boys, 3 adults, and 2 teepees went
camping the weekend before
Thanksgiving at the Ho He Dutie
area.
The first thing the Troop did after
setting up the teepee's and eating
lunch, was to collect more downed
dead wood for the campfire. The
campfire was kept going for warm
ing all day and through the night
until "Lights Out". Knowing how to
build a campfire is an important out
door skill, especial.) ,'n the winter
time. Harry Miller came by the
campground and brought the Troop
some more wood and cut up some of
the branches the scouts collected with
his chain saw. Harry told the scouts
and leaders about some of his expe
riences camping with Scout Troop
59 and his family. The Troop really
appreciated Harry's help and stories.
One of the afternoon activities
was a competition to see who could
build a fire the quickest After the
competition the adults gave the
younger campers lips on finding dry
wood when the forest is wcl The
scouts then went on a number of

International Trade:
International trade, one of the
fastest growing sectors of Oregon's
economy, was Governor Robert's
focus the week of November 8.
On Tuesday, Governor Roberts
joined President Clinton and Mother
governors for a White House news
conference as part of the
Administration's final push for the
North American Free Trade Agree
ment Oregon will be one of the top
winners under NAFTA, whichpassed
the U.S. House of Representatives
Wednesday night. The pact will lower
tariffs, increasing trade opportuni
ties and bringing an additional 3,500
jobs to Oregon over the next five
years. Oregon exports to Mexico have
grown by 450 percent over the last
six years, and will continue to grow
under NAFTA. One in five Oregon
jobs is related to international trade,
and those jobs on average pay 17
percent more than other Oregon jobs.
Governor Roberts followed up by
attending the Asian Pacific Economic
Cooperation forum in Seattle Thurs

Rim countries including many of
Oregon's leading trade partners

To the editor,
I would like to extend my appre

that was held for my father Delbert
on Veteran's Day in Simnasho.
Thanks to Margaret Suppah and
her children, Charlotte Hcrkshan and
Mrs. Leslie Bill for the meal prepara

took me back to the many times Dad
sat and shared with us how his elders

How to get along with others
t.Keep chains on your tongue; always say less than you think.
Cultivate a pleasant, persuasive voice. How you say it often ;
counts more than what you say.
2. Make promises sparingly and keep them faithfully.
3. Never let an opportunity pass to say a kind word to somebody
Praise good work done, regardless of who did it. If correction is
needed, criticize helpfully, never in a destructive manner.
4. Be genuinely interested in others. Let everyone you meet feel
that you regard him or her as a person of importance.
5. Be cheerful. Keep the comers of your mouth turned up. Hide
your pains, wonies and disappointments under a smile.
6. Keep an open mind on all controversial questions. Discuss
without arguing. It is possible to disagree and yet be friendly.
7. Never engage in gossip. Make it a rule to say nothing about
another unless it is something good.
8. Be careful of other people 's feelings. A laugh at another's
expense is rarely worth the effort and It may hurt where least
expected.
9. Pay no attention to cutting remarks that others may make
about you. Learn to live above such comments.
10. Dont be too anxious about your rights and having favors
repaid. Let the satisfaction of helping others serve as is own

After dinner Stony Miller, Grant
Cavalli, Rick Krause and a couple
other of the Jefferson County Search
and Rescue Team, who were camp
ing close by as a search and rescue
training exercise that Stony was co
ordinating, came over to the camp
fire to talk to the scouts. Cavalli and
the other S AR team members showed
the Warm Springs boys their per
sonal survival kits, and talked about
survival in the outdoors. Each piece
of the SAR member's survival kit
was passed around, and there was
demonstrations of various Tire start
ers, a "metal match" and a "chem
siick" signaling device. One of the
weekly activities in the remaining
November and part of December
troop meetings will be the making of
a survival kit for each scout. After
the SAR Team left the campfire, story
telling and cooking aluminum foil
baked apples was the last activity of
the evening. Some of the best stories
from the boys came from J.R.
Tailfcathers, and Scoutmaster Rick

a buffalo woman. By 10:00 p.m. all

cause the previous scout meetings
were about camping in cold weather.
The campers know that to be safe and
comfortable during winter camping,
or any other winter activity, you must
remember two words: warm and dry .
The best way to stay warm in the cold
is to dress in layers of clothing T
shirt closest to you, a long sleeve
sh'rt on next, then a sweatshirt, then
your coat as your body heats up
when working, cutting wood, or hik
ing you can take off the outer layers
to maintain body heat and avoid ex
cessive perspiration. Your outer
clothes are put back on when you
quit your outdoor work and your
body "cools down" and rests. The
Scouts were also told that the best
clothing material for winter camping
is woolsince wool traps air spaces
for insulation, causing the body to
generate heat, better than any other
natural clothing material.
Good warm meals are also impor
tant for wintercamping, and the troop
had grilled cheese sandwiches and
tomato soup for Saturday lunch,
spaghetti, steamed cauliflower, and
garlic bread, with peach cobbler &
