m w i m mt n mmt Around About s T y Justine Weatlwrford . Another busy week Just raced past. Somehow I managed to , ' eat most of my meals in very good company and to enjoy the , , ' excellent cooking done by others all week. Chronologically, oil Monday, the Garden Club's politick dinner was lovely. On Tuesday there was a good lunch at the Chamber of Commerce meeting and then a delightful dessert was prepared by Lorena Jones for the Bookworms gathering that afternoon. On Wednesday noon the Senior Citizen noon meal and i program honoring local veterans was outstanding. Program chairman for the seniors, Anna Mae Steagall, has really been working at arranging especially enjoyable weekly programs. After that lunch and program I had arranged to have snow tires put on the car while I went to a dentist's office to learn first-hand about the extraction of a tooth. Some fun! About 50 years ago my dear parents shelled out plenty to have that molar repaired and covered with gold by a dentist in Portland. Now I had the badly decayed tooth pulled. That night I just warmed up a little soup for my solitary meal. On Thursday, along with other from this area, I drove to Uklah to attend the final rites for Terry Blevins. Before we left Heppncr, Irene Swanson and I stopped at the corner of Church and Gale streets to take a quick look at the first-floor apartment that the Lutheran Ladies are diligently making ready for the refugee family their church expects to arrive soon. Our drive to Uklah went well; we shared a noon meal in the car outside the closed gates of frost and snow decorated Battle Mountain Park. It was good to find the Community Church In Uklah completely filled for the Blevins service, which assured us that E.V. (she was Eleanor Virginia Gonty ) and her daughters have many concerned and helpful friends nearby. Because the afternoon sun shown so brightly Inspite of the chilly temperature, we decided to make the drive home from Uklah to Heppner over the newer and shorter mountain route. The winter wonderland of our Blue Mountains was lovely, pure and clean and glistening white. We found the road mostly very safe driving, but were cautious as we came very slowly down the icy Coal Mine Hill. That evening Irene Swanson Invited me to share another of her nicely cooked dinners in her beautiful Heppner apartment. On Friday, I had morning business with the Social Security representative at the Neighborhood Center. I had received several tetters recently asking me for details about my late husband. Bill's account. So I went to the center laden with official papers and found out that the Pendleton office had somehow erred In completing Its file records about Bill. So I had the documents with me from w hich the very kindly lady representative was able to gather the missing information. Friday evening I joined the dining room full of Harold Kerr admirers and friends at the Morrow County Wheat League's annual dinner. Because of my poor hearing I try to plan ahead to get to some functions early so that I can sit where I am sure I will hear everything. I managed to sit directly in front of the evening's speaker. Remarkably, friendly Harold knew the complete names 01 almost every individual In the room. He leaned forward to ask me the names of one couple, the Gerald Piersons, who came to Heppner after the Kerrs left here. It was good to hear Harold mention Norm Goetze and Kirby Brumfield, both of whom I knew during their student days at OSU. I - knew them because both of them participated in speech activities and attended debates and speech contests which I often attended, along with my former husband Paul X. Knoll, who was the university debate coach. Harold's remarks about not becoming corrupted by campus politics brought back memories of my years In Corvallis where I got a little taste of departmental struggles, of annual budgeting and of campus politics generally. I really enjoyed the Wheat League dinner and program and felt so proud of all the county folks who participated. On Saturday, I was again rescued from my own cooking by Adelle La Trace, who invited me to attend the Degree of Honor Lodge's annual family and' friends Thanksgiving Dinner. Those ladies claim to have some of the best cooks In the county in their group, and I would never disagree. Their big collection of food was outstanding. I was told that the well-known former professional cook, Eleanor Gonty, prepared the delicious turkey and dressing. Everything Eleanor cooks always tastes wonderful to me. The after dinner program of colored slides of some of Ed and Eleanor Gonty's travels were enjoyed by all. It was nice to know ahead that I was dining out on Saturday, because that day, along with friends Ida Farra and Som jet Thongdy, I spent considerable time going around looking at the amazing collections of things displayed for sale at the three big Saturday pre-used goods sales. When I firsf began going to yard sales after Bill ani I moved Into Heppner he used to tell me "You shouldn't be going to those sales you should be having one." Yet I am so interested in the articles displayed and usually can't resist buying several items. Now this week I have taken up cooking at home again. I did enjoy the refreshments after church Sunday morning but didn't go to the Singspiration at the Methodists Church that evening, which was, I hear, well attended. I want to admit I did heat up my oven last Friday, just to bake a few cookies which I sent to the Singspiration. So I knew the old stove was still in working order when I got to using it again this week.
