoint and
lot him take up the matter in person
with the director of the Reclamation
Service. This has been done by
those interested in irrigation along
the Deschutes river and in Malheur
county, Oregon.
I'm case. the appropriation for one
hundred million dollars for homes
for returning soldiers passes as urg-
ed by Secretary Lane succeeds it is
his intention to choose one or two
projects in each arid land state. He
says that he will choose the most
feasible projects. While | would be
glad to submit any data in favor of
your project | could not do this with
the force and intelligence that your
engineer or some one thoroughly
con2ersant with the project could do.
| am daily receiving letters from
prospective projects in Oregon and
am advising them all whenever it is
possible to send an engineer to
Washington and take up the matter
in person with the department.
I'm these hearings l shall be glad
to render any service that | can to
your project as we'll as other pro-
jects called to my attention. 1t will
be two weeks possibly before the
Appropriation Committee decides
whether or not 1t will favor the
above appropriation.
"If | can be of any further service
in this matter let me know"

The property of the county as the
rear of the Star theater, where the
road machinery and tools have been
stored, has been sold to Vaughn 4
Sons and just as soon as the same
is vacated by the county, they expect
to work over the buildings and
premises and make store room for
new and second hand automobiles
and other vehicles. The county Is
arranging to have a new building
put up on the lots purchased last
week at the Fair Grounds. This will
be dual purpose building, so con-
structed as to be of use for shelter
ing stock when the fair is in pro
gress, and at which time the most
of the machinery will be out on the
roads at work. Plans are being
drawn for this work and the county
will soon be ready to ask for bids on
the material necessary for the con-
struction.

LADIES TO BOOST FOR
CIVIC IMPROVEMENT
Organization Perfected With Object
In View OF Making Heppner
More Attractive.

With the highly commendable ide;
in view of making Heppner more
beautiful ard thus a better town tc
live in, meeting was called of the
women Of TIC city to meet with
Mayor Vauhgn on Wednesday even
ing at the Council rooms. In re-
sponse to the request of the Mayor
number Of the leading ladies were
present and an organization was
launched with the eloction of Ada
M. Ayers as president, Carrie Waugh
an, vice president and Sylvia Wells
secretary treasurer.
Mayor Vaughn acted cs temporary
chairman of the meeting and brought
up the matters he has had in mind
Tor some time, touching bettcrments
for the city and stated how he
thought an organization of the wo-
men would be the means of bringing
these things about. The Mayor also
stated that it was his intention to
offer prizes for displays of flowers
and shrubs to be made each year at
the county fair for series Of years,
the object being to stimulate the
growing of. flowers and plants in the
homes and on the grounds of the
citizens. AS stated by the Mayor,
there will be numerous questions
about various improvements coming
up that the women are particularly
interested in putting over, and their
sense of the fitness OF things makes
them particularly qualified to take
hold Of the job
Others addressed the meeting on
the subject of similar organizations
elsewhere, and what they had ac-
complished, and there was no small
amount of enthusiasm and interest
manifested
The ladies will begin at once the
work of interesting all the women of
the town to become members of the
organization and the work of making
Heppner beautiful will be taken up
in earnest.
The Mayor gave the ladies' much
encouragement in regard to the water
situation, stating, that while he felt
an additional supply of water could
not now be had for the coming sum-
mer, yet the steps were being taken
to secure this by at least another
season, and he could guarantee that
what was wanted in this direction
would be forthcoming, though the job
was big one.
With an organization of this ma
ture, working in conjunction with
the city government, it is expected
that the library will soon be re-
established on good footing, and
made better than ever This move
will receive hearty support The
ladies will use their influence in
getting lot of new sidewalks built,
backyards and alleys will be cleaned
up, and in fact there is no end to the
good things for Heppner that we
may confidently look forward to.

