Watch for
Woodshapes in

"Watch for unusual shapes ol
wiod as you hike throush the
woods a well as alone the
tifarh," u h was the advice civ
en by Birdine Tulli In her talk
to the lleppner Curdcn Club last
week. She diM-laycd a variety
of weathered wood and explain
el h"w they could ! used. She
mic nested that each piece be
studied can-fully to decide the
best line for sawing. Breaking
a piece off is better than saw
in to eliminate the fresh saw

fust .liriil.'d Thanksgiving in November, ll21 to thank
i;m lot tiii bountiful harvest.
riMlricoinj the rigors of the hostile wilderness this
small band of men and women carved out a future by the
.e,it of ihi'ir brows and a few crude tools. With the help
and assistant of some friendly Indians, new foods and fruits
found their way to the festive hoaid.
The successful fruit.s of their labors were a tribute to their
productivity and they, In turn, shared what they had pro
duced with their Indian neighbors.
It is H.ls same driving force which lias motivated this
country in the years since the first Thanksgiving. It has
enabled us to Itccome the most prosperous and the most gen
erous nation In the world. Through increased productivity
we can continue to prosjicr and to share our bountiful harvest
with those less fortunate.
It Docs Moke Sense and Cents
HMi'C is doing something that other Community Colleges
have tried and liked. Two courses tire being conducted this
-ar on the BMCC campus in Machine Shop and Electricity
clictionus for .students of Pendleton and Pilot Rock.
For a number of years educational groups have urged the
College to do Just this. Pilot Rock has one student in the
Mailune Shop course and two in the Electricity-electronics.
They attend classes Monday, Wednesday and Friday after
noons. So far their superintendent and school board are very
well pleased. The boys are pleased and are getting high
school credit. If they attend BMCC after graduation and con
tinue on in the program, they will receive college credit for
the courses they took while in high school.
It just makes sense for a boy who may be bored with
Senior English and in danger of dropping out of school but
who loves his car to be able to take auto mechanics.
Vocational type machinery is most expensive and school
districts can't afford to equip such departments.
With the BMCC district with its distance's, another idea
kiiked around for several years is now being contemplated.
That of taking career education courses to high schools of
Umatilla and Morrow Counties. This probably in the form
of specially outfitted busses has great potential to provide
Individualized instruction.
We need more servicemen. Just name the field!

at the Columbia Basin Electric

conclude that it pays to live
right.
One of the bishops speaking

this one: "It wasn't the apple
that caused the trouble. It was
the 'pair' on the ground."

to determine the sawing

to place it along side a table
and view it from the table side
to determine which slant would
show the piece off to the best
advantage .Placing it In water
was another way to determine
the mst advantapi'ous place to

Dr. Paul Knowles speak on ven

are more cases in Morrow Coun-
than I would care to admit
and some of them down to the

up two more last Saturday".
The slides show the effects
of the diseases if untreated. If
the person is a suspect, any sore
or tenderness should be treat
ed. Such diseases lead to rash
es that can become deep scars,
blindness and even sterility
and emotional disturbances.
He urged anyone who had
any possibilities of having con
traded a venereal disease to
get Immediate treatment.
