First HERMISTON Bicentennial Forum Pioneer ProfiSes By Justine Weatherford Amanuel C. Pctteyi was born in New York in 1830, the son of a Christian Church minister. Seven yean after the death of his father in 1846, his mother, with her two sons and three daughters crossed the plains, enduring many hardships during their 16 months journey. In the spring of 1854 they settled near Salem where they lived until 1868. Amanuel C. Petteys came to what is now Morrow County in 1868, driving a herd of cattle across the mountains from near Salem. He settled at the forks of Rhea and Willows Creeks near the present site of the Jordan Elevator. He obtained a homestead and lived there the rest of his life. Mrs. Petteys, the former Catherine (Katie) Gienger, tells of crossing the plains with her family in 1863 in a 62 wagon train; of coming to Morrow County in 1871 when only 14 years of age, and of her marriage to Amanuel Petteys in 1880 in Pendleton. The Petteys had seven children; George Amanuel (Mannie). Albert O., and daughters, Mrs. Fred Nicho son, Mrs. C.W. Swanson, Mrs. Frank Engleman, Mrs. J K. Crosman and Mrs. E.P. New ton. Mr. Pettey followed the stock raising industry for many years and operated an early stage stop, was a pioneer postmaster and serv ed as county assessor in 1896. The Petteys place, known as Petteysvillc, included more than 1,000 acres. The post office located in their farm house was' also known as Petteysvillc, and Amanuel was postmaster for 17 years. Al first (he mail was brought in by a buckboard, but later they used a regular stage coach. They received their mail on a stage that ran between Leonard's Bridge on the John Day and Pendleton. The Morrow County Mu seum has a collection of biographical facts about the Petteys, including two feature stories from early Oregon newspapers. One from the Salem Statesman dated June 18. 1919. tells that Amanuel C. Pettey started reading the paper with its first issue. He continued as a subscriber with the bi weekly paper coming to his lone address until his death in 1919. He paid for the first of his 68 years of subscriptions by running the paper's handpress. Another interesting article written by Fred Lockley of the Oregonian in 1929. tells of a personal interview with Mrs. Petley. She says. "In the early days we did our trading at The Dalles, for Ihere w as no town at either lleppner or Arling ton, and of course there was no lone or Lexington." Petteysville was sold to Marion Palmer in 1957, after son George Amanuel (Man nie) who had farmed it became ill. Mannie never married After he left the farm, he lived with his sister, Mrs. Edith Nichoson, lone. He died in April 1965, al the age of 85 His brother Albert, preced ed him in death. Albert had two children; a son, Gilbert and a daughter, Olive. Amanuel C. and his wife, Katie Gienger Petteys. are buried in the Petteys' Ceme tery along with many others, four generations of their " distinguished pioneer family. I Heppner School I Menus Mon..

"Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it. Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!" Patrick Henry. "Restriction of free thought and free speech is the most dangerous of all subversions, il is the one unAmeriean act that could most easily defeat us," William O. Douglas Among the "unalienable rights" that we cherish, per haps the most basic are the rights to say what we want, when we want and where we want ; to assemble with others to talk freely; and to worship in the way we choose. Our Founding Fathers, who had seen the corrupt side of governmental power, insisted on First Amendment liberties as a bulwark against tyranny. Bui are these rights absolute? Most of us don't really want others to be able to say or write anything, anywhere, at any time, so we limit these basic rights. Hanging witches, banning books, jailing dissi dents, and requiring or prohi biting prayers this "Free country" has done all of these. And the practices of some religious sects have been pro hibited by the nation's laws. Is freedom so fragile that we sometimes must or think we must defend it by denying it to others? Or is the surest way lo defend it through what Oliver Wendell Holmes called the "free trade in ideas"? On the other hand, are there no limits at all to freedom? What is the dividing line between art and pornography? Between reasonable protest and imper missible violence? Between religious principle and anti social practice? When does the expression of an opinion become treason, endangering the common good or the rights of others? W hat makes up an "unlawful assembly"? The Sedition Act of 1798 threatens anyone who utters or writes "false, scandalous and malicious" comments against the government of the United States with fine and imprisonment. In U S. v. Cruikshank ( 18761 the Supreme Court holds that the right of (he people to assemble peacefully for law ful purposes existed long before the Constitution was adopted. The Court traces (he right to English law and describes it as a distinct, separate and independent righl. The 1963 March on Wash ington, led by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., demonstrates the importance of mass assemblies as a way of shaping public policy in the area of civil rights. Such meetings, sometimes marked by violence, become an im portant tactic again during the Vietnam War. Soroptimist Baked Food Sale Friday.

Those attending will learn that breakfast is important be cause it is the first meal of the day and breaks the fast from the previous night. It is a time for refueling for the day's activities. An investigation of the effect of different breakfast patterns on 121 subjects show ed that omitting breakfast resulted in decreased efficien cy in the late morning hours. Skipping breakfast did not enhance weight loss for those who were trying to lose weight. Educators recognize the relationship of breakfast and efficiency in the class room. That is why breakfast programs are now in opera tion in many schools. Participants in the study group lessons will analyze the difference in price and nutri tive value of a variety of cereal products on the mar ket. They also will compare one-dish commercially pre pared breakfast foods with other breakfast foods. Tradi tional breakfasts will be compared with nonconven t ion a I breakfast foods which provide similar nutritive value. If a child doesn't like bacon and eggs or cereal, perhaps he would really like a piece of pizza or a hamburger. Two parks remain open Boardman Park. Board man, and Plymouth Park near Plymouth.
