At their monthly meeting, the Deconessess of the lone Church of Christ decided that they should encourage their people to be concerned for the needy people beyond this community. Beside going to Pendleton and helping on the wards at EOSH there are many ways people can share right in their own homes. The hospital constantly needs bibs and pajama tops. These can be made or material donated to the Deconesses who will be sewing some of these later in the year. Also they do baking at the Hospital and need cake mixes. This month the Deconesses are asking families to donate cake mixes which they will take to the hospital. These can be brought to the church kitchen prior to October 22 and they will be delivered to Pendleton.

The lone Swimming Poo! has again passed the Oregon State Board of Health Inspec tion The only suggestion was to immediately acquire a new gas mask Tins matter has been laKen care of Two other matters came up after the state inspector's visit One is the smoothness of tne concrete in the pool area immediately outside the doors of tne dressing room. Tem porary Measures were taken and were successful in pre venting further accidents Non-slip strips were laid down in the worst sjxus The only problem of using this next year is that ttie strips are against the state law because they collect dirt and other foreign particles. They will not stick properly if removed often The other problem was the wading pool's drain be came plugged. This happened the last w eek of the season and no action has been taken to remedy this I have tried to prepare some statistics to show how the pool has been operating in the summer of 1972 A total of 93 season tickets was sold. Fifty one of these were sold to elementary students, twenty nine to high school students, two to adults, nine family tickets, and two were adjusted tickets. The money received from these came to a total of $593.50. The average daily attend ance which is counted from the combination of both ses sions of the day was 101. The highest count was on the opening da;, when lo were present The poorest day there were only :w m attendance The jxxirest week w as tne last week of the season with an average of .59 attending per dav to give you an idea of the amount of chemicals used in a season I have prepared the approximate total tor this last season For the regular season about 8 tanks of chlorine, approximately 1.2ii lbs., 5C lbs of soda ash. and 3n lbs of alum or sulfate of alumina were used There is still sufficient amount of soda ash and sulfate of alumina avail able for another season Chlorine is always ordered about a week before a new season opens Last the report of the success of our Red Cross swimming program. A total of seven sessions were run with each session lasting two weeks Ninety-three swim mers took part in the lessons. Out of 27 beginners, 17 passed: out of 19 advanced beginners 12 passed, nut of 23 intermediate 14 passed: 11 passed junior lifesavmg and 9 passed the senior lilesaving course. If there are any questions concerning this report I will be glad to answer them. Sincerely. Maureen McEllieott. Mgr. 1972 project area, such as clothing, and meet on a regular basis Adults who cannnl commit themselves lo regular meeting times, can still serve as resource (xtiple to existing 4 H clubs, the agent says The "visiting" exiKTt can make valuable contribution to the total learning experience of the 4 II member The 4 H program also offers leadership roles to young people. Don points out The Teen Leader Program, for high school age youth, allows the young man or woman lo actually lead a club of younger 4 H members The Junior Leader pro gram. oM"n to junior and senior high school students, finds the 4-H member assist ing the adult leader in conducting the club's activi ties The 4-H leader actually serves as a teacher, but he's not completely on his own. The county extension staff are available to help and regular training sessions are held The 4-H leaders, through the Morrow County 4-H Leader's Associations, assist with the overall conduct of the 4-H program. The leaders associa tion offers 4-H volunteers a chance to help determine the local program and to make sure it is relevant to the needs and interests of the county. Additional information a bout leadership opportunities in the 4-H program is avail able at the Morrow County extension officein Heppner t fi7B-9W2 . SPECIAL Oregon's nearly- 43,1)00 4-H members are living evidence that "4-H is for everyone no matter where they live," points out Don Stangel, Mor row County Extension Agent Started over 50 years ago as an action-oriented, education program primarily for rura youth. 4-H today draws its membership from major cities, suburbs and small towns as well as from farms. Oregon pioneered the idea that 4-H should be open to boys and girls from 9 to 19. explains H Joe Myers, assistant direc tor for 4-H and youth. Oregon State Lniversitv Extension Service. Although the vast majority of Oregon's 4-H members tielong to clubs of six to 12 members led by a volunteer udult leader, a large number also participates as individual members in areas where clubs are not available Some are active in 4-H 12 months a year Others participate in "short term" projects, in which the work may lie completed in a shorter eriod of time, such as summer vacation, Don notes Over 50 different subjects are available to young people through the 4-H program ranging from horses to bicy cles and clothing to leather craft There is one to fit the interests and needs of almost every young person Additional information a bout 4-H in Morrow County may be obtained from the county extension office in Heppner lT2 I1T3 officer wcr in ktallrd bv Ruth Chapter No J2 I the Maiton c Tim,-le Sun day Afternoon, September 24 Installed in Ihe office of Wurlbv Matron wa Ittihy B kel, and Worthy Patr on.
