  1. (continued from previous page)
    The help of God is nearer than the door
    Time and tide waits for no man
    Too many cooks spoil the broth
    Vice brings shame and sorrow
    Where there is smoke there is fire
    Youth is bold but age is wise
    Iris Allison

  3. An apple a day keeps the doctor away
    A darn is better than a hole
    A merry heart goes all the day your sad one tires in a mile
    A half a loaf is better than no bread
    Bear ye one another's burdens
