BY MRS. LYDIA WILLIAMS This has been a busy week, as all of them are, and it is true when we are busy, time passes quickly. But some folk are satisfied to just not do a thing. Albert Pike, whose remarks I appreciate; once said, "As we grow old, we get tired. We lay aside our youthful idealistic goals--those wonderful dreams of accomplishments" for our fellowmen.

Just when we are at the peak of maturity and wisdom we, somehow or other, just plain' get bogged down in the dreary routine of. ekeing out a living. This should not be so: each of us should 'Leave Something How barren a tree is, that lives and spreads out shade, yet does not have one seed that another tree could grow from. Some people are like that. They leave not one good work to live on after they are gone.

We all cannot leave the same good work behind, yet we all can leave something. We may do much in a few years or we may do nothing in a lifetime. If we just eat, drink, and sleep and let everything go on around us as it pleases, or if we live but to lay up wealth or gain an office or wear a title, we might as well not have lived at all or have any right to expect immortality. Picture with Words I think the most beautiful picture ever made of Christ was not made with a paint brush but was made of words by Paul in Acts 10:38, and he took just five words to make it: went about doing good." It would take only three words to make a word picture of many of go about." We are on the go all the time but at the end of the day, what have we done to make a single person say, "'I wish she or he would come this way again." I enjoy reading "Maxims From Poor Richard's Almanac." One that Mother often repeated to us as we were growing up was: "A good example is the best sermon." And it was Roy Rogers who said, "I had rather see a sermon any day than to hear one." We can see some mighty fine sermons here at Parkview by watching some of the residents and how beautifully they take the fact that they cannot do the things they were able to do some years ago, and to quote "Poor again. "Content makes poor men rich: discontent makes rich men poor;" and "They who pleasure give, shall joy receive;" and that was proven to me the other day when I went out for the coffee break and the members of the auxiliary were just as busy as could be helping the residents that were able to come to the dining room, 'and taking coffee, cookies or ice cream to those who were not able.

Mrs. Norine Lipperdt was one of the regulars I named last week. Also Stella Taylor who is employed but finds time after work, and so does Margaret Smith and there are many others who are "getting joy by giving joy to others. You could tell by the smiles on their faces. Who's County's Oldest? proud of our 101- year-old resident, Lois Buckley, here at Parkview.

Mr. Charles Adamcik, another of our residents who is not nearly that old, handed me a copy of The Fayette County Record with an article in it of a La Grange resident who celebrated her 105th birthday February 24-Mrs. Frances. Balko, and that she is still in fairly good health. I wonder if we have any in Colorado County who can beat that? It made me remember the story of the elderly man who had been sick a long time and asked the doctor when he was ever going to make him well.

The doctor replied, "I'm no wizard, I can't make you any younger." The patient replied, said. I wanted to be younger? I just want to be sure I'm going to keep on getting older." That's the way many of us feel. We don't want to be younger, but we sure want to feel good and enjoy life, and live to get older. Catholics Lead The Sunday Religious Service at 4 to 4:30 p.m. March 3 was with the Catholic Church in charge, led by Rev.

Adolph Janda with Mrs. Wm. Osina and John Hajovsky assisting. Rev. Janda read scriptures from Deut.

91 Psalm: Romans and Luke 13 which is the story of Jesus after He was baptized in the Jordan River. He was led by the spirit into the wilderness where he was tempted by the devil for 40 days and Christ ate nothing all that time. Then the devil, knowing Christ was hungry said, "If you are God's Son, command this stone to become bread:" Jesus did not, and in Luke. 4:8 "Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt thou serve." Two more times Satan tried, but had no luck. Takes Works Too In the letter that Paul wrote to the church at Rome, Rev.

Janda spoke on the importance of faith, but that faith is useless without works. He said among many other things about the importance of faith that we should use it as our road map to Heaven, and what is the use of having a road map to some place you want to get to if you don't use it. That is what our Bible is for and we should read it every day, and it will lead us to Heaven -if we have faith to follow the directions it gives us. We thank Rev. Janda and look -forward to his being with us each Wednesday at 10 a.m.

Everyone is welcome to these services. The United Church of Christ will be in charge of the services March 10; Faith Lutheran, the 17th; Baptist, the 24th; and Methodist, 31st. Remember the time Sunday-4 to 4:30 in the afternoon. Visitors Appreciated The weather has been nice and we have had a lot of visitors whom we always enjoy. Mrs.

