One of the boys "shot" his dad and yelled, "Bang! You’re dead!"

Alta Vail of Emporia, Kansas, tells in Sunshine magazine how she found a new way to pray while ironing. One day she was thinking about the different kinds of lines—bus lines, clothes lines, fishing lines, telephone lines. Why not a prayer line? she asked herself. So she strung a short rope across

Around that verse, in verse 29 and then the verses following
