An innocent event
To the editor:
Having just read Corrine
Miles letter in the Gazette
concerning the picking of daf
fodils from our church lawn. I
agreed with most of what she
said. I do feel that because one
of our church members
(whose identity is unknown)
reprimanded these children in
a way that was frightening to
them, all our church member
should not be addressed as if
we were a party to this. Were
it not for the letter, we would
probably have never known.
Whether one is Lutheran.
Methodist. Roman Catholic,
hpiscopalian. etc. I'm sure
there would be differing opin
ions within each denomination
from the idea that "children
should be free to do as they
please" to "flowers are to look
at. not to pick." As in every
thing there is a "somewhere in
between." Children do need to
be taught to ask before picking
flowers as it is such a natural
Suggests transferring
to lone School
To the editor:
On Monday night. April 18.
there was a large group of
lone people at the County
School Board meeting, ex
pressing their concern about
seemingly excessive budget
cuts directed at a reduction in
teaching staff.
Our democracy allows pub
lic discussion. Out of deeply
felt expressed concerns, there
is always a broadening of
awareness. One of the
thoughts expressed had to do
with who attends school. When
we became a county district, it
was decided that we not estab
lish boundaries with the ex
press intent of allowing free
movement of students within
the distict.
We like it
To the editor:
We have been living here a
year now and many have
asked what do you really think
of Heppner and community?
Quite honestly, we came to
this little town with some
anxiety, even though we had
grown up in a small city in
North Dakota we had gotten
quite used to the advantages
of a larger community.
With all sincerity we can say
we like it here. The warmth
and acceptance by the people

thing for them to do. We even
had a Sunday school lesson on
this awhile back which took
both sides into considera
tion . older adult and child.
I'm sorry that these little
girls were frightened by an
adult that probably came on
stronger than he or she meant
to. Possibly he or she should
have talked to the parents
inside! I'm sure that in any
church the same incident
might have occurred ..
evervone has their ups and
downs. I also understand that
love and the mother person in
Corrine caused her to react
the way she did. We've all
been there! Next time maybe
iust a letter to the adult
involved would be more in
order, so the entire commun
ity would not he involved in
such an innocent event. Hope
there are no hard feelings
anvwhere!

If appears to me that the
prime assets of the lone
School should be promoted;
Readv access to an excellent
athletic program which in
cludes eight-man football.
There is personal instruction
available, ready access to
computers and an experien
ced staff with an excellent
record of teaching success.
I would like to suggest that
parents who live within rea
sonable commuting distance
of Tone take a look at and
consider transferring their
children to the lone School.
Sincerely.

here
here has been heartwarming.
Recently, we had an occasion
to be especially grateful. We
had lost our keys in an unusual
manner and behold they were
turned in by a kind and
responsible person. Thank
you! A small thing maybe, but
I wonder how many times that
happens in a big town.
Just wanted all to know
Heppner is a great place to
live and we're glad to be here.
