PAGE 6, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1973, WHITBY FREE PRESS BIRD "S E YE VIE W bi Jin avait Life's Littie Subtieti«es Everybody kîîows about those lit tie subtieties ini life that tell us where we stand with hardly a word spoken. We ail practice them at one time or another anîd most of them are flot inhibited by language or boundary problems. One of ife's littie subtieties is when you walk in the door of your local garage to see how they are making out with the old clunker and you see the mechanie ini front of your car, cap in hand, placing a black wreath on the hood. With one gesture by your mechanic you know whether you should fix the old crock or start lookiïîg for a new one. Or how about the last time you decided to fight a traffie ticket in court? Your lawyer handies the entire case, the evidence is beard, the policeman questioned and the cross - examination is finished. It's time for the judge to make a decision and of course you're wondering what will happen. You catch the attention of your lawyer and raise your eyebrows. He very calmly raises his arm halfway and points his thumb down. Wonder no more, just get out your wallet. Another of life's littie subtleties is when you have just had a complete examination by your doctor. As you're sitting in the examination room getting dressed you say, "Well doc, bow about it? Just as tough as ever eh?" Your doctor neyer really answers the question but he just happens to ask if you have ever consulted a lawyer about making out your wiIl. Have you ever experienced that trapped feeling when you walk into the bank after a three week 4absence and the manager strides over and says how nice it is to see you again. You know if you're îîot over drafted it has be the miracle of the century and you'Ill îever get out of there alive until you settle up the overdraft. Or how about the overdue bill you get in the mail and on the bottom it says, "We know it isjust ain oversight that you baven't sent in a payment in si x years." Who is kidding whom? You didn't pay it and you know it and so did they and if you don't pay they'Il sue the pants off you. One of my favourites is when I take my TV set to Buzzat Ae Elctro-csAdjhe nazes a my st and HAVI LEAGUE 0F WHITBY The Chairman of the Ladies Auxiliary of the Navy League of Canada, Wbitby Branch, Mrs. Collins would like to thank the kind people wbo contributed items and belp at -our Annual Bazaar on July 28th, 1973, the pro- ceeds of wbich will further our efforts to help Navy League Cadets and Sea Cadets After a short summer re- cess the Ladies beld a general meeting on Monday August lOth, 1973 at the 1...F.
