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.
