TRUE STORY? Mom Was Queen For A Day!
v--
— But This Week, She's Just....
MOTHERS DAY
fa.
Remember Mother! She never forgets!!
that gal around the house that picks up after
Dad and the children; finds the socks, shoes
and belts for all the family; cleans up the house;
cooks the meals and washes the dishes.
But it doesn't hurt Mother's feelings just
because you treat her like a queen once each
year (on Mother's Day). She still loves you. . . .
But you can make mother mighty happy,
make her feel like a queen each day during the
coming years. Just open a checking account in
her name and deposit a certain amount in it each
pay day to cover the grocery bills, the rent or
house payments, and a little extra for her It'll
not only make her feel like a queen, but you'll
find it solves a lot of your own personal financial
problems, too.
