Next week at this time they will have come and gone as they followed the Oregon Trail and learned a bit about the history at each community stop. The chamber has printed “ Welcome to Heppner” stickers to put on their lunch bags and to have available for the local retailers and servers to wear. We hope to encourage the cyclists to stay and play awhile before traveling on to lone. Channel 2 will be in Heppner and they are interested in learn ing about Cycle Oregon III, as well as VI, and how the proceeds were used at that time, ideas for use of ‘93 proceedings range rom Christmas lights, tree pro ject, possible mural, rodeo ban ners. to matching funds for grants, etc. The selected project will be lasting and benefit everyone. This time of the year the flowers around town seem extra beautiful and special appreciation goes to the merchants with the beautiful planters, the Garden Club, the Rawlins and all others taking pride in our community. It will be a welcome sight for our visitors and all too soon, the fall frosts will change the picture. No chamber on Tuesday, Sept. 14, as it will be “ all pioneers” in place to serve. Chamber will resume on Sept. 21 with the pro gram welcoming Terry Edvalson, Jim Kraft and Patricia Mid- del burg from Eastern Oregon State College. They will be discussing regional services and the Heppner Gap study.

W hile pso riasis is not necessarily inherited, about thirty percent o f persons with psoriasis have at least one parent or grandparent who had the con dition. Inflamed pink or dull red patches o f skin become covered with thick silvery scales. Chronic itching, the most common symp tom, is experienced by over eighty percent o f p soriasis sufferers. W hile there is no specific cure for psoriasis, over-the-counter (OTC) medicines containing coal tar may help reduce the severity of itching.
