Doesn't everybody in this county feel proud of lone High School's state championship football team? How exciting how gratifying! When pup Tip and I returned from our Thanksgiving visiting last Saturday afternoon we came from the Umatilla Bridge across the still snowy Bombing Range Road and into an almost deserted Heppner. As I walked through the stores here looking in vain for my lucky G-T Christmas merchants' number, I soon realized that many citizens had gone to lone to watch the great Cardinals outscore the boys from MacLaren School. Seems like my last several columns have turned into reports of my travels through snow. My third brush with this seasonal adversary began during our heavy snowfall on Thanksgiving morning. Good friend Frances Williams advised me from Lexington "Don't start out be sensible, stay home." But I decided that Tip and I and the prepared turkey and. fixings would start north with the idea that we could return home if the situation warranted. After making our way slowly and carefully across the icy blue bridge at Kennewick we left the snowfall and road ice behind and found eastern Washington's well-patrolled highways easily travelable right to the Cheney address that was our destination. Our waiting young family was extra pleased that we arrived before suppertime as they were thinking they might be eating eggs or hamburger instead of turkey. Our trip home went well, however it became less pleasant driving after we crossed Mother Columbia into the fog and lingering snow of our own area. Tip proved to be a good long-distance traveling companion sleeping like a baby most of the five hours of travel time we needed on Thursday and Saturday. Now I am promising myself that I shall stay home for at least a few weeks. I hear that those who stayed in town over Thanksgiving and joined together at All Saints Church found more delicious food than they needed. Friends report that not as many showed up as were hoped for and anyone who stayed at home and felt lonesome was foolish. Here is a bit of social news I have just gleaned. On Monday, Nov. 20. in Bermuda, Miss Celia Currin of the Wall Street Journal and Mr. Harvey Katz a Long Island businessman, were married with Celia's sister Annmarie Currin of the Portland business community in attendance. The newlyweds will live in New York City. Our community was saddened by the deaths of two courageous women on Thanksgiving morning. Vivian Hayes of Upper Rhea Creek and Effie Johnson, who left here several years ago to spend her last years near her son Bill and family at The Dalles, both leave their families and many friends feeling thankful that they had been privileged to have known them. Occasionally we hear of a very practical and helpful household hint. A most excellant homemaker friend tells us that when she takes bread out of her freezer and finds it showing ice crystals that after she opens the package she inserts a paper napkin which quickly absorbs the moisture and restores the bread to its original fresh form. That sounds easy doesn't it? It is so pleasing to move through Heppner's gayly-lighted streets and view the well-decorated store windows just now. Unfortunately two business places suffered harsh treatment last weekend when the front door at Cal's Tavern and the large window at the Sears store were broken by vandals. It seems too many odd persons enjoy the tinkle of broken glass. I've complained often about the mass of broken bottles strewn about town. We love to have good publicity about our county reach out into the world such as the great performance by the lone footballers but we're very distressed to hear that a recent Portland TV newscast told about vandals shooting down powerline insulators "south of Heppner." We surely don't need vandalism at any time of the year, and not especially as we approach the season which glorifies divine and human love. Several years ago I most reluctantly stopped putting out Christmas lights around the front of the house because for two years I found the bulbs were taken out of the sockets and were smashed on the nearby sidewalks. This seems so senseless so unAmerican yet, I guess, I am gradually having to learn that some Americans are prone to doing very unreasonable things like the over 900 of them who took their own lives in Guyana. How frightening! Here is a final reminder of next Saturday's big AAUW Artifactory at St. Patrick's Hall between 10 a.m. and about 4p.m. or so. Plan to be there. Pie and coffee will be served; Santa will appear; great gift wares prepared by skilled craftspersons will be on sale along with a supply of used books that are being collected at Heppner's four service sta tions. I'll be seeing you there! 2 2 S S 'i a s s printing 2 676-9228 2 2 A Sampler Makes The Holidays Special. rr2L f : S g .0 , "'X ' "V - - Register To KODAK INSTAMATIC 28 CAMERA OUTFIT mWiM warn On Saturday, Oct. 21, at St. Anthony's Catholic Church, St. I'elor, Kansas, Kileen Kinderknecht and Roger P.

Member Services Representative of Columbia Basin Klectric Cooperative, presented a discussion on Energy Saving at the lone Topic Club meeting November 14. in the home of Frances Carlson with Loree Hubbard assisting.

Colo. degrees: turn furnace down at night (each degree it is lowered will save 2 per cent); check doors and windows for air leakage: be sure fireplace does not lose heat from your house: have good insulation. The Oregon Department of Energy is encouraging Ore gonians to conserve energy by putting out publications and giving money incentives, such as tax credits and refunds. Proper insulation is empha sized. There are specific standards for thermal insula tion for residential construc tion. Some of the most common types of insulating material are foam, rockwool, fiberglass and vermiculite. The larger their "R" number the better their insulating ability. One must also con sider the cost, the ease of installation and the change that comes with age.
