PAGE 2-PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, MARCH 23, 1973 Grandma Sez • • • HEAD COMEDY CAST - -That pocketbook is really driving me cnu>." exhorts Barney Cashman. In me memory, rings th' words. "Familiarity breeds contempt." when I read, an' hear o' th' disrespect o' th' young, toward? their seniors, parents, teachers, employers, ar." ever'thin' that should require a certain attitude o" regard Some years ago. me ears wuz shocked at bein' addressed by me giver, name, by a salesman, on th' teliphone. Th' familiarity, that's a way o' life, these days, wuz jist a bein' practiced, an" little by little, th' respect o' person fer t'other's fast disappeared, in many instances I wuz brought up t' use th' title due a person, outside o' me own age bracket. As long as I wuz employed. I wuz honored by me title o" "Miss." an' "Mrs." We ne'er thought \o callin' our teachers by any | than their surname, along wk the proper title, no matter hem young they were When a young woman reached the age o' fs. she wuz "Miss."' A young man earned th' title o' "Mr." on reachin' th' age o' 21. Up t' that time he wuz addressed by his surname r given name. No youngun deserves th' title o' an adult until they're considered o' age In me own thinkm' there ain't a youngster I c'n recall t' mind, that conducts himself, 'r herself in an adult manner, that 's under th' age o' 18 re 21. girl, r boy. respectively. T consider a person an adult, jist cause th' privilege o' votin' wuz lowered, seems ridiculous. An adult s able t' pervide fer himself, an" young folk, graduatin' from high school, ha been pervided for. all their lives, an suddenly they get that cbpioma. an' they're supposed t be a full-blown rose, bud th' bud s jist beginnin" t' show what kind o' flower 11 be th' bloom. * Now. comes th' time fer the youngun t' expect fer his adult­ hood There wuz a lot o' good, in th' old practice o' mediocrity in th practice o' familiarity. Society attempted t' hold high standards, an'the use o' the proper title, at th' proper time, when he r she came o' age, gave the youngster a feelin' o' proud accomplishment. A new dignity wuz bom. an' a young man went inter th' world, a feelin' like a man. Young women were ad­ dressed by would-be suitors, in a manner t' uphold a dignity in their bearin'. an' it may be laughed at his day. but there wuz a reason fer it all. Familiarity breeds all kind o' undesirable conditions. Grandma Radtke Involving I presented on Fridavs, Saturdays and Sunday, March 30. 31. April 1, S and 7 at the McHenry Country dab.
