The chance to win a sev-en-day Caribbean cruise awaits Oklahoma Blood Institute (OBI) donors at Allen High School, Tuesday, December 1st. The holiday blood drive will occur from 10:00 AM to 1:30 PM in the gym lobby.

Cruises, Inc. is providing the vacation cruise for two in hopes more will make blood donation a priority during the holiday season. A gift card to help with ground travel expenses to the port of Galveston, TX, will also be provided to the winning donor. Each

Allen School enrollment continues to rise and board members were advised at the November 12th meet-ing that the current ADA number is 510. Class-rooms are full and space is at a premium.

The Allen board meeting was changed to a Thursday to accommodate the need to meet after the 10th of the month to ensure all outstanding statements had been received. This is done when necessary to avoid late charges on bill-ing cycles.

Four board members, administrators and several guests were in attendance including a representative of the Chickasaw Nation, college students attending to achieve class require-ments, and concerned par-ents. After call to order and reading the Open Meeting statement, public hearings were held to allow open

discussion on the school’s Impact Aid, JOM program and Title VII Indian Edu-cation program as well as the school’s Title I federal funding, and the district’s internet policy and com-pliance with the Children’s Internet Protection Act. Guests in attendance were encouraged to express their concerns or sugges-tions on these topics.

After approval of the consent agenda items the board discussed and ap-proved the 2016 meeting dates, the District Policy on E-Rate Record Reten-tion & Procurement and the new Internet Access Conduct Agreement.

The board then discussed short term and long term planning, deciding and prioritizing school needs.

The board entered into executive session before adjourning for the eve-ning. donor is guaranteed to re-

ceive a nautical-themed T-shirt as well as free health screenings. Anyone 16 years and older* is usually able to donate.

Blood donation is a life-saving gift that costs noth-ing but time. One blood donation can save as many as three lives in area hospi-tals. People with negative blood types are especially urged to give. Only 18 percent of the population has negative blood types, but those with these types must have negative type blood when needed. Okla-

homa Blood Institute is a nonprofit blood center that provides every drop of blood needed for patients in 154 hospitals across the state.

“This community is blessed with giving people who respond when espe-cially when they realize the urgency of the blood need,” said John Armit-age, M.D., president and CEO of Oklahoma Blood Institute. “The gift of blood is a priceless one. It’s difficult to think of anything more important that we personally can do at this time of year.”

Allen correspondentThe Allen Mustangs

saw the 2015 high school football season come to an end last weekend in the first round of the Class B football playoffs.

Coach Steven Caldwell’s Mustangs were eliminated on an 86-44 loss to the hosting Seiling Wildcats.

Allen ended the season with a record of 6-5.

Despite the 42-point margin of the loss, the outcome was still very much up for grabs late in the game. Allen trailed by only 10 points (54-44) in the fourth quarter. However, Seiling erupted for 32 consecutive points down the stretch to secure the one-sided victory.

The Wildcats used a prolific passing attack to open a 24-0 lead in the first quarter. SHS con-nected on TD passes of 9, 16 and 38 yards during the spree. They added 2-point conversion runs after each touchdown.

Last week we honored our veterans and most schools had special programs on November 11th. One of our readers shared the following . . . Students are great about sending our troops letters and the troops love ‘em. You can see why . . . Dear Soldier, “If you’re having a rough day, remember the most important thing in life is to be yourself. Unless you can be Batman.” Dear Veterans, “You rock more than AC/DC or Metallica or Red Hot Chili Peppers.” “I am so happy you are risking your life for the USA! My grandpa, Bob, was in the Navy. Now he likes peanuts.”

—CC— One of our “deer” hunting friends shared the following recently . . . A group of friends who went deer hunting separated into pairs for the day. That night, one hunter returned alone, staggering under an eight-point buck. “Where’s Harry?” asked another hunter. “He fainted a couple miles up the trail,” Harry’s partner answered. “You left him lying there alone and carried the deer back?” “A tough call,” said the hunter. “But I figured no one is going to steal Harry.”

