My only experience Is a friend who once wore white on Mother's Day. It was a T.S. situation (Too Soon). “There was an unseasonal snow. A dog threw up on her in church. And three pigeons from the air mistook her for a capitol dome. She never defied the calendar agaln. It takes a certaln personality to wear white all year long.

Enough is enough, Let's sit back, cultivate our own gardens, and have a few centuries of peace and friendship. Let's relax a little, try to make sure everybody has at least two ee a day, stop burning energy, and jas a effect on me." It didn't bother F. Scott Fitzgerald. It doesn’t bother Steve Martin, and It certainly didn’t . bother Carole Lombard or Marlene Dietrich.

You doubt it? \How come you never see a bride sitting down? No ‘one has ever been able to explain the ‘spot mystique. Wearing white clothing Is like wearing a dinner napkin.

All over this planet people are starving, shooting, burning, blowing -up, raping, mutilating, and demonstrating, all in the name’ of some non-existent ideal, such as freedom, or nationalism, . or language, or teligion, or ‘color. And nobody is making a nickel out of it all, except the purveyors of weapons. All over the world, in vast areas of Asia, Africa and South America particularly, there are probably 300 times more refugees, orphans and just plain starving people than there were at the begin- ning of this century of enlightenment.
