Edward Coombes, who passed
away 1 year ago, December 2,
1958. '
Friends niay think I have for-
gotten
Because they see me laugh and
smile,
But they little know the sorrow
That my heart hides all the
while.
I mourn for frim in silence,
No eyes can see me weep,
But many a silent tear is shed
While others are asleep.
You are not forgotten, Pop,
Nor ever will you be,
As long as life and memory last,
I will remember thee.
—Ever remembered and sadly
missed by his daughter-in-law,
Margaret Coomber- 26'"

Of one we loved and can never
forget,
Her loving senile and happy face
is a memory we can't replace.
Sad was our parting, no one can

Of our sorrow, .when the blow

Sugar
AND
Spice
Dispensed by BILL SMILEY
Dld you. know that in the U.S.,
the teenage population has a
buying power of $80 million, a
year? A chap frons the .States
told me that the other day, and
I was suitably startled. •Or may-
be is was $8 million a day. it
doesn't matter.
* * *
I presume the sane 'is true in
Canada, proportionately, Let's
say there are four million teen-
agers in Canada. A conservative
estimate of their direct spend-
ing would he an average of $2 a
week, each. That's $8 million
a week, $416 minion a year,
* 1•
Add to that their indirect
.spending, that is, the money
spent by their parents on clothes
and ears for them, foods and
fads for thein, schooling and
spoiling for them, and they arc
probably the most expensive
and economically influential seg-
ment of society ever spawned,
• * *
Rather a shocker, isn't it? It
was not always thus. Only in
the past generation has the age
group between 12 and. 20 fasten-
ed on the body of society with a
vampire's tooth, and inhaled
with gusto. Never before in his-
tory have commerce and cul-
ture danced attendance on the
maudlin mind of the teens.
• *
I'm not complaining, or saying
it's all wrong. I'in merely ob-
serving, Nor do I blame it on
the kids. Start feeding a new
pup choice morsels from your
table, even though you know it's
wrong. Pretty soon he's clawing
at your leg if you're not handing
it down fast enough. Next thing
you know, he's a grown. dog, is
sitting at the table with a bib
below his jowls, and gets snarly
if you give him the half of your
steak that has the gristle in it.
• * *
This adulation of the ado-
lescent was non-existent wi'.en l
was one. And don't give me that
pap about today's teenagers be-
ing all mixed up and confused.
People of that age have always
been confused and mixed up.
The difference was that we did-
n't know how to take advantage
of it, and we didn't have enough
money for anybody to be both-
ered with us.
* • *
Perhaps it is money that has
supplied the motive power for
the cult of the teen, which has
smothered society, in the past
decade, with something that has
all the grace, charm and vitality
of a well -mouthed marshmallow.
* * *
It began in the 1940's, when
the war -time and post-war boom
produced easy money, the like
of which honest plugging people
had never seen. F'arents, de-
