Spilyay Tymoo, Wsrm Springs, Oregon December 22, 2005 P3ge"5 More Letters to the Editor My friend Ruth From the time we met you became my friend, sharing our life's stories from beginning to end. Working together was an added treat, sharing our ups and downs, but sharingjesus was our daily repeat. The love our your family was one of your greatest joys, hav ing one beautiful daughter and three handsome boys. Growing older, your husband you buried, a single mother, the burdens you carried. Your brothers and sisters helped when they could, but it was Jesus that showed you your humor would help you, that was very good. The illness you fought a brave and valiant fight, but God said, "Come home my daugh ter," late one night. Your grandchildren will miss your beautiful smile, but had to realize only you can walk that last mile. You went home my friend, to your mansion above, to join with your husband and all you love. We, the ones left down here, will miss you each day, we un derstood when the Lord said you could no longer stay. So my friend, thank you for your friendship and love. Send from me to you in heaven above. Will miss you. Tina Aguilar. For the troops There are two ways to live your life. One is as though noth ing is a miracle, the other is as though everything is a miracle. Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citi zens can change the world. In deed, it's the only thing that ever has. You may only be one per son to the world, but you may also be the world to one person. After a month of no contribu tion for our troops we changed our fund raising to purchase items to send our Native sons. We called Charlotte. We would help her the supplies. Our grandchildren and great grand children will understand diat dicy won't get much from grandma. Our love is so deep for you and we hope you understand how important freedom is, for our military families give up a lot in order to serve for all of us. More wishes...

God Bless you and yours. Tina Aguilar. We are proud of our Native troops that are serving for our Native people and every nation ality that lives in freedom here in America. Many centuries ago we were told never to lift arms again, but many of our Native veterans continue to serve and enlist to help preserve our freedom that we all have an enjoy. We are proud that their paths are directed to the decision of serving their country. They will truly be blessed no matter what people say. You are going good for your families who are waiting for your safe return. Our prayers are with you daily. Our granddaughter Lorie Piycstewa gave her life in order for us to continue living in free dom. All the thousands that gave their lives left us a legacy to continue. They will always be remem bered. I wish many of our young Natives would follow the ex ample of our Native troops, by being good examples for their communities and country. May you all have a Merry Christmas and prosperous New Year.

It's the flu and cold season! The Warm Springs Pharmacy can help you during the cold and flu season. We have a number of non-prescription medications behind the counter that we can hand out to you. We don't have "cold packs," but we can give you the right medication to help with your symptoms. These are some of the symp toms we have medications for: Cough, runny nose, stuffy nosecongestion, aches, and fe ver. Pseudoephedrine With the current news spot light on pseudoephedrine and methamphetamine, there have been many questions asked about how Warm Springs Phar macy handles this medication. We would like you to know that the Warm Springs Phar macy will continue to keep this medication "behind the phar macy counter" and limit the amount given, since it takes large quantities of pseudoephedrine to produce methamphetamine. We have not seen excessive use of pseudoephedrine at the phar macy. If you feel like you have a cold, consider home remedies. Drinking plenty of fluids, eat ing a healthy diet, getting plenty of rest, and using a humidifier can help with your cold symp toms. If your symptoms last longer than seven days or be come severe, consider seeing your doctor. If you need cold medicine from the pharmacy, you can check in with the receptionist at the clinic and then come direcdy to the pharmacy. Our pharmacist will be happy to provide you with the medi cations you need to help with your symptoms. fig 915 SocaflEa E-fcvy 97, ScaSte EaaaQrac, We are proud that 90 of all our tires are produced in the U.S. of A. .1 1 Monday-Friday: 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Saturday: 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. ZrOchiori'y SerafiFy SeafperESDsrEiefi 475-3637 1 Complete "Warm and Serve" Turkey Dinner ii if) feS I H t40 lncludes:10-12,b Turkey The Friendliest S1 pSd.J L3 iJ TSmSU Harry's Mashed Potatoes otore 1,1 T ' ' " Harry's Turkey gravy in Town 561 SM- Street, Modro C Harrys 0ld fashloned stuffing LOCallV OWned S$S?