—CC— The holiday season has arrived. Some enjoy it . . . some don’t . . .and some get actually angry during this time of year. Be careful that you are not one of those that gets angry. Not only will Santa take you off his good list but you may also have a heart attack . . . Medical researchers increasingly are finding just how toxic outbursts of anger can be.

New evidence suggests people increase their risk for a heart attack more than eightfold shortly after an intensely angry episode. Anger can also help bring on strokes and irregular heartbeat, other research shows. And it may lead to sleep problems, excess eating and insulin resistance, which can help cause diabetes.

“Anger is bad for just about everything we have going on physically,” says Redford Williams, director of the Behavioral Medicine Research Center at Duke U n i v e r s i t y M e d i c a l Center and co-author of “Anger Kills: Seventeen Strategies for Controlling the Hostility That Can Harm Your Health.”

Strong anger releases the hormones adrenaline and cortisol into the bloodstream, which can trigger an increase in heart rate, blood pressure and sugar metabolism. This is useful if the body requires a burst of energy to mount a physical attack. “Amongst cave men, the more angry you got, the more aggressive you were, the more food you got,” says Scott Wetzler, vice chairman of the department of psychiatry at Montefiore Medical Center in New York.

But too much anger can be harmful, especially for people already at risk for heart disease, the leading cause of death in the U.S. About half of American adults have at least one of three key risk factors for heart disease: high blood pressure, high LDL cholesterol or a smoking habit.

Over time, chronic anger can cause long-term damage to the heart, according to Dr. Williams of Duke. The increased adrenaline and cortisol levels raise blood pressure and cause the heart to work harder. Increased blood pressure and blood flow can also damage the lining of arteries and cause a buildup of fatty plaques, he said.

A study published in March in the European Heart Journal: Acute Cardiovascular Care questioned more than 300 patients in a Sydney, Australia, hospital with confirmed heart attacks about any feelings of anger in the 48 hours before onset of the attack. Patients who had experienced intense anger had an 8.5 times greater risk of suffering a heart attack in the two hours after the outburst than they would normally.

An intense outburst ranged from “very angry, body tense, maybe fists clenched, ready to burst,” to “enraged, out of control, throwing objects, hurting yourself or others.” Only seven patients in the study reported having had intense anger in the two hours before their heart attacks.

“This study adds to the small, but growing, body of evidence linking acute emotional triggers with onset” of heart attack, the researchers wrote.

The findings followed a review, published in the European Heart Journal last year, of nine previously conducted studies on anger and cardiovascular problems. Those studies, involving a combined 6,400 patients, found a higher rate of problems including strokes, heart attacks and arrhythmia, or irregular heartbeat, in the two hours following an outburst of anger. Two of the studies examined whether the risk of suffering ventricular arrhythmia, which occurs in the lower chambers of the heart, increased along with the intensity of the outburst, and found it did.

Most doctors believe factors such as smoking and obesity pose greater heart risks than anger does. But if a person is already vulnerable to heart disease, an outburst can be an unhelpful trigger. “A person without many risk factors for cardiovascular disease with one anger episode a month has a very small additional risk. But a person with multiple risk factors or a history of heart attack or stroke who is frequently angry has a much higher absolute excess risk accumulated over time,” says Elizabeth Mostofsky, a postdoctoral fellow in the cardiovascular epidemiology research unit at Boston’s Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, who helped lead the nine-study review.

Most research on anger and health has focused on cardiovascular disease. But some older studies have suggested anger may also be linked to unhealthy lifestyle behaviors. A 1992 study in the American Journal of Epidemiology, involving 5,100 Americans age 18 to 30, found that higher levels of hostility were strongly associated with tobacco and marijuana smoking, increased alcohol consumption and greater caloric intake. The association was particularly strong for smoking.

The same journal published other research that year showing that people who scored higher on hostility tests during college were significantly more likely to have larger body mass indexes and to be smokers when surveyed 20 years later, compared with people with lower hostility scores.

A study involving 4,700 adults in South Korea found that high levels of anger were associated with sleep disturbances, including difficulty falling or staying asleep, and early morning awakening, according to results published in 2005 in the Journal of Psychosomatic Research.

