Linda Bristow weds Jeffrey Pool
V with Justine Weatherford
Along with some other non-lumber-related persons, I
toolc a tour of the new section of the Kinzua Mill here last
Friday morning. Marsha Mathewson was our charming and
efficient guide. I wished I could have heard all she had to tell
when we got near the wonderful, but rather noisy machinery.
Several wives of mill men were in the group. I asked my
friend Lenna Smith if this new, super machinery was making
her husband Glenn's work easier. She said she couldn't say
too much about it. "Until the bugs are all out and everything
is really well established it's been sort of a strain. However,
in time, things will probably be smoother and easier."
easier."
It was so exciting for me to watch the big logs move
through the various steps so swiftly. They were sawed into
various dimensions and were sorted and stacked by
push-button operations. I observed that the men and women
who push the buttons really had to know what they were
doing and do it quickly and on a few occasions and at a few
spots manual help with movement of the material was
required.
Marsha answered my questions about power and I was
impressed by the fact that the hydraulic power is generated
(or is re-generated?) right at the site. I am not sure I
understand very well just how this is done but it seems like
a fine idea.
I have always felt that the mill workers really do heavy
labor and still think that many of them do but I now see
that some don't work much harder than I am, as I push these
typewriter keys they push keys, too but I am afraid I
couldn't do their type of button pushing and maybe most of
them wouldn't relish fussing with words on paper,either. So,
to each his own!
Last Saturday was certainly a big recycling day in
Heppner. The Soroptimists started their rummage recycling
on Thursday evening but I didn't get to their sale until "Bag
Day" on Saturday, when many large grocery bags of
somebody's castoffs were becoming somebody else's
treasures. The funds collected will go toward the club's
scholarships. Business seemed quite brisk for the
Sorotimists in spite of some very good competition.
Two other recycling sales were going great on Court
Street, a lively, five-family effort on North Court and a dandy
one-family enterprise on South Court. As my friend Ida
Farra and I shopped around we met some of the same
shoppers at each sale. All were really eager bargain hunters.
Once I thought that most of the yard and garage sales were
over for the year, but with the beautiful warm weather, they
really went well last weekend.
After I turned in my last week's column, I was pleased to
see a nice TV special segment on lone. It dealt with the flood
plain problem. I thought that Channel 8 did a nice job on its
Northwest Tonight of Wednesday, Oct. 18. The views of lone
and of "presently three-feet-wide" Willow Creek and of
Ione's lady mayor, Linda LaRue, and of other citizens were
very good.
Several hunters from down Tillamook and Seaside way
have been coming regularly each fall to deer and bird hunt
along Little Butter Creek. One couple, John and Mary Supple
from Seaside (he is a cousin of George Currin and is an
official of the Bumble Bee Tuna Co.) had attended a large
world food producers' conference in the Philippine Islands.
They were suprised that of the six persons there from the
United States that three others were from Oregon David
and Barbara (Bloodsworth) Anderson formerly of Heppner
who are working with Dole Pineapple Co. there and Don
Patridge who is formerly of Pilot Rock.
Heppner High's fine F.F.A. stock judging team had been
looking forward to doing their stuff at the Pacific
International Livestock show in Portland last weekend, and
knew that they were all well prepared. After an early
morning start last Saturday they got only to Rufus when a
bus problem cancelled out their trip. They had to turn around
and come home so whichever team did win will never know
t
if they could have surpassed the team from Heppner. We feel

that Heppner would have scored very high. How
disappointing!'
My personal little disappointment of last week came on
Friday afternoon when I had looked forward to having
Jennifer Currin come to my house and visit and have
supper but she forgot and hopped on her regular schoolbus
instead.
I haven't mentioned my puppy Tip lately. We are having
problems of several sorts. Since he is now nearly five months
old, he has doubled and re-doubled in size from the little
bundle he was at five weeks. Now he easily jumps over the
fence around our yard.
This is very distressing to me. I am not the firm, talented
dog trainer that my neighbor Tracy Beal is. I try to keep Tip
chained up, but keep thinking I can trust him for a few
minutes now and then. He is a gregarious creature and longs
to play with other neighborhood pups so over the fence he
flys.
I am definitely beginning to realize that I probably made
a mistake to take a "ranch-type" dog into a town situation. I
surely hope that when he gets a little older we will have a
better understanding of acceptable behavior.
I've just discovered, in a new way, how nice it is to be
someone's mother-in-law. Seems that last Sunday was
Mother-In-Law Day. When the Posy Patch delivery came to
my door with a beautiful floral arrangement I was afraid
there was some mistake. I told Vern Batty that "It isn't my
birthday." She said, "Well, maybe you are somebody's
mother-in-law anyway, this is meant for you."
The pretty gift had a little card that said, "Happy
Mother-In-Law Day with love from Rick. How nice! Rick
Weaver is my newest in-law, the June groom of Karla
Weatherford Weaver. When I 'phoned him at Bremerton to
thank him for the lovely rememberance, he so kindly
remarked, "I hope you will be my mother-in-law for a long
time" which was almost nicer than the floral arrangement.

Gontys return from Holland tour
Ed and Eleanor Gonty and
their son Tom returned to -Heppner
on Sunday evening,
Oct. 22, after a three-week's
visit in western Europe with
youngest son Charles Douglas
and his wife Anastasia.
They spent most of the time
visiting where U.S. Air Force
Sgt. Doug Gonty is stationed in
Amestrade in Limburg Prov
ince, which juts off Holland's
southeastern corner, forming
a pocket almost surrounded
by Belgium and Germany.
Tom was "disappointed" in
the Dutch community. Ed was
impressed with the high
prices, the unemployment, the
taxes which prohibit most
citizens from having TV's and
telephones in their homes. The
Gontys traveled into Germany
and into Belgium where they
visited with some of Ed's
relatives.
Eleanor says the flat Dutch
landscape reminded her of
Illinois and Iowa. She says
they enjoyed visiting several
museums and found that her
senior citizen card brought
her a reduction in the admis
sion to one of these. She felt
that food was very expensive,
especially eating out, with
coffee at nearly 80 cents a cup.
' Everywhere people enjoy
drinking beer which sells for
50 cents a small glass.
Pomona Grange meet set
Pomona Grange will be held
Saturday, Oct. 28, at Lexing
ton Grange.
The program topic will be
"Farm Equipment Safety"
Featured speaker will be
Harold Kerr, who will also
show some slides on the
subject.
. Postcards cost "at least 75
cents each; small souvenirs
and little books are very costly
too." Eleanor also commented
that people are charged for
using public restrooms.
Western Europeans are
great bicyclers, their autos
are small and travel fast
bicycles have the
right-of-way. "Hit a bicycle
and you're liable for arrest."
Eleanor says not many Euro
pean women wear pants
suits "You could easily spot
the American travelers. Most
jiui'opean women are wearing
full-skirted dresses (for ease
in bicycling) and high-heeled
shoes."
The three travelers learned
lots about using the metric
system and something about
converting Dutch guilders into
U.S.'s falling dollars. All three
said they really enjoyed
getting aquainted with Anas
tasia and having a good visit
with Doug, but they were all
happy to fly back to America
and to get home to Heppner.
