Party Itaretat IU Remember when we cele brated Washington and Lin coln's birthdayi? February 2, the State and County office were closed. Pauline Winter and Sharon Stookey worked at the courthouse.

We of America's nearly 1.000 rural electric systems have taken some giant steps, too. during our own much-briefer history. Just 40 years ago fewer than ten farms In hun dred had electric light and power; today America's countryside Is almost completely electrified. Peoples lives have changed, Improved. Communities have new vigor and purpose. Rural outmigratlon has ceased, even re versed. Now we must point our feet down the road ahead, take more giant steps . . . ao that to morroWi children can look back 200 years from now on a past as glorious as ours.

No longer will you have to pay for a full or half day if your child Is there two hours or less. The new rate for two hours or less is 90 cents a hour, with a small snack. The all day charge la $4.50 and $2.50 for half a day. If you have not tried the Heppner Child Development Center, I would suggest you do. The surroundings are cheerful, lots of children to play with and the very best of supervision. Also there Is a section for small babies. This is the ideal place to have your child go after school, until you can pick them up. Also I almost forgot to add, the cost for each additional child is half price. Call the center, 676-9246, talk to Monica if you have further questions. Clarence Bauman is recu perating at home after having major heart surgery at Veter ans Hospital, Seattle.
