Page 6. THE GAZETTE-TIMES, Heppner. OR, Thursday, Jan. 6, 1977
Are you ready tor 1977? Snow and ice cover the streets of
Heppner for the new year. Traveling is dangerous, even
walking. Snowmobiling must be great, with the mountains
covered with inches of snow.
The merchants have completed their inventory and will hold a
January Clearance Sale this weekend. Just think, you can buy a
new wardrobe for almost half the price.
The Shoe Box (formerly Gonty's) had a busy day Monday.
Joyce and Jerry were busy selling boots all day. Terrific way to
start a new business. Of course, Ed and Eleanor were there
helping, too.

Walt Hill with their daughter and son-in-law, Mark and Tracey
Gillespie, and new baby, Danielle, from Walla Walla, Wash.,
and Betty and Louie Carlson and children Sheri, Phil and Clint
from lone, her brother Dean and Wife Bonnie and son, Kenny,
and her mother, Mrs. Dorris Graves, all enjoying a family
get-together and, of course, must not forget to mention the
"football games which dominated the day.
f The Monte Stookeys and children, with Gladys Heliker,
drove to Baker, Ore., to spend part of the holidays with Monte's
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Marion Stookey.
' Almost not making it home from visiting their daughter and
; son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Dean Nafzinger in White Salmon,
Wash., were Leonard and Edie Munkers. They had to leave their
motorhome in White Salmon and drive Dean's pickup home
Sunday evening when the snow and freezing weather turned the
highways to dangerous driving conditions.
Just finished talking to Jim Rogers, and the plans he has for
his Grand Opening this Sat., Jan. 8, sound fantastic! Something
.for everyone. ..starting with pizza and pop for the younger set in
the afternoon, to a style show, wine tasting party and live
' entertainment in the evening. Tis the time to relax and have a
good time, all on the West of Willow this Sat. night.
Mrs. Ruth Reid had as houseguests New Year's Day her son
Ronald, his wife, Virginia, and their son, Robbie.
5 Andy Gorman, son of Sharon Stookey, flew to Portland to

about a
book?
Do exciting mystery books
warm your blood? How about
a good biography?
Your public library has top
works by many of the most
popular writers of mysteries:
more than a shelf full of
Agatha Christie, another long
shelf of Earle Stanley Gard
ner, oldies by Mary Roberts
Rinehart, newer works by
many newer authors. The
mystery section is constantly
increasing. .
Do you admire Muhammed
Ali or El Tiante? How is your
collection of facts about Aaron
Burr, Charles Lindberg,
Queen Victoria or King Kame
hameha? Read their bio
graphies. You could prefer reading
magazines like Pacific
Search, Hoof and Horn or
Ranger Rick? Like the books,
these periodicals are loaned
for two-week periods.
The "How To" books are
increasing in number, too.
You can become a better cook,
produce clever gifts, make
your home more attractive
with their suggestions and di
rections. Don't forget the large-type,
easy eye books that are so
non-tiring to read. Don't give
in to boredom during the
holidays come to your li
