Letters to the Editor_____ III Editor * note: Letters to the editor must be signed The Gazette Times will not publish unsigned letters Please include your address and phone number on for use by the G T office The GT reserves the right to edit all letters To the Editor: I have been involved in the Artifactory committee for many years as a member of Sorop- timist International of Hepp ner. This year I have heard many negative com m ents about the fact that we are go ing to charge a $2 admission fee. I would like to defend our decision. We are a service organiza tion. The money that we take from a community in the form of bake sales and the Artifac tory is given back to the com munity in the form of scholar ships, donations, etc. The Ar tifactory is the prime revenue source for the youth Citizen ship Awards, $250, and Aca- demic/Vo-Tech scholarships, •Dr. Donate J . CarCson Medicine and Surgery of the Foot will be at Heppner Clinic on N ov. 13 & 2 7 to treat all foot problems $800, for our area youth. We would like to increase those amounts in the coming years. The expenses associated with hosting the Artifactory have in creased and we felt that an ad mission charge of $2 could help offset those expenses. Two dollars was reasonable since other area craft fairs charge $5 or more. Come on Heppner, don't, penalize our area youth by boycotting the Artifactory. We'll give you a cup of coffee and tables to sit and visit and chances to win hourly door prizes for your $2.

Zastrow said that women need to know how to handle their money. According to Statistics, women live at least seven years longer than their husbands. Therefore, they will probably be responsible for all financial decisions. It is said that women live 25 percent of their lives after retiring, so they should plan ahead, considering how much retirement income they might need. There are many investment counselors who will help people plan ahead so that their'money can be invested to bring in the best return. According to Zastrow, start by listing assets and then note financial needs to continue liv- ing as previously. Probably 75-80 percent of the past in come will be needed to main tain current living standards. This is not a hard, fast rule, but will give one a basis to start from, she said. A report from the library showed that pre-school child ren are coming to the library on Tuesday and Wednesday for the story hour in the morning. Also, kindergarten children come to the library on Monday for a story hour presented by Kerry Rietmann. Lea Peterson announced that contact had been made through the school news letter asking if any parents or students would like to have the public library open for some day after school for study. As yet, there has been no response. The group met at the home of Margaret Morgan, with Nan cy McElligott as co-hostess.
