The purpose is threefold: to bring Christmas cheer to the people of the Heppner-Lexington-Jone area; to help acquaint as many as possible with the worldwide aid pro gram of the church; and to raise funds to help with a portion of its support. For the second year in a row, says Robert Youngberg, Heppner Advent ist pastor, inflation has made it neces sary to raise an even larger; amount than before. Needs increase, and the dollar buys less; and caught in this squeeze, the church must increase its giving. The generous help of (he com munity is thoroughly appre ciated, lie said. According to the pastor, who has served in Borneo, one of the most primitive areas of the world, it is a fact thai in a number of these primitive places Advent ists provide the only medical and educational servicesavailablc. Their work requires 528 languages in the 1K! countries in which they have established work. 'Ferryboats on the Columbia' A review by Thelma Kim niel. associate. Western Writ ers of America I Nothing in the settlement of Washington and Oregon was more important than the ferrylHials that crossed the Columbia Kiver with men. materials and slock. From the lime ol the dugout canoe In Hie handsome tugs. diesel powered. pushing barges, they were advent tiresome and nec essary. The river had many moods; ii was angry in storms and floods and violent in its cascades, and il took brave or foolish men to challenge it. Now that great dams and high bridges, linked to a net -work of speedways lor motorized vehicles, have spel led doom to an exciting era. we look back with some nostalgia. There are few adults who have not had some experience in crossing the mighty river by terry if they have lived in Washington or Oregon. "Ferryboats on the Colum bia Kiver" is a history of lerryboals compiled by two distinguished historians and collaborators--!)!-. Ruby and Professor Brown. They have combed every county seal whose area borders the Columbia, and talked to old time ferrymen and their deseendants. getting human interest stories as well as hundreds of pictures. Those who have read the award-winning authors' "Hall-Sun on the Columbia." "The Spokane Indians Children of the Sun" or "The Cayuse Indians Imperial Tribesmen" already know the joy of reading their work. Indian dugouts were the first ferryboats linking hard packed trails, short-cuts to important destinations. The invaders, fur-traders, mis sionaries, miners, soldiers, cattlemen and eventually set tlers, were quick to build crude rails for crossing the Columbia. These were pro- 1 A Free Gift For You 676-9106 Contributions are allocated to local, state, national and international programs ac cording to needs. Overseas, the church supports schools, leper colonies, clinics, medi cal launches, hospitals and emergency air service, giving the only access to medical help that thousands of persons have. Community services of the church include, among many other activities, a fleet of disaster relief vans located in strategic areas across North America, Hurricanes, torna does, and the resulting deva station and floods have kept the church busy in many areas. "This is the 71st year of the World Service Appeal during which funds have been receiv ed to assist the church in its humanitarian work," accord ing to Pastor Youngberg. "The generous response from the many communities of concerned citizens helps spread farther the assistance given those in need, and is deeply appreciated. Inciden tally, it is requested that if the church has overlooked anyone in need in this area, please call (176 9449, or any Adventist you know." pel led by sail, horse-tread and cable and in time by steam, gasoline and diesel. Ferry boats had a long, often dangerous and competitive hisiory . Men ol all types and of dilfercnl races ran, owned or . crossed over the great "Kiver to the West" on some kind of lioai. the most im portant even Presidents of . the I'nited States and the most law less. Alter the settle ments grew, thousands of head ol livestock and tons of wheat crossed by ferry, head ed for the nearest railroad. There was no s)ot on the river below the Canadian border thai il was possible to lord. Ferryboat use lasted right up into the motor vehicle era; only recently the last boat on the central strip stopped serv ice and left us with some feeling of loss and nostalgia. For there was a special joy in crossing the wide, historic river on a ferry. Ferryboats were utilized on the Columbia through Indian wars and foreign wars, carry ing materials and loads be yond their capacity. They have been involved in building enterprises, and at times in transporting illicit goods and whiskey There have been tragedy, romance, comedy, pathos, coinage, greed and sometimes unholy competi tion in ferryboat history whether they were owned by individuals, companies or the government . Ferryboat runs often deve loped into settlements and large settlements developed their ferry service as close as possible; there were few spots in the Northwest unaffected by ferryboat service on the great river, crisscrossing the paths of the Kiver Queens. Sometimes the ferryman's cabin might be the only habitat in a stretch of forest or desert especially on the up per Columbia. His home was also the post office and the roads that ended at the river led to strategic points. "Ferryboats on the Colum bia Kiver" gives the human interest stories along with historical information and 260 rare photographs. 1 Retread Winter Tires STUDDING 6.95 per tire MILES (Brothers) Tire Service 676-9481 Day care center's work explained Eddie Skow of the Heppner Child Development Center explained the center's opera tion to members of the Chamber of Commerce Mon day.
