The Gazette-Times, Hcppner, Oregon, Thursday November 30, 1978 ELEVEN
that up to 60 have attended
recent meals.
Suzanne Jepsen, tri-county
homemaker program super
visor, stated that of the 42
persons being aided in Mor
row, Gilliam and Wheeler
counties, 15 are in Heppner,
one is at lone and three are at
Boardman and Irrigon. She
announced that Adine Stone is
no longer working with the
program, but that Gladys
Jewell will handle all the
clients. The current CPR class
which Linda Connor and
Suzanne are conducting at
lone had nine enrollees. Their
next class will begin soon at
Fossil. Some money from the
Bisbee Fund, a philanthropic
community fund, is being used
by the homemaker program to
assist needy elderly with the
cost of glasses, teeth, etc. If
word of special needs is given
to Mrs. Jepsen she will try to
arrange help.
Paul Jones commented that
several charity funds that he
says are available at lodges
and clubs are not used too
often. He suggested that
Suzanne might somehow co
ordinate the use of these
funds.
Truman Messenger, county
transportation chairman, told
of the work being done on the
senior buses now in Portland.
Paul Jones, chairman of the
site selection committee, said
that several pieces of property
are being investigated but that
so far the committee has not
agreed on an ideal site for the
location of a future senior
center building.
Mrs. Golly horn announced
that there will not be a
December meeting of the
advisory council.
On Nov. 16, a special
mealtime program in Hep
pner attracted a good crowd of
seniors who enjoyed sharing
the Thanksgiving turkey and
fixings buffet prepared by
chief cook Eleanor Gonty and
new assistant cook Marilyn
Bergstrom and their helpers.
After the meal the group saw
slides the E.E. Gontys brought
back from their recent Euro
pean trip.
Mulchfor
gardens
Cont. from page 5
"Highway departments and
other public agencies have
used this type of netting
extensively," says Kerr.
Grass clippings make a
good mulch if they are used
rather sparingly. If applied
too thick, grass clippings
become compacted and pre
vent water from entering the
soil. Other good mulching
materials include compost,
sawdust, straw and compost
ed leaves. These organic
mulches are low in nitrogen.
Kerr recommends adding nit
rogen fertilizer at a rate of
one cup for each cubic foot of
organic material before
placing them around plants or
in the garden.
Several precautions apply to
leaves. They should be com
posted before using as a mulch
because the raw leaves are
flat and may keep water from
entering the soil. Also, don't
use leaves from diseased
plants, or you risk spreading
the disease.

the Heppner Neighborhood
Center have been busily
preparing craft items for the
big Artifactory Sale next
Saturday. These final days
before the sale they are
pricing articles and packing
them to take to the sale. On
Saturday morning they will
arrange them on sales tables
before the sale begins at 10
a.m. Money realized from the
sale of these articles will be
used to buy more craft
supplies for use at the center

O Kinzua
news
Barbara Pike
Thanksgiving in Kinzua and
Camp Five this year was one
to be remembered in years to
come. A cover of snow gave us
a scene from an old fashioned
Christmas card and a five
hour power outage made
many of us wish for an old
fashioned wood cook stove.
Dinner was delayed for
some, while other families had
the meal ready to go on the
table when the lights went out
at 11:30 a.m. No one can
complain after all we had a
dinner to be thankful for,
which is more than many
people have.
Ray and Joyce Cody were in
Kinzua Saturday to finish
moving their things to their
new home in John Day.
Several families went out of
town to spend Thanksgiving
