Family Week is here. Have you planned something special to do with the entire family? This is one of the common faults of our moderA families that ought to be remedied. We never get to know one another in the family even though we sleep under the same roof, and meet occasionally around the dinner table. Each has his own frienda and never the twain doth meet. Frequently as young folk we forget the grand Kuy Dad is, and that after all Mom is full of fun and has lots of great ideas given a chance to use them. So if you haven't had a family night this week why not make Friday one and maybe go to the orchestra concert at the high school and out for a soda afterwords and do it as a family. It is an idea anyway. And dou't forget that Sunday is Mother's Day. Bring her to church and give her the opportunity to show her family off just a little and what better place is there than the church.
