After the ceremony conducted by Judge D O. at his Hinton Creek home, to share their happiness at a afternoon upstairs in the Heppner Elks Building. The pretty bride was lovely the handsome groom was his tan suit : their six-year-old son with the occasion. The three-tiered, wedding-bell-topped cake which was white with yellow decorations had been prepared by the groom's mother; the reception room was tastefully decorated; vellow daisies predominated in the floral arrangements. Now Heppner has gained Tyson, whom I feel certain know. For once I guessed right about the weather and pushed myself into mowing my grass on Friday afternoon. That evening I squeezed into the standing-room-only, crowded Methodist Church where the Vacation Bible School put on its closing program. Ninety-eight children, from three-year-old through sixth graders, took part, and there were 30 adults who assisted the two directors, John Maas and Steve Tollefson. The doting parents, grandparents and friends found that the' children had really learned considerable knowledge during their five mornings of classes. Saturday morning I stayed sale made myself spend much of the rainy time sewing. Although we've just passed a box with several nice Mothers' Day gifts from the W.W.W. Ill family. One of the gifts was a pretty little plaque from almost-three-year-old Billy which says "To the World's Greatest Grandma." The superlative shocked young. Usually I am rated with or sometimes with the comparative degree. Now I have been thinking about adjectives in their superlative form. The few I feel really qualified to claim are "operator of the best laundromat in Heppner" and a few other uses like "least" and Along with thousands of other East Oregonians I have determined that our most unwanted guests this summer are those insects that love to spend their lives eating and sometimes destroying whole crops. I decided to learn a little more about grasshoppers. I found that they can leap 20 times the length of their bodies (if men had the same ability they could jump about 40 yards.) Grasshoppers live in most not found in the north or south what could they eat constantly In the western United States, grasshoppers damage more than $50 million worth Their greatest natural enemies are certain kinds of flies that lay their eggs in or near grasshopper eggs. After the fly eggs hatch, the newborn flies eat kinds of flies lay their eggs on while the grasshopper is flying. the grasshopper. Oh, what a Before leaving the grasshopper matter I have discovered one thing that these pests are good for. "There is nothing more irresistible to a trout on a lazy summer day than a live grasshopper on a small hook at the end of a very light leader," proclaimed the So, if Dr. Tibbies okays the quotation, I hope many fisherman get busy right away and use Although gluttonous insects are a great concern, right now our county faces an even greater make that the greatest, gravest, most serious situation. Can you imagine this community without many of the county services we've come to expect or without the hospital we have come to depend on? Some people may call me a sucker to even think that anything would be changed : that some services would vanish if the county budget and the hospital budget are defeated next Tuesday. So I am trusting I like to believe the best and hate to imagine the worst. I am determined to vote yes for both budgets. I can not quibble about who does what or the matter of saving a few dollars, I want this community to have the plus factors it has had in services I consider vital. I hope you all carefully read this paper. I was impressed by them. Liz Curtis wrote "There is talk around that if the budget fails someone will come up with the money to keep the hospital open." I am hearing that line, too. philanthropically-ininded citizens this community. I am unable to name them all, but must point out that my friends Amanda Duvall and O.W. Cutsforth have contributed much as have quite a few others. We would not have much of the present hospital, would not have the library and museum, Hager Park, and other worthwhile things if fine private givers had not cared about this community. They have given enough. Some citizens contribute much time and effort as volunteer helpers with county projects, with boards and commissions and auxiliaries.

The EMT's take volunteer calls on the ambulance and will stand by at the Morrow County Fair and Rodeo in August. In June, they attended the Junior Rodeo. This is a volunteer service. In July, a car wash and bake sale is being planned to raise funds to buy new equipment for the ambulance. Last Fall, with monies from a bake sale, the group purchased a trauma kit for the ambulance. The chapter voted to change the meeting night to the first Thursday of the month and to meet with volunteer ambulance drivers. The change was made so both groups can have inservice classes one night instead of two nights a month.
