EVERYONE IS INVITED TO ATTEND ZURICh1 CITIZENS NEWS tom my window With Christmas in the offing and being such a proud !bother as I am, I decided that the only gift I would truly apprec- iate this year would be a pict- ure of my three children. I'd had one previous picture taken of the trio --that was about five years ago and as you can well imagine, there have been plen- ty of changes in my youngsters since then. Those were the days when my eldest son wore his hair short and neatly combed. It was my youngest child at that time who had ringlets down around his ears! It was a spur of the moment decision to call the photograph- er. It had been something I was putting off and finally, one day, I simply picked up the telephone and made the appointment for the picture sitting. I informed my children later that evening of the date and received no indication of problems ahead. The evening of the sitting was another matter, ..and if I ever have a picture taken again of my three offspring, I will have to be in a totally differ- ent frame of mind than I am right now. About one hour before our date with the photographer, I reminded niy children it was about time to get ready. They wanted to know what they had to get ready for and I confident- ly reiterated that they would be having their picture taken that evening. You would think I had told them they had only one hour to live...and their dismay at that dreadful moment set the tone for the entire ghastly picture - taking episode, My eldest son had a jamming session scheduled for the exact same hour as the photographer was expecting us. flow could ' I really expect hint to be enthus- iastic about going to have a "mug shot" taken when his fut- ure success as a rock 'n' roll star (or whatever they're calling it these days) depended solely upon this evening? Could 1 really think there would be any degree of co-operation when I insisted upon interfering with his career like this? My daughter informed me she was sorry, but she just couldn't go with the boys and I to the photographer's studio that even- ing. This was her evening for CGIT and the theme was mac- rame. One of the local artists was coming in to give instruction on this old and fascinating hobby and there was no chance that my daughter was going to miss out on this valuable exper- ience just to have a family picture taken. Our youngest didn't slake any comment at all. Ile simply ass- umed, I suppose, that this even- ing would be no different than any other. That he would sit and watch his facorite shows on television until his little friend from next door came over for a rousing game of cops and robbers all through the house - from basement to attic. And that's when I lost my temper. That's when I told my The mobility of young people has always been greater than that of their parents, but today it, is vastly increased . by improved transportation and a wanderlust unmatched by previous generations. In the course of a year more than 44% of the population in the 22 to 24 year-old age bracket changes address. BY SHIRLEY J. KELLER children that I didn't care whether their future did depend upon them persuing their own interests this evening. I inform- ed theta (in terms they seemed to comprehend) that this even- ing for one hour they were going to go to the photograph- er's studio and have their pict- ures taken. And what's more, I shouted, they were going to go upstairs with no further delay and change their clothes in preparation for this ultra -happy occasion! The younger two knew they'd been outranked and proceeded mournfully up the stiarway. The eldest remained, defiant and determined that the shirt he was wearing was A -OI: for picture taking. If it was good PAGE 9 enough for school, it was good enough for a picture, he reason- ed. lie then retired to his bed- room to change. It was this gay group, then, that arrived at the photographer's studio - a little late, very dis- gruntled and heartily disliking mothers. It was this same jolly bunch that finally got its rev- enge that evening by refusing to smile or even look pleasant for the photographer. We tried everything. We resorted to such tricks as putting our fingers in our ears and mak- ing funny faces; shaking a baby's rattle in our teeth; pulling tite string on a talking Woody Woodpecker; threating with a hammer. It was no use. The sober, somber silence continued through the whole ordeal and my Christ- mas photographs are as grim as if Amchitka had been a full dis- aster. Will I never learn, I ask- ed myself?
