/ This • payehological .. crisis
comes to all of as, every two
or three years. It bears looking
at, as a manifestation of the
tremendous pressures '‘‘T, have
to cope with, And our grand-
fathers didn't.
• What a snap they had. They
'went to a reputable horse -
dealer and bought, a horse. No
sweat.. They didn't even have
to make the agonizing decision'
of whether to buy a brand hew
one or a late -Model used.
• There was no such thing as a
new horse.
What's more, they enjoyed
it. • There was some good-
natured dickering which usual-
ly ended with both parties
thinking they had got the bet-
ter of •the dear Grampa chuck-
led as he drove his lively geld-
ing home, thinking of how
much trade-in allowance he'd
received for Old Min, the
mare, who hadn't much mile-
age -left in hen And the dealer
chucked as he thought of the
gelding steadily going blind,
and the fact that the preacher,
who knew nothing about
horses, was -looking for a quiet
• mare like Old Min.
My point is that it was not
the wrenching, exhaustitig
• thing that a modern car deal
is. The,.. average layman then
knew , whether a horse was
sound He took a 'look at the
• teeth, felt here arid
there, bitched it up for a trial
spin, and made his deal.
There 'Was only so much that
could. be wrong with a horse.
•He could be blind, or spavined,
or Wirid-broken. But he didn't
• rust, there was no chance of
his brakes grabbing; his trans-
• mission was automatically au-
tomatic, and he didn't cost
$1500 a year forlife
• And that's one of the rea- -
• sons I buy a car exactly the
• way Grampa used to buy a
horse. I look at its teeth. That
• is, L lift hood JO imake sure
