6 HEPPNER GAZETTE Chats With Your Home Agent Club Seeks Closer Contact Between Members, Parents By ESTHER KIRMIS A very correct Emily Post type of invitation came in the mail the other week from Marlene Magill, secretary of our newest 4-H club, Beas Busy Buddies, of Cecil. The club is planning a local supper at the Henry Krebs home on the evening of April 18 to inform their parents and friends about the basics of 4-H and what they are doing in knit ting, lcatherworking, and cloth ing. Mrs. Beulah Hynd, their leader, is taking the right approach in informing the parents early of 4-H duties. Statistics show that if the parents are asked to do certain things like providing ma terial for a 4-H project, trans portation to a county or state event, etc., they will come through with flying colors 90 of the time. Leaders, don't be afraid to ask. Grange Sewing Contest Mrs. Delpha Jones of the Lex ington Grange had Mrs. Louis Carlson and Mrs. Roland Berg strom, lone, and yours truly out on April 11 to judge ten gar ments that were entered in the State Grange Sewing contest. It always does our heart good to see that sewing has not be come a lost art, and is ever popular in this day and age. Pine City. Irrigon Units Visited April is a wonderful month to visit the Extension Units, your agent has found. Spring and sun shine does strange things to someone. This past week we vis ited Pine City unit (Mrs. Leo Ashbock, hostess) and Irrigon unit (Mrs. Sylvia Morgan, Mrs. Minnie Hoadley, Mrs. Grace Hoadley, Mrs. Grace Shaun, and Mrs. Don Acock, hostesses) with the lesson, "Don't Be In The Dark About Lighting." The wo men are especially interested in the new "Celeste" bulb that we brought along. (A bulb that doesn't need a shade and can be screwed directly into the light socket.) Pamphlets are available in the office. Re-Direct Bathroom Traffic While at the Pine City meet ing, Mrs. Willard French, Echo, was complaining about the bath room rush in her home with four teen-agers wanting to use tt at once. Maybe she could use some of these Ideas: In remodeling a bedroom or adding an extra one, why not include a lavatory in the new setting? Oregon State University reports this suggestion has come up frequently in extension meet ings. Any woman whose family numbers more than two doesn't need a calculator to add up the advantages of this arrangement. Even in two-bathroom homes, there is invariably a traffic jam at the bathroom door both morn ing and evening while the "oc cupant" is often involved with a wash-up which could just as easily be accomplished at a bedroom wash basin. It is easy to cut down on "overtime" in the bathroom it self by providing this handy fa cility, along with good lighting to make it. effective. Then father or junior or grandfather can shave right in his own room. Or the girls can shampoo, experi ment with make up and primp to their heart's content. And everyone can be allocated enough time for bathing or showering without having to skimp on soaking time or soap suds. Interest Grows in Laundry Clinic We've been really advertising the Morrow county laundry clinic, "Suds and Hi Fashion" as we travel to the Extension Unit meetings and any other meeting we attend. Remember the date April 23 at the Riverside High school gym In Boardman, at 1:30 p.m. Watch for posters on it at your grocery or appliance store. With this lovely spring weather it would be just a nice drive up to Boardman to see how it's growing and changing. We happened to pick up this washday hint from Bern Ice Strawn, OSU Home Management Specialist (.she will be at the laundry clinic), about helping bath towels age gracefully. Do your bath towels with closely woven border stripes have a ruffled edge? You can prevent this by removing towels from the dryer while slightly damp. Pull stripes vigorously cross-wise. Once ruffling has happened you can't correct it, Saddle Club Meets The Saddle-lttes 4 H club was called to order by the president Dick Struckmeier. We answered to roll call by naming the parts of the bridle and saddle. We de cided not to have a drill team because we do not have enough riders. The 4-H ride has been changed to the first week-end in June at Johnson Creek. Our next meeting will be at the rodeo grounds and we will practice our horses. Sandra Matheny, rpeorter -TIMES, Thursday, April 16, 1964 The new high fashion towels with sculptured patterns will stay new looking and at their best with machine drying. The tumbling action serves as a beauty treatment to accentuate the pattern and fluff up sheared textures. CowBelles Choosing "Father of the Year" We met with the CowBelles on April 10 to see the progress of the "Father of the Year" con test sponsored by this group every year. Mrs. Don Robinson, chairman, reported that there were seven applications In from youth groups in the county. Tentative plans are to honor the winner with a "Make it Your self Barbecue" on Sunday even ing, June 7, on the fair grounds lawn. This way the husbands of the CowBelles could also attend. Father Spencer To Attend Meet Father C. Bruce Spencer of All Saints' Episcopal church will be one of 60 Oregon ministers to attend the seventh annual min isterial institute April 27-30 at Corbett. The four-day conference is held each spring to help min isters in counseling the emotion ally and mentally disturbed and members of their families. It is conducted by the Mental Health Association of Oregon, the Mental Health Division and the Oregon Council of Churches. Guest speaker will be the Rev erend Lyn Elder of Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary, Mill Valley, Calif.

The ASCS and Soil Conservation District heads decided that they would meet several times during the year to further consider the need for changing, eliminating, or revising present practices. Much thought is going into this as a result of possible reductions of ASC funds and revisions on practices to get the most con servation on the land through federal cost-sharing with money available. At the regular Heppner Soil and Water Conservation District meeting plans were made for sponsoring the annual school conservation tour which has been scheduled for May 7. Fifth grade boys and girls from the lone and Heppner schools will par ticipate in seeing outstanding conservation practices in several communities. Vernon Munkers, Lexington, heads up this tour this year. Vernon Is a new sup ervisor and is anxious to par ticipate in the conservation pro gram. Another new supervisor, Roger Palmer, was appointed to rep resent the district on the Selec tion Committee which will tour farms in late April to select the 1964 County Conservation Man of the Year. The March progress report given by conservationist Ralph Richards, included the the Horse shoe Hereford Ranch as a new cooperator; 300 acres field strip cropping laid out at the Garland Swanson ranch; 32 acres of con tour strip cropping for Marion Palmer; 15,500 feet of diversion ditches for C. N. Jones and Sons and Rudy Bergstrom; 85.6 acres of land leveling for four differ ent farmers as well as 12 eros ion dams and farm ponds on the L. H.
