\ Grandma Sez . Some thin' I heard on the radio, 'tother day, about family togetherness comin' back in style, made me feel purty good Along wi' a lot o* folks, who've lived a few years, this grandma kntws how important it is fer civilizations all o'er the world, in fact, t' have their social structures united in promotin' good government fer the people. In order t' find men an' women wi' regard fer human rights an' privileges, in the pursuito' happiness, freedom t' worship in a manner suited' to their needs, t' live in peace an' harmony, wi 'out fear a n' terror in the heart, we have t' produce •em. They come from families, united in the endeavor o' "Family Togetherness," happy, peaceful existence in the family unit. A family can't exist together, w'out lovin' consideration on the' part o' each member. Parents need t' realize that one o' the important things, t' in­ clude in the rearin' o' the off­ spring, is respect fer the rights, an' properties, o' the other members o' the family. YaungurK need t' learn this from infancy. It's too late, t' leave it until they're old enough t' go t' school. By then, they've formed purty good idees about what they ken git away wi , an' it puts a load on a teacher, who runs up agin the problem o' puttin' the right idees inter little heads. One o' the most worrisome problems, these days, is that o' individuals who dare t' intrude inter private properties, takin' what-60-ever they want, wi'out qualms o' conscience, ap­ parently. Seems t' me, that they weren't impressed, as they developed, by the right teachin'. Neglect o' parents, t' instill in young minds, the idees, necessary t' maintain a sane an' safe society, seems almost criminal, itself, t' the mind o' we elders, who've lived t' see the times change, where we can't feel safe in our own homes. When younguns 're taught, right in the home, from in­ fancy, the important human consideration o' the othe*l*"% members o' the family, seems t' me that they ain't a goin't' grow up wi' inconsideration o' others, when they git out inter the world, on their own. There's been a breakdown o' family togetherness, like ne'er existed afore. Twas right shockin', t' us older folks, who'd been brought up in closeness o' family livin', t' see the family mealtime disappearin'. That used t' be the time fer family com­ munication. Folks used t' find it pleasurable t' sit about the table, after the meal was o'er, an' discuss the problems o' the day. Seems t' me that the "Tube" *s had a lot t'-do wi' breakin' up •the family circle, as we used t' know it. That commodity ^ responsible fer a lot o' things we don't cotton to, in our society o't'day, seems t' me. It* had a greater influence on us than some folks care t' realize, an' it hain't all been good,by a long shot. Seems that we've produced a different breed o' younguns since that media came inter existence. But it does me heart good, when I hear, cm the redio, an' read the writing o' wise men an'women, bringin't'attention the need fer more wisdom an' better judgment, in puttin' afore the young minds the informative material they absorb, by sittin' in front o' the most impressive source o' learnin' the world has ever known. The term, "Brain-washin"', sends a chill through the veins, but it's accomplished so easily, an' wi'out pain, every day, an' ifsgittin'a bit late t' repair the damage done, already, fer many a lad 'r lass. Seems t' a lot o' us "Old-fashioned thinkers" that young parents better be on their guard, an' take the important steps t' pertect their babes from the contamination o' materials, which ken poison the mind, an' ruin an entire lifetime.

APRIL 21 Rummage Sale Zion The Crowning Touch POET'S CORNER "I WASN'T THERE" It wasn't I that day "O LORD" Who nailed You to a Cross. Who pierced Your hands with iron SPIKES For a sinful world so lost. Lord You know I wasn't there that day When with thorns they crowned Your head. Or, when they handed to You a cup of gall When You asked for water instead. I didn't stone You with stones O' Lord Or cause You a burden to bear. It WAS SOME ONE ELSE WHO DID THESE THINGS For Lord I wasn't there. I wasn't one of the crowd on the road Who mocked and taunted You. Butitseems I heard, when You whispered these words 'They know not what they do." You paid the price as we all know On a cross of suffering and shame. Who of us can look upon Your face And say I am not to blame. It is the same today, as it was even then In my heart O'Lord I have lied. Iwas in the crowd thatwatched thatday When You were so crucified. For today I admit, thatlama poorsinner, Forgiveness is just now my plea. I did make mock and taunt You LORD In that far dff GALILLEE. It was my hand that stoned You LORD Your CROSS should have been my load. I did drive the spikes into Your heart From which Your Life's blood flowed I did drive the nails into Your poor hands And I caused You anguish and pain. But I'll try my best, from this day forth To show that You died not in vain.

Immediately she thinks of an abortion as the easy way out. That can be more trying than she wants to admit. Andy (Darren O'Conner), only sixteen, attempts to make the right contacts but this sensit ive boy experi­ ences great stress when faced with this adult prob­ lem. Rosalind's parents, play­ ed by Phyll is Newman and Lloyd Bridges, aren't exact­ ly the concerned parents. B u t t h e p h y s i c i a n ( T o m Ewell) and druggest (Tom Bosley) are well placed in their parts. In seeing this "GP-rated f i lm" the very young should realize sex is best saved until they're more mature. It 's a fi lm that is honest, humorous and a bit sad--all in the right places.
