Page 8, Lucan Shamrock (Exeter T-A) October 28, 1965 a duck-blind, at dawn, he has to drive half the night to get there. Maybe on aSunday or holi-day, in the fall, the city family decides to head out and see some of that beauti-ful autumn foliage. They see it, after driving two hours. And with 50,000 other cars, This is- a time of year when my heart goes out to city-dwellers. It's- a time when- rural pr smalltownliv-ing is immensely superior to that in the concrete Can-yons,, the abominable apart Ments, the sad suburbs of metropolia. In the city, day ends: drearily in the fall, There's. the long, wearying battle home through traffic, or the draughty, crushed, degrad-ing scramble on public transportation.. The city mart arrives home fit tar nothing but: slumping for the evening before the television set, And what greets him? The old lady, wound up like a steel spring because she hasn't seen a soul she knows, all day, there is nothing to look at but that stupid house next door, ex-actly like their own, and the kids have been giving her hell. Ile's stuck with it. For the whole evening. That's why so many city chaps have work-shops in thebasement. It's much simpler to go down cellar and whack off a couple of fingers in the power saw than listen to- Mabel.
Life is- quite different for
the smalltown male. He is home from work in minutes. He surveys the ranch, says, "Must get those storm wind-ows on one of these days," and goes in, to the good fall smells of cold drinks and hot food. His wife saw him at break-fast, again at lunch, has had a good natter with the dame next door, and has been out for two hours, raking leaves with. the kids. She doesn't need him. Instead of drifting off to the basement, the small-town male announces that this is his bowling night, or he has to go to a meet-ing of the Conservation and Slaughter Club, and where's a clean shirt. And that's all there Is to it. While her city counter-part squats in front of Tir, gnawing her nails and wond-ering why she didn't marry good old George, who has a big dairy farm now, the small-town gal collects the kids and goes out to burn leaves. There is nothing more ro-mantic than the back streets of a small-town in the dark
of a fall evening. Piles of
leaves spurt orange flame.
White smoke eddies. Neigh-
bors call out, lean on rakes.
Women, kerchiefed like gyp-
sies, heap the dry leaves
high on the fire. Kids avoid
the subject of bedtime, dash
about the fire like nimble
gnomes,
Or perhaps the whole fam-
11y goes to a fowl supper. What, in city living, can compare to this fine st of rural functions? A crisp fall evening, a drive to the church hall through a Hallowe'en landscape, an appetite like an alligator, and that first wild whiff of turkey and dressing that makes your knees buckle and the juices flow free in your cheeks. But it's on weekends that my pity for the city-dweller runneth over. Not for him the shooting-match on a clear fall Saturday, with its good-humored competition,its easy friendliness. Not for him the quiet stroll down a sunny wood road, shotgun over arm, partridge and woodcock rising like clouds of mosquitoes. It's not that he doesn't live right, or doesn't de-serve these pleasures. It's just that it's physically im-possible to get to them easi-ly. If he wants to crouch in they crawl home in late afternoon, bumper to bump-er, the old man cursing, the kids getting hungrier, the mother growing owlier. Smalltown people can drive for 15 minutes and hit scenery, at least around here, that leaves them breathless.
