BROADIE Everyone seems so busy you may try to talk to someone sometimes It seems that no one has time to listen to others, except a very few parents have no time to listen to their chil dren. The children seem to have no time to hear what the parents have to say. It is the same way with husbands and wives and friends. Everyone rushing on not looking to the right or to the left. The Shepherd of Israel, who heard the pleas of those who called upon Him in the past is also the God of modern man and heard our cries. He is avail able at all times - morning, noon and night - in all places, and in all circumstances. He is a vailable to all who call upon Him in truth to the young and the aged, the edcuated and the uneducated, the distinguished and the rejected. He is not too busy to hear us when we call upon Him in truth. Are we too busy to call upon Him? Let us pray: Dear God, sometimes we fell so lonely and far away, but we are. so thankful that we can call on Thee for Thou art our re fuge and our strength, a very present help in trouble. Thou who art always near to us when we earnestly seek Thee, grant us the will to seek and the Joy of finding Thee through Jesus. Speak to our hearts when courage fails. Lift up the light of Thy countenance upon us when we are lonely and dis couraged. Our lives are so fill ed with haste and hurry and we need Thy peace to give us poise and Thy power to help us in the duties of the day. This we pray, in Jesus’ name, Amen.

Thought for the week is to Your professional hairdresser knows the answer... Was haircoloring first done in Africa? Centuries ago in Africa (before it was explored by Europeans) beautiful black women used herbs and other ingredients to change the color of their hair. It was one way to complement their dark rich complexions... to accent their natural warmth and beau y. Whether or not Africans were the first to use this method, no one is sure Yet, they are among the first in terms of recorded history to go through the then-tedious process of coloring their hair. Today changing your haircolor can be as quick and as brief as a > sit to your professional hairdresser. That's because many pro •ssional hairdressers use Miss Clairol" Hair Color to lighten hair, make slight color changes and to cover gray. Hairdressing ex i “rts know that exotic blacks and browns are generally gorgeous f. r darker skin tones. Golden or red shades are stunning for lighter twn complexions. -> Today black pride brings you closer to the cultural ways of your African heritage. Haircoloring is a part of black history too. Ask your professional hairdresser about changing your hair color with Miss Clairol... and be more beautiful than you already are ■ Clairol Inc. 1971 Ask for a free consultation. “Trust not the region of your birth.
