iful fall weather, the warm

the fuss and flurry of a national

most enoyable gatherings I have
attended.
Mrs John Bergstrom, Mrs Walt
er Wright, and Mrs Raymond
Drake of 'Heppner rode down

This is to be an all day meeting.
We thank the school for the

grange. We can use all 6
dozen of them. Again we say
thank you.
The next meeting will be Sat
urday, Nov 21 and Is to be elec
tion of officers. All try to be pres
ent. Mary Lundell, reporter
Mrs E M Baker, and Mrs Omar
Rietmann, lone; Mrs Warren Mc
Coy and Mrs Paul Slaughter, Irri
gon; and Mrs Dewey West and
Mrs Ronald Black, Boardman.
Some of them, who had come
down earlier, reported that Sun
day's activities had included an
entertainment in the Rose Bowl
room of the Multnomah hotel
where a group of Yamhill county
homemakers sang, and 18 dele
gates from Hawaii had perform
ed. That evening, Dr Paul Wright,
pastor of the First Presbyterian
church, Portland spoke at a spec
ial vesper service in the civic
auditorium.
The first business meeting of
the convention got underway on
Monday morning at the civic
auditorium with a colorful pro
cessional and Mrs Verne, NHDC
president, of Wellsville, Kansas,
gave her message. The afternoon
was highlighted by a tour of the
Columbia river gorge, Bonneville
dam and a stop at Hood River
the home of Mrs Armas Jakku,
president of Oregon Home Eco
nomics Extension Council for
chilled apple cider.
When we came upon the scene
on Tuesday the women were div
iding into special work session
luncheons built around projects
that Morrow county homemakers
use in local unit programs. These
included sessions in citizenship,
international relations, safety,
civic defense, and publicity.
I was especially pleased to see
a delegation of 65 women from
my home state, North Dakota.
In fact, five women were from
my home town. Needless to say,
we chatted like mad. They were
quite impressed with their trip
which they had made via Great
Northern to Seattle and then
down to Portland. Miss Emily
Freeman, North Dakota state
HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIMES, Thursday. October 22. 1959
home economics leader, told me
that only 29 women were return
ing with her after the convention
the rest were going to visit
relatives and friends and stay
awhile!
The visiting homemakers col
lected souveniers like typical
tourists. Driftwood from Curry
county; pine cones, Oregon grape
and polished rocks from central
Oregon counties, holly from the
Willamette Valley; nuts from
Yamhill county and wheat from
Morrow and Umatilla counties.
We were all disappointed that
Oregon's Governor Hatfield who
was scheduled to speak on Tues
day evening, could not appear
due to an automobile accident
on the previous Sunday. He had
an able substitute take his place.
Other speakers of note included
Representative Edith Green, Con
gresswoman of Oregon; Miss
Eunice Heywood, director of
home economics programs,
Washington D C; F L Ballard,
associate director of the Oregon
extension service; and Miss Eva
Goble, state home economics
leaders, Indiana.
All our Morrow county women
acted as "Hostess" during some
part of the convention. Murle
Scales, state extension agent,
announced at the close of the
convention that over 1000 Ore
gon women had assisted in
some way or other in making
this national gathering a great
success.
The convention closed on Wed
nesday evening with a musical
program presented by "The Bo
hemians", a group of 13 Port
land businessmen, who enter
tained the crowd with favorite
folk songs, sacred songs, and
numerous renditions. This group
is truly outstanding.
We are making plans to hold
a luncheon at Stefanl's restaur
ant, lone, on November 18, so
that the Morrow county dele
gation can report on this con
ference to all interested women
in the county. Why not plan
to attend.
