Children entertain with a program at Seventh-Day Adventist Bible school
The Heppner Seventh-day
Adventist Church vacation Bi
ble school program, "Friends
Forever", was a "huge suc
cess", according to spokesper
son Ruth Parm.
Classes from "cradle roll"
through juniors were offered
each afternoon. To start each
day, children gathered in the
church and were treated to
special children's songs which
were "vocalized with happy
enthusiasm and laughter". The
children also saw a skit by the
juniors' Good Life Team to
teach them how to be friends
forever and how not to be ex
clusive in making friends, said
Parm. The skit was followed by
memory verse reciting and
prayer.
Division leaders, Kelly Fritz,
Joyce Grasser, Diane Monroe
and Delta Huber, were under
the leadership of Sharia Erich.
Classes offered instruction in
crafts, hands-on first aid, home
survival skills, personal safety
awareness, Bible stories and
o th e r related activities.
"Children were so thrilled with
their craft projects, they in
sisted on taking them home
each day rather than waiting
until the last day for parents'
day,” said Parm.
Playground activities were
supervised and games were
chosen to enhance cooperation
and team spirit, rather than
competition, added Parm. A
daily healthful snack of fruit,
vegies and crackers or muffin
was prepared and served by

Timing of Medicine
May Improve Therapy
How and when medicines are
taken often needs to correspond
with other events that are occur
ring in the body. Medical research
ers who study body rhythms have
identified a biological clock that
describes the frequency o f many
body functions. Understanding
body rhythms can help determine
the best time for dosing medicines.
According to a review of bio
rhythm studies in a recent issue of
American Journal o f Health Sys
tem Pharmacy , short-acting medi
cines for high blood pressure, an
gina, and arrhythmias should be
given in the morning because heart
attacks, strokes, and other heart
related problems tend to occur most
often between 6 AM and 12 noon.
Researchers believe such problems
are related to early morning re
lease of chemicals called cate
cholamines. Corticosteroid medi
cines also are usually given in the
morning. This time of dosing par
allels the normal release of cortisol
and helps prevent a dysfunction or
shut down of the adrenal glands.
In contrast, long-acting high
blood pressure medicines may best
be given at bedtime. This helps
assure adequate drug blood levels
the next morning. Medicines which
prevent cholesterol synthesis, such
as simvastatin, are more effective
when given in the evening hours
because the body tends to produce
cholesterol at night.
