Three simple quotations... from three anything -- but imple men. If read and studied -s- and followed, they could be the start of a richly rewarding way to live. My New Year's resolution may be as pie crust, but perhaps in the simple act of thinking and examination, something new may be started. Maybe some day I will master Time instead of Time's mastering me. The breaking comes with the eating and theres ... PMONt to gaokon! o STARK LEIGH an interesting set Wading thru the wrapping paper and boxes after the big Christmas morning can be pretty exciting! packages are stuffed with newspapers . . . really fun to pull apart and look at. Tbe ads in other cities are not so different, but I read some choice articles. You have to be an old attic snooper or Just curious I suppose tbe happenings In other places can be viewed without the usual emotion. Funny too what other locales choose to play up in their news. Politics, homicides and traffic tolls were the favorites. What really caught my eye the was a short article on teenage buying. It seems they like everything from baby alligators to Paris fashions. So, I decided to do a little more research oa these youngsters . . . how interesting they are! Their incomparable tastes are creating a vast empire. billion dollar babies I was quite surprised to find out that the fastest growing market in the United States today is products for teenagers. Parents who own s few in this age group probably wont find the Information so new, but the effects of these kids can hardly be measured. They are very affluent . . . with or without fielr parents aid. American teenagers earn about ha J of what they spend and get tbe rest from their family allowances. Even tho this sounds wishy-wash- y, statistics compiled from 1963 say that teeners spent 11 billion dollars on goods and services to satisfy their whims, needs and wants. While we are used to hearing big money terms, this is still a very, very large amount! Merchandising isnt Ignoring this gigantic market. We all have learned the power of the pout, tears or downright rage when our youngsters want something 'cause all the kids have it. With masterful planning, manufacturers plot with advertising people and employ every means available to create new and better things for teenagers. If we were really alert, wed realize that nearly everything is geared to tills Pepsi Generation. They start them early. Even little children are appealed to with TV commercials. Tm asked to use soap, chew the double-gostuff and wash my hair in 19 different all because the commercial girls are ss things glamorous as Little Bo Peep. Its true! Kids are brand name conscious, are all amatuer interior decorators and certainly up on tbe latest in personal the hygiene. We might as well live with it statistics also related that by 1970, teenage boys and girls will be spending s whopping 21 billion dollars s year! Interesting side --happenings occur when these men and ladles throw their weight around Loung family circles too. When Mom and Dad select a new car (or End --even 3rd car) they have their say. The extra television sets, phonographs, radios, etc are also under their Jurisdiction. Their Influence is felt clear down the line. Personally tho, I have always been extra found of these hardworking young adults. I Ilka tbe crisp new styles theyre willing to accept, the brilliant wav they add flair and versatility to a mere original design and their vitality forcing oldsters to remain young! II they're spending billions, its worth it to all of us! Receiving-No- t SoBad If Natural BY JOYCE STOUT Some of the ... ing such-n-cu- Tbe subject of giving may be s little ed this time of year, but an unexpected incident has made giving a lot more meanand receiving ingful to me this week, and very close to my heart. Giving has long been a source of contention with me because r ve somehow managed to place the whole concept in the paradoxical position of being s tar greater thing thaa It really Is while at the same time underestimating its Importance. Sound confusing? It was to me. too. .But about a week ago, I was in an automobile accident that will probably slow down my pace tor several months to come. It has given me time to think a luxury I seldom indulged In before and to appreciate some of the things Id been too busy to really notice. I didnt know bow many friends I had until I was down . . . how much it means to have them call or stop by . . . how much they tre willing to do for me. For the first time, I realised that giving is simply genuinely caring. II you really like people, giving follows over-work- naturally. And there Is no big to-about it. it is natural and verymsan-tngfudo l. The same holds for receiving. Nothing puts one who gives in such great bondage as the recipient