T.V Star Joins
Bookworm Club
"As The World Turns' per
sonality Nancy Hughes told
other members of the TV drama
cast that she was planning to
join a book club that meets
twice monthly. Mrs. Lucy
Peterson reported the an
nouncement to members of the
Heppner Bookworms, and Mrs.
Harold Erwin wrote to Nancy
Hughes (Helen Wagner) at CBS
in New York City extending an
honorary membership in the
club.
Mrs. Erwin received a hand
written note from Helen
Wagner which she shared with
the Bookworms at their second
November meeting at her
home.
Dear Mrs. Erwin:
Your letter about honorary
membership in your book club
is an amusing compliment
which I should be delighted to
accept. So far as it's having
merit, I don't see that it can
have much more than that at
this distance and with my
schedule... but perhaps just this
friendliness is merit enough.
Thank you.
The Bookworms are sending
Nancy Hughes a . Christmas
Greeting from her new club,
and will enclose the story from
the Heppner Gazette-Times,
several bookreviews from the
paper, and their meeting
schedule for the year along with
the Christmas card.

WSCS Meets,
Plans
At its meeting last night the
Methodist Women's Society of
Christian Service completed
plans for its month's activities.
The group will cooperate in
Christmas charity giving and
remembrances. The society
officers for the coming year will
be installed along with other
church officials at the morning
worship service on Dec. 10th.
Doris Cutting and Justine
Weatherford talked over the
events of the society's annual
Oregon-Idaho conference which
they attended in Portland this
fall. They played a tape
recording of parts of the
lectures given by the principal
speaker at the conference,
Thressa Hoover.
Hostesses for the evening
were Sylvia McDaniel and Elsie
Leathers who arranged a
Christmasy refreshment table.
At a party, there are two
kinds of people: those who want
to go home early, and those who
want to stay late. Trouble is,
they're usually married to each
other.
Teenagers and parents from a
five-county area will gather in
Pendleton December 9 to
launch a campaign against
venereal disease among Oregon
youth.
The students from area high
schools and junior high schools
have been invited to the
conference by the District No.
12 Committee of the Governor's
Commission on Youth.
"Gonorrhea has reached
epidemic proportions in Ore
gon," Governor McCall stated,
"and public attention must be
brought to bear on this health
problem."
More than 10,000 cases of
venereal disease were reported
in Oregon last year with
conservative estimates indicat
ing five additional unreported
cases for each one reported.
More than two-thirds of the
reported cases of venereal
disease occurred among per
sons less than age 25 years. The
IS - 19 year old group accounts
for the most rapidly rising rate
while the 19 25 year old group
accounts for the greatest num
ber of cases.
Students attending the con
ference will be given expert
information by a panel of state
health division officials and
local physicians and health
department staff. Each "school
team" will be asked to develop
a plan of action to implement in "
their own community bringing
information and awareness to
their friends.
Attendance at the conference
is by invitation only, with each
school in the five-county area
sending representatives.
The world headquarters of the
Seventh-day Adventist Church
reports that in spite of the
financial problems of many
church organizations Advent
ist s have Ut n able to steadily
increase the amount of their
world budget each year. The
Church makes large expendi
tures in disaster relief and other
community-directed services,
but less then seven percent of
the wor ld budget comes from
outside the church.

WORLD SERVICE APPEAL
Seventh-day Adventists are
now launching their 69th World
Service Appeal, announces
pastor Michael Brownfield.
Members of the Heppner
church will join in distributing
copies of a special issue of
These Times magazine, which
reports on the humanitarian
aspects of their worldwide
program, and at the same time
give people an opportunity to
contribute to the work. In
harmony with its philosophy of
viewing man as a spiritual,
physical, and social being, and
ministering to his needs in all
three areas, the members will
encourage Bible study by offer
ing a free Bible study guide,
also.
"This will not be an effort to
get people to join the Adventist
Church," the pastor emphasiz
ed, "but we want to help the
people of Heppner realize that
the Bible offers real answers to
the problems which we face in
this critical age."
The 2.1 million-member de
nomination operates the largest
foreign mission program of any
Protestant chuch, as well as the
largest worldwide Protestant
school system. They help edu
cate more than 388,000 students
in 4,425 schools. Some of these
are in areas where no public
schools are available.
Funds from this year's cam
paign will not only help main
tain the regular services pro
vided by the church's hospitals,
schools, camps for the under
priveleged children, and simi
lar projects, but they will help
purchase relief supplies for
large-scale disasters. Flood
relief, both in foreign countries
and the U.S. have required
heavy expenditures this year.
"A portion of the funds are
kept on the local level to be used
in community welfare ser
vices, said Brownneia, and
last summer three young people
from the Heppner-Condon area
benefited from a regional camp
for the under privileged held in
northern Idaho."
Everyone is welcome and
cordially invited to hear the
Rev. Prescott Beals who will
speak at the Church of the
Nazarene on Dec. 8,9,10. Friday
