yay!! Wc arc finally enjoying
the warmth of summer these
past few days after months of
cold, miserable weather.
All during those cold days the
general saying was, "When will
we ever get some good warm
weather?" Well, it happened and
the first thing some people said,
"Oh! This miserable heat!"
No one is ever completely satis
fied with whatever kind of
weather there is. If it snows, we
don t want it. If it rains we don't
want it. So, what's there to do?
One thing is for certain now.
We are enjoying some nice hot
days. The hay fields look like
tney are ready to be cut and you
know what that means. Every
time people cut their hay, it rains, and the hay must be dry before it
can be baled. One time in the past there was a personal joke like
whenever it rained it was said, "Ed must have cut his hay!" There
were all kinds of reasons why we have been having such bad
weather but no one can really tell why it has been the way it was.
With the good weather at hand, there are a lot of picnics and
outings going on with people having a ball outdoors, but the sad
thing of the whole situation is with the warm weather here perks up
the fire danger in the country. The grasslands are real dry and can
become a pretty hot fire in no time at all. With the rains we've had
this year, the grass is pretty tall in spots and grew right up to the
sides of old buildings which makes it more dangerous. So everyone
better be careful with fire and in some places, if Smokey catches
you smoking ne win crusn your Dutt.'! Ann-Nahh-Lhi-I ooiv
Nephew expresses affection
What is an uncle?.,
An uncle is a person who you can look up to when
you are a little boy or when you are a grown man.
He Is someone who is like a father to you and gives
you all his love with no questions asked.
An uncle is the person who has all the answers when
you need the answers.
He is also the person who takes you places when
your own father does not have enough time for you.
An uncle is also a loving and caring man who shares
all his love with you and always goes to your football
and baseball games.
He treats you like his own son and he talks to you
like an adult even when you are a little boy.
He takes you on vacations and fishing trips and on
outings with his family and makes you feel like you fit
in with his family even though you are only his
nephew.
An uncle is a loving, caring person who makes me
feel like an important person.
You fit in all these catagories and much more so you
are the greatest uncle a nephew can ever be blessed
with.
I love you uncle.
Your loving nephew,
Luke Sanders
Employee says "Thank you"
To the editor,
I would like to take this time to
thank the Confederated Tribes for
the beautiful gold diamond watch
band and watch with the tribal flag
on it given to me at the 16th
Annual Awards Luncheon. Also, I
would like to thank the Award,,
committee, Benny Heath, Norma 1
M. Smith and Antoinette Pampe
rien, for all the work they put into
the Awards Luncheon. I think a lot
of people don't realize how much
work is involved into getting the
Awards Luncheon together. I saw
how stressful it was waiting for the
rings to arrive. (They were rushed
in just as Norma was ready to hand
out the awards).
Ante is to be complimented for
all of her hard work into research
ing all of the records and making
sure everyone is getting credit for
all of the time spent working for
the Tribe. She was digging deep
into my files looking for student
trainee work time. I wouldn't have
gotten my award this year if it wer
en't for the months counted as a
student trainee.
Also, I would like to mention
what a wonderful meal was pre
pared by Geri Blodgett and her
helpers. And lastly, I would like to
thank my neice, Robyn Ike, for her
hard work baking the cakes, mak
ing the puddings and frostings for
me that were used for the lunch
eon.

There was this not-so-bright guy who went to the basketball game.
He stood in line for quite a while and finally bought a good seat. A
few minutes later, there he was in line again. He gets to the window
to buy another ticket. The clerk said, "I just sold you a ticket. What
are you doing here again?"
"I had no choice. The man at the door tore it in half." YIKES

Evette advises
against driving
drunk
To the editor,
Hi you all once more on the Res.
How are you all now? As for me, I
just want the res to know, that the
Evette Patt
upper higher number one greater
power called God is really with me
now, but I want everyone to know
from Warm Springs that He is
always with everyone here on
earth!
How I really know He is with me
now, is that when I was in that very
terrible automobile accident on
March 17, 1987 trying to act cool
drinking and driving, I was in a
coma for 9 months and even died
for 10 minutes from cardiac arrest
too!
I also want you all to know that
God got me out of that wheelchair
that I was in for 2'i years too, but
the greatest thing he has done for
me now, is that I'm not in that
brain-damaged rehabiliatation cen
ter no more. And when I used to be
in that center, they all told me there
that they really can't see how I'm
one bit brain-damaged.
Well, I just moved into a new
adult foster group home, and this
one other older women I got to
meet and know turned me more
into a Portland Trailblazers fan
now, and alright! They are so cool.
If I was in a very bad automobile
accident a little over 4 years ago
from trying to act cool drinking
and driving. I'm so forever grateful
that God found his time to give me
a second chance and ressurected
me from the dead the most too! I'm
in a new house now if anyone else
would like to write to me.
Hallelujah!
