It was "grandmother's (Mrs. E.

C. Swain's) birthday and right off, our son Steve noted the obvious that it was something special to have Armstrong and Aldrin land on the moon on a birthday. Steve was the best informed and most interested of our family members in the moon walk. He wasn't always at the television, but he continually ran in and out of the den to catch up the action. He hud watched many previews and knew what plan the maneuvers would follow.

Probably the most notable thing our eight-year-old offspring did was flip himself over and view the television screen between his legs immediately after the reversed picture came From the moon. The instinct of a child who frequently looks at the world upside down must have come through to him quickly. He made some wise crack about all of us turning upside down so we could see it, loo, but about that time the technicians did it for us. For several hours prior to the actual walk, Steve worked with an old tape recorder that had lain dormant around the house for a couple of years. He trooped down to 7-11-7 for some new batteries and managed to gel the thing going in time to record man's first thoughts on rnoon walking.

Of course his fiddling with the thing, placing the microphone in the right spot and flipping it on and off did somewhat distract the resl of us, bul he found 11 history-making and unbelievable a must for his machine. Our daughter Ann thought it might be nice to make the trip but she did not especially wanl il to be on her honeymoon as her grandmother suggested. "I could go without being on a honeymoon, grandmother," she said. And our Becky was most interested in Armstrong's first comment, saying it would probably be discussed thoroughly in her history class Monday morning. The suspense, the excitement, the tenseness of the situation seemed more intense among- adults than among the youngsters.

They have lived through so much that is new, so much that seemed unbelievable; so much progress that this step on the moon is just a logical one in their thinking. They never doubted that it would be so. This morning Steve woke up with the next step already planned "Mother, they're going to Mars next; then Venus and then the stars. I hope I can go, too." He's not thinking in terms of being a part of the project, but of just going with his youthful enthusiasm. Some of the quotes I liked best during the excellent television coverage were from a girl at Disneyland: "This is like being in Tomorrowland at Disneyland only it's really today" and a young man standing in the rain in Central Park answering the question, "Why are you out there in rain with these people?" "because this is a moment of history you want to share; you can't just stay in your room and be This was truly a great moment to share.

We can count our blessings again; that we were here when It happened. It will probably be recounted in years to come and elicit the same reaction as our children have now when I recall the first television broadcast "Oh, Mother!" Rebecca Class Has Meeling Hebecca Sunday School Class of St. John's Methodist Church, met in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Howard J.
