Food handling class offered E.coli, Streptococcus, Cam pylobacter and Listeria, frequent sources of foodborne illness, are unwelcome visitors at any com munity event. Will you, or someone you know, be involved with food sales at a community event this year? Lots of people volunteer at or purchase from food booths each year. Fourth of July, Watermelon Festival, Horse Show, Morrow County Fair and Rodeo, and Wee Bit O’lreland are some local events that involve lots of volunteers to prepare and serve food at community events. Community volunteers also prepare and serve food for various bazaars, fund raisers and banquets on a year round basis. Because food committee chairs can change annually,and the pool of volunteers changes from year to year, it is critical for the public health that safe food handling principles be followed consistent ly, said Carol Michael Bennett, Morrow County Extension agent. “ Basics of Food Handling Principles” will be taught June 23 in the A.C. Houghton School cafeteria. North Main St., Irrigon from 7-9 p.m. Chuck Stahl, Oregon Health Division instruc tor promises that “ it will be in teresting and it will be fun.” Stahl is an environmental health specialist but food booth managers know him as the “ health department inspector” . Stahl says he is anxious to help food booth organizers set up their organizations to operate safely and has helpful suggestions if people need to improvise equip ment for temporary use. There is no charge for the class but pre-registration will help to have enough materials on hand for everyone. To register call the Morrow County Extension of fice, 676-9642 or 1-800-342- 3664. The class is co-sponsored by the Oregon State University Extension Service, Oregon Health Division and Morrow County Public Health Department.

Although the study is in a Chris tian context, anyone who has an interest in this area is invited to come and share. Angels have fascinated people from Biblical times to the present, says a spokesperson. In the past few years there have been several new books written about angles, the image of the angelic ones have reappeared in popular art and now the most popular play on Broadway, “ Angels in Amer ica” , has as one of its main characters and themes, a beautiful angel who crashes through the ceiling. There are many myths and traditions about angels, as well as personal experiences which testify to the existence of beings who are present but not “ seen” , continued the spokesper son for the group. The Bible adds to this body of knowledge. Everyone is invited to join the group as they seek more information.

It is es timated that 10 percent of children in the United States have asthma. This condition accounts for over 20 percent of all grade school ab sences and about 15 percent of all hospi tal i zations i n vol v i ng ch i ldren. Factors that may bring on an asthma attack in children include upper respiratory tract infections, especially viral infections; tem perature changes, especially cold dry air; exercise or increased activ ity; irritants such as cigarette smoke; and allergic reactions. House dust mites, animal fur, and plant pollen are common causes of allergy in children. Cow s milk may be a problem for infants.

British researchers in a recent issue of British Journal o f Hospital Medicine recommend inhaled beta agonists such as albuterol for infrequent or mild asthma. C romolyn sodium, a medi - cine that helps prevent airway nar rowing, is recommended for fre quent or moderate episodes. Not all children respond the same way to cromolyn. Therefore, a low dose of inhaled steroid such as beclo- methasone may be a good alterna tive to cromolyn sodium. Severe asthma may require more frequent doses of inhaled steroids. In addi tion, oral steroids given every other day may be needed.
