GRANDMOTHER'S PUNS Grandmother Joss had a quiet sense of humor and was not above having a little fun with the language: In Bensenville the church bell was rung at 5 p.m. every Saturday afternoon to remind us that the following day would be Sunday and our presence in church would be appreciated. Grandmother's usual comment was: "Ah, die Kirche bellt schon."
