They have met and seriotiHly dinciwRH this mat ter. They are considering trying different hours for meals for a while, such as noontime or 5 p.m. instead of the long-standing 4:30 p.m. time. Mary has urged all seniors to invite their senior neighbors to please come and enjoy the visiting and programs on Tuesday and Wednesday. Some persons have apparent ly refused to come because they feel that the meals are related to charity or Welfare. This is not so. The meals have been arranged by the federal government to mak life more enjoyable for older citizens, many of whon. live alone. It has been proven that eating with friends and visiting helps one's health and prolongs one's life. Those older citizens who do not support this mealsite program may rob some who really need it and value it very much. It is true that some of the foods prepared come from surplus supplies which the government purchases, but what a good way to use these purchased supplies. In our county many supplies are donated by generous citizens. Everyone who attends a senior meal needs to sign the register as he or she enters the dining room-so that a count of the number served can be kept. Each one is encouraged to make an "at door" cash contribution toward the cost of the meal. Sometimes gener ous donations pay most of the cost of the meals. Many programs that are most helpful to the older citizens are explained and discussed at meal times. Those who do not attend miss much helpful information and much in the friendship and joy to be derived from visiting with others of their age group. It is so hoped that attend ance, especially on Tuesday in Heppner. will increase very soon, as if the number doesn't average 70 soon, this mealsite will have to serve only one meal each week.
