butts in the sink. And no more secondhand smoke.
Because now smoking doesn’t work in Oregon. And I’m

Heppner's Mural Society
has 200 limited edition prints of
Main Street to be given as gifts
to those who would like to make
a donation to the M ural
Committee in care o f the Farm
Foundation. The smaller prints
will be given to individuals or
businesses that donate $200 and
larger prints will be given for $300
donations.
The donations will fund
the painting o f a mural o f the
same scene on the Agricultural
Museum building in Heppner. The
mural will be 17’ by 100’. Robert
Walton, a well-known artist from
Levinworth, WA, used pictures
from the M orrow C ounty
M useum to recreate a Main
Street scene from 1903. From the
original painting, 200 prints were
made, all with their own print
number, matte and frame. The
original, framed painting will be
given to the first individual or
business to m ake a $6,000
donation. The Morrow County
Arts and Crafts group raised the
money to have the prints made.
Four buildings in the
painting are still standing today:
the building where Klamath First
bank is now was once the First
N ational Bank; the M urray’s
Drug building was The Rock, a
tavern; Gardener's Men’s Wear
was the post office and the IOOF
building was just that in 1903.
The Mural Society will
display the prints at a booth by the
museum during Celebrate Historic
Heppner on Friday, July 26.
