Cont. from page 4 Money realized from the sale of crafted items is used to purchase materials that are used in the craft programs at Pioneer Memorial Hospital and on Thursdays in the Heppner Center. The remodeling being done in the space beside the Heppner Center by building owner Herman Green and master carpenter John Woods is attracting attention. I asked Mr. Green what they are building and he said, "I think it may be a dining hall." Menus for Morrow County meal sites for the next week include: At Irrigon on Mon day, July 23, tomato juice, hot dinner sandwiches, mashed potatoes and gravy, tossed green salad with dressing, buttered carrots and peas and applesauce cake. At Heppner on Tuesday, July 24, the menu will be about the same, but it lists peaches and cookies for dessert. On Wednesday, July 25, diners at lone and Heppner will be offered turkey bulgar casserole, stewed tomatoes, pear energy salad, raisin-bran muffins with jelly and cherry upsidedown cake with topping. Some of us are eager to learn about energy salad- may be it is a new recipe from President Carter's kitchen. Good-bye to Heppner's Bernie By Justine Weatherford Not long ago one of Heppner's Main Street landmarks disappeared. The very large, rather old, mostly while dog named Bernie that often lounged around the tavern and restaurant side of the street in the morning shade and then moved to the west side when the afternoon sun warmed up, had his life end over a week ago. I regularly met Bernie in the Turner, Van Marter & Bryant insurance office. Not long ago while I stopped there, I heard Howard say, "Looks like old Bernie wants in" and the door was opened so that the big dog could enjoy the air-cooled quarters with his friends Howard and Laverne. When I had my pup Tippy, I often walked him to the Ed Gonty home in the evening. There we visited with old Bernie, on the Gonty porch if it wasn't too cold or in the house with their dogs Ralph and Cookie when Heppner was in its deep-freeze period. I understand that kind-hearted merchants Katie and Buz Lynch of Cal's and Chuck Marquardt of Bucknum's on the east-side of Heppner's Main Street helped to see that Bernie had plenty of food these last several years. It was Katie Lynch who took him for his final veterinary care when he got into his terminal illness. Bernie has no known immediate survivors. He was left to Main Street when his young owner-master David Cox died several years ago. Now Bernie's passing leaves this whole community as his survivors. We all miss you, old Bernie. SERVICE-Faster than a speeding bullet. COMMITMENT-More powerful than a locomotive. ENTHUSIASM -Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound. We're taking a different way of looking at a very serious idea. The new ways we can help your savings investments to return a high and profitable yield. In fact, the highest rate allowed by law. A higher return than you can get at any bank. Look over our new ideas below. Lower time requirements. Lower minimum deposits required.

OUR NEW FOUR YEAR MONEY MARKET CERTIFICATE. This high yield certificate is based on U.S. Treasury Securities. As they fluctuate and rise in the marketplace, so will your rate. Check with us on a monthly basis to determine what the rate is. When you pur chase your certificate, the rate is guaran teed for the full four year term. This idea will also pay .25 more than you can earn at a bank. NEW LOWER MINIMUMS. Our new minimum deposit amount for any of our certificate accounts, excluding the six month Money Market Certificate, is as low as $5. This allows you never before experienced access to the higher yield savings certificates previously reserved for high minimum amounts. LOWER RESTRICTIONS AND PENALTIES. For early withdrawals from certificate accounts, you'll find much easier and flexi ble rules governing withdrawals. SIX MONTH MONEY MARKET CERTIFICATE. Still highly regarded, our Money Market Certificate continues to provide an op timum return value. The minimum time is 6 months with a $10,000 deposit. There is an interest penalty for early withdrawal.
