    The whole process that we go through in finding a suitable place in which to store the mementos that we collect is an involved  and rather intricate one. We seem to know almost by instinct that an object that has provided a focal point of interest as well as sight for the past few days or past few weeks will be "needed" again before too long. As a result, the first resting place—after the display at first, of course—is more often than not a shelf high up the wall, s shelf in a cabinet of some kind, a table or desk drawer,or some spot that is easy to see and not too hard for us to reach inside a closet. Any one of these temporary places of storage makes it possible for us to find the memento with the least amount of effort and lost time whenever it becomes necessary for us to have the memento in hand; in addition, such a place provides us with an opportunity to satisfy our wish to be reminded frequently of the memento and the circumstances that surround our having received the objects in the first place. The circumstances, of course, must be pleasant to remember; otherwise we would not have saved the object from destruction at the time it come into our possession.
    Having lost out in the battle that arises over having to store the object somewhere out of sight, the owner of the memento is more than likely still fuming and pouting and in a frame of mind to make one last stand against storage of any king. The main defense usually is that the donor would be very offended.
    It is with great reluctance that we at last give into the need to physically remove the object that marks some king of achievement from the living sections of the house. The need for space sooner or latter impels or compels us to carefully wrap the object and ever so carefully place it in a trunk or some other container that we have in the attic, the basement, the garage, or some other place that is visited more or less infrequently.
