Democracy In Action

The decision as to what will appear on the front page is

not always an easy one to make. Taking this issue for ex-

ample, we had several possibilities to consider. One was the

lovely mahogany dressing screen designed and built by

Glenn Firmender. Naturally, Glenn was very much in favor

of using a photo of that. Another was the toy train and this,

we felt, should be shown in a setting of Christmas tree,

wrapped gifts and a delighted child. A third possibility was

to show the pine wall secretary; this choice being compli-

cated by the question of whether to show it in an open or

closed position.

Having been born under the sign of Libra, I weighed one

possibility against another until I became thoroughly

muddled and unable to decide. Since I pride myself on

being always willing to listen to the opinions of others

(Librans do that so they can have more information to weigh

and become more confused), I put the matter up to an em-

ployee vote.

The vote was split between five for the dressing screen

and five for the toy train with only two votes, including

mine, in favor of the wall secretary. Librans like to veto.

Woodworking Shows

The Woodworking World Show in Philadelphia will be

held at the Farmers Market in Downingtown, from Nov.

1lth through the 13th. We will be in booth 74 and hope you

will pay us a visit. Another big show will be held in Toronto

at the Constellation Hotel and Convention Center, from

Feb. 3rd through the 5th. Now if some promoter would just

set up a show in January, in a warm place like Palm Beach,

Florida, I'd be very happy to attend.

Tempus Fugit

This issue completes our seventh (count 'em) year of

publication and, looking back, I find it hard to believe that

the time has passed so quickly. Why is it the older one gets,

the faster the years seem to go by, while for a 17 year old,

it seems to take an eternity to reach the age of 18?

Seems to me that it should be the other way around, with

the perception of time compressing for impatient youth and

gradually stretching out for those who are looking forward

to retirement or a leisurely pursuit of those activities they

never had time for while engaged in the Great Marathon of

earning a living.

That old adage about time flying when you're having fun

is certainly true when it comes to woodworking. Get your-

self really into a project on a Saturday morning and before

you know it, it's Sunday evening.

There's an old proverb, of Arabic origin I think, that

states that God does not deduct from a person's life the

time spent fishing. I like to think that applies also to

those who work with wood.
