No matter how busy the sum-
mner has been, each year the
wildly accelerated pace of life
in autumn comes as a jolt. One
is not eased, but hurled, back
into the rat -race.
First shock, akin to diving
off an ice -floe in the vicinity of
Greenland, is the re -opening of
school. It's exciting for the
kids, exhausting for parents,
and pure choas for the teacher.
One day it's Labor Day.
Calm, competent, relaxed, the
teacher potters about the long,
silent, fresh -waxed halls of the
school, picking up his mail and
planning an afternoon round of
golf.
The next day, he is just an-
other ant in an anthill. He is
buffeted in the halls by a mael-
strom •of students. He fran-
tically makes class lists sells
padlocks, fills out forms, He
directs weeping grade-niners
who are lost, or can't remem-
ber the combination of their
lockers. He comforts near -
weeping new teachers who
don't know what to do, nor why,
nor where, nor when.
Just to add to the general jol-

lity this fall at our school, we
went on a double shift. Our
team commences classes at 8
a.m. This means hitting the
deck at 6:30 or earlier. Pull a
teenager out of bed at 6:30 and
you have a surly teenager. Pull
a teacher out of bed ditto and
you have a •ditto teacher. It's
bad enough these fine autumn
mornings, but there'll be mur-
der done by mid -winter.
But school is only part of au-
tumn's rude awakening. There
is the despair that strikes when
you read a list of the "new"
television shows and discover
that not •a single tree or shrub
has been planted in the waste-
land of last year's TV,
Bilis sprout like thistles in
autumn. There's the remains of
last winter's fuel bill, with
"P LE A S E " typed in red.
There's the notice of the mort-
gage payment. Where's the one,
entitled "Last warning", from
the guy who sodded the bald
spot on your lawn last June.
There's the first instalment of
music lessons. There's the note
from your friendly bank man-
ager.
And this fall the thistles are
longer and sharper than ever
around our place, with a kid
heading for university. We fig-
ured out that he will need ap-
proximately .as much money
this year as my old man used to
raise a family of five on. Hugh's
idea of helping out with fi-
nances was to take off in mid-
September with my best jacket,
all my sox without holes, and
every shirt of mine without
frayed cuffs—both of them.
Meetings galore. There's the
notice of the curling club meet-
ing, at which "We will discuss
the advisability of raising the
fees". They were raised. There's

board for the first fall meeting,
at which the property commit-
tee (guess who's chairman) will
present its report. There's a
reminder that the speech I of-
fered to make, fast June, will
be presented in 10 days. There's
the memo about the staff meet-
ing at 7 a.m., There's the ad-
vise that my resignation as
teacher of the Bible class has
been ignored, and classes com-
mence on Sunday.
In between, the lawn has
grown four inches, the hedge
looks like a beatnik and the
leaves are falling. The squirrels
are back in the attic, the gar-
age is still half -painted, and
my daughter, in a month at
camp, has busted out of all her
clothes.
Oh well, "Life is the life", as
Kim once remarked sagely, age
six. There have been a couple
of bright spots. I have a new
English teacher on my crew
who would have given Cleopa.
