Nyssa This is the issue when Nyssa mer chants announce to our trade area that they are stocked full of merchandize, at reasonable prices, and »elcome your trade Friday night, the merchants, through the Nyssa Chamber of Commerce, also express to the trade area by means of a free pancake supge-r. that they appreciate the loyalty and business that you the customer have given them during the past year. Last year the Chamber uf Commerce put on this feed for the first time, and it »as so successful that it has become ar annual event And »hat better way can the merchants welcome the Christmas season than through a free dinner for area residents'’ Last year over 1,200 meals were served andcommittee mem bers are getting prepared to serve many more. And the only requirement for admission is that you patronize your local mer chant and pick up a free ticket from him or any other business in Nyssa. Ac added treat this year will be the Christmas music during the meal giver, by the high school stage band and chorus. And to make the start of Christmas really meaningful to the younger set, Santa Claus tumseif »ill arrive during the evening with candy for the youngsters. We in Nyssa can feel most fortunate that »e have the many fine stores in wtucb to shop. Not many small communities have as many mercantile stares, food markets, drug and hard ware stores, and all the other businesses that we have in Nyssa. Low overhead allows our merchants to provide us with quality merchandise at fair and competitive prices, and they all back their products. Free and convenient parking is available, and shopping is easy without walking the long distance sand fighting the crowds in the bigger malls. In most cases you will find just what you are looking for right here m your hometown store. You will save time and money, and more important, you will keep vour money at home where it can do the most tor all of us. We depend on each other in a small town, and without each other we could not exist. That we in this area have supported each other is evident, and the local businessmen are responding in appreciation. Friday evening should be a fun night for all, including those who are turning the butcakes, frying the eggs and cooking the sausage. Emotional Laws (jin Destroy (Editor’s note.

Two years ago the now Governor Andrus beat the then Governor Samuelson. This was supposed to indicate to the rest of the United States that the people of the State of Idaho were in favor of developing Idaho into a great wilderness area. It was supposed to tell the world that the citizens of this state frowned upon building dams for irrigation, flood control, and power. We gave the impression that mining was taboo in Idaho. It appeared as if we all »anted Idaho to stay just as it was. All the election two years ago proved was that Samuelson had made too many enemies in the political field. Jim McClure had always been an advocate of the multiple use of state and federal lands. He hedged on banning dams on the Middle Snake River forever. He objected to setting the White Clouds area aside for back packers only. So the Idaho press got onto his b4ht., «tecordmg to the press, every thing tie advocated »as bad a.- a'^aa^ttued to everything good Tills of course .as just . voiced or. the editorial pages Not all editur^MMpbay but some of the city dailies were of the opinion tha^» McClure should not represent Idaho. Jim was elected by the people of this state and if we were to interpret the vote as before we could come to the conclusion that the citizens of Idaho are not as wild as some suspect in preserving our forests for the sole pleasure of out of state back packers and the Sierra Club. As 1 lave said before, I am not a preservationist. I am a conservationist. 1 believe in using our lands such as mature forests and then replanting them for future generations. 1 think more camp grounds should be built in our forests for the pleasures of those who have neither the time nor ability to backpack. I don’t believe in emotional legislation. DDT was banned in all cases and was never to be legally used again. The Tussock Moth is destroying hundreds of thousands of acres of forest land in Oregon. Nothing much is being done to check the onslaught because nothing effective has been found that will kill the little beasts. 1 have been told that DDT will destroy them but can’t be used because it’s illegal. Now which do we want? Should we spray the Oregon forests with DDT or destroy the forests because DDT , like calcium, builds up in the body? No human has been known to die from DDT. Sometimes it's harder to get a law the books than it is to get one enacted. Emotional laws can be a dangerous thing.
