PAGE SIX FRANK JENKINS Editor BILL JENKINS Managing Editor I FLOYD WYNNE City Editor MAURICE MILLER Circulation Mgr Ph. TU 4-4752 1'ienie : By BILL JENKINS ; Everylhing seems to change these days. But nothing, I'm fiire. has undergone Mich a dras tic revision as the common Amer ican picnic. Not if we arc to be lieve the evidence anyway. In the old days, il 1 recall cor rectly, a picnic was an affair usu ally indulged in the spring and t iimmer months. The family loaded up a basket with tuna sandwiches, fried chicken, pea nut butler and radishes. The faithful old insulated jug was filled with lemonade and the whole family took olf for the nearest spot along the nearest river where you could swim in the shallows, lie around in the shade, and eat too much and, .in your spare lime, battle the anls : Apparently this tradition has pone with the derby hat and the nickel beer. - Nowadays I can only picture the average family picnic as go ing something like this: The word spreads that there is to be a picnic. Tension fills the air. Command forces rally around the leader who assigns each mem ber a sector. "Clean out your sec tor," goes the order, "flct every piece of garbage, junk, rubble Don't overlook a single empty can or bottle. Pack them all up end put them in the car. This being done the happy fam ily lakes off for some far away spot in the woods, the more beau t if til the belter. Perhaps they find a murmurous little stream somewhere with grassy banks and shady old logs around to sit tin. . Then Ihe action flares. Junior takes his allotment of winter trash and dumps it behind a log. Father, being a little old and stiff in I he joints, dumps his in the middle of Ihe road. Mother dumps last week's garbage, her old shoes, several old pans that are worn out and a collection of old magazines in the creek hop ing they will wash away. They don't. They just spread along the banks. , Sisler, being of an invenlivc mind, finds a hollow stump and carefully dumps her garbage there, thus achieving a sort of nat ural cornucopia of trash that, can be seen, and smellcd, for quite a distance around. Having achieved Ihcsc individ ual cffnrls the family sils down to a picnic meal consisting en tirely of things out of cans and bottles and served in paper plates and cups. The empty con tainers are used in a throwing contest to sec who can get the most distance. The bottles, ac cording to Ihe rules, must be broken. Preferably where some child or a wandering dog will cut his feet to ribbons on Ihe shards. The cups are lossed in the creek and the plales are scaled all owr the landscape. Then, having finished, the fam ily picks up the picnic blanket and heads out, filled with a sense of satisfaction that they have got ten rid of at least part of Ihe ac cumulated trash and garbage in the house. The trip home will be marred only if they happen by Ihe city dump. If that happens they will all wrinkle up their noses, shud der in disgust and ask each other how in the world anyone could stand lo drive into such a place whore all Hint garbage is being carefully buried by a big bull do?er. You think this is tint an ac curate picture of the picnic as she is known lod.iy? Then just go out in the woods one of these fine days. Head for your favorite fishing stream. Hie yourself lo Ihe little beauty spot that you remember so well from last year. I'll guarantee that you'll come home feeling like I do. That Ihe average picnic must he nothing but a chance for the unthinking and the inconsiderate to dump their trash. lripvnnri By FLORENCE JENKINS The National Association of Retail Grocers has come out with a three-step method for handling employe grievances. The three steps arc: 1. Cry 2. Lislen 3. Smile "Crying" with the employe over his problems makes him feel he has found a friend. Ihe Associa tion claims, pointing nut that lack of friendship (according lo Indus trial psychologists! is one of the major reasons for employes grievances.

He is going to plug for Vicchat Kennedy had done them in President diehard M. Nixon Back in late January, in his first political siccch of Ihe year he started banging al the critics mainly Democrn'ic would-be prcs- idential candidates of bis ad - ministration's defense efforts. His answer, repeated again in February and once more Monday nizht in a speech to Iteuuhlican'consin cot into t lie act. Thcv an- women, is that this counlrv is thpinoiinccd for what it was worth. strongest on earlh. He thought t lie criticism tough enough to require answer at least three times. Bui Democratic charges thai Ihe American economy has been stunted during his seven years in office also irritate him. He has louent back on Ihat, arguing his administra' ion's aim was lo pre serve Ihe stability ol Ihe dollar. Monday night he returned lo a justification of the way his admin istration has handled Ihe econo my. This lime he returned to an idea which he has used a number of times before and attributed lo Lincoln that the government should only do what a citizen can't do lor himself. But the Democrats argue in es sence that Eisenhower has simply tailed to do enough. As for Nixon: Eisenhower fired his opening gun in support of Nion's presidential candidacy al news colerence Inst month. Monday night he exmunded on Nixon's virtues as he sees Ihem. The list of his administration's accomplishments which he reeled off seemed clearly Ihe foundation on which he will campaign (his year to get a Republican president j elected, with his own record as a base for his successor. If all the points in the list rould he bundled into one sentence Ihey would carry Ihe label peace and prosperity. This was pretty much his main theme in his in.jfi cam paign for his own reelection. He hit hard on the reminder that il was in his administration the war in Korea was ended and Ihat no American has died in battle since. He repealed his belief in the need for a balanced budget al though through most of his admin istration he has been unable lo achieve it. He summed up in Ihe following paragraph Ihe various stops on the political organ he and the rest of the Republicans w ill play I his year. "The record is filled with such advances as improvements in Ihe health and welfare of our people, the greater soundness, freedom .inn growth ot our economy, in-' creased modernization and strengthening of our defense greater prestige abroad and Ihe initiation of a road-building pro gram that dwarfs anything' of its kind in all history of all nations " Washington Wiiiilou By 1.VI.E C.
