The members and friends of the
First Christian chufch of Heppner
gathered at the church parlors on
Wednesday evening, to the number
of about $50, and rendered a recep-
tion to Mrs. w. O. Livingstone, who
has COME from Marion, Kansas, to
begin the work of her husband as
pastor here for the coming year.
A sumptuous feed of chicken and
other delectable edibles had been pre-
pared by the ladies, and under the
direction of the young ladies belong
ing to the young peoples class Of the
Bible school the large company were
seated at the tables and served in a
manner betokening the good head
work and direction Of the head wait
ress, Miss Alma Akers. Instrument
al music and singing also liyened the
occasion.
At the close Of the banquet, toasts
were responded to and there was a
time of general good feeling and fel-
lowship, the first real get-together
meeting of the church since the war,
and it seems to speak volumes for
the immediate future prospects of
the work of the church.
Mr.. Livingstone is expected to ar
rive in Heppner within another cou-

of this church that under the leader
ship of these splendid people there
will be a forward movement in
