Drivers work their way west on Second Street downtown The Dalles early Thursday morning.
Businesses and homeowners are required to keep the city’s sidewalks clear, and pile snow on private
property, not on the streets.

Snow removal a city-wide effort
The City of The Dalles
Public Works Department
has been making sure equip-
ment is in good repair and
has stocked up to prepare
our response to winter storm
events with snow forcast for
the city this week.
But City resources will be
stretched to capacity now that
the snows have begun, and
the job of snow removal is
too big for city crews to tackle
alone, according to a press
release from the public works
department.
You can assist city crews
with winter storms by making
sure that your following
equipment is in good repair
and supplies are on hand:
• Snow shovel and/or snow
blower (with gas).
• Cooking spray for the
snow shovel, so snow won’t
stick to the blade.
• A stiff broom to sweep
snow off of porches and
decks.
• Waterproof gloves with a
good grip; waterproof boots
with good traction.
• Pet-friendly, child-safe,
salt-free deicer that won’t
harm cement surfaces.
While City crews are
working hard, citizens will be
asked to help:
• First priority: sand and/
or shovel sidewalks adjacent
to homes or businesses. Safe
passage should be cleared
within the first two hours of
daylight each day. Shoveled
snow must be piled on
private property, not in the
street.
• Second priority: help a
neighbor clear the sidewalk
in front of their home. Snow
that has accumulated on
cars that are parked on city
streets should be removed
so that City plow operators
will see the parked cars.
Contractor or volunteer
organization can be con-
tacted if you need help with
snow removal.
For more snow response
information and a flyer
about safe sidewalks and
snow shoveling safety, visit
thedalles.org/transporta-
tion or call the public works
office at 541-296-5401.

CARBON AND OXYGEN REVEAL THE DIVINE PLAN #9
The number 8 is a very interesting number in Scripture and in
Creation. The last Jewish festival of the year, the 3rd one was a
gathering of the last fruits of the growing season. This festival
was called Feast of Booths or Ingatherings. The 3rd time
human beings will be changed from a carbon based #6 to an
oxygen based #8 body will also be the last time. There is no
8th day in the creation week account but there is an 8th “day”
or an 8th one thousand year period. The first time we read of
the number 8 in relation to the removal of carbon based flesh is
in Genesis. If you did not know it all Jewish boys are circum-
cised on their 8th day of life. Flesh is removed. At the
beginning of the 8th one thousand year period right after the
completion of the 1 thousand year Kingdom period here on
earth all human beings will be raised and judged. This final
event of removing the ways of the “flesh” reflects the cutting
away of the flesh from the Jewish male infant on his 8th day.
The beginning of this 8th “day” is the beginning of eternity.
The number 8 on its side is the scientific symbol of eternity.
Death will be no more. 1st Cor. 15, “then comes the end, when
the Son delivers up the kingdom to the Father, when He has
abolished all rule and authority and power…until all His ene-
mies are under His feet…the last enemy to be abolished is
death.” 6-8-3 is the numerical symbol that defines the plan of
salvation for this dying earth.
