By JUSTINE WKATHKRFOKO Last Sunday afternoon a most attentive group of people was fascinated by the wedding of history and theater entitled "The Northwest Woman." This one-woman play featured Eugene actress and teacher Jan Van Boskirk performing vignettes narrated by Univer sity of Oregon history profes sor Edwin Bingham. The effective setting for the program was well done. The use of a large, antique-looking mirror frame around the screen on which old, back ground photos were projected really enhanced the show. Van Boskirk gave believ able portrayals of four un usual women in the historic development of the Northwest and of Oregon. Dorothy Ve lasco was the producer and playwright for the program made possible by a grant from the Oregon Committee for the Humanities.

It is easy to make the point." As he continued, he read "Appropriately, the first woman of distinction in the written history of the Oregon Country was an Indian. Saca gawea (yes. this is now the accepted pronunciation, in stead of Sacajawea, the way most of us learned it.) Inci centally, the correction in pronunciation is a tiny ex ample of the constant efforts of historians and anthropolo gists to uncover the authentic past."

'Econo-Eating' By MOMNE STRODE Extension Home Economist Oregon State University (Editor's note: During the next 12 months, the Oregon State University Extension Service will be giving special emphasis to a program called "Econo-Eating." The purpose is to give food shopping and food preparation tips to help people stretch their food dol lars.) The battle of the budget is certainly a challenge "in to day's world. And the food budget is right up there on the front lines. As other expenses raise and seem less flexible, we try to make up the differ ence by cutting food costs or at least holding the line. We all have to eat which means we all have to shop for food. Many of us shop more frequently than needed be cause we don't plan ahead. Planning saves you money. It helps assure that you'll eat until the next planned shopp ing trip-which is becoming a primary goal as budgets get tighter. Here are some specific steps to help you get more for your food dollar: . 1. Read the food ads in your local paper. This, is usually a midweek issue. If you don't take the paper regularly, it's well worth the price to buy that issue from the news stand. Browse through the paper looking for food specials, coupons and special promo tional ideas. The stores are doing battle, too, so they're getting creative in trying to get your business. 2. Plan your menus from these ads. If you actually take the time to write down menus youll save money and time in the long run. If you haven't ever done this, start planning your main meals and just stock up on a variety of breakfast and lunch items. Having written menus helps We Have wxj on W Eastern Star officers installed in Heppner On Monday evening, Ruth Locust Chapter No. 32, Order of the Eastern Star, held formal? installation cere monies for the 1982-83 officers, reported a spokesperson for the order.

Es ther; Rubv Becket, Martha; you with the "blahs." "thaws" and can even add to your creativity. The "blahs," are those times when you just can't get inspired about fixing onemore meal. You can't think of anything to fix. no one will give you suggestions and you're missing a key ingre dient in the things that do come to mind. The "thaws" happen when you start thinking about din ner at 5 p m. and everything in the freezer is frozen exactly as it should be which makes it harder to fix dinner. Menus help you with your creativity because you can actually pick out a new recipe that sounds good and make sure you have all the ingre dients needed. That way you don't get bored with the same dishes all the time. It's also good for your family to face a few new dishes, they shouldn't be getting in a rut either. 3. Now that you know what you're going to fix, make a shopping list. If you're shop ping at more than one store, group the sale items and their prices under each store name. That way if you run into one of the items that's cheaper you can make the purchase with confidence, i Have coupons and special promotional offers ready when you're at the check stand so you can get checked through easily. You need to develop a system that works for you. Some people use an envelope for each store, others get an organizer that's similar to a check book with categor ies and some just staple the coupons to the list for that store. 4. Stick to your list. It's good to watch for unadvertised specials but try to avoid a lot of impulse buying. If other family members help you shop, enlist them in the battle to hold the line on the food budget, too.
