Publishers Letters to the Editor National Laboratory week slated To the Editor: In honor o f National Laboratory Week, April 11-17, I would like to acknowledge Betty Hickerson and Shelley Wight for their hard work and dedication to the sick and elderly of this com munity. Laboratory professionals are constantly exposed to sickness and disease, hepatitis and HIV (the AIDS virus). Ours is a thankless task. Far from the limelite of the physicians and nurses that we see on televi sion, or experience in real life. We take your blood, urine and even feces and look for answers. If it fits our motto “ Where the In vestigation Begins". We don’t discriminate in age, creed, color, religion, or even what illness you are exposing us to. We only care for your good health and work to find a cure. We are called “ blood suckers” and "vam pires", but, we get no pleasure from sticking you with needles. Our joy comes from pro viding answers so you can be relieved of the burden of disease and pain. On behalf of the children and the elderly, the sick and the healthy, those broken of body and spirit, of all who have crossed your path, thank you. We ap preciate Betty and Shelley, for your skills, sacrifice, caring and understanding of all those in need. From the heart, (s) Jay Straley Wells Springs site in a mess To the Editor: Last week while my grandson from Lebanon was visiting me 1 thought it would be nice to show him around the county so I took a trip to lone to see the pipe line and on to Wells Spring and the ruts of the Oregon Trail. The In terpretive Center was real nice, but what I saw at the springs made me ashamed that people from all over might come and see such a mess. Some time ago someone cut the roots of the only tree in the area (beside the spring) with a power saw so the first good wind blew it over and broke the fence down. The sign can hardly be read because it’s so weather beaten, the posts are rotting off and fall ing down and trash is in the spring itself. If the Historical Society would like to put this attraction back in order I would be glad to help some afternoon or whenever to do this. If I didn't know where the Springs were from the Inter pretive Center 1 would not have found it. A small sign saying 400 yards and an arrow would be a great help to someone out of the county.
