Letters to the Editor
Thanks for supporting programs
To the Editor:
November 17-23 is American
Education Week. This year’s theme
is “ Schools and Communities: Part
ners for a Strong America” . With
that, I thought it appropriate to
recognize some of the businesses and
service groups which have given me
considerable support in the educa
tional programs 1 coordinate.
The Hands on Science program
was started in Heppner three years
ago. From the outset, the Heppner
Masonic Order, First Interstate
Bank, and the Morrow County
Education Association have provid
ed substantial contributions toward
scholarships. These scholarships
have allowed numerous students to
participate in the Hands on Science
program who otherwise might not
have.
The Hands on Science Early Sum
mer Science program was started in
1990 thanks to the Morrow County
Youth Commission. They provided
nearly full tuition to preschool
students in both Heppner and Board-
man. This program also wouldn’t
have been possible without the
cooperation of the Heppner and
Boardman Day Care Centers.
I would also like to recognize all
of the local businesses that have sup
ported the Heppner Middle School
Honor Card program. These are Or-
wick’s Machine Shop, Gardner’s
Men’s Wear, Bank of Eastern
Oregon, Heppner Gazette-Times,
M urray’s Drug Store, Central
Market, Miller’s Mini Mart, Peter
son’s Jewelers, The Shoe Box,
Heppner Bowl, Our Place Cafe,
Heppner Auto Parts, Court Street
Market and Beecher’s.
As schools thrive, our communi
ty prospers, as children, learn all our
futures brighten. Every community
has one thing to be proud of-it’s our
public schools and the education of
its children. Thank you for suppor
ting strong public schools and educa
tional programs that help kids here
in Heppner get a start on life.
Sincerely,
(s) Sarah Carlson

Hooray to Hardman Community
To the Editor:
We want to give a big “ hooray”
to all the people of Hardman Com
munity Grange. What a job they do
all year, not only for the people who
live in the area, but for those of us
who visit during the deer and elk
seasons. The breakfasts, dinners and
the haunted house at Halloween are
great. My husband and I have been
camping at Anson Wright Park for
30 years during the deer and elk
season and really enjoy the park. We
have become friends with so many
nice people in the Heppner area and
look forward to returning to your
town and community each year.
Thanks again,

LIFE INSURANCE
A
New Puppy
We’ve got a new puppy at our house.
I’m not sure we’ll ever be the same.
Training a new puppy is a lot dif
ferent than raising yet another child,
since puppies do so many things a new
baby can't-at least before you can gain
a little control. One way they are alike,
though, is that neither puppies nor
babies know when to sleep when they
are brand new.
Sleeping at night and being awake in
the day time is something puppies have
to learn. In fact, it’s something the
whole family has to learn all over
again. Sidney (that’s the puppy’s name)
had never been away from her mam
ma when she came to live with us. And
I guess she was homesick most at night
At least that’s when she cried the most.
Well, she cried the first night. And everyone in the family tried to com
fort her at one time or another during the night. I knew that was a mistake
and we agreed not to do that anymore. When Sidney couldn't earn a little
attention from crying, she yelped a little the second night. But we didn’t
make the same mistake twice, you see, it was a different mistake.
But with great personal discipline, the whole family is now retained to
stay in bed all night long. Some nights it's even possible to sleep most
of the time. Sidney, instead of learning to sleep, has learned to bark pretty
good.
Sidney’s eating habits need some correction too. Never having tasted
dog's milk, I wasn’t sure whether cow’s milk would do. Sidney was cer
tain Sidney's family had been eating, but somehow that was not right either.
Sidney does like beef steak. And chocolate chip cookies are her favorite.
Sidney has it figured out that only dogs eat dog food.
At only seven or eight weeks of age, and since it’s nearly winter, Sidney
has not been assigned living quarters out-of-doors. But there has been some
effort to assign her out-of-doors bathroom facilities. That effort has fail
ed, mostly.
I remember a new puppy when I was a kid that dad kicked out the door
every time he piddled on the floor. One time after he landed in the lawn,
that puppy simply found a place to live in the wood shed. He never came
back in the house again, and that suited dad just fine. Sidney doesn’t get
kicked out the door, just cleaned up after. Maybe that’s a mistake too.
But things will work out. Sidney is such a smart dog, and so cute. She
cuddles up to every member of the family and we all look after her with
affection. Puppies like to test their teeth and those little snags in everyone’s
socks are evidence of that. Oh, I know, we should be training her not to
do that either, but maybe it’s good for her little growing teeth.
She still sleeps most of the day, but by evening, when everyone is home,
she’s wide awake and just as playful as can be. I remember a child, or
two, that was that way. Both of those kids turned out pretty good without
much training so maybe Sidney will too. I really wish she would not put
all those claw marks on the sofa when she climbs on it. though._____
