stand ready to tell them I speak true!"
The Ancient One laughed, and spun his hand in the air. Light swirled
around him, and he changed into the form of a young Nordic youth in
armor. He stretched out his hand and the spiritual form of his Lady
appeared through the door of their little house dressed in a beautiful
Norse gown. She looked down at herself, and at the two before her, and
giggled. "Asgard?" she cried.
"Asgard!" The Ancient One answered. Loki
held out his hand, and a beautiful rainbow bridge appeared as if from
nowhere. And the three companions ran up it, laughing joyously.
THE END
The preceding story is fiction. Any resemblance
it bears
to true persons or places is coincidental, and not the intent of the
writer.
to see kids as kids and people as people? It's not enough if someone
says she is not a racist except for her attitudes towards Blacks. If
she feels that way , she 'is' a racist, and she needs to work on it,
and of course, admit it. The saddest thing
about bigotry is that it deprives all of us of some of life's beauty
and freedom. Even the bigot is hurt, for he
is self-confined by walls of stupidity, ugliness and hatred. And life
is too short to spend it confined.
One final word, if I may about another good reason to consider one of
the nation's 50,000 special needs children; Our kids are the only thing
on Earth that the Great Spirit will allow us to take to
the next world.

APRIL
8th, 1990
Today we lost a young hero, Ryan White, who had to fight a battle
against prejudice and misunderstanding which no one his age should have
had to fight. Though we have no sympathy for those who have contracted
Aids through homosexual activity or intravenous drug use, our hearts
are open to these young people whose lives have been cut short by
uncaring Aids carriers, who, knowingly continue to give blood to
support their ad- dictions. It is just another tragic example of the
sickness that is infesting our country.
Until the drug situation is taken seriously , until it is realized
tat users are not the victims, but the major cause, tragedies such as
this will continue to occur.
We express our sympathies to Ryan's family , and sincerely pray that
this unnecessary epidemic is brought under control , and there be no
more
tragedies such as Ryan's. A special place has been prepared for him
where he will know happiness and joy....it is unfortunate he had so
little in his short life.
EDITOR'S NOTE- Contributions to The Ryan White Fund For
The Care Of
Childhood Infections may be sent to the Indiana University Foundation
c/o Indiana University Hospital, in Indianapolis. Cards to the family
can be sent to P.O. Box 40, Noblesville, IND 46060.

A wise old farmer came out to his pigpen one morning to slop his hogs,
and found his prize winning boar missing. Going into the house he
informed his wife, and told her under no circumstances, to tell anyone
what had happened, and continued to go about his business, as usual. A
few weeks later a neighboring farmer stopped by to visit, and chatted
for quite awhile, then asked his crafty old neighbor if he had ever.
found out who had taken his prize hog. The old farmer gave him a wide
smile, and said "Not 'til now!"
