"A Special Meaning for Women
BY MARJORIE HOLMES

"A SpeCl0l meaning Tor Women
It's fun to be a woman when:
The furnace argues softly with ITSELF trying to
decide whether or not it's really time to compete with
the sun outside . :.
Children race in excaiming "oh, Mummy. it's
really lovely outdoors whatre you wearing that sweater
for?"
The house is tangy with the bittersweet smell of
chrysanthemums the mantel. and - sprghty the
dining room table-the last spunky marigolds
Your husband and sons crouch before the televsion
watching football game and at the half go out on the
lawn to do bit of passing and scrmmagng, themselves
neighbor up the walk Juggling big bag Of
fragrant apples from their farm launching nosy you all
settle down together to cheer favorte teams
