The logging camps which
flounshed in northwest Oregon in
the 1920s and 30s are the subject
of a slide/tape program and
discussion to be held at the
Morrow County Museum in
Heppner at 7 p.m. on Wednesday,
September 10. The public is
invited to attend and admission is
free.
The program is sponsored by the
museum and is made possible by
the Oregon Council for the
Humanities, an affiliate of the
National Endowment for the
Humanities.
"Steam Whistle Logging," an
award-winning program produced
by the Clatsop County Historical
Society, tells the story of loggers
and their families in the days
when Oregon's timber resources
still seemed unlimited. Although
the makeshift communities which
sprang up within Oregon's
primeval forests were quite
isolated, these camps managed to
fulfill their inhabitants' needs for
shelter, schools and strong social
bonds. "Steam Whistle Logging"
features interviews with author
Sam Churchill and over a dozen
men and women who lived and
adults, work fbree preparation,
science and technology, and
environmental stewardship.
Morrow County will focus on
plans in the following areas:
leadership development for youth
and
adults,
work
force
preparation,
science
and
technology, and environmental
stewardship.
Leadership development for
youth and adults encompasses
programs
that
will
help
strengthen the leadership skills of
those who lead local 4-H clubs
and groups as well as helping
youth develop the leadership
skills to assume more leadership
for their own programs.
Work force preparation focuses
on the need for all youth to
develop certain essential life
skills that will make them
successful as they become adults
and enter the world of work.
The science and technology plan
focuses on helping youth learn to
use scientific competencies to

Plans m ade for d evelop m en t program
Oregon's
4-H
Youth
Development Program is making
plans for the future. During the
past four months, county agents
and
specialists
with
the
Extension Service at Oregon
State University have been
developing plans that will stretch
to the year 2000.
According to Jim Rutledge, state
4-H program leader, the focus of
this four-year plan is helping
young people and their families
prepare for successful futures as
leaders in their communities.
The statewide four-year plan of
work, that covers 1997 through
2000, includes four broad areas
of
emphasis:

decisions,
and
use
new
technology appropriately, In this
plan, young people will be
looking at many of their
traditional animal science and
home economics projects to see
how they can improve the value
of their projects.
The goal of the environmental
stewardship plan is help youth
and their families increase their
knowledge of the natural world
so they can make educated
choices about the stewardship of
our natural resources. Young
people in these programs will be
looking at all sides of issues such
as salmon habitat restoration,
water quality, forestry education,
and the relationship between
rural and urban environments.

Chamber Chatter
By C lau d ia H ughes. C h a m b e r M a n ag er
There are a couple of ways to
lose one's life: one is to die and
move on to whatever our greater
being has in store for us and the
other is to lose your daily planner.
The f irst day it's missing, you're
sure you know where you left it;
the second day as you check
everywhere you can think of,
stress starts to build; the third day,
it's nothing less than panic; the
fourth day, you call all the
businesses in town.
Ask yourself, what is the worst
thing that can happen if you don't
find this? Well, for one thing, you
may have program speakers
scheduled at the same time, you
miss all your meetings, forget
your appointments, fall behind in
your bills, skip deadlines, and just
generally lose it.
So, what are your options? You
can take out a full page ad in the
Gazette requesting 'your life
back' with an offer of a large
reward, or you can beg anyone
'finding your life' to just take
over. You might also decide that
you will only do those things you
can remember without writing
them down. (That would free up a
lot of my time.) Then, there is the
option my daughter suggested:
"Just start a new life, mom."
Well, 'my life' was found. It's
for sure no one would be crazy
enough to want it for themselves.
But, then, I probably wouldn't
want theirs either. My daughter's
suggestion lingers in the back of
my mind, but in the meantime,
gotta meet those deadlines'.
Sony, I can't tell where I found it!
Next week: Chamber business
meeting; all entities report.
