We had delicious charcoal broiled pork chops at th' FS buildin', an' j own grard- son was a cookin' 'em, outside. Best part w<*s, their hog-business per Jed a lot of that good eatin'. One thing that impressed this elder was th endeavor, by young folk, t' qualify in exhibitin' th' fruit 0' their labors. It takes care an' patience t' rear younguns in learnin' t' he good homemakeis an' mothers, be able t' pervuk wholesome food f'r a family. It does me heart good t bee lh' effort displayed. Seems t' this ol' lady that all is not lost, after all, an' some folks 're tryin' *t' make use 0' many ol' fashioned ways, tested an' proved t' turn out adults, a credit t' society. Yesterday, me ears perked up, on a hearin' a young woman speaking' on th' TV program, about th' so- called role o' th' modern woman. It did me heart good t' hear her dissertation, bearin' up th' fact that a woman needn't seek work outside th' home, if she really does a good job o' bein' a wife an' mother. Th' job o' motherhood is such a complicated, demandin' occupation, full o' all kinds o' surprises an' th' most int'restin' things one may imagine. Boredom hain't one 0' th' results, if one puts heart in bein' a mother, shapin' th' God- giv'n personality an' talents, t' bring out th' best o'th' youngun, like tendin' a fine rose bush, t' produce th' lovliest blossoms. Each one is different, in his 'r her own special way, an' e'en twins may be so individual in make-up. Identical twins differ, in that, most usually one is of positive nature an' t'other more negative, so that, together, they are complete. ' Mfe heart goes out t' those who try t' rear their young wi' a lot 0' wholesome, ol'fashioned methods, these days, wi' th' influence o' those who have been reared in permissiveness, wi'out proper discipline, an' regard f'r others. Seems t' me, it'll take a long time t' o'ercome th' wrong influences which ha' b'set our young folk. Wi' more emphasis, on th' part 0' those who can contact folks through our wonderful TV media, there's hope that one day, we may, **nce again, have a reasonably decent society, an' those who abhor th' indecency may not fear for th' welfare o' their offspring.
