ZURICH GREATER CHRISTMAS DAYS SUGAR and SPICE uum By Bill Smiley IM My daughter is furious with me again. She's at that age, 14, when daughters have very little difficulty in becoming enraged with their fathers. This occurs, of course, only on days when they're not sore as a boil at their mothers. She has good reason s, of course. She claims I'm crabby in the morning and grouchy at night. This is because I'm al- ways hollering up the stairs to tell her to get .a move one, in the morning, and hollering up the stairs telling her to get her light off, at night. She calls me an old crock when I refuse to play badmin- ton with her, because of bur- sitis. And when I do play, and beat the can off her, she is like all women. She accuses me of cheating, or playing like a big bully. She goes livid with rage when I try to help her through some situation I know will be tough. "What do you think I am, Dad, a child?" But she grows pur- ple with passion when I remind her that she's not an infant and can just go on looking for her lost gym suit and I don't care if her PT teacher does kill her and she can play basketball in her underwear, for all I care. She boils with bellicosity when she wants help with her homework and I remind her that she thinks I'rn stupid and she'd better do it herself. Zurich Merchants Join Citizens News In Consumer Salute For Christmas This week the merchants of Zurich will honour the consum- ers of this trade territory with an asortment of the greatest values ever seen in any shopp- ing centre. See the "Greater Christmas Days" pages of this edition of the Zurich Citizens News for details. Friendly Community Sales receipts and bank de- posits show that Zurich is soar- ing ahead as a regional shopp- ing centre. There are many contributing factors to this con- tinous growth. Zurich has for years been referred to as a friendly community. Progres- ive merchants, courteous sales- people an understanding a n d friendly, efficent city govern- ment and a citizenry of char- acter are the greatest assets any community can have. Zur- ich has all these assets. Confident Future Zurich is an industrious com- munity. It's civic leaders are always looking for new indust- ries that will bring gainful em- ployment and additional em- ployment revenue for o u r people.

'Of OR T. -4f' When 1 play the heavy father, moralistic a n d conventional, she calls me, in disgust, an "old poke". When I get gay and kick up my heels and become the life of the party, she is miffed and makes cracks about my lack of dignity. In fact, about the only time we seen to be on our old basis of true buddies is when she's trying to wheedle some money. Then her true sweetness and my inn at e generosity shine through and we get along beau- tifully. Until I remind her that she's to be in at 11 p.m., even if it is Friday night. ' Oh, well, that's about stan- dard these days, for •a healthy father - daughter relationship. But this week she went off like a skyrocket I decided to use a portrait of Kim in my English teaching. It was painted, and extremely well done, by Jean Hay, whose daughter Princess and Kim were bosom pals then, about age nine. I took the painting to school, held it up for three minutes for the class, then told the students to describe the impression it made on them. Results were interesting. Quote: "He wasn't very old, perhaps about 10, but the eyes were those of an old, tired man. An overworked man." Quote: "I think that this child is a bedraggled orphan, wishing for 'parents to love and care for him." Quote: "Tears of pity and forlorness could almost be seen dripping down the boy's musty cheeks." Quote: "It is a picture that leaves the viewer with a feeling of deep concern." Quote: "His large, sad eyes, which dominated his thin, dirty little face, told his story better than a thousand words." Quote: "His ears drooped like a dog's, when it knows it has done something wrong and will be punished." Quote: "I got the impression that he was very sad and lone- ly, perhaps an orphan who had gone without food for some time." Just a sample. Titles were such as: The Boy; The Lost Orphan. One Imaginative lad called it The Last Jew and sug- gested the child was waiting to go off to the gas ovens. What young lady of 14, who is dabbling with lipstick, wears a brassiere, and has been out on a date, wants her name bandied about the school as: an old, tired man; an orphan; a sad dog; a dirty -face; a rusty - cheeks. And worst of all, a boy. Ninety per cent of thenin thought she was •a boy, Maybe she had some excuse, after all, for coming home from school, those brown eyes like boiling chocolate, with "DAD! 1 could murder you!"
