Wi' Thanksgivin', next on th' calendar, folki b*gin t' think up all kinds o' specialties t' make th' feast one t' r'member. In this day, when it takes so much t' keep a family goin', many'U find it difficult t' pervide th' festive feast. Ne'er-th'less we c'n be thankful that we abide in this land, where we, still, live in some sort o' freedom from oppression. Little by little, it seems, we ha' less t' say about our way o' life, but we're fortunate to be in our b'loved America. >Wi' all th' years, piled up b'hind this ol' lady, there's a big sadness in me heart, in surveyin' things, as they stand t'day. Pity is, th' young folk don't know any be t te r , an ' accept i t a l l f ' r what it's worth. Brought up wi' 'frugal parents, guess me mind works a bit different, an' then, havin' made it through th' tough depression, wi'out me man t' help, th' habit o' a bein' economical in all things grew t' be th' guide. T' see so much extravagnce practiced, o'er these past few years was appallin' t' this granny, an' many a time me mind recalled those words me father used t' say, when we was wasteful, "willful waste breeds woeful want." Seems that is what's about t' happen, as' th' bal loon *11 burs t one day , an ' then what? Me thinks it's time, as we're about t' partake o' th' sumpt ious bounty , ^ th i s Thanksgivin' Day, we make a vow t' be more careful o' th' way we use th' blessin's bestowed upon us; t' be more appreciative o' what we enjoy in this land, where men are still en joy in' a semblance o ' f reedom; where children may still be th' wards o' biological parents, reared in th' doc­ trines handed down through generations. ' So, wi' thoughtful hearts, we approach "Thanksgivin' Day," wi' a prayer that time may yield th' necessary wisdom t' make th' world a better place f'r humanity, everywhere. A happy Thanksgiy in ' Day, t' one an' all. Grandma Radtke Only aim to do your duty, and mankind will give you credit where you fail. r •% -Thomas Jefferson. MR. AND MRS.
