Have you noticed that
Christmas S seems to come
earlier each year?
When / was a boy, hardly
anyone did anything much
about Christmas until about
the first week Of December
But over the years more and
more people have been doing
their shopping e arlier and
earlier-and now anyone who
waits until after Thanksgiving
to get started is likely to be
considered a laggard.
This unpleasant fact of
modern life was impressed on
me last week when a friend
inquired, Have you done
your c hris t m a S shopping
YETI"
Haven't even given it a
thought, i" Ireplied d. "How
about your"
I'd thought he was Just
making conversation. But his
answer revealed his true pur-
pose: to show me how much
more intelligent and efficient
he was than /.
81 did all my shopping last
August" he boosted. 1--WE
even addressed all my cards.
II bet you haven't even
bought yours?
White Lie
He made me feel so stupid
and inefficient that found
myself fibbing. "I've stopped
sending cards." l said. SIT
got to be too much Of a head
ache" What l meant was
that l was then and there
scratching his name from my
list.
Not that / wouldn't like to
be as efficient as my erst-
while friend. But the one
time l took time by the forel-
Ock, as the saying is, and got
my Christmas cards ready
early, the results were disas-
trous.
/ may as well tell the whole
truth, embarrassing as it is:
A too-hasty look at the calen-
dar left me with the impress
sion that it was December IA.
So I rushed out and bought a
supply of cards and postage
stamps and sat up until 2:O5
am, signing, addressing and
licking.
Memory Fails
The reason l still remem-
Der the exact time is lhat,
just as l was stamping the
last of 2O5 envelopes, my wife
sn Ape d off the television,
came into the dining room
and announced: "The late
show was longer than usual
tonight. It's five after two"
Then, noticing the S several
piles of cards on the table:
"Why the rush? It's only the
fourteenth Of November. If
you mail those cards now, by
the time Christmas comes,
people will have forgotten
they received them"

who was working at the mo-
tel where we st I'VE d. My
mother looked him over and
okayed a movie date. We said
we would be back by 1880.
We stopped for a snack after
the movie and were only 40
minutes late 6 etting back.
Nom didn't want to create a

she said she would put off my

ON THE SIDE
Why All the Hurry
About Christmas?
50 I put the cards away.

So l put the cards away.
But, unfortunately, l forgot
where / put them, and the
week before Christmas ! had
to 60 through the same or
deal again.
That was the year every
body got two cards from the
Loves. For reasons that every
husband viii understand, I
refrained from tellin g my
wife about the mislaid cards.
But she came upon them
while / was at work and
rushed them to the nearest
mailbox. Well, her intentions
we're good, anyway. And, for
that matter, so we're mine.
The presSures for e arly
shopping have been growing
over the years. It seems that
each year, some merchants
start pushing Christmas mer-
ch an disc earlier than the
year before. This year, I re-
ceived three Christmas catal-
ogs in early October, and two
more came my way before
November 10. And the first of
this years batch of Christ
mas cards arrived the day
after Halloween.
Witching Hour
Shopping early is fine for
some people, but l, for one,
enjoy the excitement and sus-
pense Of shopping late. l find
it exhilarating to rush from
store to store on Christmas
Eve. The eleventh hour is the
witching hour, as far as I'm
concerned, and I've picked up
some rather amazing bar
gains just by being late. Last
year, for example, l bought a
$15.95 sweater for only $685..
1t was a size larger than l
wanted and not the preferred
colOr-but at a saving Of 50,
who cares about minor de-
tails?
Besides, some folks prefer
gifts they can exchange. Mis-
fits and unwanted shades pro-
vide valid reasons and thus
prevent feelings Of guilt. And
l certainly don't want to give
my friends and relatives gull
ty feelings for Christmas.
When people start Dragging
that they finished their
Christmas shopping in Au-
gust, and you start receiving
Christmas catalogs in 0cto-
Der, and cards on. November
l, it becomes rother obvious
that there's a concerted
movement to a dvance the
Christmas season as far as
the public will permit. Maybe
this is what the political ora
tors mean when they talk
about going forward" and
moving ahead"
Well, those intelligent, eff
cient types who take care of
Christmas in August are vel
come to the feeling of superb
GRITTY that it gives them. As
far as I'm concerned, Christ
mas always comes too soon.

band had this operation right
here in Detroit, and so have

tients. After many years of

band enjoys normal breathing

like asthma should not be left
lying around loose. l am glad
for these letters because they
are the means for straighten-
ing out a misunderstanding.
In her letter to me, Mrs. B.
wrote: Il have been told
there is a Massachusetts doc
tor who can cure the Severest
asthma by operation. Do you
know Of any operation that is
a positive cure for aSthma?"
Replying, l wrote, 81 know
of no such operation" l re-
peat again, l know of no OPP

such an operation but we can
not say it will positively cure
