Page 4 ■r. * The INDEPENDENT, July 13,1994 Spar Tree Restaurant reopens with Gloria back in the kitchen In recent weeks, the Spar Tree Restaurant has closed its doors only to reopen with a familiar face on the scene. G lo ria A tc h le y has re turned to run G loria's Spar Tree Restaurant, after a two year absence in which the b u s in e s s was le a se d to someone else. Many people who patron ize d the re s ta u ra n t from 1987 to1992 will be pleased to know that she returns with renewed vigor for the future of the business as well as for the good, hom e cooked meals with generous portions that likely stand out in your memory. Part of her menu will in c lu d e hom em ade pies, cakes and, yes, cream pies to satisfy the sweet tooth. Also returning to the busi ness is S herry Peck, who was a w a itre s s th e re for many years . However, Gloria has drawn from her own fami ly to locate a manager. Atch ley’s daughter, Shauna Bai ley, will have that title. The doors opened on July first at twelve noon and quite evident was the team -work th a t allo w ed it to happen. Members of Atchley’s family looked somewhat frazzled as they added finishing touches to the building. The restaurant will be open Tuesday through Thursday 5 a.m.-8 p.m., Fridays 5-9, Sat urdays 8-9 and Sundays 8-8, w ith M onday being th e ir closed day. Atchley adds that if Monday is a holiday, the doors will be open and the "o ff” day w ill be Tuesday. There will be daily specials for breakfast lunch and din ner, breakfast served all day and during hunting season will be open at four a.m. Sherry Peck, Gloria Atchley and Shauna Bailey.

Gratteri’s Les Schwab tire store in Forest Grove has be gun offering tire service to those who can't bring their vehicles to the shop, by ob taining a truck which will al low them to go to the location of a job site and perform the same service that would be available at their store. The service man who will be attending to the upper Ne halem valley is no stranger to either the tire repair business or the area. He is Bruce Hep- ler, of Vernonia, and many who require mobile services already know him. Hepler is a veteran in the tire business, having w orked fo r C row n Zellerbach for fifteen years in that capacity; then leaving there and continuing for the last eight years at Gratteri’s. Hepler won’t be alone in his efforts to serve the area; he w ill be joined by Chris M c Glothen, another G ratte ri’s employee who knows the val ley well. The m obile s e rv ic e w ill provide the same quality ser vice that G ra tte ri’s has o f fered for twenty-three years, focusing on heavy-duty tires and com m ercial b a tte rie s. Hepler or McGlothen will be attending this area every Fri day. The service will be ex panded to include another day, if the need should arise. For now, how ever, if you should need their services for lo g g in g eq uipm e nt, farm equipment or any heavy ma ch in e ry, ca ll G ra tte ri’s at (503)357-3136.
