GATES 3—The Mill City Enterprise, TTiuniday, July 8, 1971 Idanha Celebrates Postal Service Day Betty Kelle Phone 897-28I5 Mr« Cress Cullison went to see the play “I Remember Mama” at the Pentacle thea tre between Salem and Dallas, accompanied by her daughter- in-law, Kathy Cullison. She then spent the nieht at Kathy’s home in Aumsville. Mrs. John Cupps and two children spent one day last week at the home of her mo ther. Mrs. Mabel Devine. The Cupps are living in Sweet Home but John is working in Corvallis. Ray Gordan, who works for Redmond Industries and Paul Briggs went to Tacoma for three days this past week to repair mobile homes for a dealer in that area. They en joyed the heated pool where they stayed and one evening went roller skating. Paul savs the floor is hard. Up from Albany for the weekend were Mrs. Pearl Bro then and daughter, Beverly, visiting at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Peder son. They spent part of the time putting up some strawber ries. Spending a quiet Fourth at home were Mr. and Mrs. G. J. Geston with guests Mr. and Mrs. Fouts from Cottage Grove. Last Saturday until Wednes day the Robert Levons and Lori spent at Lincoln City. They reported nice weather the whole time. Some clouds and of course wind, but as long as no rain, it is considered nice weather. Mr. and Mrs. Gary Peterson, Erica, Monica and Aaron spent a week visiting her mo ther, Mrs. Meza, at Long Beach, Ca. While there they took a tour of the Queen Mary. Mary Lou said, “you just can’t imagine how huge it is until you actually see it.” One very nice part of the va cation was the 80° weather, quite a change for them from what we had been having. There was a surprise birth day party last week at the Mel Newberg home for Doro thy’s brother, Roy Kruse. Pre sent were Mr. and Mrs. P. L. Mulligan of Mill City, Roy’s parents, Newberg’s daughter, Penny, and her husband Pete, and three children, Butch, Tina and Mary Ann, also Toni Newberg. The Kruse’s left for home at Redondo Beach, Ca., Monday after a week’s visit here. Tom Drynen and his son, Tommy, took Sea Scouts Gary- Taylor Kim Gabriel, Steve Fohl and Dick Gruver to Mar ion Lake Wednesday for an overnight campout. The fish ing was excellent with most of them limiting out each day. Part of the purpose of the trip was to pull sunken boats out of the lake and burn for the Forest Service. The weather was great. DID YOU KNOW? Seven teen states have a Marion County but only four have a Linn County? The Harold Wilson home was the scene of a double pot luck dinner on the Fourth. There for the occasion were the Robert H. Wilsons and sons, Richard, Robert, Roger and Roy of Portland. Mr. and Mrs. Don Carey and Steven of Stayton and Nellie Allen of Gates were also present. Sunday morning early risers (and I do mean early—like 5 a. m.) found themselves without water. A call to the mayor, Lorraine Mills, and then to Marvin Edwards soon had it going again. Several past residents of Gates stopped by to say hello over the holiday, among them being Mr. and Mrs. Art Bas sett, now of Tillamook, who used to have the Union Sta tion. Also here were Mrs. Ro- ella Haywood of Portland and her son-in-law and daughter. The home of the Paul Ha gens was the scene of a large family picnic on the Fourth. Among those present were Maxine's mother, Mrs. Katie Oeder from Salem; an uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Lincoln of Costa Mesa, Ca. This gathering was partly in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln who were celebrating their 58th wedding anniversary. Others there were cousins, Ro bert Lincoln of Portland; Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln Eoder, of Lebanon, and their daughter- in-law and three children; Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Oeder and children of Albany; Mr. and Mrs. Emil Haerouff of La comb and Elbert Oeder from California. All-in-all there were 23 of them and even though they were able to have their picnic lunch outside, the cool breezes finally drove them inside, to enjoy the fire in the fireplace. Debra Abrantes has stayed on at the home of John Roten for a couple of weeks’ visit with her cousin. Judy, after HQ BULL'S EYE! A.