Findings associating anger with diabetes or the causes of diabetes have been mixed. A study of 643 men who weren’t taking diabetes medications showed that those with high levels of stress and hostility were more likely to have insulin resistance, a condition that can lead to diabetes because the cells don’t properly absorb glucose from the bloodstream. The study was published in 2006 in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine.

However, researchers who followed 12,000 initially nondiabetic adults for six years for the development of Type 2 diabetes found no relation between anger and the disease, according to a 2006 paper in the journal Psychoneuroendocrinology.

Joe Pereira, an anger-management counselor in Arlington, Mass., asks patients to keep a log of their anger bouts, including any physical changes they feel. Many describe an adrenaline rush, increased heart rate and muscle tension in the shoulders or chest. “Usually

One November 5th, Allen members of Beta Sigma Phi gathered for their first meeting of the month. Karla Cramer hosted the evening and had decorated the fellowship hall of the First Baptist Church with arrangements of sunflow-ers and a fall motif.

Members in attendance were Karla, Terry Riddle,

Sue Boyd, Cindy Davis, Cindi Sanders, Wilma Harden, Jill Kaminski, Jennifer Smith and Joy Anderson.

Following the meal a short business meeting was held. Up for review and discussion were two service projects, the re-sults of the Allen School Carnival cakewalk and

the upcoming need to fill Santa sacks for his De-cember 12th visit. Also discussed was changing meeting dates due to con-flicts with the start of AHS basketball, the menu for the Thanksgiving meet-ing, and the December meeting. It was decided

to move the Thanksgiving meeting to Monday, the 16th, and the December meeting to the 17th. Janu-ary/February meetings will be rearranged on a monthly basis.

Plans were made to hold an ornament exchange in addition to the secret sister

gift giving at the Decem-ber meeting which will be held at the home of Cindy Davis.

The evening closed with a review and training on Beta Sigma Phi. Members filled out an eight question answer sheet on the his-tory of the organization.

Kodachrome, what’s

that? For that matter, are there any young people today who know what a camera is? The kind that uses film? They all have what I think is called the smart phone. They have never heard any informa-tion about cameras that use film.

Recently I was at an event taking pictures and a friend was also there tak-ing pictures on her phone. Later when I was at the newspaper office and was asked if I had a picture of a certain happening and I did not, I called the friend and asked if she had a print of this event and she an-swered yes. I asked her to bring it to the newspaper. She did and the copy of this print was number 92 on her phone. It took her awhile to being it up.

I asked her is she was going to make any copies of any of those prints in order to be able to view them later and it seemed that it would take a lot of time to make a copy of

those she wanted to save. She explained to me the process she could do to make copies off those she wanted to print in order to have permanent prints of them. There may be now someone will come up with a device that will take these prints off a persons smart phone and make copies or albums for them, so they can be saved, and get them off the phone.

If you want to show someone a photograph now, you post it on email or maybe, flickr.

Have you noticed that, in the drug stores and Walmart, the counters that used to take your film, de-velop it and make prints in one hour, are gone? They will direct you to a post where you can take the disc out of your camera, view and designate the ones you want prints of, if any. They will print them and have them ready in about one hour.

I was a photographer in the 1960’s. In my ice box

I have film on rolls that include Vericolor III, a negative film, Kodak Tri-x Pan Film, Kodak Veri-color Film and three rolls of Kodak Ektachrome-X film. When I bought film then, I kept it in the ice box or freezer until I needed it. Several rolls have been

there a long time. I should put some of them on dis-play along with my old cameras so it can be seen if anyone is interested.

The way I got these old cameras I have in my collection, people would bring them to me and say, this old camera has been

in the family for years, you may want it. In that collection are cameras dat-ing back to the 1900’s and there are two brought back from when our troops were in Germany at the close of World War II. They were brought to me when they were no longer wanted by the family.

