My wife told me this past week that she had heard about a new store for senior women called “Grandma Vickie’s Secret.”
It has the same stuff as the other lingerie places except the elastic has been replaced with steel cables.
—CC—Speaking of “seniors”, I
really enjoyed the following. It speaks for a lot of us “old timers.”
Excuse UsExcuse us if we drive too
slowly in front of you. We’re taking our time and enjoying the scenery. Have you looked at it lately?
Excuse us if we offer our help when you don’t need it. It’s not because we think you can’t do something, it’s because we’d like to see if we still can.
Excuse us if we talk too much about our ailments. We’d love to talk about other things, but no one asks us those questions anymore.
Excuse us if we don’t walk fast enough in front of you at airports, malls, and grocery stores. In our heads we are running (and we’re leaving you in our dust).
Excuse us if we prefer to watch old movies and com-edies. We’re from a generation where the good guys won and the comedy wasn’t blue. And we liked it better that way.
Excuse us if we want to be spoken to with respect. We were taught to respect our el-ders, and we have been looking forward to finally being treated that way ourselves. It’s been a long time coming. So do us a favor and let us enjoy it.
Excuse us if we ask you to call a little more often. Hear-ing your voice, even for only a minute, makes our day.
Excuse us if we don’t under-stand body piercing. We’re not out of it. We just get enough piercing from our weekly B-12 shots or insulin injections and can’t understand why anyone would want to voluntarily get stuck with needles.
Excuse us if it takes us a little extra time to rise from a sitting position. If our knees are weak, it’s from a lifetime of hard work. In our day, we admired that in a person.
Excuse us if we forget to wipe our mouths. There’s a chance someone wiped yours plenty of times when you were little.
Excuse us if when you visit, we don’t seem to want to let you go. We know we’ll have to, we just like to stretch out the moment as long as pos-sible.
Excuse us if we ask for a hug. It reminds us how much we’re loved and that’s better than the newest miracle drug on the market.
—CC—I was listening to a minister
this past week and his sermon was on “Whatever happened to old fashioned courtesy?”
Some things you just don’t hear much any more, such as please and thank you, and yes, sir and no, sir.
And your chance of finding a child with good manners is about the same as your chance of winning the lottery . . . actu-ally it is not just the youngsters, it is also us adults.
I heard a friend say this past week that if you see a man open the car door for a woman you know it is for one of two reasons. Either the car is new or the woman is new.
Good manners are not only the right thing but they can also come in handy. For example . . .
Little Brandon Smith had just been put to bed for the 22nd time, and his mother’s pa-tience was wearing thin. “If I hear you call ‘Mom’ one more time, you’ll be punished,” she warned him sternly.
For a while it was quiet and then a small voice called from the top of the stairs, “Mrs. Smith? Can I please have a drink of water?”
—CC—And since we are talking
about courtesy and integrity today, I want to share the fol-lowing story. Dave Meurer writes . . .
“The boys need to be at school extra early tomorrow for that project,” I mentioned casually to Donna one evening as we were getting into bed. “Plus, the weather report says we are going to have a nasty storm first thing. Fortunately for you, I am going to be the thoughtful and compassionate husband in the morning.”
“Thanks, hon,” she grinned.“Don’t mention it,” I re-
plied.Unusually alert, considering
the lateness of the hour, Donna immediately noticed that the alarm clock had been moved to her side of the bed.
“What is this doing here?” she asked suspiciously.
“Like I said, the kids have to go to school early,” I replied.
“You just told me YOU were
going to take them!” she re-torted.
“No, I said I was going to be thoughtful and compas-sionate,” I corrected. “Part of being a good husband is doing what is in the best interest of your spouse. I’m just trying to be helpful.”
“I am completely confused,” Donna replied. “Are you say-ing you are or are not planning are not planning are notto take the kids to school?”
“Hon, I would love to drive the kids to school. But as husbands and fathers, we men have a special obligation to the character development of
our families. Like it or not, God has given us this role. I think getting up early to take the kids will help develop your character. I am willing to give up this valuable character-building opportunity so that you can grow as a person,” I
School reunions are a great time to visit with family as well as former classmates. Pictured here are Jo Royer Walden, June Royer Vinson, Phillip Vinson and Charlotte Burright Vinson.

