A Woman's Misfortune
Her hair style wasn't specific.
Her make-up scheme was horrific,
Her dress was too long and ruffled,
In fact, she looked rather muffled;
Her hat musfve come from the attic,
Her laughter sounded like static,
But pause before you deride her
She had no daughter to guide her!

God... Or The Greatest
Fraud That Ever Lived!
Most people will agree chit Jesus
Christ was a great man . . . that
He was an inspired spiritual lead
er . . . that He performed miracles
never performed before or since
His time by anyone else.
But today ... as at Christ's trial
before the high priest Caiphas . . .
many are unwilling to accept Our
Lord's claim to be the divine Son
of Almighty God.
For nearly 2,000 years the
Catholic Church has maintained
that, as Jesus claimed, He "and
the Father are one." Based on
what He said and did . . . what He
claimed and what He fulfilled . . .
He had to be the Son of God or
the greatest fraud that ever lived.
Prophecies scattered through
the books of the Old Testament,
written as long as 1,000 years
before Christ's birth, describe the
family from which he was to come
. . . the circumstances of his birth
...his life of preaching and mir
acles... and finally, his birth and
death for the sins of mankind.
AH these prophecies apply to
only one man in all the annals of
human history to Jesus Christ
alone.
If we are to accept Christ as
the center and essence of our reli
gious faith, the least we can be
lieve of Him is that what He
said was true. And under cross
examination by Caiphas, when
asked to declare if He was "the
Christ, the Son of God," Our Lord
replied: "Thou hast said it" (Mat
thew 26:63, 64).
A man who only claims to be
the Son of God could not have
done the things Jesus did to prove
it. No mere human being could
walk on the waters, still the waves,
cleanse the lepers, restore sight
to the blind, bring the dead back
to life. One who only claimed to
. be divine could not have returned
from the grave as Christ did.
The whole foundation of the
Christian religion rests upon
God's promise to send His only
begotten Son to redeem a sinful
world. He did not promise to
send merely a gifted preacher, or
a pious leader but His Owji Son.
And no lesser person's sacrifice,
however noble, would have been
sufficient to achieve the redemp
tion of man.

Much against his conscience, an office
worker bought a sweepstakes ticket from a
fellow employee. It turned out to be the
winning ticket, and he was informed that
he would soon receive $50,000.
"I didn't work for this money," the trou
bled man told his wife. "It is an ill-gotten
gain, and I don't know if I should accept
the $50,000."
After a long discussion, the wife said, "If

ask his advioe?" He agreed, but the next
night when he came home, he found his wife
dressed in a new gown, hat, and shoes, with
a full-length mink coat carefully draped
over her arm.
"I thought we were going to the minister's
tonight." he said.
"We are but you don't want me to go
looking like a poor woman, do you?"

Officials in a Russian village
roused everybody from bed one
morning. "It's election time,"
they shouted. "Everybody to the
polls.'"
Dutiully, the citizens paraded
to the balloting area and cast
their votes. But one old man was
curious. "What am I voting for?"
he asked.
"Are you crazy?" an official
replied. "Don't you know this is
a secret ballot?"
