Final preparations are being

Herstory, The M other’s Tale, at
St. Patrick’s Parish Hall on Satur
day. Sept. 26 at 7:30 p.m.
In this musical play, Mary tells
the life of her son to Luke, who
records the events. She recalls her
personal joys and sorrows, being
a refugee in a strange land, a
frantic mother of a missing child,
a grief stricken witness to the suf
fering and death o f Jesus. 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. Sacrificing his life, and ris
ing gloriously alive, Jesus reveal
ed that death is a doorway, and

Remember to come swing into shape with the exercise class Tues
day and Thursday 10-10:30 a.m.
The vote is in. 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. October 6 will
be our monthly business meeting
and the candidates issues forum
at 7 p.m at Heppner High School
cafetorium. Dick Temple will be
the master of ceremonies.

that is necessary for evil to
triumph is for good men to do
•nothing.” (Attributed to Edmund
B urke. Irish -b o rn

Lithium For Various
Mental Disorders
Lithium has been used success
fully for more than a decade in the
United States for the management
of certain mental problems includ
ing mania, depression, and mood
disorders. 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.