Carolyn (Blaylock) Johnson passed away on Saturday, November 14, 2015 at her home where family and close friends never left her side. Services for Carolyn Johnson were 2:00 p.m. on Wednesday, November 18th, at First Baptist Church in Holdenville with Reverends David Pope and Ron Hunter officiating. Interment followed at Calvin Cemetery in Calvin, Oklahoma, under the direction of Hudson-Phillips Funeral Home. Carolyn Johnson was born on December 30, 1956 in McAlester, Oklahoma to Harold Nall, Sr. and Betty Sue “Orr” Nall. Through her childhood, while attending Calvin Public Schools, she loved and excelled at playing basketball. Before graduating in 1975 Carolyn broke her Mama’s school shooting record in girls’ basketball and then held that title for at least 10 years. Carolyn went on to attend Cosmetology School in Ada, Oklahoma and later Wes Watkins Vo-Tech in Wetumka, Oklahoma where she received her

CNA certificate. Carolyn was most known for her infectious smile, helping others, her love of live music and dancing, always living life to the fullest, watching her kids and grandkids play sports, being second Mama to many through the years and all of her “Hilda” moments. Let’s just say it only takes seconds for a car to roll swiftly away and for Carolyn to demand a friend “Go get it!” and approximately 5 minutes for ribs on the grill to go from cooking to needing a fire truck and when asking for a peanut butter and jelly and scrambled egg sandwich one must state that they’re two different sandwiches not peanut butter, jelly and egg. There are many more “Hilda” moments that will never be forgotten and will continue to put a smile on someone’s face. Carolyn dedicated 20 years to the Moss Athletic Booster Club and 27 years to the Moss FFA & 4-H Parent Club, supporting her kids, grandkids and many other Moss kids. She also gladly served as a pianist at Banner Baptist Church in Horntown for 23 years and Fairview Cowboy Church for 8 years. Carolyn gained many friends during her career endeavors at People’s State Bank, Hair Power, Numas Salon, all in Holdenville; Second Chance, Wetumka; HealthBack Home Health, Holdenville General Hospital, Holdenville Family Medical Clinic, all in Holdenville; and most recently Alliance Health, Seminole.

Preceding Carolyn in death are her husbands, Robert Johnson in 2015 and Kenny Blaylock in 2008; her father, Harold Nall, Sr. in 1987, and her brother Harold Nall, Jr. in 1977. Carolyn is survived by her mother Betty “Sue” Nall of Holdenville; son Rath Pryor and wife April of Horntown; daughter Kendra Blaylock and fiancée Boone Griffin of Holdenville; brother Marty Nall and wife Debbie, and sister Tracey Wiseman all of Holdenville; grandchildren Hailey, Riley, and Rohby Pryor of Horntown and Jaylee Griffin of Holdenville; father and mother-in-law, Charles “Butch” and Auttis Johnson; brothers-in-law, James and Tina Johnson and Billy and Jayme Johnson all of Seminole; along with several nieces and nephews, a host of other family members, friends and special neighbors. Pallbearers included Laren Robison, Jason Moody, Mike Meek, Thomas “Bubba” Giles, Travis Barker and Bobby Armstrong. Honorary pallbearers will be: Rohby Pryor, Boone Griffin, James Johnson, Billy Johnson, Travis Gillespie, Kevin Nolen, Scott Babb, John Rhoades, Landon Moody, Lynn Pettit, Roger Vorheis, Tim Reich, Joe Henry Harden, O.C. Powell and Frankie Hogshooter. In lieu of flowers the family has asked that you please send donations to Moss FFA & 4-H Parent Club, Attn: Darlene Fletcher, 3394 N. 375 Rd., Holdenville, OK 74848.

I had several readers that commented about last week’s story about my struggle to get through air-port security. That wasn’t the first time and it may not be the last. A few years ago in Toronto, Canada I was detained for about 30 minutes while “trained” agents went through my carry-on searching for whatever. The center of their interest focused on my camera bag, which contained a bunch of those little 35mm film cans. They were empty and they acted like they had never seen a roll of 35mm film before. Plus, my 5 year old, Steve had placed some souvenir empty bal-loons in there which I

couldn’t explain. There was much ado. The five other members of my fam-ily walked on and when I was finally released, they had not even missed me. It’s an unsettling experi-ence (not being missed) and looking like a terror-ist.

