Page 10 SEE HERE, YOUNG LADY - - - from Sea-Lore, 1948 W. V. High School Annual She doesn't like my figure or the powder shade I wear. She disapproves my posture and the way I do my hair. She finds my voice displeasing and my humor "off the beam". No one could ever be the mess my daughter makes me seem. Not that she's ever rude, dear no! she simple oozes tact In pointing out the virtues and the graces that I lack. "Jenny's mother has a figure that is simply too divine". (And her eyes will wander sadly o'er this forty-four of mine,) "Dottie's mother takes us bowling, she can roll two hundred ten!" And "Mother, please don't tell me that you're wearing brown again!" "Jill's mother's suit is orchid, but of course her skin is fair". Then, slyly, "Darling, have you thought of touching up your hair?" I know it's really funny and I've no cause to be hurt. But sometimes it's a trifle thick, and that is when I blurt: "Now, listen here, young lady, I'm no beauty. I'll agree. But this is what God gave me and it's good enough for me." She retires in hurt silence, and I am left to muse That I, a score of years ago, was standing in her shoes. I blush now to remember the convictions that I carried Concerning the shortcomings of the woman Father married. Oh, age will bring her wisdom, so I keep my tongue in cheek. For the spirit may be willing, but the flesh is very weak. I can't measure to her standards, but I'm waiting hopefully For the day her daughter looks at her the way she looks at me! --BARBARA KELSEY, GR.
