Society, my dear, is like salt water, good to swim in but hard to swallow.

Arthur Stringer, "The Silver Poppy"

This year in we’ve been trying to spend one Family Home Evening each month doing something with our Family History. This month we decided to go to the University Library and see if they had any books written by Mike’s great-grandfather Arthur Stringer who was a poet, author, and movie writer. Lucky for us we found not one book, but over a dozen! We picked out one, The Woman in the Rain to read out of tonight. Below we have a picture of the shelf with his books, a picture of the book we borrowed, and one of the poems we read.
