the Sunday School does its work a
little better than the same work can
be done at home. In the first place,
children are drawn to other children.
They naturally tend to work or play
in groups; to be with other children
initiating or joining intheir activities
gives incentive to Sunday School
work.
The Sunday School carries on a
regular and systematic course of
Bible study, adapted to the ages of
children, and presenting the most
suitable Bible material in an attrac-
tive form.
A visit to the live modern Sunday
School in the average church would
be means of enlightenment and
surprise to many. Hand work, sim
pie songs, and rhythm for little chill.
dren. and home work, class competi-
ton, and even dramatics and pag-
eantry for the older ones, have been
the means of making Bible study de-
lightful, attractive. and absolutely
indispensable to our children.
There are ways in which we pa
rents can and ought to cooperate
wit hthe Sunday School. Our chill.
dren can learn to be punctual and
regular. We should show our inter-
est in their progress and experience.
How proud they would be If father
or mother would also go to Sunday
School, perhaps to the adult Bible
class. "A littlec hid shall lead
them" Then let us have faith in the
old Bible promise:
Train up child in the way he
should go; and when he is old he
win not depart from it."-Mary Col

There seems to be general i'm
preston that high valuations are re.
sponsible for high taxes. For the
most part this is wrong. In the
first place the law recognizes but
one valuations cash value. In
the eyes of the law there is no such
thing as high valuations in the
matter of taxation. Every piece of
property is to be assessed at its full
value, no more and no less. Tn the
second place, the various taxing units
determine the amount Of money need
ed for the year and fix their levies
accordingly, If it were possible ac-
cording to law 10 assess at prices be-
low values, then the taxing units
would Immediately advance their
levies to a level necessary to raise
the funds needed and there would
be no reduction in taxes through that
avenue. The proper thing to do is
TO assess all property at its fair cash
value and avoid determinations and
then the taxing bodies must keep

their levies at the lowest possible
figures to raise money to care for
actual necessities.
An examination Of the levies in
Iron County shows reductions in
some instances, few increases and
some that were held at the 1920
level. The only increase in the state
levy was for district schools and was
made necessary by the law requir-
ing the state to raise $25 per school
capita for district school purposes.
The levy for the state general fund
was reduced two-tenths of a mill or
about per cent as compared With
1920. To enable you TO yitual,.e

from them you will observe that the

ECHO IS DEFEATED
By HEPPNER NINE

In the initial ball game of the
season on Gentry field Sunday after
noon between Echo and Heppner,
the former went down to defeat in
what is said to be one Of the best
games yet played on Heppner
grounds, by score Of 8 to 4, and
Manager Van Marter is very proud
of the showing made by his ball toss
ers. Echo had good team, and they
fought hard to maintain lead that
they had up to the sixth inning, and
the victory was by no means a walk
over for Heppner.
Broughton was in the box for
Heppner, and Fred Griffin received.
Fred had just arrived from the ranch
without practice, and was little soft
and not altogether sure of his deliv-
cry to second, but the battery was
safe, and Broughton proved his abil-
ity to deliver ball over the plate
that was hard to negotiate.
Other players on the local team
we're high school lads, Witcraft at
third and Paul Aiken in left field,
and they are comers. The Heppner
aggregation will be able to give a
good account of themselves, we are
sure, when other games are called,
and on Sunday next they will get
chance to further demonstrate their
metal in game with the lone team
!. w. Heard demonstrated his abil-
ity and knowledge of the game by
acting as umpire, and he kept things
moving at such pace that the fans
were made to forget the rather in
clement weather conditions.

Alderdale People Are
Interested In Ferry

A hearing was set for 1880 a. m.
last Friday at Boulder station on the
O.-W. R. and N. line just south of
Alderdale, Wash, at which time the
Public Service commission were to
consider the application of A. B..
Strait made to them through the
county court Of Morrow county, for
a crossing over the railway right-of-
way and track at that point.
Being greatly interested in this
ferry, which Mr. Strait has estab-
lished between Boulder, Oregon and
Alderdale, Wash, on the Columbia
the residents of the latter place had
prepared to receive the commission
and all other interested parties and
visitors in fine style, and the ladies
of that community brought across
the river in small boats fine picnic
dinner which was spread in big
tent on the Oregon shore of the Col
umbia, near the ferry landing.
The commission, however, could
not reach Boulder, owing to a hear
ing that was on at Hermiston, so
after all day trains going west had
passed this point, a delegation was
chosen to accompany the members
of the Morrow county court to Her.
miston, where, on Friday evening,
testimony of the railroad company
and the petitioners was taken and
submitted to the Public Service COM
mission, Attorney F. A. McMenamin
of Heppner representing the peti-
TONERS.
The establishing of this ferry will
mean much to the people of the
Washington side, as it will give them
an all-year outlet and connect up a
large section of the state of Wash
ington with the Columbia highway
The ferry will doubtless be good
paying proposition when once estab-
lished and open to the travelling pub
| lie.

