Church will be remodeled for Rescue? Miss/on office

Mission Plans Move Away from Taverns The Walla Walla Rescue Mission is located in a bad place — near too many taverns, the Mission executive director said in an interview recently. Bernard Kluehe said that the present location of the Mission at 120 W. Main makes the mission's work difficult because it is on the "skid row" of Walla Walla. For this reason, Kluehe said the mission will be moving to the old Seventh-day Adventist Church on the corner of 4th and W. B'ich. The mission bought the church property after the city bought the present mission.

672 Receive Property Tax Exemption Some 672 senior citizens or disabled persons in Walla Walla County received exemptions from 1971 taxes totalling $32,590.83, according to County Treasurer Harmon Johnson. Men 65 years of age or older and women at least 62 years old received an $50 exemption on their property taxes if their income was not over $3,000. Persons who retired because of disabilities under a private or public retirement plan also were eligible for this exemption. The deadline for receiving this exemption was April 30. These exemptions were spread among taxing districts as follows: school districts $14^920 28: cities and towns $6,945.34; county current expense fund $3,176,94; county roads $1,087.52; state (including both the levy for public assistance and state school levy) $4,051.74; port district $920.87; fire districts $409.39, and all other governmental units $1,078.75.

Persons who earned more than $1,680 from employment not eligible for the $50 Funeral services for the late were exemption. Donald W. Myers of 512 E.

Kluehe said he thinks the new location will help this problem. "We don't want to be just a sobering up place for drunks," he said. Kluehe said about 70 per cent of the people who come to the Rescue Mission are alcoholics. The director said the mission would still get the same crosssection of people as it does now, but, he added, many of the people who now come to the mission w h e n t h e y a r e intoxicated will, instead, come to the mission when they are sober. The Rescue Mission plans to start construction on a new 25 by 50-foot building this fall. When completed, it will house the kitchen, men's dorm, staff dorm, laundry room, and food storage facility. This latter facility will include a large refrigerator and freezer donated to the mission by Safeway. The mission will also make use of the chapel and the annex n u m b e r of permits and already s t a n d i n g on the estimated total construction cost. Some 24 permits were property.

While the subject was looking help, said Kluehe.

All the facilities of the mission except the office will move to the new location by Sept. 1, said Kluehe. He said he is hopeful that the change will be good for the Mission. "This will make our work easier," he said, "because we won't be as close to the taverns." Kluehe explained that many people now come into the mission directly from the taverns, intoxicated. He said many drunk people just came to the place to sleep. Often, he said, they are bothersome to others.

Construction Starts Valued at $427,391 Construction in the county had its second biggest month of the year in June with 17 permits issued for an estimated construction cost of $427,391, according to Ken Maxson, county building inspector. The county has issued 76 building permits for an estimated construction cost of $1,256,364 for the first half of 1971. Only March was a bigger month than June for the

Playground Equipment Arrives COLLEGE PLACE - Mayor Harlan Seachris has announced that the new playground equipment for Kiwanis Park has arrived and will be installed at once, most of it in the south part of the park. Ordered were four saddle mates, a buck-a-bout, an eagle's perch climber, a merry-goround and two bench swings for adults. The swings and a slide which have seen much use are being repaired. The Kiwanis Park, developed through the years by the local Kiwanis Club, is especially attractive during the hot months because of its many trees and colorful flower beds, the mayor points out. College Place has requested four full-time men through the new Federally-funded work program, according to the Mayor. The program will be implemented under the local employment service. The workers will be assigned under the Public Works department at no cost to the city to jobs in that department.

would be worked out where projects involving grants effecting only those within one county might be approved without going through the fivecounty organization. "But there will definitely be certain federal grants which will require action on the five-county level," he said. In an attempt to get away from the District 12 COG designation the group representing the five counties at Canyon City adopted the name of "Eastern-Central Oregon Association of Counties." They hope to operate with only 10 members on the council, the five judges and one representative from one city in each county. "This," the judge explained, "would keep it from being so large and combersome to obtain action on matters requiring approval of the association." He suggested it could be done by letter or phone rather than calling meetings involving so much driving over long distances.

The town of Mexia in east central Texas celebrated the Fourth as part of a nine-day festival period that also marks the town's 100th anniversary and the 50th anniversary of an oil boom. The town burgeoned to a city of 35.000 during the boom but now has a population of about 6,000. In Oklahoma the Indian powwows included the Kiowa TiaPlah Gourd Clan Society near Lawton, the Ottawa Indiana Pow-Wow at Quapaw and the Paupaw Indian Pow-Wow at Miami. In Oklahoma City an estimated 12,500 persons jammed the state Fairgrounds Arena for the third annual Stars and Stripes Show featuring comedian Bub Hope and other entertainers.

The Fundamental Purpose of the Funeral —

The Most Significant

Function of Your Funeral Director . . .

SERVING THE LIVING Augustine said it about 400 A.D.: "The laying out of the body, the burial rites . . . are more of a consolation to the living than of assistance to the dead." Since that time many others qualified to speak from the religious, psychological, sociological or medical point of view have agreed. A minister who is a leading authoiity on grief, stated: "There are eight specific purposes and values of the funeral that every person should come to know and understand: A funeral faces the reality of death — dots not avoid it; A funeral provides a setting wherein tbt religious needs of the bereaved may be satisfied;

A funeral provides faith to sustain spirit; A funeral helps free one from guilt or self-condemnation; A funeral helps one express feelings; A funeral directs one beyond the death of a loved one to the responsibilities of life; A funeral, in a personal Ivay, helps one face a crisis with dignity and courtgt; A funeral, above all, provides an environment where loving fritnds and relatives can give the htlp needed to face the future with strength and courage."
