Caroling program to
support church work
Beginning Dec. 1 and con
tinuing through the 22nd, the
Heppner Seventh-day Adven
list church plans to bring its
caroling program to area
residents.
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.

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-

Contributions are allocated

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

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.
