THE ANNUAL SUCKER PLAY
Tranquillity is the most eva-
sive thing in the world. At
least, it is if you have a family.
There must be a few rich, hap-
py bachelors who can put their
feet up, read a ,book and take a
trip without becoming involved
in several hundred irritations.
Every spring I go through
the same routine, and I can't
understand why an intelligent
man can be so stupid .and suck-
ered annually. All it proves to
me is that experience teaches
you nothing, contrary to the old
saw.
Each year, May beckons like
a beautiful maiden clad in the
flimsiest of draperies. Every
year I pursue her, panting (or
puffing). And each year she
turns out to be an old bat
garbed in potato sacks, with a
wart on her nose, , falsies, and
bad breath.
The worst of the winter's
grind is over. And 1 look for
green leaves and a warm
breeze, for a soft rain and a
warm sun, for a little cool fish-
ing and some hot golf, a little
puttering in the yard. Noth-
ing •wild, colorful or exotic.
Just a touch of tranquillity. And
every May it eludes me with
the ease an eel would elude an
elephant.
Mostly, it's the Old Lady's
fault. Like many women, she
begins to see all that shabbi-
ness, in the yellow spring sun-
light, and acts accordingly. For
a solid month.., I've been look-
ing at drapery material, wall-
paper and chesterfield cover-
ing. Saturday night, I'd had
enough. I told her flatly that I
didn't care if she decorated the
whole house in pink and purple,

We invite you to worship
with ns.l
but to include me out.
Then I get a one-hour lec-
ture, citing various neighbors
and brothers-in-law, on my
short -comings as a husband. So
I finally tell her which of the
materials I detest. And then
she tells me what rotten •taste
I have.
And I bridle. Yes, I literally
bridle. It's quite a trick. I tell
her I dike the chesterfield as it
is. We've only had. it 16 years.
I ask her what's wrong with
the drapes we have? I refuse
to admit the rug needs clean-
ing. And then, as they say, the
fat is in the fire, sputtering
in all directions and burning
painfully when it hits.
And I stomp out into the
backyard, quivering with rage,
and fear, and glare at the "com-
post heap"; a pile of old leaves
and stones I didn't get raked
last fall. And she stomps right
after me and glares at me.
And I stomp right in again and
blurt defiantly, "Well, have it
your own way, dear."
That's the only way to settle
that. And I thought everything
was cleared up and I might get
a smidgeon of tranquillity.
What a hope. Our prodigal
turned up the next day, and we
had to kill a roast of beef. And
1 was expected to take him
aside and have a "good talk"
with him and "straighten him
out". .
He was tanned and fit, with
a beard that makes him look
like a minor prophet. Had just
had a pleasant six weeks, bum-
ming around Mexico and the
southern states. Worked for
his keep, here and there, from
selling fruit in a market to be-
ing a servant for a wealthy
couple, He's 19.
Had broken a finger, Indian
wrestling on the beach •at Aca-
pulco. A Mexican doctor set it,
badly, and it has to be rebroken
and reset.
How do you have a "good,
straight talk" with a kid who
just grins, listens to the blast,
and says, politely, "Dad, I have
all my life to go to college and
settle down to a job and raise
a family. What's the rush?"
What, 'indeed?
It offends my puritan up-
bringing, the whole protestant
ethic of hard work, and the
capitalist -materialist outlook of
our society. But I can't help a
sneaking agreement with him.
I've •been hacking away for
20 years, and have wound up
with a couple of kookie kids, a
kookie wife, a car owned by
the bank, a good-sized mort-
gage and a job that is draining
my life away, drop by drop.
What, indeed, is the rush?
Oh, well. Now the family has
decided we're going to Expo,
and there goes the last hope of
a modicum of tranquillity. And
what the heck! Tranquillity is
for old guys. And I ain't an
old guy, he said shakily.
There's always next spring.

Mr. and Mrs, Pete Geoffrey
accompanied by Mr. and Mrs,
Ed Corriveau motored to Lon-
don on Thursday last on a busi-
ness trip. They also visited
relatives in that city.
Mrs. Noel Laporte, •of the
Drysdale district, returned to
her home after spending some
time recuperating after an op-
eration.
Mr, and Mrs, Venni Den-
omme and sons, of Elmwood,
were Sunday last visitors at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Garfield
Denomme. The former's moth-
er accompanied 'them for the
afternoon and evening.
Yours truly and Mrs. Du-
charme were Monday last visi-
tors with Mrs. Theresa Hart-
man. They also met Mrs. Remi
Denomme, an old-time resident
of this highway.
The past week -end was not
a national or other .holiday but
the traffic on this Blue Water
Highway we believe surpassed
any other week -end. It would
seem that people are living for
today and leave the worries of

a future day care for itself,
Well, perhaps i't's the only
way to get by in life for we are
living only one day at a time
and since we are, there are not
any tomorrows. We believe it
will continue to be throughout,
for those laboring on salary or
hourly pay. They, perhaps, re-
ceive more for their service and
can well afford 'to break away
from their place of labor and
enjoy a week -end outing, and
again they are laying aside the
cause in life as perhaps their
foreparents did.
The Blue Water Highway is
interesting to travel on; scen-
eries along its wayside are
beautiful especially at this time
of year when farmers' seeding
is pushing its way out of its
seed bed with a healthy green
color, which shows prosperity.
Also along the way can be seen
trees •and shrubs, which had
during the late past fall and
winter months, lost their vigor
and now with favorable spring
weather have began to revive

Crushed, Tidbits, Slices -20 Oz.
Flowers along the way are
also attracting the motorist and
the new scent from the trees,
shrubs and flowers are much
much enjoyed by those who
travel the highway on week-
ends or other times, Also when
they are about to cross a water
stream they stop the vehicle to
look in the surroundings and
after dark not much can be
seen but they can hear the
dripping of water drops falling
from its level to some part of
the stream below, causing a
sound which can be heard for
some distance. To the motor-
ist that is impressive.
Along the highway there are
many places to stop to rest,
relax and to lunch and take re-
freshments. Speaking of our
nearby midst we refer to St.
Joseph where the Burgess fam-
ily opened a business place such
as a grocery store and restaur-
ant, to meet the public needs.
In business only a few years,
their business has increased so
that outside help is many times
needed to serve well the public.
Much of that prosperity to the
Burgess management is due to
their courtesy and generosity
when meeting customers.
