Well, Irn back to normal
Last week I wrote a coitnn.

down mentally. It was full of
joy and good spirits, lookfng
on the' bright side; and reveal.'
ing silver linings.
It's a great relief to me,. and
'it must be to you, to go back to
normal. Last week- was a brief
mental abberration. This week,
UM back. to my old .sane, snar-
ly, misanthi•opic •self: the man
my wife calls "Old Stonefacei."
What I propose to do- today
is act as 'your alter -ego, the
brooding, dark self that is hid-
den behind your bright, sunny
exterior. Em going to let...you
take out your aggressions, vi-
cariously, through mine.
111 list what I despise and
detestin our society. 'SenW in
your own special b6cfs,
we'll keep the column going
for months. Everybody hates
something.
There is no particular. order
to these items. My venom' ex-
tends with equal.. virulence to
each.
First. Non • returnable, bot-
tles. I know. The 01C1 DUOS v ere
bad enougoh, cluttering up
shelves and basement floors
until you -had a car load. It was
a.haliday's work to take thein
back to the store and hale
over them, because the storo
said the Y didn't sell this brand
or tictot.,
But you could 'get rid of
them. Andfor kids, they \\ere,
in. many instances, their sole
source of income. Many a Sat-
urday I spent as a boy, search-
ing -ditches for miles, and com-
ing home with 32 cents for a
day's .work.
The non -returnable bottle is
about as easy to get rid of as
chronic arthritis. I demand
that their manufacturers give
every customer, free'', a plastic
bucket, filled with a solution
which will 'Instantly dissolve
the cursed things when -they're
dropped into it. -
.The, same goes for cans that
.hold drinks, whether beer or
pop. In ten years, you won't be
able to step on a piece of
nature south. of the Arctic,Cir-
cle withont.twisting your anile
On an empty beer -can:,
Next. Long-distance dial tele-
phone calls. A few years ago,.
you gave your nuMber' to good
old operator, and within a rea-
sonable time, you got your par-
ty, or didn't.
On the do-it-yourself plan,
ith a string of digits as long
as your leg, anything can hap-
pen. A friend of mine called
his son in Montreal the other
night. He didn't have his
glasses on, and wound up tails-
ing to the secretary. of the -
Sheep Breeders' Association in
Auckland, New Zealand.
How about zippers? Great
invention, but it -should have
been strangled at birth. What
ever happened to the good old
button? Every time I- tangle
with a zipper, whether it's on
my galoshes or my fly, there is
a moment of sheer, cold appre-
hensiOn. Often it's justified
"and there 1 am with my galosh-
es flopping around like a pair
of drunken crows.
Politicians. Not all of them.
Only those who promise to
hold the line on expenses.
while providing better serv-
ices. And then do the opposite.
Taxes. The rich are hit hard,
hut have enough left to avoid
star.\ ation. The poor pay none,
or very little. It's the middle-
income bird who gets it where
it hurts. One of these days, I'm
off to Bermuda, where "taxes"
is a dirty word..
Social slavery. We know that
as individuals, we have free
will. But wee are strangled with
so many regulations and tradi-
tions and pressure's that our
free will becomes a broken -
winged bird in a cage tasteful-
ly decorated with red:tape and
ridiculosity.
Love. If there's anything
that turns my stomach, it is
people whopreachlove„ in.
*eluding hippies, and spend
most of their time.telling you
about all the people and things
they hate.
Hate. -How can people hate
other people? Yet they. do. I
hate but I can't remember ever
hating a person in my life.
Lots of people are despicable,
contemptible, malicious .or just.
plain • boring. But you don't
hate them. You pity, them. I
1-lte'hate, and there's lots of it
around.
O.K., chaps. It's your turn.
Let's hear from you. This is

artistry in community concert
By Lorne Dotterer,
,‘ The Goderich Community
Concert Association presented
Saramae Endich, soprano, at the
GDCI ' auditorium, Tuesday,
evening, March 4.
In the first' part of her
program, .Miss Endich showed
great artistry. Her voice had an
• excellent quality on the highs
and in the mezzo -forte range of
dynamics. When she came to the
minor section of Bach's "If
Thou Be Neal," there was a
darkening of the tone which
showed superior technique. This
technique' was also shown in
Mozart's "Alleluja" from the
"ExcultateJubilate." Here could
be heard a range in dynamics

Miss Endich.
Richard Foster, her
accompanist, did an excellent
job. He could have used more
volume in the support of Miss.
Endich's highs and, was
rhythmically strict. However, it
was extremely pleasant - to be
able to hear the singer. Mr.
Foster really knows his job and
performed it well.

We feel that Miss Endich
really flowered in the Puccini.
"Un Bel Di," from "Madame
Butf6rfly," received . a very
thoughtful interpretation. The
recitative style sections, which
are usually rather flat and
uninteresting, were made vital
by this performer. "Musetta's
Waltz,VaAthe final encore, from
Pticcini's'98 Boheme" was the
highlight of the evening.
