May 26, 1993 Blind storyteller captivates students Spring music program slated The spring program for Kindergarten through fourth grade classes will be held this Fri day.

Sheriff’s Report Heppner Elementary school children were not too jaded by television and Nintendo to delight in the pure pleasure of a good story. And the story was made all the more vivid by the story teller. John Braden Dashney. who is blind. As Dashney’s sight failed as a result of retinitus (narrowing tun nel vision) and one door closed, another opened to him. When his son, Braden, was young and Dashney’s disease was becoming progressively worse, Dashney discovered that he could no longer see well enough to read to his son. He started making up stories and discovered that he had a talent for it. Dashney, who lives in Salem, has appeared in over 400 schools in the U.S. and over seas and has captivated over 100,000 students. He has a master of fine arts degree in English from the University of Oregon. He has been a regular performer at Portland’s Artquake and has published a book and many stories and articles. Dashney writes his own material. Chamber Chatter By Claudia Hughes, Chamber Manager Every once in awhile I try to look at Heppner through the eyes of a visitor and I see an active community, a community who cares, a community trying to move forward against odds, a community that takes pride in itself, and accepts challenge and change. Sometimes though, we see signs of negatism that drags us down and makes us backtrack. With that in mind, I share the following parable about the im portance of attitude from the Cor vallis Chamber of Commerce: The Man Who Sold Hot Dogs There was once a man who liv ed by the side of the road and sold hot dogs. In fact, he sold very good hot dogs. He put up signs along the highway telling people how good his hot dogs tasted. He stood by the side of the road and called out, “ Buy a hot dog, delicious hot dogs. Buy a hot dog, Mister?” And people bought his hot dogs. They bought so many hot dogs, the man increased his meat and bun orders. He bought a big ger stove, too, so he could meet his customers’ demands. And finally, he brought his son home from college to help out in the family business. But something happened... His son said, “ Father, don't you watch television or read the paper? Don’t you know there’s a big recession going on? The European situation is terrible. The domestic crisis is even worse.” The father pondered his son’s words. And the father thought, “ Well, my son’s a smart boy. He's been to a good college. He ought to know what he’s talking about. ’ ’ So the man cut down on his meat and bun orders, took down the signs he had put up along the highway and no longer bothered to stand by the side of the road to sell his hot dogs. And his sales fell almost overnight. “ You're right son.” said the father. “ We certainly are in the middle of a serious recession!” Think Positive. Next week: Chamber board and business meeting. Remember, this is the opportuni ty to utilize our Chamber net working system by coming to the business meeting and sharing in formation with the community at large. It is the time to hear new ideas and gain support for ex isting projects from all entities. See you there.
