Great Frustration Killer
A skill whether a natural one or a learned one is Joy to
behold There's great admiration for a person who can
find a stud in a wall to find the place to ban? a picture,
to replace a asher in a leaky faucet, to replace a plug-in
for a floor lamp, find the simple reason h an ap
pliance -just stopped", repair a leak in the garden hose,
sharpen a shovel and on and on and on.
In every high school a "Home Maintenence" course should
be taught and required for graduation: Everyone, boy or girl,
whether they marry or not ill have some kind of an
abode that will require attention. For the girl ho marries
a boy with five thumbs she'll have the knowledge that will
not only save a pretty penny In cents but also time in not
waiting for a repairman or her husband.
With the knowledge such a course would provide, you d
never get that frustrated feeling, "everything's happen
ing at once" 1 need the electrician, the plumber, the car
penter, the cement man etc. etc. Things wouldn't fall to
pieces if thev are properly maintained.
Instruction in home maintenance should be designed to
teach how to properly maintain or repair furniture, home
appliances and conveniences as well as the dwelling and
surrounding area, stress safety in and around the home as
well as in the use and care of tools. In addition each stu
dent should have an awareness of fire and safety hazards
in his own home.
Students would learn the correct names for tools, how
to use them correctly and how to properly maintain them.
Such skills as scissor sharpening, replacing handles and
miking adjustments should be learned. The use and ap
plication of all kinds of fasteners including nails, screws,
clue etc. should be practiced.
Another series of lessons should be on repair and re
finishing of furniture. Chairs should be completely dis
mantled, cleaned, old varnish or paint removed, redowel
ed and glued and finally refinished to be as sound and at
tractive as am new chair.
Other skills should include repair and maintenance of
electrical appliances, windows, garden hoses, side walks
and plumbing. Also, worn toggle switches and light fix
tures replaced.
The repair and maintenance of the dwelling including re
roofing, repairing foundations and painting would be included.
Even if they made a pile of money and did hire all of
these odd chores done, it would make them more appre
ciative aod thoughful of the serviceman who did come to
do the job.

Morrow County Chamber of
Commerce
Heppner, Oregon
Dear Ed:
Kinzua Corporation appre
ciates your views and the ex
pressions of the Chamber on
forest management, including
too many roads, and the need
for some areas to be left
in their natural state. We
assure you of our cooperation
and do not believe any fur
ther action by the Chamber
is necessary to meet your
:oncerns. Let's move for
ward together in meeting new
challenges. Currently, our
Heppner employees are very
concerned about the housing
shortage. Both long term
planning and some short term
interim action is urgently
needed. New housing is the
real answer but our current
problem can best be met by
a rental trailer court. Your
assistance in such a develop
ment would be greatly appre
ciated. During environmental week
at Heppner HighSchool, three
of our foresters presented
classroom '.ectures on the
new Oregon Forest Practice
Act. effective July 1, 1972
and took students on field
trips to our Heppner mill.
The students were very in
terested in the half million
dollar expenditure by Kinzua
Corporation on environmen
tal controls. Elimination of
the wigwam burner, install
ation of recovery machines
md bins for waste woods,
added cooling towers for re
cycling coolant waters, elim

ination of the log pond by
building a closed water sys
tem whereby water from our
own well will be used and
recollected for pumping to
the three new settling ponds
across the highway, all
caused considerable com
ment. Students asked why
we would voluntarily give up
the use of the log pond if
it was helpful in cleaning
and thawing logs and told
we expected suffer environ
mental controls in the fut
ure and decided to meet the
problem now.
We compliment the Heppner
merchants on the new look
downtown by the trees on the
sidewalks. We are commen
cing to plant pine trees along
our highway right of way and
and will reseed the distur
bed hilly pond areas to grass
as soon as possible. We
are told Canadian Honkers
thrive on settling ponds such
as ours and trust we can
add this form of wildlife to
our area.

April 1 hearing.)
Tf?EES FOREVER-MCLTI-PLE
USE overused words
that have led us to believe
that everything is fine with
the lumlier industry and the
management of our public
forest lands.
Closer examination reveals
that we may not have trees
forever, and multiple use
seems to start with the log
ging and then decide what
other -use the forest might
be put to. Of course we
end up with the roads, and
this is my main gripe and
has been for some time.
In the Heppner Ranger Dis
trict of the t'matilla National
Forest, there are 196,000
acres, and according to a
forest service study of 1969,
there were 388 miles of im
proved roads in the district
The report also stated that
by 1983 this figure would bt
1000 miles of improved roads.
These are rock-base gravel
roads with 50 to 100 foot
rightaways
This does not include an
other 600 miles of roads in
the area that are used by
the loggers, but travelled by
the woodsman, the hunter, the
stockman, and anyone else
that cares to use them.
Many of the roads proposed
to be finished by 1983 are
under construction and most
of the rest have been sur
veyed Many of these roads
appear to serve no purpose
and the cost must have been
a financial burden to the log
ger and resulted in consid
erably less turn-over of tax
offset money . One thousand
miles of road on a 60 foot
rightaway represents over
7000 acres taken out of pro
duction entirely, and creates
erosion and drainage pro
blems, not to mention the ad
ditional harrassment of wild
life.
It would appear that if we
can afford this extravagant
use of land for roads, we
can afford a wilderness area.
However, I am not opposed
to the logging of the Kelly
prairie or Texas Butte area.
do not want it logged in
the manner some adjacent
areas were recently logged,
and I see no reason for con
structing the roads proposed
for these areas.
Yours sincerely

Portland, Or
April 17, 1972
Dear M. A Mrs. Heard
A committee of six people
now living in the Portland
area and all former students
at Heppner High School met
recently to plan a picnic for
July 30th at Roslyn Park near
Sandv. Oreeon. The purpose
of the picnic is to re-establish
contact with friends and
renew old acquaintances for
graduates and former stu
dents and their families of
Heppner, Lexington and lone
High Schools.
We feel that the friend
ships made during those ear
lier years are lasting and sin
cere and should be relived
when the opportunity presents
itself.
To enable us to precede
further with this plan, we
ask that anyone in ttie Port
land area, Morrow County
area or any area who would
be interested inattending tliis
type of function send their
name and address to Karen
(Valentine) Smith Ft. 3, Box
982, Gresham, Or or Judy
(Spaulding) Laughlin, Hep
pner. They will then re
ceive further notice on the ac
tivity. As many of the former
residents of the county read
your paper, we are using this
means to urge them to res
pond. It will be a mem
orable and nostalgic oc
cassion. Sincerely,
