The Driver's Prayer
Dear Lord-before I take my place
Today behind the wheel,
Please let me come with humble heart
Before Thy throne to kneel
And pray, that I am fit to drive
Each busy thoroughfare,
And that I keep a watchful eye
Lest some small child be there.
And keep me thinking constantly
When driving past the playground
Zone or by some busy school
Then, when I stop to give someone
His right to cross the street,
Let me-my brother's keeper be
And spare a life that's sweet.
Please make me feel this car I drive
You gave me to enjoy
And that its purpose is to serve
Mankind-but not destroy.

Billy: When the company comes, will I have to eat my cake with a fork?
Mother: Certainly.
Billy: Well, could I have a couple pieces to practice on now? |

Courtesy Is Contagious
Did you ever look up the meaning of Courtesy? It is defined in most dictionaries' as politeness which is exercised habitually.
Many of us know the meaning of this word but we do not exercise it.
When thinking about courtesy we should connect it with the "Golden Rule."
After all, if we are polite to others they will naturally want to be polite to us.
John Galsworthy, the great English novelist, gives us a very good definition of a gentleman: "He has the will to put himself in the place of others; the horror of forcing others into positions from which he would recoil; the power to do what seems to him to be right without considering what others may say or think." |

SONG SHEET
"My Darling", "Ramona,"
"Anytime" we'r apart "I" "Cry" for you. Please "Take Me Back" and "Forgive Me" for "A Fool Was I." "I'd rather Die Young," "Since You Have Left Me" but I guess "It's All- Over But the Memories." That "Jealousy" of mine caused it all when people said, "Have You Heard" her talk about a certain "Dear John." All day I was "Crying In the Chapel" and soon I'll be "Crying Myself to Sleep." "To Be Alone" is just heartbreaking so "Tonight Love" "Say You're Mine Again." "Forgive Me" for thinking that "I" wasn't the "Only One In Your Heart." "If You Were Mine" "Again," I'd say "Fin Yours" "Eternally." "When the Hands of the Clock Pray at Midnight" and "The Moon Is Blue" won't you "Tell Me That You Love Me." "Down By the Riverside." "The Last Time I Saw Paris" I told you of "My Devotion" while we were "In a Garden In the Rain." "Where the
Wind Blows," "East of the Sun" my love will follow you "Night and Day." I know that "When I Was Young" I was "Sorta On the Border" about you, but now I know we're not "Too Young" to really be in love. So "My Darling" "All I Want Is a Chance" so please "Forgive Me."
"Vaya Con Dios"
"Yours" "Johnnie" "P. S, I Love You"
Jivin' At The
Drive-In
A.W.0.L.-A wolf on the loose.
An Item - Coosome twosome.
Bun Brain - Stupid fella.
Meat Head - Jerk.
Easy, Breezy, You'll Slide a Mile - Take it easy.
Zoom Boy - Hunk of heartbreak.
Toad - Ugly doll.
Cookie Book - Date book.
You Fracture Me - You're really funny, kid.
The Last Cry - I'd rather stay in the house with Mickey Mouse than go out with a rat like you!
Prepare Now
"The twelfth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . " The rest of this line from an old English folk song is, ". . a partridge in a pear tree," but Ruth Irnler, Cub-Deb editor of tie LADIES' HOME JOURNAL, comes up with more practical suggestions for a dozen days of Christmas giving and gaiety in the December issue.
Start your Christmas calendar with a good-health resolution, says Ruth. For holiday sparkle in your eyes, cut down on sweets the first of December, so you won't be over-stuffed by the time the big day rolls around.
More ideas for the season to be .jolly: Take 10 minutes a day, for a week, to write a friendly, personal message on every Christmas card you send.
Have your picture taken (in a light blue, off-white, or black sweater) with a Christmas-morning smile for those you love. Carry your own mistletoe in an appropriate place by attaching fake pearls and green felt leaves to your everyday barrette.
Make miniature holly wreaths of your hoop earrings by painting them green and attaching tiny red ribbon bows to the tops.
Do a 3-D wrapping job on a special package-one layer of gold foil, one layer of red and one of green.
Have a `Sing For Your Supper" party on Christmas afternoon, combining a progressive dinner with a Christmas carol song fest.
Send a copy of the neighborhood newspaper to the serviceman away from home, every day for a ,year.
Catch some of the Christmas broadcasts on your radio or TV set for "family night" on Christmas Eve.
And have a very merry Christmas!
There was a young lady of Lynn
Who was so excessively thin
That when she essayed
To sip lemonade
She slipped through the straw And fell in! |

Thanksgiving
Again comers Thursday,
Our beloved feast day.
A day we all should pray, For we should be thankful That God is so gracious
In giving us our way.
For the food that we eat, The opponents we beat,
For all of the friends we meet We're thankful, dear God, For the things that you give In victory or defeat.
 -Helen Rakoczy

Does your stomach turn when an ordinary boy you meet?

I'm not so very dumb.
You're not really love sick -
Just take a turn! ! !
