Weddings
By M flyn WotXnwn
As the colorful leaves tumble down and the brilliant flowers fade,
it’s time to boogie right past Veteran’s Day and start concentrating
on the upcoming holidays-even if you haven’t put away the garden
seed or hung up the shovel.
While baking and entertaining are important facets of this holiday
season many of us spend a great deal of time and money on gift buy
ing for our materialistic society. I’ve been thinking about giving family
members a battery charger so that after the holiday frenzy, batteries
can be recharged-but I don’t know if that device will work on peo
ple. 1 do know from experience that one can get a charge if you in
correctly hook up jumper cables.
On a recent Oprah television show the spending habits of people
were discussed. Some parents believe that their children should have
everything on a lengthy want list. This contributes to a society that
wants it all and expects it immediately.
A better way might be ‘people-powered’ gifts such as tasks that
don’t require a lot of cold cash. There’s always an opportunity to
provide services for others which do not come in a fancy wrapped
package. A lot of praise goes to those who find time and eneigy to
make hand-crafted gifts. How about an l.O.U. for a camping trip
or a visit to a zoo enclosed in a book? Then there are leaves to rake,
household cleaning chores or taking someone to a concert. Please
note, 1 seldom do windows, especially my own.
Now this has nothing to do with the National Greography Week
starting November 15-or does it? Most adults need a new history
book for Christmas as countries change boundaries and names. It
seems to take a civil war to refresh our long forgotten history lessons
about little-known small countries.
It’s also alarming that our own state is changing. This past year
the state’s population grew by 59,000 people with the population now
at over three million. Analysts estimate that 42,000 new Oregonians
are immigrants from other states rather than new births. About 60
percent of these people came from California and the largest number
of these people are between 25 and 34 years of age.
That should mean more consumers who will also be doing some
