take care of us when we have measles? patch up our favorite jeans- for the tenth time?

...

run after the school bus with the

lunch money we had forgotten? take time to read stories to us- even when we are big enough to read by ourselves? bake our favorite cookies for us? . ... let our friends stay over night, even though she might not get much sleep? ... take the smallest piece of cake so everyone else could have enough? ... listen to our problems and sorrows? ^nd laugh with us when we are happy?

A mother's love is so strong that she will do anything she can to keep you from unhappiness and sorrow.

Earnestly working in the wrong place

For those who think sincerity is all that God expects, consider some workmen who sincerely thought they were working on the right lot, but were on the wrong side of town. Herman Bauer and his wrecking crew had bought the salvage rights to a fire damaged building in Minneapolis. He did $25 000 worth of damage to the heating system of a building at 5th Street and Third Avenue in Northeast Minneapolis before he was told that the building he had purchased for $25 was in North Minneapolis.

Mother's Love

Mother's love is like an island In life's ocean, vast and wide;

A

peaceful, quiet shelter

From the wind, the rain, the tide.

It is bound on the north by hope.

By patience on the west,

By tender counsel on the south.

And on ^he' east by rest.

Above it, like a beacon light,

Shine faith and truth and prayers;

i^nd
I

through the changing scenes of life find a haven there.

Easy Made Banana Pudding

For large banana pudding use two pkgs of jello vanilla pudding mix. If small pudding use only one box. Make pudding according to instructions on pkg. Line

your dish with vanilla wafers sides and bottom. Slice your bananas. Use as many as you desire. Put sufficient amount of vanilla wafers into your blender* and place on button marked grind as you want these to be kind of fine. Usually takes half a blender full. Sprinkle this over your pudding and put saran or waxed paper over the dish and put into refrigerator until ready to serve.- The crumbs on top will take the place of meringue. This saves on using eggs.