A few weeks ago I was in Florida and needed a little cash. A large bank in Plantation, Florida had a sidewalk ATM so I de-cided to give them my business. As I inserted my Farmers’ State Bank card a light came on with a mes-sage saying the ATM was out of order. Not ready

to take a dumb machine’s word for it I tried again. This time a suited up em-ployee of the bank came out and requested that I not use the machine as it was being serviced inside. He did everything but pull a gun on me. Inside I could see about six tellers goofing off and not doing anything so I went inside and went to the girl that looked more like Barbara Sanders (my own personal banker) than the others.

The Lady shrank away as I asked her if I could use my ATM card inside as I needed some cash. The suited up guy came up (again) and told me to go to the Target Store across the street and try it. He watched me till I cleared the bank. I walked down to the end of the street and it turns out Target is across an eight-lane expressway and no way in heck to cross it. I walked back to the car and waited on the rest of my party. I no-ticed a person walk up to the ATM. Before I could jump out and tell him it didn’t work, he pulled a wad of money out and walked off. I went back up to the machine, timidly, and withdrew some cash.

I thought of a time back in 1955, I was in the Navy and stationed in San Di-ego. A shipmate had a death in his family. While he waited for his emergen-cy leave papers to be pre-pared, I thought it would be real nice of me to drive his special order Crestliner 1951 Ford over to “town” and have it serviced. It had been sitting on the pier on Coronado Island and was very nasty. So I did (taking along an old bud-dy) and when I returned to take the ferry back to

Coronado things started to get weird. Unknown to me was that two sailors had just robbed a Safeway store. They shot down six people, some died. The “sailors” had escaped in a 1951 Crestliner Ford.

When the ferry docked, my buddy and me were dragged out and slung to the ground. A California trooper put his heavy boot on my head as they re-moved the seats, emptied the trunk and cursed us--calling us killers. A guitar was in the trunk and it was flung out and bounced across the parking area. It was very expensive but I was more worried about

my own self. Abruptly troopers told us we could get up and get out. The only thing that had saved us was that the real kill-ers were caught just north of town. I was irate and complained to the eager TV cameras that were there about how they had trashed the car. Finally they relented and helped us put stuff back, we went on back to the ship and that was the end of that. Except I got on TV that night. No thanks.

Have a good weekend and try not to look like a crook. And go to church Sunday.

It is said that when the British and French were fighting in Canada in the 1750s, Admiral Phipps, commander of the British fleet, was told to anchor outside Quebec. He was given orders to wait for the British land forces to arrive, then support them when they attacked the city. As he waited, he became annoyed by the statues of the saints that adorned a nearby cathe-dral, so he commanded his men to shoot at them with the ships’ cannons. No one knows how many rounds were fired or how many statues were knocked out, but when the land forces arrived and the signal was given to attack, the admi-ral was of no help. He had used all his ammunition shooting at the “saints.”

Are we Christians some-times our own worst en-emy? Do we spend so much time “shooting” at one another that we have nothing left with which to fight our real enemy – the Devil? How can Chris-tians convince the unbe-lieving world that Jesus loves them and died for them if His followers are “shooting” at one another? The Apostle Paul may have compared the Chris-tians at Galatia to a pack of dogs when he wrote, “But if you bite and de-vour one another, beware lest you be consumed by

one another!” (Galatians 5:15) “Friendly fire” can destroy us!

Divisions among Chris-tians have always been a hindrance to Christ and His church. The Apostle Paul pleaded with the Corinthians “by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfect-ly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.” (1 Cor. 1:10-11) The only way we can be united is by not “add-ing to” or “taking from” God’s word (Rev. 22:18-19). It is “profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruc-tion in righteousness” and will make us “complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.” (2 Tim 3:16-17)

Allen followed with Colten Browning’s 38-yard touchdown run later in the first period. Browning also tacked on a successful conver-sion run to make it a 24-8 score.

In the second quarter, the Mustangs outscored the home team 22-14 to pull to within 38-30 going into the halftime break.

Seiling used a 60-yard punt return and a con-version run to up the lead to 32-8.

Allen countered with Ty Brown’s 7-yard TD pass from Colton Fred-erick to get to within 18 points at 32-14.