explained. “Oh, now I get it,” she replied, slapping her hand on her fore-
head. “This is all for my own good! And heaven knows you don’t need any character development! Why, you have more character in your left nostril than I have in my entire body. You are a walking festival of character! A veritable character factory, belching excess virtue out of your character smokestack!”
I blushed at the flattery. “Well, I don’t know if I’d go quite that far, but you are getting
the general idea,” I said. “Oh, but I’ve only just begun!” she exclaimed. “You have so
much surplus character that you could ship it to India and dole it out to underprivileged children! We could sell your superfluous character by the pound at huge discount warehouses! Soon, the entire nation would be awash in all the extra character you have been wasting all these years!”
“Donna, if I didn’t know better, I would kind of suspect that you’re getting a little bit sarcastic,” I said suspiciously.
“Not at all,” she replied. “Your extra character is the talk of the town. In fact, at church last week Pastor Paul came up to me and asked, “How do you manage to live with that character?’”
“You know, I could sort of take that two ways,” I mused. “You can figure out which way he meant it as you drive the
kids to school tomorrow,” she replied, handing me the alarm clock.
Vital Marriage Point: Some women are very resistant to character development.

Atwood Reunion
Quilts made by the late Odessa Triplett, former Al-len resident and member of the original Allen Quilters (now called The Material Girlz Quilters), were on display at
the group’s first annual quilt show. The show, which had 125 people visit and view the 103 quilts and quilt items on display, including the special Odessa display.
Odessa lived most of her life in the Allen area before health concerns moved her to Spanish Fort, Alabama to be near her daughter. While a resident of Allen, Odessa made a multitude of quilts and was a member of the Allen Quilters.
She attended the First Baptist Church and made it her mis-sion to make a each church baby a quilt at birth. According to others Odessa said, “I start (the quilt) when I learn the baby is coming, and that way it’s finished when the baby ar-rives.” Several of these special baby quilts were on display, including quilts owned by Lau-ren and Kayla Lawler.
Linda Knighten offered her quilt of appliqué flowers that is believed to be the last quilt Odessa made before moving from this area. This quilt is rep-resentative of Odessa’s favor-ite quilting method. She loved to appliqué, taught an appliqué class several years ago.
In addition to the baby and standard size quilts, several of Odessa’s smaller quilted items were on display. The Bargello style patchwork heart, a wedding gift for Mike and Tammy Lawler showcases Odessa’s quilting range and expert needlework.
Other quilt items exhibited were stuffed memory bears owned by Ty and Ely O’Daniel. The little bears were made by their grandmother (Mimi Me-lissa) using shirts from their great grandfathers. Shirts from their mother’s grandfather for
one bear each, and shirts from their father’s grandfather were used to make the other bear.
Among the hanging quilts were art quilts by Marsha Dun-can Poplin and a super king quilt designed by Paula Nel-son, and made by the Amish quilters of Clarita.
The Material Girlz meet the second and fourth Thursdays at 7pm in the Allen Library. Quil-ters of all stages (beginning to expert, improv to traditional) are invited to attend.

Classes Start July 9th
by Cleo Emerson LeVally The magazines these days
seem to have changed to meet the demands of those who use the iPhone, iPod, Blackberry and all the other new types of phones. They have gotten used to reading short subjects. Those phones now come with e-mail, computer, photos and many other things the maga-zines seem to be complying with to get those readers also. The users have become used to short messages.
All the stories in all mag-azines now are very short. People don’t seem to want to take the time to read a long
story. Many of the pages cover at least for different stories. A few years ago, I began to stop the renewal on magazines that I had subscribed to for years, because the content had changed so much. However, I did keep my subscription to one because it ran a novel each month. Those stories I enjoyed. That magazine discontinued the novel about four years ago and I no longer take the maga-zine.
Are you subscribing to Time or The Saturday Evening Post?
Notice the difference in the content between now and a few years ago? Also, I had a subscription to the Reader’s Digest because I really did like the stories. Often there would be a story that I would save and I have a shoebox full of those articles that I thought were worth saving. I get them out and reread them occasionally.
A Reader’s Digest magazine prior to the year 2000 would perhaps have 14 or 15 good articles and stories. Also, one that I saved dated May 1970
had 27 titles in the index and many of the articles had stories that ran from 4 to 6 pages long. There were 262 pages in that magazine. Also, there was a book-length novel in each of those old magazines. There was one book-length novel in this one that ran for 18 pages. The one I received in July 2013 had 8 articles listed in the con-tents page and had 184 pages in the whole magazine. Most of it was comedy and each of these subjects ran one and one-half
page. Some as many as four subjects to a page.
Most of my reading now is from books I check out of the library. The authors I have liked over the years keep writ-ing and I keep finding their stories and read them. My pur-chase in the sometime future may be an eReader. I am look-ing for time savers too. With that, I won’t have to mark my place and worry about where I stopped. I can just open it and start reading.
Does anyone long for the good ole days? I often do.

