 SWEET RAIN
 By
 Richard A. Schrader, Sr.*
Come rain come
On the roof of our homes
Sweet music play.
Come rain come
Quench the thirst
Of the parched earth.
Come rain come
Raise the heads
Of trying Kalaloo.
Come rain come
Touch the roots
Of promising mango.
Come rain come
Pour out your life sustaining juice
To lake, river, and sea.
Come rain come
Rise to the heavens
Shower us with heavenly blessings
Again and again.


*Richard A. Schrader, Sr. has just had
a book of his poetry published entitled
"Home Sweet Home" which is available
at book stores.


 The Missing Ingredient 9
 By
 Rosalind Browne
 Extension Home Economics Aide
Why is it the lovely breakfast
you miss
And why the hurried goodbye kiss
Is it because you feel
Breakfast is not an important meal?
Well, you are wrong in your as-
sumption
It's an important part of your daily
food consumption
So eat some cereal, a fruit and an
egg
Or a bowl of soup or rice and
chicken leg.
You need to eat a nutritional
breakfast
After the long night is past
It refreshes your body the beginning
of the day
It gives a good start for work,
school or play.
It supplies the energy to get up
and go
Makes you more alert, more aglow
You'll be able to get more work done
Be more active and have more fun.


 So if you think skipping breakfast
 is cool
 And rush off to work or school,
 Remember, you're doing your body
 no good
 By not eating the Breakfast you
. \,: should.
