Now the world has turned into the month that Julius Caesar
named after himself when he readjusted the calendar. He
gave his month 31 days which, in the northern half of the
world, are full of growth, abundant animal and plant life, and
the hum of traveling people.
Some traveling has been fun, some not so good.we hear
that Dee Cox took an unplanned trip to the hospital after he
broke his hip last week. His wife Getty was so concerned and
upset that she moved into the hospital with him for a time.
The Sidewalk Sale on Friday. July 8, brought lots of folks to
Heppner. It seemed like most of lone and Lexington and quite
a few from other places came to mingle with friends and to
enjoy the bargain hunting. It was so good to see three old
friends from Pendleton, Velva and Adrian Bechdolt and
Jeanne Dobbs, as they progressed along the street stopping
frequently to be greeted by their friends here.
A look about the new Kroll Store was pleasing lots of
clothing and also a nice corner holding shower curtains and
accessories, a fine collection of towels and bed linens and
grandma-exciting baby equipment.
One of the unusual offerings during the sale was at the
excellent noon meal prepared and served by the Degree of
Honor Protective Association ladies. Among the fine array of
foods there was a plate heaped with tiny, pink, hard-boiled
eggs. Investigation revealed that these were quail eggs that
came from the quails belonging to Irene Anhorn; they were
cooked and colored by the day's luncheon chairman, Martha
King.
We happened to share a table with Irene and with another
of the luncheon cooks, Eleanor Gonty. Irene was calling
people "Chicken" who did not seem to relish the tiny, pink
eggs.
We remember that at last year's County Fair we saw our
first, naturally-colored, blue eggs and some speckled eggs,
too which were also from Irene Anhorn 's unusual birds. She
should perhaps charge admission to people who would like to
see her great collection of animals and birds. We know that
she has taken a few little animals to visit at the Heppner
Elementary School.
The Heppner Garden Club offered shoppers a goodly
selection of plants and "garden related" foods. As I thought
this description over, I began to wonder what foods are not
garden related except some of my favorite sea foods. We
were so pleased with the carrot cookies that Theta Lowe
made her currant jelly surely sold quickly, too.
Did you see that desperado-style cookie jar which was
filled with home-made cookies? It came from ex-club
president, Jane Rawlins. New club president, Alberta
Johannes, brought lots of packed-in-ice, cool, crisp leaf
lettuce from her garden.
It seems like the Sidewalk Sale is a dandy event, helpful to
sellers and to buyers and to ambitious organizations and a
very good time for socializing. It is a sort of warmup event
for next month's County Fair.
Local gardens catch our interest these fine growing days.
Tall, bright sunflowers are now blooming among the rows of
food stuffs in the large Harold Becket garden. The Harley
Young garden in flourishing. The Bernard Marshalls are
showing an old-world or Oriental use of land with their
plantings on terraces in front of their attractive home.
Although our area is not a natural one for rose cultivation,
several gardners have nice rose beds, including Judge and
Juanita Carmichael.
Our personal selection for one of the most improved homes
and yards in town is the Seth Forquer place at 215 South
Court St. That family has surely shown what much loving
labor can do to an older, once neglected place. Bless them.
Gladys and Frank Connor had two sons and their families
visiting them over the July 4 weekend.
Wendell Connor, his wife Helen and daughter Calla, 9,
came from their home at Forest Grove where he is in the title
and insurance business.
A second son "Skip" and his wife Peggy and son David, 17,
joined the group. They came to Heppner from their home in
Pilot Rock.
Gladys returned to Forest Grove with the Wendell Connors
on Monday at visit a few days. On Wednesday, July 6, she
came back here with Alice Hastings and Opal Cook who had
been visiting in the Willamette Valley.
It has been 13 years since Carolyn Barnes last visited
Heppner and her parent's home. Sylvia and Carl McDaniel
were living in a different location then, but after that last big
flood wiped out their home they relocated on Water Street.
Carolyn is accompanied by her three children Andrea 15,
Leslie 14 and Douglas 11; they arrived here on the seventh
day of this seventh month and will be staying for about two
weeks.
As the foursome drove west they carefully followed routes
traveled by their pioneer ancestors, coming from Kentucky
west along roads mentioned in family history. They,
however, left the historic routes when they turned north to
visit Yellowstone Park.
Carolyn, who is in the realestate business in central
Maryland, was graduated from Heppner High School with
the class of 1959.
Asked what changes she notices in Heppner, she said, "I
miss several old, familiar buildings. Also, although I didn't
think about it until I arrived, I find that my old friends are
looking a bit older."

All in the family
for Princess Donna
Try to pick out Princess Donna Palmer on this year's Fair
and Rodeo Court and there's a good chance you'll come up
wrong. That's because Donna is one half of a twin sister duo
that confounds all but the closest observer.
The Palmer family of lone is well represented on the
current court excursions with Donna, her sister, Deborah,
and their mother, chaperone Mary Ann Palmer. For Donna
and the other Palmers, the weekend trips and parade
appearances are becoming quite familiar.
Donna was selected as a court pennant bearer two previous
years and as a color bearer for an additional year. She helped
carry the Morrow County standard two years ago when older
sister Barbara was a princess on the court. Now Barbara is
married and living in Hermiston and a younger sister, Anita,
is looking forward to the time when she can get involved in
court activities.
Although Donna did a lot of traveling with the court as
pennant bearer, this year's role as princess has taken on
added responsibilities.
"i"I guess the biggest difference is all the luncheons and
speaking engagements we go to," she said. "But I've been
able to meet lots of people and lots of girls from other courts.
I've had a good time promoting the fair."
Sometimes the schedule can get a bit hectic for all
involved. Last weekend the court traveled to Prineville
where they placed second out of 14 courts in parade judging.
This weekend, it's back to the fairgrounds for the Saturday
night dance honoring Princess Donna and then after
grabbing a couple of hours of sleep, the court is off to Elgin
for a parade appearance Sunday.
Although the court schedule keeps her on the move, Donna
has still found time for plenty of other activities this summer.
Two weeks ago she served as a camp counselor at the 4-H
camp at Cutsforth Park. It was her second year as counselor
and Donna is now in her last year of 4-H, having participated
in sewing, cooking, leathercraft, horsemanship and
showmanship.
In addition to competing in 4-H horse shows, Donna has
been a member of the Wranglers for the past seven years and
last year she took up English riding.
With that time of year rolling around again, Donna is
getting ready for harvest on the Palmer ranch with the twins,
their grandfather and their father, Lee Palmer, handling
most of the chores.
A special interest of Donna's is her time spent at
Rietmann's Hardware in lone where she is a part-time
bookkeeper. She has taken an interest in marketing and
management and plans to enroll in classes in those areas this
fall at Blue Mountain Community College.
"I got interested in finance and those areas from working
at Rietmann's and I took business classes in high school,"
Donna said.
Before graduating from lone High School last month,
Donna was also involved in the National Honor Society, the
Pep Band and the Swing Choir, She was active in several
sports and was awarded and Elks leadership scholarship this
year.
She plans to put the scholarship to good use at Blue
Mountain, but until then, Princess Donna will continue to
represent the Morrow County Fair and Rodeo in fine style.