Water Aerobics Begins
There are a lot of things I don’t like about growing old. In fact, just recently I discovered is that I am no longer growing old—I’m al-ready there. You know this when you walk through the cemetery and you have more friends resting there than you have walking the streets of Allen. Another thing I’ve noticed is that people have become strangely inhib-ited. They like to hide their identity by not looking like they did just a bit ago back in time. A law needs to be passed so they would have to wear name tags. It would also help if the name plate
also had a picture of them. I would think it would help even more if the picture was taken while they were yet in school.
My Salt Lake City, Utah correspondent, a “somewhat past middle aged” old sailor named Dick True managed to remain in his middle age longer than me—so far. In fact just the other day he sent me a list of things I should have learned (but haven’t) by the time we leave middle age—which as I said, I have.
If you are too open-·minded, your brains will fall out. Age is a very high ·price to pay for maturity.Artificial intelligence ·i s no match for natural stupidity.If you must choose ·between two evils, pick the one you have never tried before.Not one shred of ·evidence supports the notion that life is serious. It is easier to get forgiveness than permission.For every action, ·there is an equal and opposite government program.If you look like your ·passport picture, you probably need the trip.Bills travel through ·the mail at twice the speed of checks.A conscience is what ·hurts when all of your other parts feel so good.Eat well, stay fit and ·die anyway.Men are from earth. ·Women are from earth. Deal with it.No man has ever been ·shot while doing the dishes.A balanced diet is ·a cookie in each hand.Middle age is when ·broadness of the mind and narrowness of the waist change places.Opportunities always ·look bigger coming than going.Junk is what you ·keep for years and toss 3 weeks before you need it.Exper ience i s a ·wonderful thing. It enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.You shouldn’t weigh ·more than your refrigerator.
Someone who thinks ·logically provides a nice contrast to the real world.It’s not the jeans that ·make your butt look fat.Marriage is like a hot ·bath. It ain’t so hot once you’ve been in
it for awhile. I apologize for that last
one—it’s a Donny Johnson saying. Don’t blame Dick True for it.
Have a good weekend and be sure to go to church Sunday.

Has God called or “drawn” you? Are you waiting for God to “draw” you to be saved? Does God “draw” certain peo-ple to receive the forgiveness of their sins and not others? Right or wrong, this seemed to be the teaching recently expressed by a certain preacher.
Jesus said, “No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him.” (John 6:44) Did Jesus mean that God draws some people and not oth-ers? Do we believe that God is a respecter of persons? In the very next verse, Jesus explained HOW God “draws” people. He said, “It is written in the proph-ets, ‘And they shall all be taught by God.’ Therefore everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to Me.” (John 6:45) From Jesus’ own explanation we learn that God draws people to Him through teaching; by hearing and learn-ing His word, the gospel (good news) of Jesus Christ.
The Apostle Paul wrote, “He called you by our gospel, for the obtaining of the glory of our
Lord Jesus Christ.” (2 Thess 2:14-15) The same Apostle also wrote “For whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?” (Rom 10:13-14) It is by the “good news” of sal-vation through Jesus that God calls us; by the truth that God so loves us that He gave Jesus, “His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16)
Jesus sent his Apostles into all the world to “preach the gospel to every creature” in order to draw people to Him. And, He added, “He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.” (Mark 16:15-16) If you have heard the good news that God so loves you that He gave His son as a sacrifice to die so you might have eternal life in heaven with Him, then God has called you. Through that good message, God is knocking at the door of your heart as Jesus said to the church at Laodicea, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.” (Rev 3:20) You have been called by this message from God! Won’t you open the door and let Jesus in!
Billy Joe Gillean passed away on Monday, June 10, 2013 at the Integris Hospital in Oklahoma City. He was born on June 5, 1934 in Magazine Mountain, Arkansas to Archel Devine “Dude” Gillean and Nellie May (Brown) Gillean.
Billy worked for many years as an Aircraft Mechanic for Lockheed, he also worked as a carpenter, for the peanut plants at Allen, Holdenville and Calvin, and as a farmer. Billy enjoyed the outdoors, fishing and hunting. He was a beekeeper and loved to

