Memories ofthe Past When the great one comes to judge upon your name He cares not whether you won or lost But how you played the game. This saying hung in the late doctor MacArthur's waiting room in his Blackstock offices. While I was waiting for my fa- ther the phone rang and a teen- ager asked the Doc to come out to umpire a ball game as he had two teams ready to play. The Doc said "I'll be along in about 10 minutes. Good memories never die. Firemen don't forget your as- sociation meeting this Sunday. Joke of the Week - A woman told a psychiatrist that her hus- band thought he was the Lone Ranger. "How long has this been going on?" asked the shrink. "About 15 years." Bring him in and I'll cure him. The woman nodded "That would be the right thing to do," she con- ceded. "But Tonto is so good with the children." Saying of the week on motiva- tion. The inner thought coming from the heart represents the real motives and desires. These are the causes of action. : Raymond Holliwell. Sorry to hear Mabel is back in the hospital. Best wishes Mabel. Hope everyone enjoyed a safe and happy long week- end.
