isn’t from smoke from any
nearby fires.Of course I mean
the closure of the Simpson
mills has made a number of
people feel that their own
personal world has sort of
fallen in on them. Guess I’m
not up to form—being a
“worrier” I should be more
upset than I am; perhaps
that will come later. Think
the weather has something
to do with it. I can get much
more depressed about things
on a dreary winter day.
However, the shut-down
has been a blow to both
young and old. Young peo
ple nowadays are usually up
to their necks buying homes,
cars—and sometimes their
babies aren’t always paid for
either! Older people nearing
retirement age find that a
sudden curtailment of income
drastically changes
their
plans, both present and fu
ture.
All we can do is hope the
picture changes quickly and
that the mills open soon un
der the same or different
management (as the many
“rumors” go.)
One thing we all should be
grateful for is the wonderful
summer we are having on
the heels of an open winter.
We will have to be just a
little more careful about
fires, though. There is an
abundance of dry grass
around and all it takes is one
little cigarette stub to get a
big blaze going.
We have personally had
more enjoyment out of our
“little bit of North Fork” this
summer than in many other
years when it was on the cool
side.
We were up there last
Thursday evening with Don
and Alta, their son, Donovan,
and his two boys plus our
daughters’ dog, Rusty. We
all had a lot of fun floating
down the river on rubber
rafts. There is something
about that water that really
makes a dip feel good.
There doesn’t seem to be
any shortage o f money
among the teen-agers today.
We were in Salem one day
last week—and the town
was simply over-run with
young people buying clothes,
etc. The nice part of it is that
a great many of them—in
fact most—have earned the
money themselves.
If this warm front keeps
up until school starts—the
kids will be screaming for
air-conditioning — maybe
they have it now In some
places along with carpeting
and all the other frills. With
some of the newer schools
furnished in such a plush
manner it must be hard for
the poorer kids to go home.
I’m afraid that school
boards and staff members do
a little “politicking” and
maneuvering these days—
like so many people. In dis
tricts where budgets failed
being “deprived” of so many
so-called extras. I doubt very
much if the cuts are really
necessary because in another
news item one may read that
the funds a school is to re
ceive is more than anticipat
ed. It’s really quite amazing
the way things are operated
nowadays—we cry about tax
es but still we demand so
much. Like most things—
they are going to have to be
paid for one way or another.
So let’s don’t blame every
thing on the government—
because we are the govern
ment—and people today de
mand the most and best of
everything—but are not al
ways willing to pay for it.
Getting back to my origin
al subject (that’s why I call
this Ramblings) the high
costs really hit the average
person pretty hard when
they are unemployed even for
a short time. But in every
newspaper, on the air and in
TV newscasts the trend for
wages and costs of goods is
spiraling higher and higher
—we cry about the welfare
state—well if the good Lord
doesn’t take care of us—at
the rate we are going—some
one will have to, after our
own resources and initiative
have been entirely spent. I
still think most people want
to be independent if at all
possible.
Speaking of the strain of
modern life—Dr. Norman
Vincent Peale, pastor of New
York’s
Marble
Collegiate
Church told this one: “We’ve
become so keyed up and ner
vous that it is impossible to
put people to sleep with a
sermon. I haven’t seen any
one sleeping in church in
years—and I will tell you
that’s a bad situation.”
