CLOSED July 20 & 21 AND July 27 & 28 Looks like all thV» ex travagance folks a been in- dulgin' 'emselves, finally caught up wi' 'em. Th' idee seems t' be that they only have what they need, but it's odd how th' mind gits used t' thinkin' about what's needed in order t' live, an' what's necessary t' pervide extra comforts. It's fine t' be able t' afford common comfortable living an' folks can't be blamed fer en- joyin' whatsoever they c'n pervide. But it's the careless attitude that's developed, toward most everthin' 1 th' lack o' effort t' make things last. Childern ain't taught t' take care o' aijiythin', seems t' me, in my observations. One thing is, they have too much, an' develop an' attitude that sre's more when those 're 5ne. Me own nephew was a scuffin' th' toe o' his new shoes. When I cautioned him he said, "Oh, Dad '11 buy me some more," Th' general attitude seems t' pervade th' younger set, an' I know that boy hain't been brought up that way. One thing that's been a botherin' this granny fer a long, long time, is th' extravagant use o' paper. Everthin' needs t' be bagged, an' double-bagged. In me own day, we used t' save big boxes, put 'em in th' wagon we played wi', an' tote 'em t'jth' store on Saturday, t' carry th' groceries home. I don't know how t' solve th' problem fer t'day's needs, but ye c'n bet that if we don't have all th' paper bags t' use, they'll have t' do somethin' about it. All th' boxesthatth' stock comes in git burned up. Seems t' this ol' lady that there must be some way t' save, 'stead o' reducin' it t' ash. It took ol' Mother Nature a long, long time t' pervide so much, but it's only taken a few short years t' induce th' supply t' where we're beginnin' t' hurt. Seems ridiculous t' use up thousands o' gallons o' fuel, fer racin' cars, an' all th' things that don't do any good fer mankind. I'm a wonderin' where man places his values, these days. Guess the time o' reckonin' has come, a time t' stop, take a look about, an' begin t' appreciate th' little things enough t' take care o' 'em, an' not take so much fer granted. Grandma Radtke THE LARRY COOKS Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran church, McHenry, was the setting for the Friday, July 13, wedding of Kathy Ann Mueller and Larry Paul Cook.
