'SheriH' of S le • Union County icon remembered for renegade reputation, compassion By Dick Mason The Observer

Union County lost a one-of-a-kind character Monday, a man with a big reputation, an even bigger heart and the possessor of answers to an enduring question. Sam Horrell, known by many as the sheriff of Sammyville, a collection of 14 rented dwellings about six miles northwest of Elgin, died Monday. Horrell, 84, passed away at his home. His health had been failing for several years. Until about four years ago, Horrell was the landlord of Sammyville, a community filled with many people down on their luck and See Horrell / Page 5A

The La Grande Social Security office building, 2205 Cove Ave., was evacuated Tuesday afternoon after a suspicious powdery substance, later determined to be harmless, was found. The Social Security DKce had received the substance in the mail. The suspicious item was reported to the La Grande Police Department at 2:27 p.m. The police and La Grande Fire Chief Bruce Weimer then arrived at the scene. The individual who had been exposed to the material, a Social Security DKce employee, remained in the building to prevent him from possibly spreading the suspicious substance, Weimer satd. Public safety officials then talked to the individual to determine ifhe was suffering any symptoms from exposure to the substance. "We were talking to him on a cellphone," Weimer said.aHe told us that once he was exposed to the material he covered it up and washed himself." Fortunately, the individual did not report sufFeringany symptoms. The man remained See Closure / Page 5A

Another derailment near Virginia caused hundreds of people to beevacuated from thearea after 30,000 gallons leaked into a river and caught fire. In response, the federalDepartment ofTransportation issued an emergency order in May that requiredrailroads to notify localemergency responderswhenever oil shipments traveled through their states, including detailed information about the number of oil trains eachweek and specific routes the trains will travel.

They had previously been under no obligation to discloseany of thatinformation. The order said the number of recent accidents "is startling, and the quantity of petroleum crudeoil spilled as a result of those accidents is voluminous." Other government officials are startled as well.

In January, Jeff Stafford closed Stafford's Custom Meats, a business he ran for decades.

n schools lead nation inpercentage of food budget spent ottlocal foods

WesCom News Servic e staff

Oregon has clearly embraced farm-to-school programs and is poised to increase the impact local foods have in the lives of school children statewide. Results of the first ever U.S. Department ofAgriculture Farm to School Census provide both a national and state-by-state snapshot of related efForts. The assessment shows that Oregon school districts are directing 24 percent of their food budgets to purchase local foods. That's the highest percentage in the country. In addition, two-thirds of all Oregon school districts are participating in farm to school and school garden activities. "It's remarkable to see that one out of every four dollars spent by our school districts on food goes to buy local foods," said Katy Coba, director of the Oregon Department ofAgriculture.'The numbers show a high interest and participation among districts who want to bring the farm to

the school. Now is the time to build on a very solid foundation in Oregon." For the first time, a system is in place to track the impact of farmto-school programs on a state and national basis. At the national level, 44 percent of the school districts responding to the census are operating farm-to-school programs asofthe2012-2013 school year. Another 13 percent of the respondents said they planned to start in the future. Nationally, schools purchased more than

$386 million in local food &om farmers, ranchers, fishermen and food manufacturers. In Oregon, the census shows 82 of the 123 public school districts responding to the survey are involved in farm-to-school programs, representing about 714 individual schools with an estimated 366,066 children in attendance. While school districts in some of the other states might be spending more dollars overall, nobody spends a higher percent-

age of their food budget on local

foods. More than $9.5 million spent by Oregon school districts on food was used to purchase local products. Deborah Kane, the national director for USDA's Farm to School Program, is in a unique position to appreciate what is happening in Oregon. "I was living and working in Oregon as the farm-to-school movement was in its infancy and I was excited to be a part of its growth during that time," Kane said."It doesn't surprise me at all to see Oregon's positive numbers from the census. There is an abundance oflocal growers who canprovide healthy food and tremendous momentum within Oregon schools that are interested in bringing the farm into the classroom and cafeteria. Not only is there interest in farm-to-school programs, there is a high level of participation. I'm very proud of Oregon." SeeCensus / Page 2B

For WesCom News Service

The ultra-fancy cowgirl's wedding dress on display at The Royal Clothiers on Adams Avenue must be a sign of the times. For one thing, it signifies June, the most popular month for weddings. For another, it's one clothing store's way of saying it will try hard to fill a void leR by the upcoming closing of Serendipity, La Grande and Union County's main supplier ofwedding and formal wear. "We've expanded into that area a little, so we can help

people find things locally," said Stephen Barton, who owns The Royal Clothiers with his partner, Marlene Hays. Serendipity owner Kara Rudd made the decision to get out of business about a year ago. She hoped at fi rsttofind abuyerfor the store she started in 2003. The buyernever materialized,and now Rudd is selling her remaining stock at discount prices. Closing is slated for July 31.

eadership is the primary responsibility of those who own businesses. It starts by leading &om the front, not hiding in an office where the owner cannot be seen and is seldom heard. It follows that owners should not wear their heart on their sleeve; after all, who wants to follow an angry, frustrated, unhappy owner? All highly successful organizations that are on the path to somewhere have a vision. That vision is articulated to the people who have a responsibility to carry it out. Does every employee know what that vision is, or do they just work for a paycheck? Those in the company look to the owner first for attitude, and second for a future, which is what a vision is. People look to the owner fora sense ofm ission,a sense of purpose. Only the owner can provide this. A mission is what sets one organization apart &om all the others. The mission states what the organization does. The mission tells everyone what they need to be doing every day. Those who don't know what the mission is need to have it explained to them. Those who need help making sure they understand what they need to do every day to be in alignment with the mission need to be coached. Those who don't agree with the mission need to find another place to earn a paycheck. These are the responsibilities of the owner. A mission statement is not"tomake money."Some owners, unfortunately, don't understand that, and while they may be wealthy, they leadorganizations thatare not built on anything but greed and profit. Owners should control their own attitudes. Attitude is demonstrated in tone of voice, facial expressions, handwriting, posture,handshake, voicemail messages, e-mailing, decision-making and delegatingand management style. Attitude always seeps through. The question is, ''What attitude is seeping through to employees, clients and vendors?" If the owner is so angry, frustrated, unhappy or thsappomted they don't care what their own attitude is, they need a reality check. Decent employees won't tolerate an owner with a lousy attitude. Why should they? They will go somewhere where their efFort is
