May 1946, St. Luke's Monthly Newsletter - Sports Issue, and the Veterans are Home









One time I asked, "Mom," how did you start to get to know Dad?"

Replied she: "At a retreat."

I expressed doubt: "How? At a retreat, don't you just pray and meditate and go to Mass?"

She said, "Well, you also spend all afternoon walking around the gardens with no interruptions."

I objected:  "But you couldn't talk, could you?"

She said, "Not a lot.  But then at a certain stage you don't have to talk a lot."


Our JPZ is at left. Next is a mystery person; then Fr. Tomiak, mystery lady, Fr. Fimowicz; Al Mazikowski who coached the basketball players and went with them to Chicago; four mystery persons.





"Your Day . . .by Us" means "You Humans as Perceived by Us Churchmice."  The feature starts out with a variant on the opening line used in hundreds of Catholic-Protestant jokes.  I had forgotten all about Catholic-Protestant jokes; they were funny but I don't remember any.

If the font is too small, do Alt +
