COURTESY
By ROBERT KLEM
I met a fri< nuly Irish man
And w passed the time o’ day
Top o the nioinin’ to you n y
friend
Was what I heai'd him say.
Good mornin Pat, I answered
him
All the rest o’ the day to you
And we both smiled and tipped
our hats
And passed as good friends do. j
A cheery word or a ready smile j
To greet each passing face;
They build good will and friend-1
ship too,
Right here or any place.
Hood morning friend, be seeing
you.
It keeps the spirits young.
Say “Adios or Aurevoir”
In any speech or tongue.
A greeting’s fine—a question, no
Don’t ask are you a liar
For you know that, as well as ne
And such remarks may tire.
So say Hello, or just say Hi
To any friend that’s passing by.
Don't ask a question when you
know
The answer has to be a lie.
That foolish question, “How are
you?”
Betrays no point or care
It’s parroted and sterotyped
And makes me tear my hair.
Where should I start, where
should I stop,
What reason and wrhat rhyme,
So parroted right back at you
That tiresome lie, “I’m fine.”
Deliver me stupidity
In other dress or wrapper.
Do not besmirsh our courtesy
With tiresome clitter-clatter.
I cry for help, as helplessly
I cope with foolish question.
I do admit it’s got me down
I need a good suggestion.
(I’m fine).
Light Up Your Christmas |
Both Inside and Outside
You can have lots of fun devising Christmas decorations that will
light up your holiday colorfully but inexpensively both inside and
outside your house. And to insure you against a dull and hazardous
Christmas, Jan Reynolds, Home Lighting Consultant of Sylvania
Electric Products Inc., has a few tips for you.
Try to keep your outside dec—
orations simple. Too many lights
will spoil the effect. One simple
but effecti%’e idea is to place a
spotlight in front
of a wooden
reindeer romp
ing across your
lawn. This will
not only light up
the reindeer but
also create a very
interesting sha
dow in the back
ground. Sylvan
ia‘s 150-watt Par
38 spotlights are
perfect for highlighting your out
side decorations.
Be careful to check all wires and
connections. Don’t take chances.
And be sure you buy flameproof
crepe paper for all your inside
decorations. For lighting your
tree buy sets of lights that are
multiple-wired so that each bulb
bums independently of the oth
ers. Thus, a defective bulb can
be detected immediately. Since
A LITTLE INGENUITY plus a
few bunches of needle pine, card*
board stars and twinkling colored
lights produce this bright door
way design.
the lighting is the focal point of
your entire tree decorating, take
painstaking care in the placement
of the lights in relation to your
other decorations. A little ingen
uity will produce a real eye-catch
ing old-fashioned Christmas tree.
rs
OUTSIDE YOUR HOME use large bulbs. These come in all colors
With weatherproof sockets and cord designed for burning bulbs out*
doors in cold weather.
Your car can help you see the
world — but you must decide
which world.