Sunday was the day we honored our fathers in the congrega-tion. Each father there received a pie. We want them to know how much we love and appreciate them. Our quartet sang the song “Son, Go Bring my Children Home,” for the special.
Bro. Larry’s sermon was taken from Genesis 22:1-13 and entitled “A Father of Faith.” We need to listen for the voice of God. Do you suppose that it’s ever been easy to hear the voice of God? Was Abraham’s life and world so very differ-ent from ours? To hear God demands that we make ourselves available to Him. To hear God requires us to do what does not come naturally; be still! Abraham had no written word to guide him, he had to listen! We now have the Word of God to guide us. Is it any easier for us to hear Him speak? Abraham was all alone in his faith, we are not. God has given us each other to help along the way. We each need to be growing in the faith and helping others, especially family.
Abraham clearly led his family in the matters of faith. Even at a relatively young age Isaac knew about the ritual of sacrifice. His father’s faith was demonstrated before him daily. Nothing can compare to the influence of a godly father living out his faith daily. It is likely that Abraham talked about God, but it is obvious that he lived for God. Nothing in all the world was more precious to Abraham than his son Isaac. Abraham’s faith was tested at the point of his most precious “possession.”
The point is that whatever we value most becomes our God. The first commandment is “thou shalt have no other gods before me.” It was never God’s intention for Abraham to offer a hu-man sacrifice. God’s purpose in this was to reveal the depths of faith available to humanity. We can trust God with everything! When we are willing to give our all, God will provide. Abra-ham trusted completely, obeyed without hesitation and saw God provide. So can we.
We invite you to attend Sunday School and church with us next Sunday.

Don was born and raised in Warren, Ohio. When he was only 17, he moved to California and that’s where he met Mom. They were married for more than 29 years. He was a great Dad and took my older brother and me on weekend fishing trips. We moved back to Oklahoma to care for my Grandma – and liked it so much we stayed. Dad worked for years in heating and air-conditioning and eventually opened his own successful business. He was intelligent, funny and loved to ride his Harley.Dad was hurt in a motorcycle accident, and he never recovered. It didn’t surprise any of us to find out that he signed up to be a donor.

Father’s Day at Harmony Missionary Baptist Church of Gerty began with singing Wonderful Words Of Life, The beautiful Gar-den Of Prayer, and He Whispers Sweet Peace To Me. Church Singers plus Cathy Wilson sang The Old Rugged Cross Made The Difference, and Leave It There.
Devotional Reading was “Realities of Discipleship”, Matthew 10:16, 21-22, 34-39. Adult Lesson was “Choose Wisely”, Ruth 2:1-23. The choice of a husband or a wife is too important to rely on your personal judgment alone. Commit the selection of your spouse to God. “A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband; but she that maketh ashamed is as rottenness in his bones”, Proverbs 12:4.
Youth Lesson was “Forgive For Him”, Colossians 3:12-13, Luke 17:3-4, Matthew 6:14-15. Forgiveness is a reflection of Jesus Christ living in you. Through Christ’s strength forgive those who wrong you.
We were blessed to have Cathy, David and David Jr. Wilson in service. They are working in Wyoming.
Cathy and Denise joined us in singing In The Sweet By And By, and Where We’ll Never Grow Old.
Bro. David’s message was taken from Genesis 17:1-9, “A Covenant with Abraham.” Father’s Day favors were passed out to the fathers.
Here is a tribute to Bro. Marsh. His Father’s Day card said:
The Nickell family celebrated their 114th family reunion on June 9th, 2013, at the Allen Masonic Lodge.
James and Francis Nickell and 12 of their 14 children migrated to Indian Territory at the end of the Civil War. They settled at Citra, a small village sought of Allen. It was a cold day in the winter of 1899 when the last Nickell family wagon arrived.
A family celebration was planned for that night. Their log cabins were too small for such a large family group so a large campfire was built and their
wagons formed a circle around it. It was decided that night that all future reunions would be held in the spring or summer when it was warm. For years it was a picnic on Boggy Creek under the shade of the pecan trees, and their tables were clean sheets spread on the ground that were covered with a ton of delicious food.
After the meal, they enjoyed group singing and would sing until it was time to depart. After the home place was built at Citra it became the meeting place and each family would bring their own chairs and sit in the front
yard to eat. The long front porch was the children’s table and their plates were filled first. And, after the meal, the singing began.
The reunions still have lots of food, but they’re all too anxious to visit to want to sing. Plans were made for next year’s reunion.
Faith in God and strong family ties was the code by which James and Francis lived. That was the legacy they left for their many descendants and it has been the glue that has held their family together for over 100 years.
The above picture was made just a few years ago when Joseph
