Box 170 Boardman, Oregon 97818 481-9474 481-7351 Antacids: Effective and Fast Acting Medicines According to comments by Dr. Hugo Gallo-Torres in a recent issue o f Pharmacy Times , antacids are fast acting and should bring relief in a matter of minutes. Several gastro intestinal problems respond favor ably to antacid medicines. These conditions include: Peptic Ulcer Disease: About 10 percent of all Americans develop an ulcer or sore in the stomach or small intestine at some point in their lives. Antacids are used along with other medicines such as the H2 antagonists to neutralize acid, allowing ulcers to heal. Heartburn: The burning sensa tion caused by stomach acid and partially digested food that backs up into the low er end o f the esophagus often is relieved with antacids. Indigestion (sour stomach): An upset stomach or acid indigestion may mean that the lining o f the stomach is inflamed due to excess acid secretion. Antacids and other medicines may provide relief. Dr. Gallo-Torres suggests that if there is no immediate relief o f indi gestion or heartburn, some other conditon may be present that re quires the attention of a physician. Antacids can interact with certain m edicines and vitamin/mineral preparations. Antacid side effects include diarrhea (magnesium-con taining antacids) and constipation (aluminum-containing antacids). lone Middle School beats Echo The lone Middle School Car dinals traveled to Echo for their first game Thursday, Dec. 17 and beat the Cougars 34-18. lone punished Echo with a tough man-to-man defense.

Reception following the ceremony, Pendleton Convention Center, Happy Canyon Room 1601 W estgate, Pendleton You m ay be w ondering why the rather large ad app eared in last w eek's paper asking for your opinion of my running for m ayor. To follow is a story of why this happened and w hy it’s costing m e so m uch to retract that ad. O n D ecem ber 11th, 1992 I was part of a conspiracy to get Jack G reen e of Lake O sw ego, O regon on his 40th Birthday. I knew this w as dangerous because Jack is a notoriously sore loser--as the ad in the H eppner G azette proves. This is w hat I did to Jack G reene: I sim ply took him out to breakfast on said m orning and due to the fact that he gulped his food down had to side track him and ask to go see his one year old daughter at hom e. W hile I w as m aking this diversionary action, m y cohorts trashed his desk and did one other thing that m ade M r. G reen e (a V E R Y tidy person) so m ad that he placed last w e e k ’s ad. Jack w as especially bitter because he was so sure that I had only trash ed his office and m ade him pay for breakfast, he w ished m e well on my trip back to Eastern O regon. T he crowning blow for M r. G reen e w as that my cohorts a t tached a few pounds of chicken m anure above the catalytic converter in his pick-up. H e w ent around for quite aw hile fum ing over the lovely fragrance em anating from his vehicle (even now it retains som e arom a). W hen his w ife told him w here to look and who the m asterm ind of this deed was, he went ballistic (his wife is in trouble too). Even though his ad w as an em barrassm ent to m e and my fam ily, I still feel this w as a great w ay for a friend to rem em ber his 40th Birthday. And it m ade him fam ous in som e circles! M y sincere apologies to the H eppner Com m unity for my frien d ’s skulduggery. But w hat can you expect from som eone from "T h e V a lle y ” --especialy "L ake E g o .” H appy N ew Y e a r to a great town! \L * s L» x X* v L» A four week self defense class will begin Jan. 14 from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Lexington School District Office.
