Bv CLIFFORD P. ROWE
Goodness only knows I try
very much to keep a youthful
point on views. In fact, for the
middle-ager that is one of the
most popular methods of keeping
on the "young" side of the fence.
Just to be able to say "I can
see why a youngster feels that
way or why he does what he does
seems to provide a certain a-
mount of insurance against slip­
ping into th? darkness of the
"forgotten generation."
Nevertheless, at times it be­
comes rather difficult to main­
tain such an attitude. Take snow
for an example. I can still re­
member, as if in a dream, when
as an early grade-schooler, I
would shout with glee at my
first glimpse of a lazily falling
snowflake. Yes, I can remember
—but for the soul of me I can t
remember why. I fail utterly to
see how anyone could get any
joy out of this routine disturbing
and practical joking Mother
Nature.
Twice already this year, I
have awakened to find the
ground covered with this milk-
white curse for vehicular and
pedestrian traffic. And on neither
occasion have I noticed anyone
enjoying it. Perhaps if I lived
in an area where the snow didn’t
immdiately turn to soup, J could
si?e some sense in it.
Youngsters could then get out
sleds or even take up sharp-
-hooting exercises on fancy hats.
But in this area th? sleds would
have to be equipped with out­
board motors and the snowballs
in waterproof sacks.
So as I look around at my
friends, young and old alike, I
fail to find’any evidence of glee
or exhilaration as a result of
these sudden wet blankets. And
as I slip, slide, splash, and then
plunge into unsuspected snow-
covered troughs of water, my
only consolation is that I have
plenty of suffering brethren for
company.
I don’t Know what the almanac
has in store for the rest of the
winter; certainly I have not got­
ten around to interv iewing a cat-
ei pillar yet, but I for one sin-
serely hope that the elements
will soon be "fresh out” of snow
at least for us west of the Cas­
cades. For those in high and dry
eas’ ?rn Oregon, I can only wish
rha- they get all of ours. Th?
stuff in which we are flounder­
ing would be manna for their
winter wheat. Here it serves no
earthly purpose.
