might be easy to overlook
the importance o f small

said Sykes. “While these
lo ca l p a p e rs m ay not
provide the big viewership
of larger media, they offer
what no one else has, a look
into the day-to-day life in
small-town America.”
“Historic newspapers
supply vital evidence of
our history and culture
and are used by students,
scholars, historians, arts
groups, businesses, urban
p lan n e rs, g e n e a lo g ists
and others,” Estlund said.
“ These prim ary source
materials provide a window
into the life of local Oregon
communities a century or
more ago, covering early
environmental preservation,
in d u s try , a g ric u ltu re ,
urban development,
Native American and race
relations, the establishment
of the state and more.”

“The full text available

will a researcher need to

FBLA to sell holiday pies
H e p p n e r ’s Fu t u r e
Business Leaders of
America (FBLA) is once
again making Thanksgiving
pies to sell. The pies are
$12 each this year. The
group offers many varieties
to choose from, including
apple, cherry, pecan, mixed
berry, pum pkin, peach,
banana cream , coconut
cream and Oreo pie.
The group will stop
taking orders on Nov. 20
or when they get orders for
60 pies, whichever comes
first. The pies will be made
Nov. 22-26.
The FBLA members
can deliver, or people can
pick up pies at Heppner
High School on Tuesday
and Wednesday, Nov. 26-
27, by 10 a.m.
The group says they
will freeze certain pies
so they can be cooked at
home, except for pecan
and pumpkin pies, which
will be made and baked
closer to Thanksgiving. The
cream pies will be delivered
w ithout whipped cream
topping due to the tendency
of the whipped cream to
separate from the pie.
Anyone interested in
purchasing pies is asked to
call the school at 541-676-
9138 and ask for Jeannie
Collins with questions or
to place an order.