|LyCEUM NUMBER COM,
| |NG;O1HER HIS. NOTES

| The next number of the Ellison
White lyceum course will be pre-.
sented at the High School Auditor
ium Wednesday night, February 26
On account of the hanging up of
everything during the influenza
epidemic it has made it impossible
for the lyceum company to furnish
the numbers first signed for and in
stead are furnishing substitute lum.
bere to complete the schedule. Tha
number which will be presented
February 26th is the Ioni2n Serena
ders, a company consisting of four
young women who sing, read and
play skilfully both in ensemble and
individual selections. The price of
admission has not been definitely
decided upon but will probably be
75c for adults and 35c for children
and students. Everybody should
attend this number as it will be a
rare treat.
After having been closed down for
five weeks during the flu ban school
has been running again for couple
of weeks. The students were all a
little blue at first because of the
prospects of not being able to COM
plete the years work, but when told
by the heads of the institution that
1t was possible for everyone to make
their credits if an excess of energy
was applied, everybody has been
digging in" and the failures this
year will probably be below what
they are in normal times.
The High School basket ball quin-
tet played the Town Team a fast
game of basket ball last evening, but
the town boys were little too much
for the less experienced basket
tossers of the school as is shown by
the uneven score of 16 to 6. After
practicing a bit more, however, we
firmly believe we shall have fair
team and are now arranging for
some outside games. The schedule
will be announced as soon as com
pleted.
Two girls teams of the High
School the Submarines and the
Cruisers as they were named, put on
basket tossing exposition to COM
plete a double header. This game
was hard fought from start to finish
but the Subs, getting off with a
pretty good lead, were able to keep
the upper hand throughout the game
and the final score showed II to s
in their favor. The girls are taking
great interest in basket ball and
will play more games for the benefit
Of the public later.

WOULD RESERVE NAL.
HEUR LAKE FOR BIRDS
The Attempt of Those Who Would
Commerciaiize This Natural
Breeding Ground Should
BE Defeated.

House Bill 376. now before the
Legislature, would be the means of
preserving to the United States and
'he state of Oregon, the great ma
'ural breeding grounds and wild fowl
reserve of Malheur Lake-Interests
are working at present that would
destroy this and commercialize the.
lands covered by the waters of the
Iake, by drainage. The bill now he
fore the legislature is a step to pre-
vent this, and we gladly give space to
me following letter of State Biologist
Finley:
Portland, February 8, 1919
Editor, The Gazette Times,
Heppner, Oregon.
Dear Sir:
theodore Roosevelt was the most
far-sighted President this countrv
ever had in saving our wild birds
rom eXtermination He said that
Wild birds were absolutely necessary
to future agricultural DEVELOPMENT
IN the United States. because they
are the natural check upon insects
and other pests that take sSO0.O0O.-
600 annual toll from the farmers.
He saw tne complete extermina-
zion of the myriads OF wild pigeons
Of eastern North America, because
'Eese birds were not protected on
heir breeding grounds. The COM
mon people were thus deprived of a
food supply.
August Is, 1908, President Roose-
welt issued a special proclamation
creating Malheur Lake as a Federal
Wild Bird Reservation. 1t is re-
.cognized as the greatest wild bird
refuge in North America. 1t is one
OF our greatest memorials to Theo-
dore Roosevelt.
Promoters under the guise of in
creasing agricultural land in Harney
county, have lobby at Salem to
drain this alkaline lake and use the
alkali-crusted soil to lure new set
tiers to Oregon. Their completed
plans to destroy Malheur Lake Res
ervation are now before the State
Land Board for action.
The Department of Agriculture at
Washington has had charge of this
area and since 1908, has paid war
dens to protect it. Oregon is NOR
ally bound not to commit the COM
mercial crime of destroying it.
Malheur Lake Reservation is as
wonderful as Crater Lake, Mt Hood
or the Columbia Highway. 1t is an
asset to Oregon and the United
States as one of the last great wild
fowl nurseries.
l appeal to you and to your read
ers to help us pass House Bill 376,
ceding jurisdiction of Malheur Lake.
to the Government and letting it
continue its charge. Governor
Withycombe recommended this in
his message to the legislature.
Oregon is great out-of-door state
and as such is attracting people
from all over the United States. If
any of your readers are interested,
should be glad to hear from them
Sincerely,
WILLIAM l.. FINLEY,
State Biologist.
