Queen oi Hearts" program. I feen honored to have the opportunity to tell you about niy mother, She has worked much of her life for others, to help raise me, and did much sacrificing. You may think what's so special about a working work-ing mother these days? Let me tell you why I think it is special. spe-cial. When I was small she did various kinds of work; when she was 48 years of age, at a time when many mothers glow down a bit, she went to Salt Lake and took training and passed her exam to be a telegraph tele-graph operator on the Union Pacific Railroad, gha Worked Lund and Milford. One of her duties was to daily go out in the freezing weather in the winter and hand up orders on a long pole to the trains, as they went whizzing y 8Q or 90 miles per hour.

She was also Santa Claus to my children for many years and gave them gifts that I could not afford, My mother is very resourceful, resource-ful, when one thing doesn't work she trys another. She never nev-er gives up. When I was a tev ager she wrote in my autograph' book, "You con have anything in this world - if you want it bad enough, hard enough, and long enough." I think this must have been her philosophy! While working for others, for many years she raised a large garden. She can cook up a storm, sew and do all the things that most women do, She paints with oils, and can sing and be happy. She can use a saw and hammer when the occassion is called for.
