Heppner 's
09th Year
Peterson 's
Grand Opening
Friday &
Saturday
Randall and Marlene Peter
son cordially invite everyone to
help them celebrate completion
of their remodeling of Peter
son's Jewelers here at their big
Grand Opening on Friday and
Saturday.
There's no obligation to
register for some valuuble free
prizes : 1st, a diamond necklace.
2nd. a Caravelle watch. 3rd, a
wall clock. And there will be
free ballpoint pens for every
one. And what's more - coffee and
homemade cookies served all
day. And look at this:
champagne punch served from
2 to 4 p.m.
The store is a wonderful
addition to Morrow County's
fine business establishments.
The remodeling is the culmina
tion of lots of hard work, a
pretty difficult thing to be doing
while the business was operat
ing as usual. Everyone joins in
saying "Well done" to Randall
and Marlene.
Peterson's Jewelers has a
rich history as is illustrated in
this story from the Heppner
Gazette edition of Mar. 8, 1928:
Disposes of Business Here
' E.H.Buhn, who has been
engaged in the jewelry business
at Heppner during the past two
years, has disposed of his
business to J.O.Peterson of
Pomeroy, Wash., who took
possession on Monday. Mr.
Peterson comes to Heppner well
recommended as a watchmaker
and repair man, having been in
the employ of a jewelry firm in
Pomeroy for the past three
years or so. Mr. Buhn reluc
tantly leaves Heppner, where
he and Mrs. Buhn have made
numerous friends during their
sojourn of two years, but he was
enabled to better his business
relationship by taking the
management of the large
jewelry establishment of his
brother at Boise, Idaho, in
which he purchased an interest,
hence the change at this time.
Mr. and Mrs. Buhn and their
son Edward will leave the
coming week for Boise, where
the best wishes of their Heppner
friends go with them.
Shortly after this, Mr. Peter
son started a regular advertis
ing program that has been
continued unbroken. Forty-two
years after buying this busi
ness, his son, Randall, adver
tises each week in the Heppner
Gazette-Times.

JAYCEES NEED
The Morrow County Jaycees
are in trouble! inis has otten
been heard in the last few
months but now it is more
important than ever. The crit
ical area is membership, or
rather the lack of it. In the past
the JC's have sponsored many
community projects and activ
ities that have benefited the
people of Morrow County such
as manning the volunteer fire
department and the erection of
street signs. But whatever the
project or cause, the main goal
has been to help the community.
Now we need a small measure
of help from the community in
return. If you are a young man
between the ages of 21 and 35,
and desire to live within the
community instead of off the
community, please call Bill
Lande, Secretary, at 676-9752.
You will be assured that your

Bargains galore
lleppner's Christmas Opening is, as you know, an annual event
here that arrives right after Thanksgiving. This is the weekend the
big event will arrive and with it lots of bargains and lots of goodies
for everyone.
Santa Claus will come roaring into town Saturday afternoon at 2
p.m. on a fire truck with candy for the kiddies. He's coming to town
early again to take a look at Morrow County which he hasn't seen
since last year.
Besides that, he wants to see everything the Heppner merchants
are giving away as free prizes this year. Many of the prizes will be
given away in various guessing games. The prizes are valuable and
worth your time to win. In any event, it's fun to look around and
meet your friends.
