Grandma Sez - - - Seems like a big shame that the world seems to be headed fer more and more trouble, with so much to be grateful for. Lust fer money, and power, and yearnin' fer the material comforts which modern science has come up with, kin be the downfall & the human race, fer as I kin see. Smarter folks than P re beginning t9 talk about it, and it'll take a bit o* doin' t' git things back onthe right track again, I think. The day, f give thanks t' the Almighty, is camin' and ifs about time thet a lot folks git down and say a prayer o' thanksgiving* fer the fact thet man hasn't, yet, been able f upset the great plan o* the universe, but give him time, and he'll make a good try. With all the things .on this gQgd. old earth, what needs mending it's about time thet mankind putsrft££ ;wh6le Offort into puttin* things right fer the betterment o* the human race. It's about time thet some cf the know-it-all scientists come up with a good idee f straighten out the thinkin' o* the men who control our governments, all over the world. I wuz a readin* about all the bloodshed, and hideous things a goin' on in many parts o* the globe, especially in the orient. It's downright disgraceful thet things kin get t' be so bloodcur dlin' in this day and age, when men 're supposed t' be so well informed. The form o* government, planned by men who 're dead and gone a long time ago seems f be a powerful thing, t' cause so much trouble, and is creepin* like a bad disease throughout the world. Younger folks, who don't even remember teachin's, o" brotherhood and love, have been indoctrinated wi' the bad teachin's & the mongers, and are incited t' act like animals. The important prayer, this Thanksgiving Day, should be a thankful one that, in this country things haven't become as bad as elsewhere, but, we all, must hope and pray that we may be shown the way to eliminate the influences o* the old Devil himself, which is all the things men fight fer, and which will destroy everything if we let things run along. How kin folks be content t' enjoy all the goOd things, and sort & take them fer granted, I wonder, when the greatest part o* the world is sufferin'. May the Great Power, God, grant mankind the wisdom to live in peace and love. Grandma Radtke OTHER BERTHS Alex and Eleanor Wirfs are proud grandparents for the sixth time.
