Daily News for Monday, October 31, 2011
JIM: The News dispenses advice By JIM Found in the November 5th, 1919 News Some things are timeless... If you like your town, say so. If you don't, keep still and try to improve whatever does not suit you. Remember that when you start knocking the town which you live in, you are also talking against yourself, your family, and your business. If other places seem more desirable than your own home town, it is only because they are at such a distance that you cannot perceive their imperfections. You are living now in the best town on earth. Tell people about it. Wisdom unearthed by JIM 2011-10-31 17:00:12 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Jim: History

I really get grumpy when you are waiting in line -the only one in line - to be checked out of the grocery the other day, and the checker was texting on her phone and I had to ask her if she would mind taking the time to check me out and just call me an old grump! And to make matters worse, she had the nerve to say, "In just a sec." Do I have a reason to complain? Or is it just some grumpy person?

George Rice no longer supports idea of Halloween George Rice writes: I appreciate the article that Sister Laura Harris has submitted on the history-origin of halloween. I, too -as most of us done - have had fun with tricks or treats, but as I have grown to an older age and became more aware of the original beginning of this occasion, as a child of God I do not want to participate in anything that would be displeasing to our Heaveny Father. So Sister Laura I will help in a small way to paddle that boat upstream with my feeling about halloween.Comments re article 47884 Rev Harris comments on Halloween Of Spooks and Saints 2011-10-31 04:45:31 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
lee barko agrees with Rev. Harris on Halloween lee barko writes: Rev. Harris is right. As Christians, we should never attempt to touch or make use of in any way a pagan symbol or practice: these are of their very nature devilish and contrary to Gods love, God's way and God's requirements for leading a life according to His word. They cannot be cleansed of their evil by ignoring their intended purpose and calling it a harmless children's holiday. What is harmless in allowing children to go from house to house demanding "treat" and threatening tricks if they are not given them even if the threat is not serious? Is making children into liars a harmless thing!Comments re article 47884 Rev Harris comments on Halloween Of Spooks and Saints 2011-10-31 04:40:19 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
