Whether we are using Drano in a bathroom, or staining microbe slides for a laboratory, chemistry is part of being in the world.

It mayor may not agree with someone else's definition of "Christian". During John L.

It was presented by Mrs. Jack Scott (left) and Mrs. Garth Hamilton, both foster mothers. The gift was tied with a wide White ribbon upon which was typed the names of all the foster parents who shared in the thoughtful expression to Miss McGowan. The foster parents who are presently attempting to form a Foster Parents Association fondly remember Miss McGowan when she was director of the Huron County Children's Aid Society.

And I realize right now that to many people MY kind of "God" is blasphemy to their religion, so each of us just has to decide which God we will give our lives to.
