Jim Walker, Eastern Oregon
State Grange Deputy was the
guest at the Wheatland
Pomona meeting held recently
at the Willows Grange Hall.
Mike Medlock, Master of
Wheatland was the presiding
officer with Kenneth Smouse
filling the chair of Assistant and
Loretta Lantis as Flora. The
business of the day was con­
ducted in the 4th degree. Mr.
Walker spoke to the group
about the need of younger peo­
ple especially farmers in the
group. We must bear in mind
that the Grange is a legislative
group and the resolutions sent
to the Legislature from the
grange has a bearing on many
of the decisions not only on the
state level but county and city.
Walker urged the granges to
get more advertising and ar­
ticles in the local papers about
the many activities and con­
tests. He reminded us of the
youth organizations of the
grange and their activities.
The legislative chairman urg­
ed members to study the
measures, and read up on what
the various candidates hope to
do in the coming years and
reminded people to be sure and
vote, but be knowledgable of
what you are voting for.
G.W.A. ctfairman Wilma
Martin told of her visit to the
G.W.A. meeting in Greenfield
grange and asked that the
subordinate chairman be sure
and send in the quarterly
reports to her as they are need­
ed to help her fill out her
Pomona reports. A Letter was
read from the state office con-
ceming the community service
reports and the need of a chair­
man in each grange. Under un­
finished the business of putting
the G.W.A. group back in
District 6 from 4 was discuss­
ed. The way this can be done
is through resolutions from the
subordinate granges, concern­
ing their opinion of this.
Master, talked on several issues
concerning the grangers such
as weed control of the Casha
which is crowding the road­
ways and creeping into the
fields, and the forestry and the
contol of the dangerous weeds
in the mountains effecting graz­
ing. Plans were made last year
for the control of this project
through crews, however the
fires prevented the planned
project to go ahead. Had hoped
this could be done without the
airplane spraying over the dif­
ferent areas. There was talk on
the bird and owl issues,
especially hawks, and the need
of ponds to hold the run-off.
Grange reports were in­
teresting with the Master's and
others reporting of the subor­
dinate activities. Spray grange
is doing extensive remodeling
to their hall, and they have
elected officers and the Coun­
ty Deputy accompanied by Dot
Halvorsen had been present to
install. Greenfield holds card
parties one morning a week

ches, and the plans for card

What a haunting experience
I had. If you missed the
Haunted House at the school
carnival, you missed a "ghoo-
ly" good time. I would like to
thank certain people that made
this a success and helped out
the Tupper field trip fund for
sixth graders.
A big thank you to Kaedene
Bailey for asking me to plan the
Haunted House. I enjoyed this
event and it brought back
memories of the "DeSpain
Haunted House” in "The Old
Yellow Castle". Thanks to
Dean Robinson for helping
plan and prepare and especially
getting kids to help. I couldn't
have done this by myself. A
special thanks to my husband
Russell Brannon for helping me
set up. He was handling all the
hard work quite well. Ron
Bowman also spent much time
fixing and repairing while the
Haunted House was in pro­
gress and making sure things
would run somewhat smooth­
ly. Thanks go to these people
for their time and donations:
Kaedene and Meghan Bailey,
Darcy Coil, Patti Allstott, Mark
and Shelly Rietmann, Claire
Anderson, Pioneer Memorial
Hospital for the stretcher and
IV stand, Heppner Elks for
costumes, coffin and head­
stones, Bob and Aloha DeS­
pain, Arletha Brannon, Terry
and Kelly Gray, Jackie Allsott,
Jerry and JoyceKay Hollomon,
Jane Rawlins for com stalks and
yes, even you Hal Bergstrom
for the short use of your big
arm muscles.
We cannot forget who made
it happen, our crew. The
seventh and eighth graders of
Heppner and lone did a superb
job. I didn't get a chance to say
thanks and how I was glad to
see you all scarying the wits out
of everyone. Also we had ex­
tras such as Jeri Wight, Brad
Bowman, Jamie Hansen,
Sherry Sieler, Lacey O'Neal
and Jeanette Brantley. I ap-
all your help and
E reciated

time. Thanks again. You did
great.
