LIMITED • 7- 450 Main Street Exeter Phone 285-0660 Our own surveys indicate that quite a few people think an Oldsmobile is out of their reach. They think it costs a lot more than it really does. Result? Many people buy an ordinary car and end up with a lot less car and value for their money, But why settle for the ordi- nary when you can step up, so easily, to an Olds and all the value that an Olds represents. Great engineering. Fine per- formance. Exceptional com- fort. Solid quality that's an It's spring! Feel it! Smell it! See it! Standing in a friend's garden this weekend surrounded by rows and rows of blazing tulips and sunkissed daffodils, my winter starved soul drank in the earth-awakening beauty that only this season can bring, The willows tossing their yellow branches in time to the tunes of the singing in their branches, take on the grace of ballet dancers. The forsythia and japonica all herald the news. It's here . . . SPRING. Not even the fact the grass needs cutting can dim my Spirits. Long ago, the psalmist felt the same magic and sang about it, "Thou renewest the face of the earth". * * * But, despite the wonder of it all, there is a rather unpleasant side of this season of renewal. The psalmist, apparently, did not experience it. At least, he gives no hint that while the face of the earth was being renewed his own little domain suddenly became chaotic while his wife, stricken with a spring time frenzy, took up rugs, pulled down curtains, shone windows, washed walls and cupboards, ridded out the basement and in general, caused an upheaval like Hurricane Hazel on the loose again. He apparently didn't stiffer a short tempered spouse who poured all her energies into the cleaning of her nest, and tossed him skimpy meals on a T. V. tray. Nor did the psalmist have to resign himself, as do most husbands, that there is just no decent way he can sneak away until the whole blasted thing was over. Regardless of husbands' grumblings and discomfort, housewives' stretched and sore muscles and broken finger nails, how sweet it is when house cleaning is finished and each room shines and sparkles like a dew-studded morning. The greatest thing, next to the renewal of the earth, is the spring time renewal of our homes. * And how much easier it is to clear out a dirty house than it is to clean out a soiled mind and spirit. Scraping and scrubbing off the piled up wax from the kitchen floor is nothing to washing away the unforgiveness we harbour against someone. It's child's play to brush the dust from the corners of the ceiling compared to sweeping out resentments, jealousies and selfishness from the dark corners of our souls. The trash and rubbish in the basement is thrown out with gay abandon, but we like to hang on to other ugly and useless things, like old fears, hurt feelings and greediness. We'll spend hours carefully mending a hole in the upholstery, but we often won't take a minute to make an honest attempt to mend a broken friendship. Housewives will polish their windows until their arms and shoulders ache so the light of the sun may stream in without being marred by streaked and dirty panes. But, most of us think very little about the kind of light we are showing to the world through our inner windows. We don't seem to care whether it is a clear, white light or whether it is hindered with grime and dirt. A light is a guide. When a plane is landing at night it is guided in by lines of li..-chts so it can come in safely. We all know how difficult it is to see our way around when the lights go off in a city or town. The world needs 'lights' to make the way clear to others „ . or to be an example, if you wish. It desperately needs people who are prepared to be the foci of goodness, People who are not afraid to rise to their, feet over a questionable issue and say, "I will not be a party to that." Society needs guiding lights who will fearlessly speak out against moraldecay,the plight of starvation, and all injustices in the world, which seem to be bound down in the dreadful complexities of 'the system'. The earth sparkles with its renewal; our houses gleam from their renewal, and if we will renew ourselves, we, too, should take on a shine and brilliance that cheers the world. I'm tired of listening to morose, pessimistic people. There's no doubt about it, our planet is beset with many evils and problems, but sinking into a mire of gloom is no way to help it, Let's try to give off a little sparkle, a little shine, a little cheer and goodwill to those around us. Often that's hard. It's easy to scour out our houses with a broom and a mop , . but cleaning out the cubbyholes of our minds and spirits really hurts. But, remember, the Psalmist who exclaimed, "Thou renewest the face of the earth," also prayed, "Create in me a clean heart and renew a right spirit within me." TRM UTE TO MOTHER A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials, heavy and sudden fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.