Seiling responded with a 28-yard run to swell the lead to 38-14.

The Mustangs stormed back with a pair of touchdowns later in the second quarter. Garrett Wallace scored on a 10-yard touchdown run. Garrett Wallis provided the conversion run to make it a 38-22 game.

Allen then went to the air for Ty Brown’s 20-yard pass from Colton Frederick. Tadyn Walker added the conversion run to close the deficit to 38-30 at the break.

In the third quarter, the Wildcats outscored Allen two TDs to one.

Seiling used a 12-yard pass and added a con-version run to pull ahead 46-30.

Allen followed with Col ton Freder ick’s 3-yard touchdown run and Joe Howshar’s con-version run to make it a 46-38 contest.

Seiling had one more answer in the third stan-za. The Wildcats tallied a TD on a 65-yard scoring toss. They also added a conversion run to make it a 54-38 game.

Allen was down but the Mustangs refuse to fold. They opened the fourth quarter with Ta-dyn Walker’s 63-yard TD pass from Frederick. The effort to get to with-in eight points failed on a pass play, leaving AHS down 54-44.

The close contest evap-orated over the remain-ing minutes of the fourth quarter. Seiling pulled away with four con-secutive touchdowns. The Wildcats ran for a 39-yard TD, passed for a 6-yard score, ran for 42 yards and finished off the touchdown spree with a 6-yard rushing TD. They added conver-sions after each touch-down to secure the 86-44 final score.

Allen generated some solid offensive numbers

in the playoff loss on Friday. The Mustangs rushed for 308 yards and passed for 222 yards. The 530 yards of to-tal offense was impres-sive.

Colton Frederick was outstanding in the quar-terback position. He was 8-14-0 passing for 222 yards and 3 touchdowns. He also rushed 11 times for 67 yards and a touch-down.

Colten Browning was the leading rusher with 132 yards and a touch-down on 14 carries.

Ty Brown was the lead-ing receiver. Brown had five catches for 108 yards and 2 touchdowns.

The season did not end like Allen coaches and players had hoped. However, the team bat-tled back to six wins and a playoff appearance under new head coach Steven Caldwell.

A Mock Car Wreck and Impaired driving event was presented at Allen high school on Novem-ber 4, from 10:00am-12-:00pm. This event, meant to coincide closely with Red Ribbon Week, is a first-time collaboration between the Chickasaw Nation and the commu-nity of Allen to prevent underage drinking and substance abuse, as well as the potential consequences of these choices. The event will consist of a Mock Drunk Driving scene that will represent an impaired driving accident, followed by a debriefing in the au-ditorium where students received a prevention mes-saging from OHP/local police, school admin, and

other students and teach-ers. The Chickasaw Nation Stratigic E Prevention Health Education depart-ment Caleb Shahbandeh and Miranda Willis, de-partment worked closely with Principal James and Mrs. Melonie Johnson (Librarian and Student Council Sponsor) at the school, received school board approval for the event, and will be offering gift cards to students who wish to participate in a sur-vey with parental consent. Jodi Watkins of Allen Iron provided the wrecked car and Allen Police Depart-ment Eric Niblett and Light Horse officer Hunter Nickell gave a demostra-tion of field tests that are peformed on drivers who

are suspected of Impaired driving. Officer Teel from the Oklahoma Highway Patrol discussed the dan-gers of driving impaired.As part of a federal grant a comprehensive, data driven and community-level Substance Abuse Prevention program for the Chickasaw Nation is being established. The Strategic Prevention Framework-Tribal Incentive Grant (SPF-TIG) is funded by Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAM-HSA); and the goal of the grant is to build substance abuse prevention capacity at the community-level and to develop cultur-ally appropriate and ef-fective interventions that reduce substance abuse

and its consequences. This grant was awarded to the Oklahoma Inter-Tribal Consortium (OITC) which includes five tribal organizations: the Ab-sentee Shawnee Tribe, Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes, the Chickasaw Na-tion, Comanche Nation, and the Oklahoma Area Inter-Tribal Health Board (OAITHB).

