'-v i - SIX The llcppnci- (iaette-Times; Heppner, Oregon. nThursdav.'' Kclininiv L'S, i!xt 'J . . v-i IV. 'J "3 W ill) Justine tithoi lout What beautiful colored pictures photographer Delbert Piper, the Lexington storekeeper, has made of animal and plant life in Morrow County. Especially exciting are a series of pictures of young hawks from almost the moment of their hatching until their young adulthood. Del showed two Rototrays of his slides last Saturday evening to a small but appreciative group of viewers at the Seventh Day Adventist Church. His pictures revealed such careful composition and projected Del's real love of beauty found in simple, natural settings. Only a couple of his 200 pictures were taken outside this county. The casual visitor, strolling through our towns and driving the main roads of the county, could never imagine the beauty and excitement Del's camera has found. Mentioning casual visitors, there were quite a few in Heppner last Saturday for the Elks Annual. Main Street looked great with all flags flying and extra cars parked everywhere. I had a rather unusual experience during the middle of that day. As I sat at my home desk, still in my house slippers, I attended an executive committee meeting of one of Oregon's largest women's organizations, the United Methodist Women. The many women in locations from Oregon's southern border to the Columbia and including several Idaho locations who answered the roll call had been well prepared with a complete agenda and several pertinent documents. The presiding officer was in her home in Payette and the secretary at home in Madras. This was not my first telephone conference meeting. Delpha Jones and I have participated in several of them conducted by the Eastern Oregon Region of the Oregon Lung Association, which is why I had recommended the system to the U.M.W. What a time, money and energy saver telephone conference meetings are. Even though many telephone workers were on strike, those who implemented the meeting were very courteous and helpful. I expect that many more organizations in cold, northerly states will soon be using their telephones this way. The conference lasted one and one-half hours and accomplished a great deal. Everyone seemed satisfied with the result and pleased with the great convenience. When memorial services were held for the Rev. Fred M. YVeatherford at Arlington last week, members of his family filled the entire main section of (lie Nazarene Church. The Weatherfords have lived in north Gilliam County into six generations. Fred was of the second generation. Although the family has always farmed, many have served their county and their state, including Oregon's first native-born governor. Earl Snell. several legislators and judges. Fred authored five books. His brother Mark, several nephews and a niece have also had books published. By now almost everyone who has telephone service has received a new 1980-81 directory. In comparing the new edition with the Newport Light on its cover with the older issue, several differences are noted. The lists of names may total about the same, but it seems there are fewer H, L and S listings than last year. Boardman has more listings than it had last year. The area postal zip code numbers that for many years were near the front of the yellow pages have been moved into the middle of the color section. " ' ' ' W ": -t -I . - jtJip-. -''. w v..

The English know them as Glamorgan Sausages. And they season them, of course, with their own original Worcestershire sauce for true piquant flavor. They serve them as an hors d'oeuvre, savoury or meat accompani ment. We think they'd be delectable for brunch served with broiled tomatoes and bacon. BRITISH CHEESE PATTIES 1 teaspoon dry mustard 5 teaspoons water, divided 4 cups soft bread crumbs, divided 23 cup grated Swiss cheese 23 cup grated Cheddar cheese 14 cup minced scallions (green onions) 4 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley 14 teaspoon ground black pepper 4 eggs, separated 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons original Worcestershire sauce 14 cup salad oil In a small bowl combine mustard with 1 teaspoon water; set aside for 10 minutes to develop flavor. In a large bowl combine 2 cups of the bread crumbs with Swiss cheese, Cheddar cheese, scallions, parsley, black pepper, reserved mustard, egg yolks, Worcestershire sauce and remaining 4 teaspoons water. Divide mixture into 12 equal portions; form each portion into a patty. In a shallow bowl lightly beat egg whites. Place remain ing 2 cups bread crumbs into another bowl. Dip each patty into the egg whites, then into the bread crumbs, coating thoroughly. In a large skillet heat oil until hot. Add patties; brown on both sides, about 5 minutes. Serve with broiled tomatoes and bacon, if desired. Yield: 12 patties. lone teacher writes of years in classroom Senior Citizens Next week the senior din ners in Heppner will be served in the new dining room beside the Heppner Neighborhood Center on West Willow Street. The long-standing and plea sant use of the Heppner Elks dining room has ended. The cooks have had to pack all the food they have pre pared in the Neighborhood Center kitchen over to the Elks kitchen plus their uten sils and paper items each Tuesday and Wenesday. Now they should feel that their work will be eased a little. Thos who come to socialize and to dine each of the two evenings may feel a little crowded in the smaller, new room . Each diner is asked to take along his or her own dinner plate because there is not a commercial-type dishwasher in the neighborhood center kitchen and so many plates would be difficult to handle. The center believes it has enough silver and cups. Con tributions of some plates or platters and serving dishes and large serving spoons would be appreciated, the Play to open at Blue Mountain "Long Days Journey Into Night", the story of a troubled family, will open at Blue Mountain Community College today at 8 p.m. in the Pioneer Hall Theatre.

ORANGES are bargain priced because this year's crop is very large. GRAPE FRUIT, too, is a good buy. This is the time of year when the fruit is particularly sweet and juicy. Higher prices for BANA NAS are expected to continue. We are getting smaller ship ments because of political unrest and labor problems in the producing countries. Hothouse RHUBARB is available. Expensive but deli cious is this colorful, tasty fruit great for pies, cobbler and sauce. APPLES should be coming out of controlled atmosphere storage very soon which could mean a little increase in the cost. There is an abundance of top quality fresh vegetables com ing to market. HEAD LET TUCE is a budget buy. and all of the leafy vegetables offer good values. ASPARAGUS, which is still very high, should be trending down a bit within the next week. Asparagus is never an inexpensive vege table because much hand labor is required in the harvesting. Also the, season is short . Cost of BROCCOLI and CAULIFLOWER should trend down within the next week as increased supplies come to market. CABBAGE and CAR ROTS are good buys from the standpoint of both cost and nutrition. Fresh MUSHROOMS are expensive mainly because the demand is greater than the supply. CUCUMBERS and PEPPERS from Mexico are reasonably priced. TOMA TOES from Mexico are not as expensive as they were earlier in the season. DAFFODILS have made their appearance in some supermarkets, giving the hope that spring is just around the corner. PORK remains plentiful and economical. Suppliers say pork is now capturing a considerably larger percent age of the meat business. TURKEY and CHICKEN are both plentiful. Specials are frequent. Fresh SEAFOOD has been in better supply this year because of larger boats which can get out in bad weather. Fresh SNAPPER is in most markets and SOLE is often available. OYSTERS are very good quality. Oysters have a packaging date on the jar, and if they are kept properly refrigerated quality is maintained for two weeks. CRAB is less plentiful than it was and prices are up a bit. However, there is still god fresh crab in the markets.
