" r David and April Hilton Sykeg, Publisher Spruce up, ; visitors are ' The Morrow County Fair and Rodeo is coming upon us very r soon now, and as usual we will be having many visitors coming to our town for the activities. A local woman who stopped by our office recently, related an incident which should remind us of a responsibility we all should have during this time of the year. She told of sitting in a local cafe and overhearing a conversation between two people from out of town. It seems the visitors felt that Heppner looked a little "unkept." Generally, the town looks pretty good, however, in the rush of summer activities maintenance csn be pushed aside or forgotten. Check around your home or business in the coming week for weeds and scrapes of paper. A good sprucing up will leave a favorable impression on our visitors. Letters To The Editor i A worthwhile investment, a successful project To the editor: I wish to thank the staff and my students from the CETA program for thier two years of service within the community of Heppner.

Today we are only $7,000 -short of paying all debts incur--red by our project. Perhaps as you read this article you may feel financial ly motivated to help us com plete our financial commit ment by picking up your phone and giving a Lions Club mem ber or myself a call.

Your investment in the Hep pner Swimming Pool is an investment in a worthwhile project for the citizens and the youth in our community. Our cost for oil to heat the pool this summer was under $30, that is not too bad com pared to a $2,300 oil bill for last year's swimming season. The technical and architec tural design of our project and its physical environment ex ceeds similar concepts that have been developed recently in the Northwest.
