                *SUNDAY CLOTHES*

                *
                A little boy was walking down a dirt road after church
                one Sunday afternoon when he came to a crossroads where
                he met a little girl coming from the other direction.*
                **
                *'Hello,' said the little boy*
                **
                *'Hi,' replied the little girl.
                'Where are you going?' asked the little boy.
                'I've been to church this morning and I'm on my way
                home,' answered the little girl.
                'I'm also on my way home from church. Which church do
                you go to?' asked the little boy.
                'I go to the Catholic church back down the road,'
                replied the little girl. 'What about you? '*
                **
                *'I go to the Baptist church back at the top of the
                hill,' replied the little boy.*
            *
            They discover that they are both going the same way so they
            decided that they'd walk together.*
            *
            They came to a low spot in the road where spring rains had
            partially flooded the road, so there was no way that they
            could get across to the other side without getting wet.*
            *
            'If I get my new Sunday dress wet, my Mom's going to skin me
            alive,' said the little girl.*
            *
            'My Mom'll tan my hide, too, if I get my new Sunday suit
            wet,' replied the little boy.*
            *
            'I'll tell you what I think I'll do,' said the little girl.
            'I'm gonna pull off all my clothes and hold them over my
            head and wade across.'*
            *
            'That's a good idea,'replied the little boy. 'I'm going to
            do the same thing with my suit.'*
            **
            *So they both undressed and waded across to the other side
            without getting their clothes wet. They were standing there
            in the sun waiting to drip dry before putting their clothes
            back on, when the little boy finally remarked:
            **'You know, I never realized before just how much
            difference there really is between a*
            *CATHOLIC **and a **BAPTIST!!!'*
             
Fight organized crime!  Re-elect no one.

"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

Theodore Roosevelt 1907
