Our grandson was teaching a Sunday School class and using for his text A Marvelous Work and a Wonder, by Elder LeGrand Richards. One morning as he was ready to leave for Sunday School, he couldn’t find the book. Rushing downstairs, he asked, “Has anyone seen the Marvelous Work and a Wonder?” Very solemnly and with deadpan expression his younger brother stood up and announced, “I’m right here. What can I do for you?”

Enjoying a midnight snack of canned juices as they traveled over Donner summit, they were startled when the flashing red light of a highway patrol car stopped them. After probing the interior of the automobile, the officer removed his hat, scratched his head, and said, “Five men heading for Reno in the middle of the night drinking V-8 Juice? I wouldn’t believe it if I hadn’t seen it. What will the Chief say when I report this one?”
