The Page 4, THE GAZETTE-TIMES, Heppner, OR. Dec. 4, 1975 Party By Dor(hy Ziu Line The tall, stark buildings that grace the skylines of our cities, once viewed by me, now is a thing of the past. Thank goodness. This past weekend, three women, five children and two dogs took off for the mountain cabin. All of us were in wonder with the deep snow and the silence of the tall, majestic mountains sur rounding us. It was late Saturday evening when we heard the children whispering wishes for an eight-foot blizzard. Then their vacation would not be over. Early Sunday morning we heard my friends eight-year-old daughter (city raised) shouting up the stairs. "Mom, mom, your car is lost in the snow and we didnt do it." Their w ishes had come true, four hours later. Grandpa Cutsforth came to the rescue. Thanks Grandpa.

This week's column "Com panionship" written by Terry D. Hirni, ACSW, explains the feelings of new comers in this area. We all agree that Heppner is sadly lacking in hospitality. It is fairly, easy if you have children in school, attend church services. But for a young mother w ith young children at home, I can remember how difficult it was for me. The Newcomers club is hoping to help in this area. Even if you don't eat lunch. Join them in a cup of coffee at the Wagon Wheel Restaurant. There is the Heppner Child Development Center where your child can be dropped off for a while. Saturday afternoon an open house bridal shower was held for Lynda Orwick at the Episcopal Parish Hall.

Mayor Gene Orwick said that two men have resigned this year. They are Leonard Munkers and Jack White. Gene would n't say whom Pat was replacing. But with Pat there the meetings have to be interesting. Her sense of humor is tremendous, even under advertisities. I'm not playing favorites, of course not. however, time after time Peterson's Jewelry window displays are always nice enough to catch the eye. The Christmas Santa sleeping and the busy elf makes one stop and look.

A large number of 4H members present expressed their interest in English riding and asked that it be included in the 4 H horse show. It was stressed that the mode of dress would be informal and not to be considered in judging if approval of said classes can be introduced. Training lessons taking place on Sunday afternoons should equip all participants to be able to compete in forth coming horse shows in this area and elsew here. Because of the large numb er of persons now participat ing in these training sessions, it is necessary for everyone to be prompt prior to the scheduled time. Presently there is a limitation on the number of riders per each home group. Plans are to continue riding all winter, with additional sessions for others wishing to participate. Interested persons should no tify the instructors imme diately. In taking advantage of this instruction, horse people will be better equipped to school horses with proper aids and become more accomplished In English as well as Western riding.
