The Sons of Knute hang storm their windows. It's been a chaotic week. The Feast of St. Francis begins with the blessing of the animals. Father Emil is allergic to most animals, yet he leads the parade to the church riding a Percheron. Then he preaches a sermon on St. Francis and the blessings of poverty, which nobody believes. Brother Bob and Sister Verna came to town to lead a four day revival at LW Lutheran. People believe that LW is a town of decent God-fearing people but Brother Bob preaches that LW is Sodom out on the prairie. Father Emil feels that Protestants do this out of boredom with an inferior theology. The Soderbergs celebrated their 40th Anniversary. Harlan got roaring drunk and the next morning Brother Bob paid a call. Harlan pointed a shotgun at his head and said that he would blow himself to eternity and take his chances. The LW town council considered a community TV antenna. Brother Bob spoke against it and it lost 4 to 0. GK likes to lie on the ground and look at the sky.
The Milwaukee Brewers are playing the LA Angels in the AL finals. Station WHA is celebrating its 65th anniversary. GK knows that he is a biscuit, not a croissant. Skit: For Whom the Sun Rises.
