I Tuaa Jan MO a IB December a trying time tiring itll so daag SUDDEN There you are tot- taring along a day at lime thinking its still fail mast get the snow ttrcs and storms on one of these fine Saturdays and throw some firewood into the cellar and get some boots and replace the gloves you lost last March Christmas is away off there And then bang you look out one morn ing and there s December to all its a bluer east wind driving snow and a cold chin settles in the very bones of your soul Winter wind as sharp as a witchs tooth sneaks in around doors and windows Ones wife complains of the terrible draught from under the basement door You Investigate and find that one of the basement windows has been blown In and has smashed the woodpile You clamber up over the wood knocking pieces off shins and knuckles and Jam some cardboard in the gap Creep cautiously outside and nearly bust your bum Theres tee under that thar snow Make it to the garage and find that your car doors are all frozen solid shut Beat them with your bare fists until the latter are bleeding and your car is full of dents Finally get them open with a bucket of hot water and a barrel of hotter language Slither and grease your way to work arriving in a foul mood and with bare bands crippled into claws bootless feet cold as a witchs other appendage Come out of work to go home and find a halfinch of frozen rain and snow covering your car and no sign of you scraper and another deep dent where some idiot slid into your car door on the parking lot Icouldgoonandon but its only rubbing salt in the wounds of the average Canadian Get home from work and find that the fur is on the blink and the repairman Is tied up for the next two days And your wife is also fit be tied up over your Surely there is some way around this of December Is there not some farseeing politician if that Is not a cootrad in terms who would introduce a bill to provide for an extra month between lets say November and December 5th I wouldnt care what he called it It could be referring to your fastdying hope that there wouldnt be a winter this year Or Last Call or Final Warning or Shes Acomin Anything that gave us a good Jolt It would be a good thing for merchants They could have special sales of gloves and boots and snow tires and ear muffs and caulking guns and weather strip ping and antifreeze and nose warmers before plunging into their preQiristmas sales which are promptly replaced by their January sales It would be great for the Post Office which could start warning us In June that all Christmas mail must be posted by the first day of if we wanted it delivered before the following June It would make a nice talking point for all those deserter and traitors and rich people who go south every year Instead of smirking Oh were not going south until Boxing Day Hate to miss an oldfashioned Canadian Christmas they could really shove It to us by learing Yes we thought wed wait this year until the day of you know Avoid the and vulgarity of the holiday ruth If nothing else it would gin us a break from the massive nauseating volume of Chnstmas advertising which begins toward he end of October and continues remor selessly right into Christmas Day Bestofalliwrhapsitwouldglvedummies like me a chance to avoid looking like such a dummy who flourish during a sunny November such as we had this year would have no more excuses All their wives would have to do point to the calendar and say BUI do you realize Its only three days untU it time you did your chores In fact if that fearless politician who is going to introduce the BUI In the house wants some advice here Is a codicil tor him Somewhere in the BUI should be the warning in bold type will be Prosecuted why not They prosecute you for everything else If such a month were added to the cal endarmaybe we could start it with Grey Cup Day people like me wouldnt thinking that Christmas is weeks away Instead on the last day of Lastember with alt their winter chores in hand theyd know that Christmas was practically on top of them like a big old horse blanket and theyd leap into the proper spirit lining up a Christmas tree laying In their tuning up their pipes for the carols As it is now we know that Christmas is likeamiragc Its way off ihere somewhere and no need to panic Then with that startl ing Suddeness its December all the Christmas trees have been bought the only remaining turkeys look like vultures and the liquor store is bedlam Whos for a Last em be r A GIFT FOR YOU A threeday after Christmas Party with savings 3 DAYS ONLY UNTIL
