I I I I I Eveiyday Low Prices On CIGARETTES 344 REG. & KINGS PER CARTON BENFFRANKLIN Your Friendly L Big Enough To Be Complete Fashion Store • Small Enough To Give You Service 1 I I I I • I I Grandma Sez , This mornin' I wuz a readin' my paper an' came across a cartoon, wi' which I wuz im­ pressed. It referred t' all the nations o' the world, carryin' their own weight, an' it brought t' mind the facts 0' the way in, which this country wuz started. If it hadn't a been fer the kind 0' folks, who dared t' brave the wilderness,' an' the hardships they endured, this country wouldn't be here, in the richness an' real luxury fer the workin' folks, enjoyed t'day. It takes a certain kind 0' perseverance an' character, t' exert the willpower, an' stick- to-it-iveness it takes t' set a goal an' stay wi' it, long enough t' see it accomplished. The weak ones 're left by the wayside, an' there's always the ones who seem t' feel thet the world owes 'em somethin'. Seems t' me, thet some 0' the spunky independence, in the nature o' some folks, was implanted into their minds from infancy. The most im­ portant trait t' encourage, t' my mind, is responsibility. The home's a place where, if everyone shucks his 'r her obligation t' the keepin' 0' the household, younger members, an' wherever the need may be, the load falls on the mother, or another brother 'r sister. I've seen young parents pickin' up toys, clothing, books an' anythin' that happens t' belong t' the youngun', an' sayin' they'd rather do it, than t' have t' persever in makin' the youngun do it. If they could only realize that the greatest in­ justice wuz bein' done t' the child, perhaps they'd be more diligent in trainin' the little one t' be responsible 'fer his own possessions, an' little messes made in playin'. One argiment I git is that the youngster's too young. The time t' begin is as soon as the tike kin understand the language. Ye'd be purty sur­ prised at how much a babe kin learn, they're smarter than ye think. The kind o' folks our parents turn out, depict the kind o' country '11 be the future America. Charitable attitude toward one another, doesn't mean encouragin' charity, an' welfare aid. The greatest help one gives, is helpin' the other feller t' be independent, an' assume his own respon­ sibilities. Many times have I heard parents say they wuz a goin't' give their children more than they ever had. But the fallacy o' them words lies in the kind o' what-so-ever they give 'em more of. If it's more love an' understands', teachin' 'em t' be upstandin', honest, con­ siderate 0' others, an' responsible kind 0' folks, all well an' good. But if parents think they kin turn out better people by pervidin' ever'thin', an' doin' fer them, they'll find they made the mistake o' their lives. Ye can't expect a youngun t' be fed an' clothed, an' pervided fer, wi'out any obligation t' take some o' the responsibility himself, an' suddenly, when he, 'r she's old enough t' be let loose in society, assume the proper role of an accountable adult. The kind 0' a country one lives in, depends on the kind o' folks who run it. Many 0' the troubles, besettin' us t' day, lies in the kind 0' bringin' up some folks had, in their early years. No harm ever came from usin' the guide rules in the Good Book. The trouble is that many folks twist those teachin's t' suit their personal in­ terpretation 0' 'em. Seems like there's so many folks on this old earth, nowdays, that it'd be im­ possible t' change things, but if everyone started now, t* make a better world, it's serprisin' how fast it'd happen. Societies, all over the world, have their special cultures. Until we kin turn out the finest the world has ever known, my opinion is that we better not try t' interfere wi' the others. Seems t' me that others were better off, "Doin' their own thing," an' livin' their own way, before they began t' adopt many 0' our ways. Each one to his own way o' life, an' each nation a tryin't' turn out better younguns, wi' high moral values, could change the world in short order. Old Uncle Sam had t' learn a hard lesson, an' the same old adage still holds good, that "Offered services have a bad odor." He ain't done the world a big favor, an' has made a lot o' mischief himself, by not stayin' close t' home and* keepin' his own linen clean an' 'tendin't' his own knittin'. There's so much that parents kin do, t' help right the wrongs, that it's amazin', but seems that they're so deep in the forest, they cain't see the trees. Some cain't seem t' realize that, one day, the babes '11 be grown men an' women, on their own.

HOLIDAYS ON THE WAY The National Dairy council suggests: M> cup whole cranberry sauce folded into xk cup marshmallow cream makes a delicious topping for ice cream. To make pumpkin or min­ cemeat pie really tops, stir up this spicy sour cream topping. Combine 1 cup sour cream (commercial), 3 tbsps. brown sugar and 1 tsp. nutmeg. Cover and store in refrigerator. WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT WOMEN? The October issue of the Journal of Home Economics asks: "What do you know about women?" -The American woman today lives in a world where most of the 800 million illiterate inhabitants are women. -To match the income of a white family with one bread­ winner, the Negro family must have three earners bringing home pay envelopes. -Thirteen per cent of all white children and forty-nine per cent of all nonwhite children are members of poor families. -If a poor mother in the ghetto needs a doctor for her sick child, she has only one-fifth to one-half the chance of other city residents of locating one. These figures are taken from a leaflet which can be pur­ chased from the Bureau of Communications, National Board YWCA, 600 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York 10022.

Keep these pointers in mind to^ make the selection easier and wiser. -The latest publicity by consumer education groups emphasizes the importance of buying DURABLE toys. Check construction to see if you think the toy will break or come apart easily. - Electric toys should carry the UL Seal of approval on the toy and cord. -- Painted toys -- was lead- free paint used? their characteristics, U.S. grades of Christmas trees, tips on selecting a tree and Christmas tree care. It suggests look for quality; fresh, clean, healthy, well- trimmed, good shaped trees; and to be sure of freshness: firm needles ~ not brittle, strong fragrance and good green color. If you would like a copy of Home and Garden Bulletin No. 189, call the McHenry County Cooperative Extension Service at 338-4747. - Detachable parts - are they large enough not to be swallowed? Are they free of sharp, cutting edges? -- Avoid toys of glass or plastic that will create sharp edges when broken. Toys mean fun, but they also have other functions important to the user. They can be a developing tool for motor abilities and coordination. -- An educational tool to learn about numbers, geography or words; social contacts and interpersonal relationships. - A means of developing hobbies and finding careers. If you're in a quandry as to what toy fits what age group, check the manufacturer's suggestion on the package. Many games are available for adults or adaptable to them. Games that challenge the wit as well as physical capability are generally enjoyed. If you are looking for toys and games remember, too, to choose what the individual will like.
