Page 4 Illinois Valley News, Cave Junction, OR Wednesday, January 3, 2007 Clinic opening awaiting water, sewer connections BY SCOTT JORGENSEN IVN Staff Writer Construction on the new Siskiyou Community Health Center (SCHC) in the city of Cave Junction has been completed for months, but the building cannot yet be opened. However, all that is ex- pected to change once infra- structure for the project is put into place. Work is currently un- der way by Copeland Con- struction to install water and sewer lines to the facility. Those improvements are being funded by a commu- nity development block grant, and the city is work- ing with SCHC to imple- ment it. Because of the work, some traffic delays are oc- curring. Mildred Crain A private service was held for Mildred Crain, 96, of Cave Junction, who died Tuesday, Dec. 26, 2006 at her residence in Cave Junction. The family guest book and condolences are available at www.stephensfc.com. Mrs. Crain was born on Jan. 21, 1910 to John & Laura Clinton in Hochatown, Okla. She married Nobel Crain, who preceded her in death. They lived together in Crescent City, Calif. from 1942 until she moved to Cave Junction in 1976. She worked briefly at Crescent Plywood & Blue Roof Café. She enjoyed sewing, gar- dening, cooking and spending Mason said that when the center opens at the north end of town, Illinois Valley resi- dents will have access to high- quality health care. “Asante Health System partnered with us,” she said, “and they’re going to take over the lab and our X-ray, and open it so (Photo by Scott Jorgensen, ‘Illinois Valley News’) the whole pub- lic can use it.

St. Patrick of the Forest Catholic Church Jan. 7 celebrates the Epiphany of the Lord. The Gospel reading is from Mat- thew, Chapter 2, describing the visit of the Magi, whom Herod asked to bring him word when they found the child Jesus. When they saw the child with Mary they prostrated themselves and offered him gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. And having been warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they went home by another way. Seventh-day Adventist Church, Cave Junction By Patty Hyland Our Christmas pageant titled “By The Fireside” was the highlight of the Sabbath service Saturday, Dec. 23. The choir sang two lovely Christmas hymns, and there were several solos in-between acts of the play. After the wor- ship service, the children took a red stocking from the Christ- mas tree in the foyer and re- moved the gifts inside and re- placed the stocking on the tree with their offering for Jesus in the stocking.

The Oregon Dept. of Transportation (ODOT) strongly urges drivers to come prepared when travel- ing on Interstate 5. Under chain requirements on Siski- you Pass, one-to-two-hour delays are not uncommon during the high-volume travel periods this time of year. “We’re seeing lowering snow levels, which will cause delays on the Sis- kiyous into Northern Cali- fornia to Redding,” said ODOT District Manager John Vial. “We’re at the Gymnastics Revolution New Community-Oriented Program • Designed for girls, boys, teens, & adults of ALL ages!

Typing in “Christmas” under the various formats (books, DVD, music CD, etc.) yields well over 2,000 titles. “Juvenile Christmas” books alone number 984, “Christmas decorations” another 281. “Hanukkah” produces 116 entries (in all formats), while “Jewish holidays” offers a total of 43. “Kwanza,” however, is a bit limited in it’s offerings, numbering only 3. Whether the quantity is great or small, hopefully all can find just what they need for their December holidays.
