Franklin Shopping Center 356-2310 Realities of Life Are Sometimes Rough I've gotten used to my arthritis; To my dentures, I've resigned, I can manage my bifocals But, 0 Lord, I miss my mind. Just a line to say I'm living And I'm not among the dead; But I'm getting more forgetful And I'm mixed up in my head. For sometimes I -can't remember When I stand at the foot of the stairs If I'm going up for something, or If I've just come down from there. And before the frig' so often, My poor mind fills with doubt; Whether I've just put food away Or just come to take some out! So, if it's my turn to write or call you, Ther's no need in getting sore; I may think I've already done so, And don't want to be a bore.

It is our aim to make it a state in which the exiles of our people are gathered together and in which happiness and knowledge shall prevail and the vision of the pro- phets of Israel shall il- lumine our path. At this hour when blood- shed and strife have been forced upon us we turn to the Arabs in the Jewish State and to our neighbors in adjacent territory with an appeal for brotherhood, cooperation and peace. We are a peaceful people, and we are here to build in peace. Let us then build our state together as equal citizens, with equal rights and obligations, with mutual trust and respect, each with a true understanding of the other's needs. Our laws are dedicated to defending the liberty of our people. If further trials and battles are in store for us, we shall defend with all our might the achievement upon which we place our hope. Right is on our side. With us are the hopes of the past generations of our people. With us is the con- science of the world. With us are deposited the testa- ment of the millions of our martyred dead and the resolute will to live of the millions who have surviv- ed. The sanctity of our martyrs and heroes rests upon us and the God of our fathers will help us.