“The Chickasaw Na-tion Strategic Prevention Framework- Tribal In-centive Grant (SPF-TIG) team would like to thank the Allen community, Al-len Public Schools, Allen Iron and Metal, Allen Po-lice Department, the Al-len Advocate, Chickasaw Nation Lighthorse Police, and the Oklahoma High-way Patrol for making the mock car wreck event successful.

Officer Nickell demostrated the test of sobriety on actor Laney Deaton. Oklahoma Highway Patrolman Teel answered ques-tions from the Allen students.

Allen High School Principal Michael James speaks to the stu-dents about the dangers of Impaired driving.

the more intense the experience of anger, the more physical sensations they have,” he says.

He and other anger experts recommend certain steps for curbing hostility. One is to avoid assuming others are purposely attempting to harm or annoy you. “Someone may say something to you and the impact may be hurtful. But that isn’t necessarily their intent,” says Mr. Pereira. It is also helpful to learn to tolerate unfairness in the world, and to avoid having rigid rules about how others should behave. “The more rules we have, the more people are going to break them. And that makes us more angry because they’re not doing what we want them to,” Mr. Pereira says.

Taking a timeout when gripped by anger is also a good idea, experts say. Someone prone to shouting could say, “I’m very hot headed. I often say things that don’t help the situation. It would help me if I could have 10 minutes and then maybe we could work together to resolve the situation,” says Karina Davidson, director of the Center for Behavioral Cardiovascular Health at Columbia University Medical Center.

— Jeanne WhalenThe Wall Street Journal

—CC—Although it’s unhealthy to get angry, sometimes it is

difficult not to . . . for example:Have you ever noticed that when you’re of a certain

age, everything seems uphill from where you are? Stairs are steeper. Groceries are heavier. And, everything is farther away. Yesterday I walked to the corner and I was dumbfounded to discover how long our street had become!

And, that’s not all. People are less considerate now, especially the young ones. They speak in whispers all the time! If you ask them to speak up they just keep repeating themselves, endlessly mouthing the same silent message until they’re red in the face! What do they think I am, a lip reader?

And they drive so fast today! You’re risking life and limb if you just happen to pull onto the freeway in front of them. All I can say is, their brakes must wear out awfully fast, the way I see them screech and swerve in my rear view mirror.

Even clothing manufacturers are less civilized these days. Why else would they suddenly start labeling a size 10 or 12 dress as 18 or 20? Do they think no one notices that these things no longer fit around the waist, hips, thighs, and bosom?

The people who make bathroom scales are pulling the same prank, but in reverse. Do they think I actually “believe” the number I see on that dial? HA! I would never let myself weigh that much!

Just who do these people think they’re fooling? I’d like to call up someone in authority to report what’s going on-but the telephone company is in on the conspiracy. They’ve printed the phone books in such small type that no one could ever find a number in there!

All I can do is pass along this warning: Maturity is under attack! Unless something drastic happens, pretty soon everyone will have to suffer these awful indignities.

Sunday we received a special blessing when Kelsey Sherry joined with Sara Chapman to sing our special “Bless the Lord O My Soul.” Sara played the piano and Kelsey played the drums. Always good to hear our young people singing.

Bro Larry’s sermon was taken from Deuteronomy 6:1-9 and entitled “The Secret to a Joyful Life.” God wants us to live joyful

lives. Much of the Bible and our own experience indicates that few people seem to be living such lives. Israel’s experience seems to be one of constant struggle. In fact all of hu-man history seems to be filled with wars, disasters and calamities.

Joy is not dependent upon favorable circumstanc-es. Moses delivered these words to Israel as they were about to enter the Promised

Land. They would inherit the promises of God only through perseverance. The greatest promise they had been given was that God would be with them.

The secret to a joyful life is keeping God first. “Hear, O Israel...” In this instance hearing must go far deeper than the physical sense. To “hear” is to take it to heart, and begin living as though we really believe it! Unless we are living by

this principle, we have not heard it.

We want to thank every-one who came to our craft bazaar and bake sale. We always enjoy visiting with

our friends and neighbors. Sunday we will be having

our Thanksgiving dinner. We invite everyone to at-tend.
