THE TALL TALE I have learned not to talk back to polrcemen I was comrng home after a week end vrsrt rn Calrfornra and I was comrng along about 150 m p h wrth not a care rn the world and hoprng that I would be home rn trme for supper It was whrle crossrng the Great Plarns that I heard the wall of a srren and look Ing rnto the green and yellow rear vrew muror I saw the polrceman chasrng me Not wanrrng to be dela ed I stepped on t He kept up wrt e for the frrst couple hundred mrles or so but then I began to pull away from hrm Icrossed the Mrssrssrppr lorng about 700 m p h and I was 11 Pe 1 before I knew rt As I wt nt through New York I notrced that there were more than a hundred pulled rnto Dyer Brook there was not only every cop rn the state chasrng me but I was early for drnner So whrle was wartrng untrl drnner got ready I started argurng wrth the polrcemen strckrng to the fact tnat lwas under the speed l1m1t when they frrst started chas mg me I went to court and the Jury found me gurlty of flyrng low through New York Crty and the Judge gave me frfry years rn the pen So I guess that I wrll be out of crrculatron untrl 2035 Leslre McNelly DEbC,RIBlNG A PLACE Wren my heart crres out for peace and quret and the feelrng of secureness I make my way to the Irttle church on the hrll The mrnute I step through the doorway and rnto the audltorrum I feel that I am standrng rn the best spot on earth Tht rr. are many thrngs bcsrdes the holy srlence of a church whrch makes one thrnk only of God I often stand at the front of the church wrth the pulprt behrnd and above me and look at the large prcture wrndows rn the back of the church Durrng the daytime the sun shrnes through thrs wrndow and shows us wrth the use of color and art the wonderful love that Chrrst prctured as a shepherd has for us and the baby sheep he has rn hrs arms The sunlrght comrng through thrs wrndow falls upon the carpet pews and so on rn the rrch colors rn makrng the staln glass wrndows Yes rt rs a very small church and does not have plush carpets and etc but such thrngs are not needed to make a church shrne wrth the love of IIS brrde Ardeen Goodall GOING TO SCHOOL Gorng to school lS a Job that most young people don t lrke Ithrnk the reason that they don't lrke rt IS because they have to go Some people wrll get drscouraged and qurt school but rn the later years they are sorry that they drd I Get rt In my head that I want to qurt sometrmes but my parents won t let me They say that the best part of your lrfe rs when you re gorng to school I am begrnnrng to th1nk that they are rrght because you have plenty of trme to work after you get your educatlon and have graduated My advrce to young people IS to go to school as long as they possrbly can and get as much educatron as they can Phrllrp Sherman 59 Q u Q I , . . - i , , - .
