Smallwood family visits from Satellite Beach Mr. and Mrs, Jfrsse Small wood from" Satellite Beach, Florida (near Cape Kennedy) recently spent ten days in Heppner where they were house guests of Barbara and Dan James. Each day the Smallwoods made 3 or 4 trips to the hospital nursing home to visit with his mother, Leona Small wood, a longtime resident there. Last year when the Small- woods visited here, they became close friends with Barbara and her family. They invited Mardel, 14, to return to Florida to visit in their home which includes Jesse, Trina and their children Lisa, 16, and Richard 19. During their visit here, the James took them to Cutsforth Park for a family picnic and Barbara took them to visit Timberline Lodge before they flew away with Mardel. Vacancies expected in Adult Aide Program The L.A.P.P program at Heppner Elementary School will have-vacancies for adult volunteer's in the classroom. The adult aide program is designed to provide opportun ities for more individual attention to students either through volunteers working with individuals (such as listening to students read) or helping the teacher with recordkeeping, filing or mat erial preparation, freeing the teacher to spend more time with students. Volunteers are needed to spend one or two hours a weak helping. A variety of situations are available ranging from kin dergarten through junior high ages. People who have worked with the program in past years volunteers and teach ers, know how much students benefit from the help of L.A.P.P. aides. If you would like to help or want more information about the program, please call Heppner Elementary, 676-9128 or Linda Shaw, 676-5283.

SERVING AktAS i '.VHELim SHt'KMAN AND E GILLIAM COUNTIES Mr. and Mrs. Monty Stook ey, Heppner, will hold an open house, Saturday, August 18 to display their completed 8 sided wooden house located on the hill above the Kinzua mill. The rustic wooden structure constructed of lodgepole pine has been a dream of the couple for several years and two years ago, Stookey, manager of Kinzua's plywood opera tions, designed a model of the home he envisioned. Aided by family members (the Stookeys have four sons, 17, two 15 year olds and a 7 year old) Monty sawed most of the logs flat on both sides used in the construction with a chainsaw, split the Western Larch shakes. A 4 ft. center log in the living room supports the roof and logs hand shaved by the Stbokeys branches off the center support like the spokes on a wheel. "I was going to build an A-frame but it didn't belong next to a wheat field," Stookey said. The cabin-like structure has a loft which is used by one of the sons as a bedroom and the remaining rooms radiate around the living room, set off by a wood fireplace which provides the main heat source to the home with electric heat as an auxiliary source. Ther mopane windows have been installed to retain the home's heat. Building the octagonal log house has been a family operation with the Stookey 's sons providing a great deal of the manpower. Logs making up the roof were peeled by hand with a draw knife. Left to be completed is the kitchen ceiling. A serving bar has been constructed the full length of the kitchen for easy serving to family and guests. Besides the log cabin, the Stookeys have built a small sawmill. When they started building the cabin in dose view of the Iieppner-L. gton highway, they had several onlookers interested in the unusual construction of an 8 sided log cabin. The couple's open house on August 18 will allow the public to view the struc ture's exterior and interior.