who feels obligated to repay every gift or act of kindness. If one has given in the spirit of friendship and caring, the gift should be accepted in this same spirit. Your turn to give will come maybe not to the same person or in the same way - but where It Is needed. to turn cynical tor a momare a few things I learned about the opposite side of the coin, too, since Ive been down and out People have always told me, Ifs always darkest before the dawn and Now ent, there other little similes. But as I lay here on the couch, typewriter awkwardly at my side and broken foot suspended in air . . . another saying comes vividly to mind: One day someone told me, Cbeer up, things could get worse. So I cheered ur and sure enough . . . they got worse!! ch ... od CARRIER BOY ... ... THE SHOPPING HOCK Po6t --Christmas sales ire now in full progress. While riding on the escalator yesterday, I heard two women talking In 1 dont really front of me. need It, one said, but It's such s bargain, I really cant up. And I guess thats way most of us feel about sales. Even if we really dont need any of tbe things we buy, look at all the money weve saved! I once knew a woman who would buy a coat on sale one that had tor 399.00 been marked down from $149 . . . and then go out and the $50.00 that she sit ... hap-spe- nd saved. Her husband see the logic in but I her way of thinking imagine many women can. Personally, I love a sale. 1 Just ... enjoy digging down to tbe bottom of a pile of sweaters or rummaging through racks at marked --down clothes. And since I work downtown and have tbe opportunity of seeing much of this merchandise after Week, I can follow tbe progress of a suit or t coat I want and be there week ... when a $133.00 item goes for $33.00. Shopping around the I do, I know tbe prices y oo clothes and who has the and vbo price marked up has the best sales. When the w-- ... bargain counter Is announced . . . and if s something I want . . . T m usually first in line. Because . . . who doesnt like to save money by spending money? That's the most fun way to shop that I know! To The Reviewls Feminine Readers...... com-frlexlt- ies always another year roll!: a fresh, new one, around for a fresh, new start. And a Kapfy Year to you all. ... UOS WUMINCTOi AVINU are like pie to be broken. The first time I heard that saying, I didnt quite understand it And, in a way, I still dont Because piecrust is really made to be eaten, not broken; the breaking comes with the eating. Perhaps promises exist only in the making perhaps the thought behind them is the whole reason for their existence. Take the inevitable New Year's resolutions, for example. In a way, they're promises; promises made to oneself. And if most of them end up broken, at least tor a short while someone has sat down, examined his life, and tried to keep going In the ' right direction. This year, I dont believe brother with several resolutions. one should be sufficient to keep me busy. 1 think I'll concentrate on the Organisation of Time, using three quotations as my starting point. The first, by Bernard Baruch, is his advice oo how to keep vitality and health into old age: Always do one thing less each day thaa you think you can do .t The second, by Tboreau from Walden, our life la frittered away by detail . . . Simplify, simplify. And the third Is William James definition of Serenity: Tbe habit of always seeing aa alternative. Taking all three quotations together and living by them could make for a well --organised life, serene and productive, with no frantic, last minute scurrying. Too many times we lay out too many things to be done each day. Five oclock finds us rushing ahead with not much, accomplished because we have tried to spread ourselves too thin. It when we make a list or plan our day, we could then go over it and remove one or two Jobs, more might be accomplished in the long rtm because we could spend more time on each item we had to do. Simplify? That's what we a need in the world today little application of the word simplify. Writing from his quiet and severely simple home oo Walden Pood, Thor- eau worried about the of life one hundred years ago. Faced with the average schedule of the average mother and housewife of today, he probably couldn't believe the incredible amount of Jobs and tasks people undertake without thinking twice about them. To simplify Is often to make better. Learning to say No when asked to do something more can betbeginning. Holding down one or two extra and really working Jobs hard in them is better than belonging oo the board of many causes and never going to tbe meetings. And as for serenity, William James Is right. It's achieved through always having an alternative, by being flexible. If Plan A doesn't work, be ready to toss is Plan B.
