Around About
By Justine Weatherford
Now the greatest of our holidays is over and many homes
have quieted and are back on a more usual schedule,
although where there are school children and school staff
members or teachers, the return to regular scheduling won't
completely resume until January 3.
How good it is that during Advent season and between
Christmas and the re-opening of school we all are brought in
closer touch with friends and family through personal
visiting and through the exchange of letters and greeting
cards. Did an unusual proportion of the cards you received
this year tress"Peac on Earth"?
About the most unusual greeting I received came from
Tucson, Arizona, from a first cousin, Bruce Johnson, an
engineer, and his wife, Ruth, an artist. I know they want
theire message to reach as many as It can and, therefore, I
am copying their "1982 CHRISTMAS FANTASY" for you.
"Could it be that by some magical means the president was
being manipulated by the FGB or was it only a return to
simple sanity? At any rate, on Christmas Day of 1982,, the
administration in Washington ordered the destruction of all
nuclear weapons. Polaris and Trident submarines were to be
converted to transports for conventional arms.
"Congress gave quick support. After all, they wanted to be
re-elected, and the public had symbolized their desire for
peace by their support of the Nuclear Freeze. Of course, with
many times over enough weapons to destroy the human race,
as well as the (lower?) animals, the freeze concept was only
a beginning.
"A startled world Inundated the U.S, with expressions of
relief, admiration and support. Adversary nations turned
overnight into approving friends. Of course, there was relief,
too, in the Soviet Union, since they were no longer sitting
ducks. But they were now saddled with a vast array of
nuclear missiles for which there was no real excuse.
"They still needed our corn, our wheat, and our technology.
And as for trying to impose their own repressive system on
the U.S., they had had enough on their hands with nearby
Poland and Afghanistan. Nuclear missiles had been useless
before, since any use simply invited mutual suicide. Now,
with no so-called 'defense' needed, nuclear missiles were
more useless than ever.
"Russia had no alternative but to initiate a program of
nuclear arms reduction. Thus was accomplished on Decem
ber 25, 1982, what years of disarmament talks could not
achieve. No one could know what lay ahead. But now there
was hope. Because of a change in one person's thinking,
mankind seemed to be moving in the right direction."
The concluding paragraph on the single-spaced, typewrit
ten page says, "Justine, Christmas Is a time to search and
hope for peace in a world that seemingly has gone bananas
over nuclear arms. So we share our concern with you this
year by means of a departure from the usual. We agree with
Jonathan Scheel, author of 'The Fate of the Earth' who
writes . .because the peril is immediate and unremitting,
every person Is the right person to act and every moment is
the right moment to begin, starting with the present
moment.'"
The other greetings I received were more conventional.
Because I had attended three 50-year school reunions during
the year, I sent out and received more letters and cards than
I have for some years. It has been so good to hear from so
many old and dear friends.
Another special greeting I wish to share came from Let a
Humphreys Thomas who thanked me for writing the article
about the scrapbook she gave to the Morrow County
Museum. She said "It would have been more complete had I
gotten the idea before I destroyed a great deal. I think it
would be something that Jim Thomson, also one of the
Gilliam and Bisbee descendants could do. Their stores were
about the same ages as father's."
Personally. I could almost relinquish the more ancient
custom of the giving of gifts before 1 would consider
foregoing the pleasure of the exchanging of annual
messages. This year, among the most surprising and
delightful gifts I unwrapped were an apron decorated with
original artwork by a six-year-old granddaughter; a Jar of
popcorn, grown and harvested for me by an eight-year-old
grandson: and a jar of bath salts made by a grandsom who
tells me he will become a research scientist.
Gifts which delight me from adult family members are a
sofa pillow with petite, cross-stitched likenesses of every
member of this grandmother's family and a bumper sticker
which I must affix to the back bumper of the station wagon
warning everyone "I brake for garage sales." Tremendously
enjoyed by the weight-gaining me and my guests were some
super edible gifts.
At our county schools both girls and boys basketball games
are providing much excitement. Be sure you mark your new
calendar on January 11 and 13 (Tuesday and Thursday
evenings) to remind yourself that Jane Rawlins' drama
students will present three one-act plays. Mrs. Rawlins feels
that the stories the plays will tell will be generally appealing.
Hopefully, play-night attendance will improve next year.
I think 1983 portends good things for Morrow County.
Along the river maybe the port area will see continued
expansion and improvement and how great if some of the
cost can be paid for by gold dregged out of the mighty
Columbia.
The new Heppner Development Corporation seems off to a
busy beginning. We hope that it will be able to stimulate
growth in the business community. We all realize that
tourism is such a growing, big business. We all need to help
the corporation promote visiting, stopping and shopping in
south Morrow Co.
Each day now our nights get a little shorter and our
daytimes increase. Friday is the last day of this old year. It
has brought many sad and glad changes to our area. One of
the happiest changes came in lone where the Jim Swanson
family suddenly, very recently, changed from three to four
with the Christmas Eve arrival of a daughter, Adrienne
Elaine.
We surely hope everyone wiil see the beginning of a really
good year this Saturday. Happy New Year!
