The increasing price of cards and the rising postal rates don't seem to be diminishing the popUlarity of greetings by mail. If you study the displays in the storda, you'll find a card for almost every occasion. Christmas has -traditionally been the largest holiday seller, but Easter, Valentine and St. Patrick's Day cards are groWing in popularity. Some cards commemorate a special event in a person's life, such as a wedding or an ▪ anniversary, the birth, of a baby, a graduation or a confirmation. Others announce, ."You're Invited," "A Gift For You" or "Thank Yoe, and some contain expressions of sympathy. Within' the realm of get well cards, the thoughts vary. Some say "Sorry About Your Accident" or "Sorry About Your Illness," .while others conclude "Glad You're Better." One must be careful not send the latter too soon,. "To Cheet You," some' cards feature, pleasant pictures on the front cover; others , forsake pictures,' favour of "snappy stories to be read undercover." Doctors and nurses often • take merciless ribbing in such compositions. Recently I noticed a get well card that contained a list entitled "What This Ain't," "It ain't a bowl of nice hot soup or a penicillin shot; it ain't a jar of aspirin or a flower in a• pot; it ain't a brand-new wonder drug or pillow fo your head; it's just a wish you'll soon get well and hop right out of bed." The inside page showed a rabbit bouncing out of bed. When it comes to birthdays, no one should feel slighted. Every member of the family has a verse written especially for him or her - husband, wife, dad, mom, son, daughter, grandfather, grandmother, grandson, grand- daughter, uncle, aunt, nephew, niece, and roust'. Even, the in -laws are included, and friends u oaurf,eat Wtfroirtrsgeotten' Hhave a heyday with birthday cards. This year I received a card, with a picture of a grubby , bearded fellow scrubbing in a-bathtub filled with soap lather. On the outside, the card chided, "Once a year, whether you like it• or not" and on the inside, "You have to have a birthday." Another card showed two fingers hopping across a printed page, and the caption read: "While looking for a gift for your birthday, I let my fingers do the walking. But I tripped over 'Foreign sports cars" and landed in 'fertilizer.' What is the purpose of greeting cardsJ and why are they so ,pepular? SSirte e intended to. cheerla .persen-wheik.feek 49:10y: even bring chuckles. Others co gratfilate • someone .on an achievement or a special', ,event, and some say "Thank You." Other cards are sent on no special occasion, and their message is simple: "Thinking of You." Most greeting cards express an emotion that the sender finds difficult to put into words. The following is an example of such a verse: There is ,no greater blessing than an ,understanding friend. One who's there in times of trouble and on whom we can depend. A -friend who shares the happy moments and brightens Cloudy days. One who's slow to criticize but quick to offer praise. There is no greater blessing than a friend who's loyal and' true - The very special kind of friend that I have found in you!
