SUGAR
AND SPICE
by Bill Smiley
Remember the battles?
There's •nothing, like A good,
old-fashioned family fight on
'Saturday night, to relieve the .
built-up tensions of the week,
clear the air, 'and get every. body
squared around for a quiet Sun
.day.: •
..For centuries, this was a tra-
dition in many 'families. But,.
like so many of our other fine
N old customs, this, one has -been:
virtually destroyed by tele -
Vision. •
" Don't get me wrong I don't
mean 'the kind of thing in
which the brutal, drunken hus-.,
bandlurches home, beats up
• his wife and kids, robs the '
sugar bowl and piggy banks of
their penries, and staggers
back to the pub and Pearl. *
This happened, of course, -
And still does. But I mean:lhe
ordinary family fight The fa-
ther,;.. a decent working man,
has gene up -town ' Saturday
afternoon,. with his $1.50
allowance. He's bought 'a- pack
• of fags and had three or four
beers. He's'inildly merry.
' •• His wife has done the' week's
shopping. She has lugged four -
bulging hags oi.grub a blockto
the car. She has slaved to Pre -
Pare a good supper: The baby.
is crying; 'just for the .hell of ,
it. .• The teenage daughter is
whining abOut gaing . to a
dance .with a known hoodlum.
,The 127yearold son is still out:.
, fishing, it's almost dark and
he's probably 'drowned. Ancr,
her feet hurt. And the dinner.
• is ruined. BeCause the old -Man
is late,Twenty minutes late,
already. ' . • .•
• . , Well, there's' a dust-up. 'Pa
, comes in •with a happysmile
and.the'old lady peels the hide
right off him. The boy comeS
in grinning, with two speckled.
, trout, and gets a cuff on the
ear. The daughter whines on
and is sent 'to het!. room. The
baby, no slouch at the game,
yells like a banshee, to get
some attention.
And it's all over, like.a aum-
• nier storin. Pa is ashamed for
cuffing the kid. Ma is ashamed
lor blasting Pa. The boy gets
...,doubles on dessert. Ma and Pa ,
plead, with the girl to go out
with the hood, who really isn't
hood,after all. The baby gets
•a bottle right in the mouth and
`• 'shuts up. • .•
.The kid cleans his. fish. Ma
does the dishes dreamily.. Pa
gdes out and .roots around the
rosebush. Sis flies out, at the
„hoot of a horn. •Baby burps and
smiles in his sleep.
That's the way it was, not
' too . :long ago. But • television,
has wrecked it Nowadays, in-
stead of taking out our, aggres: -
simis on each other, we, huddle
•beftire the Great Soporific • on
Saturday nights, dinner, . bal-
anced on our knees. We' pour • .
all our aggressions into a stiff
body -check or a saloon 'brawl
in a Western.
As • a result, • the fine old ,
family fights' on a Saturday
night has degenerated, into a
querulous quibble about who'
'going to get up and' fetch fa
• beer during the commercial:
However, I am glad ,tosay,
although the faMily fight is
dying, it is not quite extinct.
Theother,day 1 read, ..with
• •growing 'fascination, of -a •
Christmas Eve squabble that
has to . rank , with one of- the
great ones. It took place: last
Dee., 24th, and the legalafter.
math is now in progress. •
As the -newspaper reported
it; this young, fellow admitted
.he drank between 30 and 40
bottles of beer during the day.
That is some beer drinker. '
You try. putting down about
four , gallons of • beer the ' day
before Christmas, -or any other
day, and I guarantee yOu'll
have a belly the shape, and a :
nose the hue, of §—Claus him-
self. Not to mention the beers
coming 'out your. ears. • .
