AND BRING. Y`
I was warned by my family •not
to write a column about this;
however, . no fearless columnist
has ever been, deterred: by threats.
I can alwaysgeta room at the
YMCA for 'a, few days, if worst
comes to. worst.
- My son Hugh is going to pre-
sent a pianorecital in a couple
of weeks at, the Conservatory, in
the city. The announcement: has;
created a flurry of , excitement,
alarm and despondency that will
likely be unequalled until the day,
my daughter declares that she
is going to be married.
Needless to say, the; one who
is excited, alarmed anddespon-
dent is not I. Nor is it my daugh-
ter. Nor . is it the •'star : of the
evening, himself.
In fact, . he , is quite cool 'about
it. So cool, indeed, that he isn't
quite sureof the date, - the place,
the time, or how much it will cost
his, aid man.
No, it's his mother who is pan=
icking. First of all, she demands
to know, in the name . of all that
is ridiculous, how he ' hopes. `. to
have ' his -...pieces ready in such a
short time. _ "It's impossible!" she
wails. "It's out of the , question.
You are a'. mutt!"
The 'nextminute, she's dolefully
predicting that nobody will come
to the recital, and that, we'll be
disgraced, • shamed forever in the
eyes of . uh .: I don't
know whom, •, exactly. .
We fightback; of course. Hugh
goes into . a vague, involved ex-
planation of . how he...can_ get : his
pieces in shape. It has to do with
turning over new leaves, :;letting,
no grass grow underfoot, .nose to.
grindstone, . shoulder to wheel . and,
stitches in -time --
"IHah! snorts his mum. "The
only ` thing that will save your
bacon is divine intervention," or
something of the sort, she inti-
mates. ..
I step in to.. pour oil .on' .the
fiery waters, or tears of rage,
as some call them. I assure her,
that the hall.. will be filled, the

applause will lift the, 'roof, the
critics will proclaim , a new Pad-
erewski, and we'll all be. proud,
rich and happy ever' after,'
There'll . be nobody: there hut the
family," .,'she says flatly.. She.
hadn't even heard me. ."Not a
soul . will come."
We proceed to prove her .wrong.
We count up the, aunts and cousins
,who • HAVE to come. We count,
up: the friends and students who
MIGHT come' . Totals Is about 23.
"You see?" . triumphantly. "You
people- aren't realistic. We'll be
a, laughing -stock. It's going to be
a big. ;flop. Everybody we invite
will say they'd love to conte, but
they just can't make it' that night."
Bitterly.
Then I have a bright idea. .
•probably . have. to do it when Kim
'is marired, so I might as well
give Hugh a ;send-off.:I explain to
the `Old Battle Axe. It's the. only
way to assemble a crowd in these
troubled. times. She ..agrees, feels
better, even grins, . -

At the bottom of the invitations'
we will have printed: "Refresh-
