Her memories reveal a Jesus who lov ed each person unconditionally. His love shattered the conven tions of his day as he ate with sin ners, cured the sick on the Sab bath and forgave the women taken in sin. Herstory is about the healing o f hearts, memories, the turning o f darkness into light, despair to hope and sadness to joy.

The chamber appreciates those who supported the transient room tax, thus enabling your Chamber of Com merce to continue promoting our local businesses, events and to continue responding to the numerous relocation and tourism requests. We ure always receptive to hearing the mutual needs of business, industry and the citizens of Heppner, so that we can effect actions, programs and projects to meet these needs. Shopping out of town is an ex cursion for many o f our citizens. Our local merchants understand this, but please keep in mind these six good reasons to shop locally:. 1-dollars spent locally stay in and work for our community; 2-the firm you buy from pays local taxes to support our community; 3-the store you buy from will stand behind its goods; 4-you can transact business with friends; 5-money you spend here stays here to create jobs for your neighbors; 6-as a result, your community will grow and pro sper. W e’re often fooled into thinking we save a few dollars on a product by going out of town. Instead, we have used 100 miles plus worth of gas. probably eaten out. and more than likely pur chased 20 other items we could just have well done without, not to mention the time we have wasted. I'd rather shop locally and save my “ excursion energy'' for other things. It beats long lines, driving home tired and hav ing to unload the car after an ex hausting day. It also helps to maintain a business district, that attracts visitors and that we can feel proud to list as our home address. No chamber next week as it is the fifth Tuesday.

According to a number of recent articles in psychiatric journals, lithium probably is the most effective agent being used in the prevention of manic depres sion. Most persons who take lithium experience a lag time from when they start the medicine until the time it reaches its maximum effec tiveness in preventing manic or depressive behavior. The lag time may range from a few days to two weeks. The American Hospital Formulary Service indicates that lithium is more effective in pre venting mania and hyperactivity than in preventing depression. Lithium is one of a few medi cines that have a narrow therapeu tic index. This means that the range from an effective therapeutic blood level to a toxic level is not very wide. Therefore, blood levels of lithium must be monitored care fully during therapy. Mild toxicity may include nausea and vomiting, while severe toxicity may result in muscle rigidity, seizures, and irregular heart beat. Lithium may interact with several medicines including certain diuretics, non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and certain antidepressants. If you take lithium, discuss its use with your physician and pharmacist. Stokes Landing Senior Center has planned a dinner and game night for Friday, Sept. 25 at the senior center in Irrigon.
