Mail-li-Day Set For TB Christmas Seal Campaign Countdown climax comes in the local Christmas Seal Cam paign as it swings into "Mail It Day". That's the day tradit ionally set aside for all who need to catch up with the mail and respond to their Christmas i Seal appeal the day for put ting good intentions into action ' and mailing in a Christmas Seal Contribution. ! "Mail-It-Day" has become a regular feature of the Morrow , County Council of the Oregon , Tuberculosis and Health Asso ciation's annual Christmas Seal Campaign. "It's a day dedicat- I ed to remembering the basic ' purpose of Christmas Seals, "re called Mrs. Sylvia McDaniel, President of the Morrow Coun ty Council. "That, and the fact that the TB Association's pro gram of work can only be suc cessful to the degree that peo ple remember their Christmas Seal letters and do what's nec essary to enable us to carry on." "The Christmas Seal Cam paign, despite its importance, has to fact a built-in obstacle." Mrs. McDaniel reported. 'This is practically everybody's bus- jest season of the year the time when an almost superhu man effort sometimes seems needed just to snatch a min ute to read a message, write out a check, and get it into the mail. That's why "Mail-It-Day" fills a genuine need. It's also a string-around-the-finger day to remind those whose Christmas seal letters didn't reach them for any reason, to contact Syl via McDaniel at Heppner. tele phone 676-9444, so that the er ror can be corrected.

Ph. 567-6651 Hermiston, Oregon On Hermlston-McNary Highway 21 --T.vs&."r Hi'rorf nr' lllnoce Handicaps Program But Show Goes On Illness of Mrs. Ola Mae Giwhens, director of the Heppncr trade school's Christ mas program, brought tempo rary consternation to the pu pils and staff nt the school during the week. The program, "Christmas Windows," was set for staging Tuesday night, and the talents of Mrs. Groshens are vital in the production of those programs. But the entire school staff and the pupils of the first five grades arose to the oc casion, and the show went on as scheduled. It plavod to a anv packed house. Principal Al Martin said Tuesday evening, Just an hour or so before curtain time. ' We've been working all day rehearsing and re doing the program. We have a talented staff and a marvelous group to work with. We're going ahead with it. and we're go ing to have fun doing it." While Mrs. Groshcns re mained at home with a rath er severe case of influenza. "Christmas Windows." which she comeived and wrote, went on stage as scheduled. A tig Mother Goose book was featured in the produc tion, and costumed charac ters came out of it while choruses sang accompanying music. Windows in the production were takeoffs on local busi nesses, such as "Murrays Cur ries Book Nook." "Crate's Fur niture Store" and "Farra Shoe Roparrj." All teachers in the school had a share in the pro duction, children of Miss Ter ry Linceeum's art classes worked on the art and scen oty production. Costumed characters includ ed a wide range from mice to Santa Cluas. The trouper spirit made a success of "Christmas Win dows," but one little girl said after the program. "It sure was hard without Mrs. Grosh ens there." Poem is Published Of Former Student A poem, written by Miss Gail Sila. a student at Heppner High school last year, has been published in a national Chris tian Church youth magazine. "Straight", according to infor mation from Rev. Al Boschee. local pastor. The religious, thought-provoking poem. "Delinquency," is fea tured, appropriately presenting the answer to youth's problem of "searching for understand ing." She wrote it in her Eng lish class here last year. The national magazine is read bv Christian youth over the United States, and the local church uses it as study mater ial in Sunday School classes. Gail is now attending Reeds port High school. Her mother, Mrs. Opal Silva, taught last year in the lone grade school, and the two made their home in Heppner. Gail was active in Christian Youth Fellow s h ip work here last year.
