Walter, came to Heppner to live because their older son Charles was in busi ness here They bought the Fred Mankin place where they lived until Walter's death in 10. when Ola moved into one of the Green Apartments. Last Saturday she left there to move to The Dulles. Because she is a descendant of Virginia Dare, the first English child born in the ill-fated American colony at Roanoke Island where Virgi nia's parents settled in 1597 and also of Samuel Osgood (1748 1813), the first postmas ter general to serve under the United States Constitution, as one talks with Ola Kuggles one gains glimpses into unusual chapters in U.S. History. Before coming to Heppner, Ola and Walter and their children lived in Sherman County in the Wasco-Moro area where Walter and his brother, Oscar, who married one of Ola's sisters, were pioneer farmers. Ola was a leader of women's groups and very active in the Federated Womens Clubs of Oregon. She continued being active in Mor row County with her member ship in the Methodist Church, the Hebekah Lodge, the Eastern Star and White Shrine, the Heppner Garden Club and the Tuesday Morning Pinochle Club of which she is now the only original member. Several of these groups have had farewell parties for her recently. Ola says that when she carne here to live and knew very few persons, the then extension leader Mrs. Purvine took her to visit the various county extension units, and later Ola became county chairman for extension groups. She speaks proudly of her husband Walter whose grand parents came to Oregon via California from Missouri. They brought 18 slaves with them to California where they set them all free. The descen dants of these slaves, who all adopted the name Ruggles, are now prospering. Walter went to Fort Lewis at the beginning of World War I, but was released and sent home because he w as a farmer with a family. The Ruggles child ren were Charles, Laura (now Twillegar) who lives in Prineville and a younger son, Phil. Ola recalls having an invita tion to the dedication of the Hill Museum at Maryhill and seeing Sam Hill and Queen Marie of Rumania. Ola has done some china and some oil painting. She has several proofs of her talent an interesting view of the Indians fishing at the Celilo Rapids and another attractive paint ing of three geese in flight. She started painting when her older sister was taking lessons from a Mr. Roberts and let young Ola use whatever paint was left on her palette. Although Ola still has old friends in Sherman County and in The Dalles whom she expects to see again in her new location, she is hoping that her Morrow County friends will write to her and will stop to visit her when they are in The Dalles. Her new apartment is in the Camlu Retirement Home at 910 Cherry Height Road, The Dalles, 97058. ft''1 to to to to to to to to to to Be Ready for the Holidays 'EARLY SHOPPER SALE' IN PROGRESS UNTIL NOV. 19 Coast to Go ast to to to to to to to to to to to 4i given on the sales tax proposal and it was urged that all study the proposal earnestly before voting on this very important Issue.
