Dinner Dance Sunday GRANDMA SEZ ••• Ye know, the longer I live, the more this o' lady's im­ pressed wi' the wonders o' nature, the magnificent plan that keeps a goin' on, repro- ducin' every kind o' life on the face o' the globe. The whole plan is controlled by the sun an' the moon, an' who knows how many other heavenly bodies. It brings a smile when me hears o' the accomplishments o' man, bein' compared t' the workin's o' the Almighty Pow- „ er. Men built a big kite, t' take 'em t' the moon. That's pretty great, consider in' what a puny part o' the vastness o* creation he is. The thing thet worries me is, there's a lot o stuff a bein' left on the moon, of mineral nature, foreign t* thet body, an' I jist cain't reassure my­ self thet it ain't possible it Id interfere wi' the way lings work, in the future. Thet 1 moon has strong effect on this planet, ye kin bet, when the tides, an' mankind, an' ever- thin' kin be influenced by that pretty silver ball, up there. Somehow, I jist cain't git hep­ ped up about the adventure, and I feel thet, If there wuz as much effort, an' material where-wi'-all, spent on im- provin' life, here on earth, it'd be a whole lot more re- wardin'. Pm of the opinion that man wuz created, as the Bible says, in the image o' God, t' develope spiritually, an t* learn t' live in peace, an' love o' fellow- man. It ain't necessarily so, that because man has a brain which he's learned t' use t' invent all sorts o' things, that it is right an' good fer us all. Man learned t' use his wits t' secure monetary wealth, and the part o' his brain thet ain't developed, is the part that kin learn t' live wi'out considerin' how wealthy he kin become. If there wasn't any profit in war, there wouldn't be any war, ye kin bet. Seems t' me thet man has missed the boat, so t'" speak. He's put his mind on the wrong track. There's a lot o' folks, who cain't git excited about this moon exploration. It ain't jist the elders, either. A lot o' young folks 'd like t' feel that they could start out in life, wi'­ out havin't' finance these huge projects. Mebbe the reason thet so many youngsters're resort- tin't' usin' drugs, is that they're so scared o' the monsters which society has set up fer em' th&t they'd rather face the mon­ strous things tLu come into the mind wi' the use o' the dope, than the unknown results o' man's experimentations wi'na­ ture. I'm not happy about it, an I'm not the ony one who ain't. m also state chairman of Women's^ Committees for U.C.P. of Ill­ inois, the tickets have been sell­ ing well. There are still some tickets available, however. Another highlight of the eve­ ning will be the presence of Carrol Perrin of Harvard and Dougie Femmel of Crystal Lake-the first poster children of United Cerebral Palsy of McHenry county, over twelve years ago.
