Mr. Waldene Sparks. Mr. Sparks, (he prefers to be called Sparky) and his wife Ellen moved into the Ontario area over a year ago. They were living in Los Angeles, where Mr. Sparks was the director of Labor Relations for the Monolith .Portland Cement Company. After liv ing in L.A. for five years, the big city life did not leave much to be desired for the interest of both he and his wife. We asked, what brought him into theOntario areaTHe went on to say about a couple of years ago. he and his wife visited friends who retired in the Fruitland area. The area was very appealing to both Sparky and Ellen. It was agricultural, small town, and reminded Sparky ot his home town in central Kansas. When they both returned to L.A., the thought of retiring in the Ontario area seemed to grow more appeal ing as the time went on. He and Ellen decided to buy a house with some acreage and it took him five visits to Ontario within a year to find his new home. The plans were to work seven more years in L.A. then retire in Ontario. Sparky and Ellen couldn't wait any longer. Sparky resigned from his job, moved, and settled in his Ontario home. M.C.O.A. has definetly benefited from his decision to move to Ontario before re tirement. We are very proud and lucky to have Mr. Sparks to head the M.C.O.A. staff. We are looking forward to work ing together to develop and expand the senior citizen programs in Malheur County. > A4 » r- NO. 2 RUS&ET POTATOES i#
