Our Hometown! Our hometown is Nyssa. Ore., located on the east edge of the state, close to the west bank of the Snake river which divides Oregon and Idaho. Population wise, it is not ‘ the greatest,” but the sign on the highway at the city limits reads 2,740. Without us it would read 2,738 — so we count and we’re glad we are Nyssans. For recreation, we bowl at the local lanes, play golf on the nearby Ontario course and occasionally attend a social function at the Eagles hall or just meet and eat with friends. This area is a paradise for hunters, fishermen, camp ers and rock hounds. When we go into a Nyssa store, we usually find pretty nearly what we are looking for — and if a cer tain firm doesn’t have the item, the owner or manager usually offers to order it. With just a little planning ahead, we usually get what we w’ant. As for a leisurely day out of town, we’d rather shop at home and spend a day off doing something that we enjoy. Pounding the streets of a larger city, just to shop, is strictly not our idea oi fun or enjoyment. We have found most residents of Nyssa and the sur rounding area to be very friendly, and feel that in the six years we have been here, we have gained numerous loyal friends. Funny thing about the newspaper business, when you please someone it seems they just expected to be pleased. But when someone is unhappy with something contained on the printed pages, it soon becomes known to the publishers. How’ever, in thinking it over, guess every businessman faces the same situation, be he cafe owner, groceryman or other merchant. We of the human race, all too often, do more griping than we do back patting. When we came here six years and two months ago, we said we would not go back to Northwest Arkansas, from whence we came, until we could feel that we would be coming home to Nyssa. For the past two summers we have had a strong de sire to return to the Razorback state, but only to visit family and friends, and then return to our hometown, Nyssa. — A.B. NOTICE!
