The Gazette-Times, Heppner, Ore., Thursday June 30, 1977 THREE
Eastern Star donates
At the annual Grand Chapter
Session of the Order of the

was presented to the University
of Oregon Health Sciences
Center to be used for cancer
research.
Heppner's Ruth Locust Chap
ter No. 32 was part of the
District Four grouping, which
along with Umatilla, Loyalty,
Oregon Trail, Queen Esther,
Bushee and Purple Sage helped
to raise $621 toward the fund.

Maybe it takes visitors to make one appreciate one's home
community.. .Our guests from uj) Seattle way this last weekend,
most of whom had not seen Heppner or this county before, were
so enthusiastic about the area.
"The forests, the lakes, the great open spaces and the
Columbia River, too!. ..We sure like the feel of this town. Things
seem to grow well here. there are lots of nice homes."
They also commented on our pleasing churches, on the
hospital building and the fine looking high school.
"People here must be proud of their past that little
schoolhouse in the park is a dandy shrine... your county museum
is a really great surprise."
I, for one, never get tired of hearing such remarks. I did,
however, feel apologetic as I led these guests from the museum
to the schoolhouse and found paper sacks, milkshake glasses,
potato-chip bags, candy wrappers, crumpled cigarette packs
and other miscellaneous litter all around the Democrat Gulch
School. Looking over to the back steps of the Library-Museum
Building we could see what seemed to be a special garbage
dumping place. Those back steps have long encouraged
misbehavior.
(It occured to me that most of the fine first, second and third
graders from Heppner Elementary' School must be away
visiting their grandparents somewhere, because they are our
town's best litter gatherers. The Garden Club ladies who
conducted a "Litter Awareness" campaign in their rooms last
spring saw them collect so much litter that Clifford Green had to
make a special Friday afternoon run to haul it all to the dump.)
As we drove about, our visitors observed our city policeman
patroling the streets. They remarked, "Surely there isn't much
crime here? Why must there be a patrolman on duty on Sunday
afternoon?"
This matter is something I've thought about, too. Perhaps by
keeping up constant patroling we keep crime down surely that
is the theory. I didn't want to tell the visitors that articles have
been taken from our yard and from the yards of our friends. I
did not say how disgusted we were last December when we kept
replacing outside Christmas light bulbs as they were taken right
off our porch several times.
I recalled the flag stealing that took place at the '
fairgrounds and didn't mention that sad affair because I hope
such vandalism is past. But as the rememberance of "bad"
incidents flashed through my mind I began to feel that even
though this seems a lovely, friendly, quiet place on a summer
Sunday afternoon it is probably best that inspite of money
problems at city hall that we try to keep our good policeman at
their patroling.
Oh for those "Good Old Days" when everybody knew and
trusted everybody. Times when we never locked our doors,
either home or car, and when we felt that everyone in the county
was a personal, trusted friend.
What has brought the change? Is it our growing population? Is
it our lack of attractive, reasonably priced, available housing?
Is it the matter of too many homes with working parents?
Could the increasing number of "broken" families be the cause?
Is it the fact that too few families attend churches and consider
moral matters?
Has T.V. violence, which many adults and many, many
children watch for hour after hour, helped to stimulate a
disregard for the Golden Rule. Where is this rule stressed?
What ever the reason for our need for the policing we have
here, which is minor compared to systems in larger
communities isn't it too bad that we can't get away from this
need? Isn't it sad that we can't spend public funds for
constructive, uplifting projects and not need to check on one
another constantly just to see that we behave like thoughtful, '
civilized humans?
Oh dear, what a chain of thoughts our weekend visitors
started.

Hardman reunion
atttended by 185
The well-established Father's
Day Reunion in the Hardman
area attracted 185 persons last
Sunday. This delightful, historic
event was begun some years
ago as a Leathers Family
reunion, but about four years
ago it became a community
reunion, hosted by the Howell
Family for years and taken
over by the McDaniel Family
this year.
Dallas McDaniel, Ivan Mc
Daniel, Earl Cramer and two
McDaniel-related guitarists
provided music in the Old Opera
House while dancers enjoyed
both square and modern danc
ing. A "food-galore" potluck noon
dinner was served to the crowd
in the dinning space of the
ancient building on Hardman 's
Main Street. Wayne Leathers
was the day's Master of
Ceremonies. The four genera
tions of mostly ex-Hardmanites
enjoyed their day of visiting and
honoring their founding fathers.
Folks came to Hardman from
California, Washington and
many parts of Oregon.
