GATES

from Phoenix, Ariz. The cafe
is open 24 hours a day which
is different for the area.
Mr. and Mrs Earl Loucks,
Pearl Oliver, Ruby Brisbin
and Mary Stafford went to
Gresham last week to attend
funeral services for Mrs. Elsie
Myers. While living in Mill
City, Mrs. Myers had been a
member of the Methodist
Church, The Ladies Aid, WWI
Auxiliary and a Rebekah for
several years.
Tank Myers of Seattle, ar
rived last Thursday to spend a
month visiting with his sister,
Mrs. Mary Stafford, and two
brothers, Louis and Gilbert.
He tries to time his visit here
to take in hunting season each
year.
Thursday, October 12, is
Home Extension meeting day

The field trip of Mr. Lonn-
quist and Miss South’s second
graders last week on Wednes
day was cut very short. They
had no more than arrived at
the Stayton Cannery where
they were going on a tour

der celebrated his 7th birth
day. This Thursday Kristi
Lengacher will be celebrating
her birthday.
Looks as though our beauti
ful fall sunshine has deserted
us, we can hope it is only tem
porary, but being October we
can expect considerable rain.
This would have probably
been better weather for the
hunters than the beautiful
weather over the weekend.
Mr. and Mrs. Walter Thomas,
Sr. and Chris left Friday af-!
temoon for Central Oregon I
for dee,? hunting, beginning
Saturday in the McKay Creek
area.
They spent Saturday
night at Round Mountain and
in all the territory they cov
ered never saw a live deer
Coming home Sunday they
counted 23 bucks on cars and
pickups, so there were at
least that many successful
hunters the first weekend.
They said the scenery was
really enjoyable with the trees
all dressed up in their fall
colors. One road they were
traveling was under construc
tion and they had to take a
detour which took them by
an old, old mine they hadn’t
discovered before so they
stopped off to explore it for
awhile. It twisted and turned
back into the hill about 300
ft. Their rock hunting was
much more successful than
their buck hunting.
Lewis Hampton, Jr., son of
Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Hampton,
Sr., celebrated his fifth birth
day Monday with a party. His
cake, made by his aunt, Jose
phine Hampton, was decorated
like Fantasy Land. Helping to
make it a memorable occas
ion for Lewis was a telegram
from Germany from his Uncle
and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Alferd
Bush. And that wasn’t all, He
also got a telegram from Mex
ico from his grandparents, Mr
and Mrs. Frank Garcia.
Floyd and Laurel Johnson’s
daughter and husband, Jim and
Frances of Woodburn, brought
their son Jimmy up Friday
evening and spent the night.
They went over to Bend Sat
urday leaving Jimmy to go
hunting with his grandfather.
They reported no luck.
Hollis and Catherine Turn-
idge left early Saturday morn
ing for Central Oregon for
hunting. They stayed overnight
and since the hunting was so
poor, Hollis fished and got
his limit. They were very tas
ty, too, as I can verify.
The Travelers Cafe, after
being closed for a couple of
months, was reopened this
last Friday. The new owners
are Phil and Elizabeth Wilson

Before winter really sets in, it's a good idea
to look around your home to see how you can
make it more comfortable for the cold months
ahead. Here are a few tips that wilt help keep
your home warm—and save on electricity, too.
Keep the cold air out
With proper insulation, you can reduce heating
costs as much as 40%! Check your doors and
windows for drafts, too. Weather stripping,
storm windows and doors, or insulating glass
all help reduce heat loss.
Check your heating system
Make sure it’s in good working order.
If you have a central heating system, flues
should be cleaned, belts checked and
adjusted, motors and pumps lubricated and
combustion units adjusted.
Check your furnace filters
They should be cleaned or replaced in the
fall and periodically during the heating season
No matter what fuel your automatic central
heating system uses, it still requires electricity
to run the fan motors that force warm air
throughout your house. If your filters are dirty
or clogged, these motors work overtime, which
causes unnecessary wear and uses more
electricity.
Draw your drapes at night
They help insulate your windows—and your
house—from the cold night air.
Keep your thermostat at a comfortable
setting. Turning it up won't help to heat your
home any faster. It only wastes heat when the
temperature is raised above the comfort level
Thermostats shouldn't be turned down more
than 8° during the sleeping hours. Drastic
set-backs use more heat in the long run.
Keep your fireplace damper dosed
A tight-fitting damper keeps heat from going
up the chimney when the fireplace is not in use.
Glass doors on your fireplace also will
reduce heat loss
Check your water heater temperature
Make sure the thermostat is set near 150’
You’ll get water hot enough for all your
household needs and you'll keep your water
heater working at maximum efficiency and
economy Higher temperature settings may
cause faucet washers to wear out more often.
Fix leaky fauceta
A leaky hot water faucet makes your water
heater work overtime. So you waste gallons ol
hot water—and electricity, too.
And use electricity wisely
Remember to turn off lights in rooms you re
not using. Turn off the TV. radio and stereo
when you're not around, too.
Have a warm and wonderful winter!
