K Heppner Gazette Times, October 12, 1944 County Committee Provides Funds for Numerous Gifts By Mrs. Ralph Thompson As the October meeting of the Blue Mountain Camp and Hospital council was in Pomeroy, Wash, no one attended from Morrow county. Anyone going that far felt they should visit McCaw hospital in Walla Walla. Morrow county reported the fol lowing gifts for September: clock for McCaw library, Mrs. Earl Gil liam; 15 prizes from home econo mics club of Bhea creek grange; books and magazines, Mrs. Ralph Thompson; books, Mrs. Rob Run nion; hunting and fishing maga zines, donor unknown; westerns and comics, Harley Anderson, and two afghans given by the Eastern Star lodge of lone. Vt4 Jill it i tm Our committee ordered one doz en harmonicas for the boys leaving on the carriers from Pasco Naval Air station and we were fortunate in finding these in Portland. We sent a $60 check for a port able phonograph and $10 for cake and icecream for a party in Morrow county's ward. This ward has been changed to ward No. 49 and any one going to McCaw should visit this ward as the boys fel every one in Morrow county is a friend. Mrs. R. A. Thompson sent 21 prizes for the Bingo party. . Starting with October we sent the usual $25 check for Mrs. Reser's account which will helr purchase curtain material for the lounge in the recreation hall; $5 for tele phone call at the monthly birthday party; $10 for westerns and comics; $100 for three more new radios. Radios are badly needed at McCaw as the old ones have been in use over two years and they were old ones to start with. We have asked the other counties in the Council to match this gift of six new ra dios we have given since July. Anyone wishing to start a Christ mas gift on its way towards Mb Caw might give $35 for a new radio or $12.50 for a floor lamp. As these must be ordered through the niavy service it takes a month or more for them to arrive.
