SOUTH HILLS KIWANIS BULLETIN 7/10/08

We miss GLORIA FREET, and ask the Lord to use his healing hand on all of her physical problems. The meeting was opened with MAC MC ALPIN leading the singing of "America" (My Country 'Tis Of Thee) without the assistance of a piano, because there was none in the room - and there was no P.. A. System.
HARRY ANDERSON led the Pledge of allegiance , and BILL MATTHEWS gave the invocation. TEX WILLIAMS' Thought For the Day:

"I heard my grandmother say this many, many times:
A bird never flies so far that its tail doesn't follow,
In other words, you'd best behave or we'll hear about it."
Wanda Sloan
