SIX - Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, March 26,1997 Lisa Nelson speaks N O TIC E O F at lone Topic Club Lisa Nelson was the guest speaker at the lone Topic Club meeting held recently at the home o f Jean N elson, w ith Kathy Morter as co-hostess. Nelson reviewed the book “The Persian Pickle Club” by Sandra Dallas. This is a “humorous story of the Depression in Kansas.” The setting is a quilting group called The Persian Pickle Club. The second book reviewed was “Children o f the Flam es” by Lucette Lagnada and Sheila Dekel, about Dr. Josef Mengele’s medical experiments with twins in Auschwitz. Much of the informa tion for the book came from “the survivors of that terrible time and their search for Mengele to de stroy him as he did his victims.” During the business meeting, plans were discussed for the din ner the club will serve to the 150 Oregon Trail cyclists on Friday, May 9. The members will have a table at the Indoor Garage Sale at the Legion Hall on Saturday, April 19. The next event of the club will be the lone High School senior girls’ tea on Thursday, April 24.

All that hot air and blarney for St. Patrick's w eekend festivities somehow caused the air tem perature to rise 40 degrees by late Saturday afternoon. Even the leprechauns didn't go into hiding when they woke up to a fresh dusting o f snow that morning. And though storm clouds were threatening, the parade went o ff without a hitch. The year-round work o f the St. Patrick's com m ittee plus the m any w illing volunteers proves that a small town can successfully stage a m ajor production that attracts visitors from far and near. For people who could not attend, they missed a great variety o f high class entertainm ent-singing, music and Irish clogging—without having to brave outside elements. Aside from the fun and frolic and visiting and renewing acquaintances, the heritage o f this county was brought to life at the M orrow County Museum. Domestic scenes o f pioneer life were depicted by appropriately costum ed young people. These youngsters dem onstrated how pioneers who founded this area made do without m odem conveniences. The old clothes wringer, the hand-powered butter chum, the stove-heated flatirons and the spinning o f wool were all dem onstrated while a steady crowd circulated through the museum. And everyone can claim to be Irish while enjoying this * celebration. Though it’s a homecoming type o f affair, each year it attracts more visitors who seem to enjoy the cam araderie and the entertainment. M eanwhile no one needed to go hungry as there w ere delicious food offerings throughout the town. Even late night revelers were rewarded with a hearty breakfast by daw n's early light, courtesy o f the H eppner volunteer firemen. A long w ith elbow bending and dancing, entertainment also included motorcross racing, team roping and the sheep dog trials that attracted many spectators. Now that the 15th annual St. Patrick's celebration is history, it has proven to be the best way to chase away the doldrums o f a long dreary winter. What better w ay to turn the com er into springtime. This traditional event is a truly fitting tribute to our rural way o f life and the early settlers. Game night at Stokes Landing in Irrigon will be held on Friday, M arch 28 beginning with dinner at 5 p.m.. Card games follow at 7 p.m. Cost is $3 for the dinner and $1 for games. Everyone is invited to attend.
