TO MOM
We are sad within our memory
1onely are our hearts today,
For the one we loved so dearly
j Has forever been called away.
! We think of him in silence
No eye may see us weep.
But many silent tears are shed
! When others are asleep.

I.OVK LETTERS FROM HEAVEN
! TO MOM
! Frank's been gone three weeks,
I Mom,
i Though it doesn't seem quite true
And yet I know he is ever n'ar
j to you.
i I believe he writes you letters.
Even though you are apart,
And I feel that our "Great Post
man"
Sends them straight into your
heart.
Each letler, thus, a memory.
Perhaps a thousand fold
Of tender years together,
And a heart of purest gold.
And so, while you ''
Ar on 'their way to you.
With all my love,
Sliari Pridemore.

ONLY HIS MOTHER KNOWS
(To Our Son Frank)
It matters not to her that he was
A husband and father all in one.
She loved him 'cause he was still
Her son.
Families grow and drift apart.
And things like this break, a
mother's heart.
Years pass swiftly, and roll on
and on
And in one brief. moment our son
was gone.
Only she knows the tears that are
shed,
And the lonely years to come
ahead.
She works and prays in untrained
grief,
'Cause work, however clumsy,
brings relief.
It isn't just death makes a body
sad,
It's not to have done what you
wish you had.
She has known him since birth
And knows only too well what hciT0 Jd Friends.. ... Old and
was worth.
Memories of happy years, that's
wonderful and sweet

His cheerfulness and courage that
never knew defeat,
He loved the outdoors even as a
boy,
Anything that flew or swam
Was his to enjoy.
When only seven, he had the
fishing lust,
He fished, not with worms.
But with old bread crusts.
His first wild goose with it's head
over
His shoulder and feet dragging on
the ground,
A more likely hunter couldn't be
found.
His face beaming with pride,
He was a sight to see.
It's times like these that stay
In a mother's memory.
He loved the lakes and streams
For the fish they grew,
And God's big blue sky
Where the wild geese flew.
Then, at the time of the year
He loved the best,
When mid-autumn came
To our big Golden West . . -.
The Lord come to take him
One night in late autumn snows.
Now Frank is sleeping in "

In her fast fleeing years, the one
thing
This mother knows is.
That she'd gladly gave her life
If only God had spared his.

ON THE COB is one of many strange dishes fhat suits Scrooge fine, as his
expression here shows plainly. He belongs to Mrs. Gene Stokley, 423 North Tenth
Street. Though cloaked with a beautiful, but undistinguished b-indic pattern, Scrooge
has a touch of Siamese in him, says Mrs. Stokley. She, her husband a johns-Manville
Company employe, and their children, Rebecca, 18, and David, 14, came here from
Fort Worth 2'j years ago following a series of vacation trips through the west.
