Duke officiating, Interment as in Maitland Odds rt' ends by Elaine Townshend • It has been almost like Christmas for the Townshend clan for the past two months, In eight weeks, the family of ten, including great-grandparents, crams six birthdays plus Mother's Day and Father's Day, Lining up six birthdays in eight weeks, when there are forty-four other weeks in the year, shows a. definite lack of planning, which I had nothing to do with. You probably think I'm gclittg to com- plain about the money involved in gift giving, but that's only part of the problem; die main problem is knowing what to buy. Since Star Wars hit the scene the dilemma of choosing a gift for my seven-year-old nephew has been solved; anything associated with the movie pleases him. I gave him two Star Warsfigures, but I'm still not sure what they are. I follow the rule that along with an impractical present goes a practical one. This year I gave him a shirt, and as he unwrapped it, I waited apprehensively for a disgusted "Ohit'sa shirt!" at the worst or a polite "thank you" at the best. To my amazement, he unfolded the shirtlooked it over and announced, "I like it. Thanks Elaine." Then, instead of throwing it on the floor or at his mother. he neatly folded it and laid it on the table. Either he put on a good act or the kid s growing up. My teen aged niece..is easy to shop for; earrings or rnoney Ikeep her happy. My teen aged nephew is not so easy to shop for. His interests include rock music, horses, welding and mechanics and my knowledge of each field is slim. His present usually contains a "You can exchange it, if it's not what you need" guarantee. When it comes to mothers and grand- mothers, thank goodness for flowers and chocolates, and for fathers and grand fathers, shirts, socks and ties are "old reliables," My Dad always wants a Charley Pride record. I've tried to tell him there are other country singers, but he doesn't listen. Now 1 think he owns every record Charley Pride ever released. My sister and I haunt record bars at Father's Day, birthday time and Christmas • time, looking for the latest 12. One ofus spies a new record; the other buys socks. This year I don't . think Charley has released a record, at least not in this area. Oh well, Dad can take comfort in knowing he will.probably never have to go barefoot. Celebrating six birthdays plus Mother's Day and Father's Day in eight weeks • is hard on wallets, feet and brains but it does save on candles and birthday cakes. Two or three "spe6a1 days" usually satisfy the bunch. ' I'll bet you think I'm just a complainer, 'bin before 'you brand me , Scrooge of the Townshends, let me set the record straight 1 enjoy gift shopping. • I enjoy shopping for that perfect gift for each person, even though I seldom find it. 1, • like v. -rapping the present aftractively and finding a suitable card. I trS-• to consider each person's interests and needs and to choose d gift that is just right for them. It"s worth the trouble. becanse each of them is entitled to their special day; they deserve it.
