Book, wish to extend to the Heppner Gazette-Times staff, our heartfelt thanks for the fine cooperation you have given us in this project. The stories printed and the other bits of information given the readers have made our job much easier. To all those who took the time to write these-stories. Offering services? To the editor: In answer to Charlene Pa pineau's letter to the editor in your May 19, 1983 issue, I would like to know if you are offering your services to babysit for the many children who would otherwise attend graduation ceremonies? Have you ever tried to get a baby sitter in either lone or Hep pner on graduation night? Should the brothers and sisters, nieces and nephews, children of friends of the graduation class be kept home from this important night? After all, they are members of the family and community, too. I will agree that parents should really try hard to keep their children quiet and if they are crying they should take them out of the room, but what about the unruly adults who continue to whisper, laugh, snicker, cough, etc. during the Money grant on To the editor: A group of us got together and were discussing county roads and how they're being maintained. We were ques tioning the amount of money being spent to maintain the old Rock Creek Road behind the old Jim Hams place and through Don McEUigott's. This road is used probably 25 times a year, and mostly by the same vehicle. We think more money should be spent on other county roads, such as Willow Creek, upper Rhea Creek and Balm Fork, to name a few. It makes us wonder, since a(BB25jJ!5S2SjjSSSJJJ Thomas F.

Delpha Jones Ruth McCabe Jean Nelson speeches, awards and handing out of diplomas? Who is going to take them out of the room? While we're talking distur bances, what about all the picture taking that goes on on graduation night? This is dis turbing to some but who would dream of taking away this privilege to record in pictures what these students and parents have worked so hard for? I think the children, the many parents, friends, and other relatives, the picture taking and applauding of speeches, awards and diplo mas are all a very important part of graduation night. If you don't feel you can handle the noise or it irritates you so much, you have a choice of staying home. Helen M. Heideman Star Route 2 lone.

If the purpose of maintain ing county roads is to make them more accessible to the public, then why lock such county roads to keep out hun ters and fishermen, etc.? Thanks again Don for really opening our lifelong fishing areas.
