SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 2020 YOUR BIRTHDAY by Stella Wilder Born today, you are perhaps destined to be remembered for much in life -- but not all of it, and, in fact, maybe very little is likely to have been intentional. This is what makes you “you,” indeed: The ability to take advan- tage of chance events and chance encounters and parlay them into the kinds of successes that others enjoy as a matter of design. SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 22 SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You may not have as much to do today as you had hoped -- or feared. You can make personal adjustments that have a lasting effect. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may not have as much to do today as you had hoped -- or feared. You can make personal adjustments that have a lasting effect. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You are able to do more with less today than almost CLOTHING C&H Cleaning Industries Fine Quality Consignment Clothing 541-963-9210 APPLIANCES APPLIANCES & MORE City of Cove Cove Group 7 - 8:00 pm Baptist Church 707 Main St. Sales Service, Parts & Mattresses Jay and Kristin Wilson – Owners Cell Phone 541-519-2255 www.appliancesandmorellc.com CCB: 219615 y City of Elgin Elgin Group (Winter only) 6:00 PM 70564 Valley View Rd (in shop) SATURDAYS Surrender Group 10 - 11:00 am 2620 Bearco Loop Grande Ronde Valley Group 7 - 8:00 pm Presbyterian Church 1308 Washington Ave. (entry 6th & Spring St.) SUNDAYS Miracles Meeting 10 - 11:00 am 2620 Bearco Loop A.C.T.S.

Do You Need Help? ABC STORESALL anyone around you. He or she who can keep up with you is worth watching carefully. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You’re tempted to give someone some advice today, but think twice! You don’t want anyone to believe you’re overstepping in any way. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- It’s a good day to experiment where personal and pro- fessional interactions are concerned. You needn’t try to prove anything, certainly. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Work put in yesterday begins to pay off today in little ways. You must be patient and avoid trying to force things to happen. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Explore your options today, but know that you have only so much time to decide what you’ll do when you hear the buzzer. Efficiency counts! CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Things are changing around you in ways that you cannot quite comprehend. Perhaps you’re trying too hard; let things run their course. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You can work wonders today by engaging your sense of humor. A well-timed laugh is all it takes to break the ice -- or close a widening rift. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You’re thinking about things in a manner that reveals only part of the truth to you -- and in small doses. Be more open and flexible. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Criticism comes your way today because of something you did some time ago. You may wonder if you’ll ever get out from under that cloud. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You’re not likely to respond well to prodding of any kind today. Make it clear that you’ll do what you can -- but only on your own time.
