Inthat atmosphere your Rhodesianbrethren set off to enjoy theFestival that pictures that time.when the word convoy will be aword studied only in history les­sons in the schools of the WondTomorrow ."

It you renewed your YOU membership d\Xing the Feast but haven 'treceived your membership card yet, don't worry.The YOU staff hasn ·tforgotten about you .

Theirembossing machines have just arrived and they 're now atwor1<

making the cards for YOU members . Your new membersh ip cardsshould be in the mail within three weeks.

WORRIED ABOUT YOUR YOUMEMBERSHIP CARD?

The procedure is simple but highly beneficial toAmbassador College. You need only ask youremployer if he has such a gift-matching program. If hedoes, obtain a gift-matching form and mail it to us.

This form would merely request verification of yourcontributions to the college. Afte r we return theverification , your compan y woul d contribute amatching amount. It's just as simple as that, and yetyou have in effect doubled your contributions.

If your company does have such a program, pleasebe certain to write and inform us immediately. Wewould be pleased to give .you further information onthis subject and answer any questions. To aid in theprocessing of your letter, please write to: Ralph K.Helge, Legal Department, Box 111, Pasadena, Calif.,91123.

("WITHOUT GIVING ONE DIME MORE)It's no gimmick ; it's possible. You might be able todouble your contributions and yet not give one moredime of your own money.

Don 't put it off. Contact your employer today.

The answer is found in a tax benefit the InternalRevenue Service grants certain companies when theydonate to nonprofit edu cational organizati ons.Because of this, many companies have set up what isgenerally called a "gift-matching program" for their

.employees. Under these programs employers matchdonations of their employees to nonprofit educationalinstitutions.

Charlie and Sue Avery sal on the livin g-room floor. Seven­yea r-old C harlie was playing with a farm set his father had boug htfor him the day before ut the department store in the nearby cit y. Itwasfun assembling the buildi ngs and the fence on a gree n­carpeted board that was to be the grass for the anima ls graz ing inthe pasture .

With the last section of the fence in place , he began placin g thecow s and horses and the fowls at the exac t spot where theybelonged on the farm .

Even the dog, Spo t, 'was placed in front of the porc h steps.sitting looki ng up toward Puffy; the ca l on the porch roof, andchalle nging her to come down and play fa ir.

Problems witb bouse

But 5-year-old Sue was having problems assembling the co lo­nial dollhouse her father had bo ught her. She co uld nOI get theroof to snap in place .

In the mea ntime a window had fallen out. And for somemysterious reason the doorkn ob refused to tum to unlatch thehuge bronze-colored door . Sue let out a long, impatient sigh.

Charlie turned 10 sce what his siste r was doin g wron g. " Wa ntsome help ?" he said with the confidence that he co uld have thehouse together in no time at all.

.. No. thank you. Daddy showed me how to put it togethe r lastnight , and I want to find how it goes all by myself. See? The top ison!" .

But after a few minutes onger , wearil y pondering how to gelthe windows to stay in and get the doo r open, she decided shewould just have 10 wait until Daddy came horne to show her oncemore how to put the do llhouse togethe r.

She curled up in the cl ub chair and tried very hard to go tosleep. She held her eyes very tightly close d, but the occas ionalclang of a pan as Mother work ed in the kitchen, and the delicio usfragrance of Th anksgiving dinner, made Sue reali ze how hungryshe was . "

Afte r what seemed a long. lon g while. she asked. " Mommie ,whe n are we going to ear?"

Cbecking on new calf

Sue could hear her swishing something around in a bowl as sheanswered : " When Daddy gets back.Hes gone into the pasture tosee if the new baby calf has arrived in time for Thank sgiving. Inthe meantime why don 't you co me set the table for Mornrnie?"

As Sue jumped up and raced into the kitchen , Charli e carefullyplaced a toy turkey gobbler on a fence post. Then he too jumpedup and ran into the kitchen. ca lling to his mother. " Mommic.guess what !"

"1 wo uldn 't have any idea w ha t to guess. Charlie boy . what ' son your mind?"

. ' Yesterday Miss Polk read us a story abo ut how the Pilgrimsand the Indians ce lebrated the firs t Thanksgiving. They sureseemed 10 have a lot to be tha nkful for: '
