(Kditor's note: (he following
article is the second and final
installment about a two-week
bus trip to the Ozarks that
several local women joined):
Those women from thin area
who traveled to the Ozarks
began their second week away
from home with a tremendous
Sunday, Oct. 9, They were
transported on the tour bus
from their motel at Branson,
Missouri, through the lovely
Ozark country, across the
Arkansas border Into the un
usual hillside community of
Kureka Springs which began
its growth during Indian times
because of its 15 springs. By
JR79, it became a great health
resort and the railroad
began bringing multitudes
there which stimulated great
population growth. Its popula
tion has gone up and down
between 25,000 and about 2,500
through the years, and now
tourism and several outstand
ing attractions are the main
support of the economy In this
delightful community where
none of the streets intersect
and where many well-maintained
Victorlam homes and
other structures are sitll
nicely maintained.
After several hours of free
time to stroll around the
shopping area and to find a
place to lunch, the tourists
re-boarded their bus with a
qualified local guide who led
them about the area. High
lights of that guided tour
included a visit to the sensa
tional glass chapel a little way
from town where a short
service and lovely music was
appreciated., Then a look
around town was most en
trancingthe old railroad
station, the spring-water bot
tling works, the old hotel and
unusual Victorian homes were
pointed out.
Kveryone left the bus at the
St. Elizabeth of Hungary
Koman Catholic Church which
is entered through its bell
tower and where everyone
preceded down to the church
which blends elements of
three types of architectural
design, namely Byzantine,
Romanesque and Gothic.
From the lovely gardens out
side this church it was easy to
view the great Christ of the
Ozarks statute which was our
next stop. After a close look at
the striking statue, the tour
ists were shown the large
outdoor theater where they
would come to attend "The
Great Passion Play" after
dinner that evening. This out
standing, large production,
which features citizens of the
community, Is presented from
the last week of April until the
last Saturday of October. The
performance begins at 7:30
p.m. and runs four hours.
After the spectacle we were
bussed back to our motel at
Branson.
The last full day there we
spent the morning out at near
by Silver Dollar City where
dozens of craft shops are
nestled In an historic old
mining town setting. After
lunching there, we were taken
to the unusual School of the
Ozarks, now a certified four
year university. An attractive
girl student boarded our bus
and conducted us around the
campus.' We visited the old
mill, the beautiful chapel, the
excellent museum, the famous
Inspiration Point viewpoint
and the group of campus
greenhouses which contain
masses of orchids and other
gorgeous plants. When the bus
was loaded to leave the cam
pus, our guide presented an
outstanding, large orchid to

After dinner In Branson, we
were taken to an Ozark Moun
tain Music Jubilee stage show.
Among the dozen performers
was a guitarist and singer
named Ben Weatherford with
whom I visited during Inter
mission, He Is an Oklahoma
boy and was pleased to hear
about the Weatherfords of
Heppner.
At 8 a.m. on Tuesday, our
loaded bus left Branson
headed for Hutchinson, Kan
sas. During that day's drive
through summer-parched
agricultural Kansas, we visi
ted, rested and played games
as we traveled. We all surely
en joyed Don and Lois Lee on
our trip. He entertained us
with catchy stories Beveral
times each day over the bus
microphone.
At Hutchinson, we were
scheduled to visit the new
Cosmosphcre and Space Cen
ter that evening, but because
of a power failure in its
building that activity was
canceled, and because.we had
seen exciting attractions for
the previous four nights, most
of us were glad to stay in our
rooms and get more sleep.
The next day's excitement
was our morning and noon
time visit to Dodge City, Kan
sas, where we took pictures in
the Boot Hill Cemetery, visi
ted the museum and re-constructed
shops and reviewed
more Western history before
traveling on to Pueblo, Colo

to Grand Junction.
Friday, we appreciated the
beauty of Utah westward to
Salina and then turning north
to metropolitan Salt Lake
City. There we were the first
group booked in a just-opened
hotel where we enjoyed a
farewell dinner party on this
last night of our tour.
After a drive around Temple
Square and a look at some of
the city's sights, we headed
for Boise, Idaho promptly by 8
a.m. on Saturday. We lunched
at Snowvillc, Utah, where
many took final group pic
tures in the lovely sunshine.
We made wonderful time on
the good Idaho freeways,
reaching Boise several hours
ahead of our scheduled arri
val. We Morrow County gals
took a vote and decided to
push on home instead of stay
ing that night in Boise as we
had planned.
We all gained much from
our two-week tour. We found
each of the 1 1 states (including
Oregon's northeast) very
beautiful. We saw how impor
tant the Oregon Trail route
'was and still is. We found
people friendly everywhere.
We noted some very neat and
attractive small towns and
some that looked messy and
rundown. We enjoyed the sight
seeing and special attractions
that were scheduled for us
along the way, and we enjoyed
the friendships we strength
ened with our companions. We
are all glad we made the trip
and all arrived home without
any mishaps.

There will never be a better time to buy
International equipment. Prices are at all-time
lows with waiver of finance charges available on
many selected models for qualified buyers. And
we're ready to deal on quality International
equipment that can improve your harvesting and
fall tillage efficiency.
Also, a purchase of International equipment
this fall could greatly reduce your tax liability
and improve your bottom line for 1983, and
the years thereafter. We've done some tax
calculations to provide
1) A $100,000 purchase in 1983, with
30 down or equivalent trade-in.
2) Financing through
until May 1, 1984.
3) An interest charge

Investments until: 1987 1985
Total tax savings $69,949.36 $39,974.68
The chart shows a purchase in 1983 could have a
very positive effect on your cash position. In the
50 tax bracket example, 1983 tax liability is
reduced by $17,125.00, freeing up that money for
other investments. The reduced tax liability would
offset the note expense until 1987, providing a
positive cash balance for investment until then.
Tax savings would total $69,949.36.
See your tax advisor. He can show you exactly
how an equipment purchase this fall could give
you a tax break next spring.
Then see us for the quality International
equipment you can put in the field this fall. Ask
your dealer for a copy of the Take The Tax
