Accidents are an occupation al hazard for children too, as they go about their business of play. Studies indicate that lack of supervision is the main reason for childhood ac cidents. If parents and others who care for children will as sume more responsibility, the business of child’s play will become a safer occupation. By Goldie Rambo Thanksgiving Day—it has now arrived and as we sit down to our heavily laden tables how many of us think more than momentarily about its true meaning. It is like too many things now adays— heavily commercialized and in many cases by-passed in the frantic rush to “BUY” for Christmas. Both holidays are actually deeply religious in meaning at Thanksgiving time we should all stop and thank God for our many blessings— our families, our friends, plen tiful food, a place to worship and the Right to worship in the manner we choose. I am afraid we are living at too fast a pace to savor the really good and import ant things in life—but guess we have to keep up with the World— and the Joneses???? In the days of my youth— it seems a long time ago, this was a time of relaxation af ter the fall crops were all in. We didn’t always have tur key on the table by any means—but there was plenty to eat. That is another thing 1 can be thankful for (maybe my husband isn’t)— and that is a wonderful appetite! I suppose all you well or ganized people have your Christmas shopping done—we went to town last week and bought a couple of items just to try and “get in the mood.” It you have looked around in Mill City this year a lot of really nice gifts are obtain able right here at home—and merchants here are really supporting that nice one shot credit card, too. The holidays are a time for remembering. Memories of good times at home when we were young never quite leave us. Even when we have mom ents of doubt and life’s per plexing problems overwhelm us temporarily—it seems that taking time to recall a happy moment long ago brings back our perspective. by one of our readers that may give you a laugh—How ever, as they say, it’s more truth than poetry: The Moa&ey’s Viewjtolnt On Evolution Three monkeys sat in a co coanut tree discussing things as they’re said to be. Said one to the others, ‘‘Now listen you two, there’s a rumor that can’t be true. That man de scended from our noble race, the very idea! A dire disgraced No monkey ever deserted his wife, starved her baby or ruined her life.. And you’ve never known a mother monk to leave her baby, with oth ers to bunk, or to pass them on from one to another, ’til they hardly know who is their mother. And another thing! You will never see a monk build a fence ’round a cocoa- nut tree, and let the cocoanuts go to waste. Why, if I put a fence around this tree star vation would force you to steal from me. There’s an other thing a monk won’t do, to go out at night and get in a stew or use a gun, a club or a knife to take some other monkey’s life. Yes! Man des cended, the ornery cuss, but brother, he didn’t descend from us.” This is something to make people wonder, why, animals sometimes have more sense than humans.
