Or at any rate feels at ease with them and takes for granted that they all like him; or will if they get to know him

Also. he may take for granted that if a woman client prefers not to be kissed a second time, she will manage to prevent it without offense. Further. he may suppose that a woman who offers no resistance may even be grate- ful for these crumbs of affection (real or ersatz) that he scatters about. ' A logical second guess would be that essentially he is a bit on the sissy-side. notwithstanding his outward semblance of magne-

The advent of Christmas and all its trimmings in a place such as Cape Coral always comes with a shock to anyone coming f r o m such northerly places as Canada. where a green Christ- mas is the exception rather than the rule.

Take the business of buying Christmas cards to se n d friends in Trotonto and Ottawa. for instance. Come off a palm- lined boulevard. where hibis-

The ii there are Christmas trees. A few days before Christ- mas Day. real trees go on sale. Because of the warmth. the life expectancy of Christmas trees here is not very long. and many people turn to artificial trees — green or shining aluminum col- lapsible affairs.

These work out very well. ex- cept that the gap between one Christmas and the next is so great that by the time the s e c o n d Christmas has arrived. the tree used for the

m ml first Christmas has nysteriously

be purchased. The first tree in- vsrisbly turns up the day after ‘ tsnu This answers the to why some famili- or seven srtifie i at stockpile automati-