Alma Gillette's son. Roy, of Dallas, took her out to Frank's Restaurant at Schulenburg for Sunday dinner. Mr. Leonard Heinsohn's daughter visited him. Mrs.

Lily Hodges is back from a visit with her daughter Mrs. Lida Mills and family at Wharton. Mrs. Lelia Meisell attended the Methodist Church with her daughter Mrs. Henry Herder and Mr.

Herder, and had dinner with them. She also had her regular long distance phone call Sunday evening from her son Harry and wife Bonnie in San Antonio. Mrs. Lucille Miller and her son Royce took me to both the morning and evening services at the Baptist Church. Mrs.

Julia Janak had a number of visitors. Among them was her granddaughter Mrs. Robert Balzar of Austin. Mr. Chas.

Adamcik was visited by Msgr. A. J. Morkovsky of Hostyn. They had a great time talking.

I also met Msgr. Morkovsky. A fine gentleman. It was so pretty Mrs. Willis Youens took me out for a while but I was back in time for our March birthday party on the 4th.

Party Enjoyed The old saying is that "It's an ill wind that does not blow somebody and there sure was a wind that day and it must have been a good one for it sure "blew" in a lot of folks for our birthday party for Agnes Pustejovsky, SelmaKlatt, Charley Pavlik, Adele Herzik, Julia Peters and Lily Hodges. The youngest is Charley Pavlik who will be 70 the 13th and Selma Klatt, the oldest, who will be 98 the 7th. With the ages of the other four it adds. up to 498 years. They have been good years.

We appreciate the many auxiliary members and friends that helped to make it a real party. Mrs. Mildred Carroll has a club meeting that day but she left her club early and came to the party and played the piano for awhile. I was glad to see Mrs. Robert Hyman at the party.

When I came to Weimar Sept. 21, 1968, Mrs. Hyman was the first to ask me to join a club that she belonged to and that made me feel real good for I had not met ber before and appreciated her welcome to Mr. and Mrs. Edward Guenther helped Mrs.

Agnes Pustejovsky celebrate. -A Table Full It was not Mrs. Alma Melor's birthday but she had a table full of guests. Mrs. Steve Rabel, who visits her very often, about three times a week.

Also visiting her from Beasley, Texas, were Mrs. Meta Paweleck, Mrs. Hilda Duebbe and Mrs. Norma Emschoff, three sisters. Rev.

Leslie Weyman pastor of the Lutheran Church at Columbus is another regular birthday visitor. And what a help it is for. the auxiliary members to serve the cake, punch and coffee. There were plenty of them on the job. Also Buddy Yoder to take pictures.

Thanks to all of you. Mrs. Etta Lanier's daughter Mrs. Lamoss Moore of Houston visited her and others during the birthday party. Mr.

Preston Simmons went. to Columbus for a few days. 'We all miss him. Mrs. Lelia Meisell and I had a delightful day with the Baptist women in the Educational Building of the church attending the program on Home Missions.

The lunch sure was good, too. The program brought to our attention that our "Christian America" is a mission field and needs our prayers. Janda at Mass Our Wednesday Mass, 10 to 10:30, was conducted by Rev. Adolph Janda assisted by Mrs. Wm.

Osina. He read scriptures from Jonah John Luke He stressed the truth that God does forgive our sins regardless of how small or large they are, but we must ask Him and then believe He has, but we must not keep repeating the sin and must pray for Him to give us the strength to overcome them. If we are Christians we will live a good life not only in church but wherever we are. with God's help. Rev.

Janda will be with us each Wednesday if possible. Mr. Emil Traulsen was to his daughter Mrs. Ruth Schwegmann's home. Mr.

James Hines' son of Houston and his family visited him. We the residents and employees want to thank Mr. Norbert: Zatopek for the big, big box of chocolates for all of us and they sure were good. Thursday. 3 to 4, was another delightful hour of music we love as only Mrs.

Agnes Brasher can play it. We appreciate it. 98th Birthday Thursday. March 7, was Miss Selma Klatt's 98th birthday and a number of her relatives and friends came and had coffee and cake with her. When Isabel Braun was leaving she said, "I will be here to celebrate your 100th birthday." And Miss Selma with her eyes sparkling quickly said, "And I hope I will be here too." Her mind is so sharp she is one that will never grow old mentally.

What a joy she is to talk to. We need more like her. in the hospital YOUENS MEMORIAL John Hluchanek, Mrs. Claude Venghaus, Ernest Weishuhn, Mrs. Birdie Riehs, Columbus.
