i f Page 4. THE GAZETTE-TIMES, Heppner, OR, Thursday. Nov. 4-H NEWS Young people today have interests in wide and varied topics, and 4-H has projects to fit many interests, with new and revised materials being developed yearly by specia lists. A new state-wide project which is keyed to the interest in old skills among today's young people is now available, according to Birdine Tullis, Morrow Extension Service. Crochet, which has been a project in Morrow County for a number of years, is now a state wide project, with writ ten project materials and guides to assist leaders and members. Timing is right for the new project during the Bicentennial year which is causing increased interest in learning a skill which was common in grandma's day. The crocheting project is divided into six phases, each introducing members to more difficult stitches than the previous one. It is designed so young people can progress at their own pace and do the things they and their leader want to do. and advanced phases may be repeated if desired. Another creative project often overlooked which gjfces young people wide choices and creative opportunities, is the 4-H Home Environment pro ject. What the member does in this project is really up to him. It can be refinishing furniture, redoing a bedroom, putting together a collage, or a pillow, or any chosen small or large project as long as it assists the member in creat ing a living space that fits their needs and reflects their interests. "I can think of no other project that offers leaders and members as many creative options," Bird ine said. "There are probably more helps available on pro jects that could be done under this heading than any other! Everywhere you look there are clever and inexpensive ideas that could be used in this project." One of the newer 4-H projects that should interest boys and girls is the Small Engines project offered under the mechanical science head ing. Most young people like to tinker with machines, and with a little help and instruc tion from a leader, can acquire skills that will benefit them throughout their lives, while they are having fun and keeping busy. This project also offers many options, and can be tailored to the interests of the leader and members. The Outdoorsman project, with a new club forming in the Heppner area, provides op portunities for young people to develop interests and skills in the outdoors, healthful out door exercise and knowledge about conserving the environ ment. Two young people with an intense interest in this project. Mark Sargent and Randy Worden. with assist ance from Mike Howell, and A whole new and very, very personal gift idea in spoon rings... rem Jlprc Spoon Stones or her!

Spoon Stones ore her! $15.00 other resource persons, will be working with members inter ested in this project. For more information, meeting date, and plans, interested young people may call the Extension Office, or one of the two mentioned teen leaders. Teen leadership is relatively new to Oregon 4-H, but throughout the state many older members are finding new challenges and satisfac tions in helping younger members learn by doing in a 4-H project. "In many coun ties, teen leadership has proven very successful and popular." In Morrow County, Ruth Ann Keithley, a teen leader is working with a group of younger girls in a macrame project. These members will have an opportunity to send their project to state fair next year in the Creative Arts division. Adults or teen age youth interested in working with younger members in a cro chet, home environment, me chanical science, or any other project may also call the Extension Office, 676-9642. There are many 9 to 19 year old youths waiting for an opportunity to be a member of a 4-H club. There is something for everyone in 4-H! Call Mike Howell, or Birdine Tullis, 676-9642 to learn what 4-H has for you!

Fourth Amendment to the Constitution. "The right to be let alone, the most comprehensive of rights and the right most valued by civilized men." Louis D. Brandcis. "Liberty is the only thing you cannot have unless you are willing to give it to others." William Allen White The nation's founding peo ples feared a night-time knock on the door by British sold iers; they appreciated the danger of laws enforced without due process. Freedom from search and seizure particularly mattered to them. Modern technology has added new and disturbing dimensions to the fears that prompted the adoption of the Fourth Amendment. Conceal ed cameras with telescopic lenses, tapped telephones, listening devices that can hear through walls, computer data banks that recall the most minute details of our lives all . are instruments that could be used by tax auditors, credit investigators, and personnel managers to snoop on us. Small wonder that the courts have been broadening the Fourth Amendment to support a right to privacy against many new forms of search and seizure. Yet there are search es and seizures, with and without court orders. In as large and complex a society as ours, the Government ob viously needs information, as do industry, banks, and em ployers. But how much? How is the collection and use of private information to be controlled? When does the right to privacy cease to be a right? When does its exercise interfere with the rights of others? Writs of assistance, general search warrants issued to the customs officers of the various colonies, first came into use in Massachusetts in 1751. They are used to ferret out all merchandise that has been slipped into the colonies with out being taxed. The writs arouse such passion that their issuance is listed in the Declaration of Independence as a common grievance.

Major George Currin participated in the War of 1812. and served as state representative and sen ator in Virginia. His older sons Hugh and George moved west to Missouri and later, along with their nephews Hugh and William Fields, crossed the plains in 1845. They lost considerable stock and horses to the Indians along the way west. Hugh and George left their wagons at The Dulles and look their stock over the Barlow Route south of Mt. Hood to homestead in the forks of the Clackamas River and Eagle Creek (near Estacada) where they established Currinsville. Hugh's sons George J. and Hugh operated the first store and post office there. George, Hugh and William Currin, with their families, moved to lone in 188. William Currin died there the next spring. In 1904 George J. Currin bought the Hugh Fields place on Little Butter Creek and Hinton Creek, which with the aid of his sons Ed and Hugh was enlarged and improved. In 1915 Mr. Currin sold part of the place to John Kilkenny. Hugh and Katie (Brosnan) Currin became operators of the Butter Creek Ranch about 1910. Their four sons grew up there. George F. is still operating the ranch with his sons Ron and Tom. The Currins added the Marion Finch Ranch to their holdings in 1962. They also own land in Eas! Birch Creek south of Pilot Rock and lease land in Wallowa County. The George F. Currin family were chosen Morrow County Live stockmen of the year in 1968. George F. married Helen Knotts of Pilot Rock. Their son Ron and his wife Judy i Lazinka and their four sons and daughter live on the former Finch Ranch. Tom lives with his parents in their new home on the "home place." George's brothers Hugh and Bob spend part of their time on the ranch, and their brother Ralph is a Pendleton attorney. Bob's son John Hugh Currin is working on the ranch with his uncle and cousins. George and Helen's oldest grandson. Ronnie, is off to Kansas City this week to attend the National FFA Convention.
