Nyssa Makes Songfesi a Success ( From the Nyssa High Bulldog) Successfulness of school events, such as the recent Hootenanny, is largely dependent upon the students them selves. We are certainly justified in being proud of our Hoote nanny, and judging from the comments of out-of-towners, they seem to share in some of our exuberance. Perhaps NHS has started something which will lead to better re lations between valley schools—at least we’ve started it; now it will be up to another town to continue the idea. Few of us realize the amount of time and work that went into the songfest, but those who donated it certainly ly do! One interesting point was the number of adults in at tendance. Whether they were prompted by mere curiosity or a genuine love of folk songs is debatable, but some are still relating their favorable comments, showing this was not exclusive to the teenager. Events like this show the older generation we aren’t a bunch of hoodlums or juvenile delinquents, and on occa sion, we really can be human, which may come as some thing of a shock to some of them. Let’s show them more of the same! Recreational Facilities Praised The Methodist junior high class held a party Friday evening in the church social hall and was attended by over 30 young area residents, including members of the class and their guests. The recreation room was decor ated with corn stalks, pumpkins, gourds and crepe paper in keep ing with the autumn season. The fall theme was also carried out in refreshments. The youngsters, assisted by their mothers, planned and placed the decorations, prepared refresh ments and selected games to be played. Effie Ellen Smith, teacher of the class, was also present for the party. CATHOLIC CIRCLE MEETS AT BILL WAHLERT HOME St. Teresa’s circle of the Catho lic church met Nov. 6 at the home of Mrs. Bill Wahlert with eight in attendance. During the ses sion, discussion was held on mak ing advent wreaths for home use. Father John Baumgartner showed a film on “The Ten Com mandments.” Refreshments were served by the hostess at the close of the meeting. EPISCOPAL LADIES VOTE TO ADOPT INDIAN CHILDREN Members of the Episcopal guild met Nov. 6 in the Grant Rinehart home. The ladies planned a ba zaar and dinner to be held Dec. 8 in the church and voted to adopt some children in India and will finance their education in a day school for one year. BRADY VISITS MOTHER Gene Brady of Boise visited Tuesday with his mother, Mrs. J. I. Brady. The former is a sales man for Premier Auto Ware and travels to various towns in the northwest. Aiding Heart Attack Victim To help someone who may be suffering a heart attack: Sum mon a doctor immediately; keep the patient quiet, warm but not hot and as comfortable as poss ible, the Oregon Heart association advises. (From the Nyssa High Bulldog) Have you bothered to look around at our parks lately? Nyssa is certainly fortunate, for a town of its size, to have three parks with recreational facilities. At the new park by the river at the entrance from Idaho, there are camping facilities for travelers, and al ready there have been tents and trailers seen taking ad vantage of the new accommodations. There was a lot of work done at the north park this summer. Baseball diamonds were set up for the summer baseball program. Swings and other recreational equip ment are put to full use by the youngsters and now they don’t have to cross Main Street to play in a park. Of course the old south city park still gets put to use. Many improvements are shown here, too. City Manager Art Colby and other city employees are to be commended on the fine job they have done for Nyssa by improving our recreational facilities to such a fine standard. Ontario Church Holds Spiritual Life Study Dr. Gertrude Boyd Crane of Portland is leader for spiritual life study, "Teachings Toward Christian Perfection," being held tonight and tomorrow evening in the Ontario Methodist church.

Visit Your Schools November 10-16 IT'S YOUR LAW By Oregon State Bax Church Ladies Plan Friendship Packets For Needy Children Difference Discussed Between Copyright, Patent Law Coverage Reports on Projects Alert observers frequently no tice that some articles are patent Heard at Meeting ed, while other seemingly similar Of Methodist Ladies items are copyrighted. The ques tion accordingly arises as to what constitutes the difference be tween a patent and a copyright. Patents are granted to inven tors on new and useful articles of manufacture, compositions of matter, methods and processes, ornamental designs of articles of manufacture and certain types of plants. Copyrights are granted to au- thors, composers or artists on works such as books (which in- elude not only bound volumes, but also pamphlets, leaflets and even single sheets), periodicals, speeches, plays, musical composi tions, phonograph records, works of art, maps, photographs and motion pictures. Some articles are difficult for an untrained observer to classify. Printed forms are an example of such articles. If the form is a card or sheet having a peculiar shape or a physical structure (such as per forations or notenes in certain positions) that adapts the card or sheet for a particular use, so that it amounts to a new article of manufacture, the card or the sheet would constitute a sub ject for coverage by patent ra ther than by copyright. If the same or another card or sheet bears graphic matter such as a written text, a compilation of figures or of other data, a chart or a diagram, the graphic matter (distinguished from the card or sheet itself) would be subjected to coverage by copyright rather than by patent.