{. NJ. HU[DEN FILES
FOR LEGISLATURE

E. M. Hulden, prominent resident
of Morrow county and extensive
wheat raiser of the Blackhorse Sec
ton, who has been urged for a num-
Der Of weeks past to get into the
race for joint representative from
Morrow and Umatilla counties on
the republican ticket, this week filed
with the secretary of state as can
didate before the May primaries for
this place.
He has adopted as his slogan,
Constructive economy and fairer
distribution of the tax burden" His
platform contains the following sal
lent points: Favor Legislation tend
ing to eliminate waste in public ex-
penditures, and reduction of taxes
wherever possible, consistent with
sound public policy; absolutely
against county division"
Mr.. Hulden is a native Oregonian,
having been born, raised and educat-
ed in Salem, where, upon finishing
school he entered upon a business
career with the Capitol National
bank. He remained with this insti-
tuition for two years and then took
a position with banking institution
| in Portland as assistant cashier and
a stockholder and director, and serv-
ed with this bank until it was sold
and consolidated with another bank
ing institution in the city. Selling
out his interests of every nature in
Portland, Mr.. Hulden has been CIV
ing his entire attention to his large
farming interests in this county, be-
ing at present the owner of a tract
Of wheat land in Blackhorse of l245
acres. He came to this county four
years ago, and through his good
business methods has made a sue
cess. He has been connected with
Farm Bureau organization here
since its establishment, as its Secre-
tary-treasurer, and he has consistent
| ly boosted for everything that tends
to the upbuilding of the farming in
dustry.
From a business and educational
standpoint, as we'll as from active
business experience, Mr. Hulden has
fine qualifications for the place he
seeks. From the point Of giving
Morrow county the representation
she is entitled to in the legislature,
Mr. Hulden should receive strong
support from his home county at the
primaries, and he is assured that he
will have strong following in Una
tilla county, where the sentiment is
strong for giving Morrow county this
ntace on the legislative ticket

Morrow County Athletic
Association Needs Funds

The Morrow County Athletic as
sociation was somewhat in debt at
the close of the school term 1919
1920.
1t was the time of the gasoline
shortage and added to this a rainy
day so that the gate receipts were
not sufficient to defray the expense
incurred.
During l920-192l the track-meet
was called off, and no provision was
made toward paying off the indebt-
edness.
This year during county institute,
it was decided to hold a track-meet
but for unavoidable reasons was
found impracticable so that each
school that participated decided to
plan other means for raising its
share.
This week a check for $500 was
received from the Hardman schools,
being the amount raised through the
efforts of the Parent-Teachers or
ganization. This, together with the
cancellation of their bill for trans
portation, is the first to be received
and we wish to thank the organiza-
ton and the teachers for this am
cunt,
The larger schools of the county
are making provision for their share
which Ne hope to receive soon SC
that Morrow county will not be in
debt at the close of this year.

5. E. Van Vactor and R. R.
Butler Form Law Partnership

S. E. Van Vactor, no has been a
prominent attorney in this city for
the past twenty years, has formed
partnership with Judge R, R. But
Ter, of The Dalles and is arranging
to take up his practice there on the
first of the coming month. He does
not expect to move his family before
the close of school.
Mr.. Van Vactor came to this de-
cision rather suddenly, as the prop
osition was put up to him within the
past two weeks. He will not with
draw entirely from practice in Nor
row county, as he expects to retain
a number of clients here and will
visit Heppner often in the course
of business.
During his residence in Heppner,
Mr.. Van Vactor has enjoyed good
practice. He has been prominent in
public affairs, being mayor Of the
city and member Of the school board,
of which he was chairman when the
new school building was constructed,
and to him large credit can be given
for getting the contracts and bonds
of contractors in sound legal shape
and fully protecting the district. His
family have grown up in this city
and they have a beautiful home here,
and both he and they have formed
associations hard to sever.
Mr., Van Vactor is a good attor-
ney; he is forming a partnership
with another good attorney, and they
will have abundant success, we pre-
dict, Van put out his "shingle" in
The Dales when he first began the
practice of law and has numerous
friends in that city, where he and
| his good wife and family will be
made welcome, though Heppner is
sorry to see them go.
