SENIORS, LOOKING BACK AT 1958

 

By Dr. Hoyt W. Allen, Jr.

 

Comments made in 1958...!

 

1) "I never thought I'd see the day all our kitchen appliances would be electric. They
   are even making electric typewriters now."
2) "It's too bad things are so tough nowadays. I see where a few married women are
    having to work to make ends meet."
3) "It won't be long before young couples are going to have to hire someone to watch
     their kids so they can both work."
4) "Marriage doesn't mean a thing any more; those Hollywood stars seem to be getting
     divorced at the drop of a hat."
5) "I'm just afraid the Volkswagen car is going to open the door to a whole lot of foreign
    business."
6) "Thank goodness I won't live to see the day when the Government takes half our
     income in taxes. I sometimes wonder if we are electing the best people to congress."
7) "The drive-in restaurant is convenient in nice weather, but I seriously doubt they
     will ever catch on."
8) "There is no sense going to the lake anymore for a weekend. It costs nearly $10 a
     night to stay in a hotel."
9) "No one can afford to be sick or have children any more.Office calls have raised to
     $3, along with a poke of pills, and when our child was born, the doctor charged $50
     and the hospital charged $12 a day for a room.
10) "If they think I'll pay 50 cents for a hair cut, forget it."
11) Imagine, some women are now attending church services and not wearing a hat or
     gloves.

12) If you have a black and white TV you are right up town.
13) Drive-In Theatres are becoming common.

14) Burger Chefs had a pretty good hamburger for 15cents.ï
15) Drive Through Banks were something for the future.
 

 Plainly, don�t get short changed. Let's be ready to meet our Maker. The Bible (in Acts) teaches that to avoid hell and gain heaven - one must:

1) Believe In Jesus As Savior (16:31 2) Repent Of Sins (17:30)

3) Confess Christ Audibly (8:37) 4) Be Baptized In Water (2:38)

5) Live A Christian Life (14:22) 6) Be Active In the Church (2:47)
