Put your name on a
brick for Shay Park
To the Editor:
The first bricks for Shay Park
will be picked up this week and
delivered to the engraver. You
can still order a brick by calling
503-429-5201. The bricks will
be placed around the historical
Shay engine.
There is a sample brick in
the window of the old JC Pen

Bridge St. and Madison Ave., if
you would like to see what it will
look like. Thanks to all who
have ordered so far.

Appreciates learning
from good people
To the Editor:
I would like to thank every
one for the support and help I
received in becoming a part of
Vernonia. The many “People”
who helped me to become car
ing, in the way that it happened,
to pass along what I was given.
Many thanks to those who
helped me. I needed help and I
got it from very loving people.
Love, a friend,

Generous mistake is
United Way benefit
listed the value of the trees and
stated that Mr. Fluhrer declined
to accept the value of the trees.
Therefore, they were sending
this amount with an added do
nation from them to United Way
of Columbia County and asked
that we use it to “support the
good work we do in the county.”
The Board of Directors would
like to thank Richen Tree
Farms, Inc. for remembering
the county in which they do
business and tell them publicly
how much we appreciate their
thoughtfulness.
Neighbors
Helping Neighbors was our
campaign slogan, and this
proves it works in our Commu
nity.

To the Editor:
Recently, we received a let
ter from Richen Tree Farms,
Inc. with a check attached. The
letter explained that they had
mistakenly taken a few trees
belonging to Curt Fluhrer while
logging near Clatskanie. They
that an efficient state govern
ment can achieve by support
ing all of Oregon’s industries -
as well as encouraging the de
velopment of new ones.
This was demonstrated on
February 1, when Stein brought
together 13 business leaders
from diverse areas of the econ
omy and the state for her “Get
Oregon Working Again Round
table.” While other candidates
get their ideas from books and
polls, Beverly Stein goes right
