One little girl began her prayer like this: "Our Father, who
are in heaven, hello! What be Thy name?"
A boy who thought he knew the answer to that question, prayed,
"Our Father, who art in heaven, Harold be Thy name."
The prayer of another boy went like this: "Our Father who art
in heaven, Hollywood be Thy name."
A girl whose visiting uncle was a horse player bowed her head
with a plea that God "give us this day our daily double."
A five-year-old girl who was trying to cope with Sunday School
and kindergarten at the same time came up with this charming
blend of Church and State: "Give us this day our daily bread,
and liberty and justice for all."
Another kindergarten child asked God to "give us this day our
jelly bread."
Then there was the little boy who prayed, "Forgive us our
dentists, as we forgive our dentists."
Another boy pleaded, "Lead us not into creation."
Or the farmer's boy who said, "Deliver us from weevils."
Another boy prayed to God to "deliver us from eagles."
And a boy climaxed his prayer like this: "For thine is the
kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever and ever, Amen
and F.M."
