FOUR The Heppner Gacette-Time, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, March 27, 1980 ilh Juslinr WrMherfoid It was so good to see Heppner's three elementary school winners in the Easter Seal Shootout on TV last Sunday afternoon. Penny Connor, Heidi Samples and Marion McMillan were all able to introduce themselves and to state distinctly that they were winners from Heppner. Then KPTV's Master of Ceremonies Mike Donahue said, "How great to have Heppner so well represented here." The three appeared on the Portland segment of the big national fund-raising telethon to help the handicapped and the Easter Seal program. Many county folks attended the open house at Del's Market in Lexington last Friday and Saturday. What a great job the Pipers have done in enlarging, decorating and stocking their Country Store. The nice old heating stoves, many antique items, Phillis' tole painting, Mark's photographs and the hostessing by Janette and Sheri kept friendly, proud paterfamilias Delbert smiling from ear to ear. Last Thursday's arrival of spring did not eliminate the cold, however it did stimulate some folks to work in their yards. Neighbors Harold and Ruby Beckett worked on the annual preparation of their garden; Steve Brownfield did a tremendous job of pruning the large tree in front of his home ; City Administrator Marshall Lovgren neatly mowed his lawn. v. "How to Prosper Daring the Coming Bad Year" by Howard Ruff, a best-selling 1979 paparback, has now been -placed in the Heppner Public Library. It seems like "must" reading. It's so good to read over and over that smart citizens are those who forsake cities and get settled in small towns. The author declares that money invested in small towns will reap ' much larger returns than money put in large cities which, - Ruff says, "are completely at the mercy of a disintegrating culture." He feels that cities may become "welfare jungles" .and that the great ghettos will be in worse shape as time progresses and the numbers of police and firemen decline, and all city services price themselves beyond affordability. Economist Ruff was early in advising that families buy gold and silver (bags of coins pre-1965), and there is some possibility that his repeated advice may have helped push the prices of the two metals up. He (a Mormon) also advocates that every family should stock up on staple goods (keep a year's supply on hand) because he foresees production problems and many transportation difficulties ahead. Senior Seniors from south Morrow County traveled to Irrigon by bus for the bi-monthly advi sory council meeting Monday.
