Qdth n' Ends gy TOWNSHENP Saafr eteedeeed A total of 17 Explorers graduated Tuesday as part of the festivities of the mother and daughter banquet, at the Exeter United Church, Those receiving the graduation If you see your next-door neigh- bour, who is working in her garden, suddenly drop her hoe and dash into her house, don't be alarmed. It's probably time for her favourite show. Daytime TV is packed with soap operas, and some people become hooked on them. These addicts can't bear to miss one segment, although the story changes little from day to day. Don't snicker, fellas. A feature in a recent TV Guide shot down the myth that soap operas are enjoyed only be women. Many men take their coffee breaks in front of television sets.Thebreaks often stretch into a half-hour or an hour. When a husband returns home from work, he asks, "Well what happened today?" He isn't always referring to the events at home. If he couldn't watch TV that afternoon, he probably means, "What happened in my story?" Millions of people, male and female, are devoted to soap operas. They come from varied walks of life - senior citizens, college students, professors, Couple mark • anniversary Mr. and Mrs. Robert Desjar- dine, of Exeter, celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary on Saturday, May 24. They were joined by their family for a dinner at Hook's Restaurant in London. Later, they were presented with livingroom fur- niture, given to them by their family. They also received flowers, gifts, and con 'ratulations from relatives riends. Mr. & Mrs. Whitney Coates of Exeter, had as their guests over the weekend Mrs. R. H. Doherty, Debbie and Richie of Mt. Clements, Michigan, Wilma Coates, Brad and Tom Coates of Centjcalia and Mr. & Mrs. Joe Dunbar of Guelph on Monday. Mr. & Mrs. Jack Dickins, Edward St., Exeter, and Mr. & Mrs. Hugh Davis, Saintsbury, spent the weekend in Indianapolis and attended the car races. Tree seed is a favourite food of many small mammals. judges, policemen, dentists, house painters, garbage collectors, artists, writers and celebrities, such as Van Cliburn, Dizzy Gillespie and Sammy Davis Jr. Soap operas aren't discussed only by homemakers over a back yard fence. They're also rehashed by mechanics in a garage and by businessmen over a conference table, Why do these people follow the dramatic serials? Invariably, they begin their explanation by saying, "I got hooked." They watched a certain program for a few days; they became involved in the plot, although it wasn't deep, and they identified with the characters. Soon they turned into soap addicts. I once heard two of my neigh- bours discussing an affair bet- ween Jean and Joe, Jean's husband was ready to kick her out, but poor Eve, Joe's wife, still pretended she didn't suspect anything. Meanwhile, young Nancy and John were planning to elope, and the police were hot.on the trail of Henry's killer. For a moment, I thought I had been missing a lot of action in our neighbourhood. Then I realized they were comparing notes on their favourite soap opera. To soap fans, the characters seem real; they love some and hate others. The viewers an- ticipate how each individual will react in a particular situation. In a sense, they share the ups and downs of life with their TV counterparts. The television programers reserve four-and-a-half hours every afternoon for soap operas. Thirteen different shows vie for the interests of millions of viewers. Some of these programs appear too dramatic. The actors and actresses wear pained ex- pressions on their faces, and few smiles are exhibited. "Is life really that bad?" I wonder. Perhaps I have a warped sense of humour, because I find the melodrama rather amusing. Am I hooked on soap operas? No! I watched one faithfully for awhile, but I became bored by its slow pace. Strangely, though, I still keep tabs onlit.‘My friends bring me up-to-date. If I see the show every month or so, I catch the latest marriage, divorce, accident, illness, murder trial or political scandal. In fact, it's time for that old soap opera now. Maybe I'll tune in today to see what's happening. Just this once, mind you - I'm no soap addict! Like our first robin, rhubarb is greeted as a harbinger of spring.
