Went for a cruise onto the for- IT 0
est one day and passed through
areas where I once worked dur
ing the days of the Loggers. As I
was driving along I met a logging
truck and as it went by I noticed it
belonged to Johnny Guerin Log
ging Co. The name took my
thoughts back several years when
I worked with Johnny and his
father in the woods.
Yep! I can still remember the
crew, a father his son and a "Ka
Shum Guy." In them days log
gers used to get kinda Ka-Chum,
especially on Saturday nights af
ter a long week in the woods.
Some guys would even say, "It's
Friday, let's take it easy so we can
really Chos-Wi-sha, tonight." My
thoughts went back to the days of the logging camp known as "Camp"
A". And one time in the Olden days it was known as "Old Mill." Today
when you pass by the Old Mill Camp, or Camp "A", it's like a ghost
town, a few broken down cabins where once flourished a big logging
camp and full of life.
Yep! The trees used to be pretty huge in them days and the crews
were large. Big cats hauling loads of logs that would almost equal a
half a days Skidding today. The loads were so big that every now and
than the roll-up cat would have to get behind the load of logs and push
them along to the landing. It really used to be noisy with the big cats
a roaring away going down the skid trails with saplings snapping and
popping as they made their way up the hill for another load of logs. The
big iron hooks clanging away behind the skidder, power saws buzzing
all around, logging trucks backing under the loader and men yelling
at one another.
Yep! Today when you drive out into the woods, stop get out of the
car, it's all quiet. A person can look up those steep hill sides and see
the remains of those old skid trails and the old landing sites where
there used to be wall of logs decked on each side of the road. Today
when you go into the woods you see a little deck here and there and
they have a name I think starts with a "P", anyway you see a few piles
here and there.
Today the Knot Bumpers, Choker Setters, who were the Raw
Boned Loggers have made their way into the pages of the History
books and are a thing of the past, and its pathetic to see all the large
trees also fading away in them "THAR HILLS."
Jefferson County Fair in Madras
It was Jefferson County Fair time on July 26-29, 1995, with a Rodeo,,
Carnival, Parade and plenty of entertainment that took the spot light this
past weekend.
At the fair on display were many projects shown by the young and old
as all kinds of arts and crafts along with livestock were on hand in the
exhibit buildings. The big 4-HFFA animal sale on Saturday evening as the
youngsters displayed their livestock they raised during the summer. There
were some prime beef, sheep and Swine that went on sale at the auction.
To see some of those steers on sale one could just imagine those juicy stakes
cooked to ones delight.
Yep ! There was something for everyone and things to do at the fair. One
admission gave people to attend what ever was of interest to them. Some
took in the exhibits and entertainment on stage while others went to the
rodeo and the carnival rides. But no matter what anyone done there was
plenty to do. One of the highlights was the aroma of all the food being
prepared from all different races. The Italian, German, Spanish, and the
smell of hamburgers, hot dogs and fresh popped popcorn filled the air.
On Saturday morning at 10:00 a.m. there was the big street parade in
down town Madras where many floats went through along with various
vehicle and the people on horse back. Cowboys and Indians, well there
were just a few Indians in the parade. The Jefferson County Fair is the
second county fair in this area. Last week the Crook County Fair was held
in Prineville. The kick-off of all the county fairs in the state of Oregon. Next
week-end the Deschutes County will have their fair at the fair grounds in
Redmond. The Wasco County fair will fallow. Fairs will be happening
every weed-end from now until the State Fair which will be held in Salem,
Oregon.

Hello from Pastor Rick,
Prayer. . .
This is from our church, "Book of
Order." "Prayer is a conscious
opening of the self to God, who
initiates communion and
communication with us. Prayer is
receiving and responding, speaking
and listening, waiting and acting in
the presence of God. In Prayer we
respond to God in adoration, in
thanksgiving, in confession, in
supplication, in intercession and in
self dedication." (W-5.4001).
Wow, I bet you thought prayer

To the editor:
I have lived & raised my family
as a neighbor to the Warm Springs
Community since the early 50's
It was always with Warm Springs
that we celebrated each 4th of July.
Attending the parade, the picnic, the
afternoon relays, games, races & al
ways the fireworks.
This year the custom was resumed.
So I returned with my now adult
daughter & she brought her young
children.
A generation later and it proved
to still to be the same. Nothing had
changed.. .same friendly folks, fine
food, fun filled activities, glorious
fireworks.
How hard the committee worked.
What a great coordinator and MC
Wilson was.
Thank you for a chance to relive
precious memories. We all antici
pate July 4th in 96 in Warm Springs.

was just asking God for your
Christmas list. No, prayer is very
deep and powerful. Ask anyone with
a spiritual walk and they will tell you
the main tool of their success in living
life in prayer. Prayer is neat because
a few words is great prayer or a full
hour is great prayer. The key is in the
first line. "Conscious opening of the
self to God." You cannot talk to God
by just slipping notes under the door.
You have to open the door and let the
Lord inside for a good talk. That is
the tough part about praying; We try
to make it one-sided. Then we wonder

why things are not going as well as
we thought they should be. The
Creator requires a two-way
connection.
Just like you talking to a good
friend, it is at its best when you are
near that good friend, close enough
to see their eyes, and to know they
are listening to you. Prayer, let God
in. . .
Hey how is the gambling thing
going? On time or a bit behind?
See you in church. . .
