and it was too good to throw out the bedroom is 30 x 20 so it can quite easily ac comodate unwanted placet of furniture this old table was real ly something old oak with six olid legs the two extra lega had always been a nuisance ao the other day i turned the table on its aide to find out if they could be re moved without too much trouble i found i had a striking example of the difference between old f and newt lay only tool was a acrewdriver yet inside of thirty minutes i had all the togs nffj utit tht tf ad what a buy the miracle of spring ja repeated gain pasture land and wheat fields are looking fresh and green even some prifiaown fields have a greenish tinge suggesting the successful germination of early oats daffodils are swaying in the wind in all their golden glory flowering shrubs bursting with new life whether it be foliage the golden bells of the forsythla or the cherry red japonica the great outdoors is full of promise after a wonderful rain now all we have to do is keep pace with it we also have with us daylight saving time a help or a hindrance according to what we make of it in haying time it is undoubtedly a hindrance to farmers but right now i can t see that it makes much difference one way or another another unfailing sign of spring the swallows are back to the barn or rather one swallow has returned partner says the same thing happens every spring he is milking hears a htue chirp now and then looks up and sees one little swallow flying in and out first to one beam and then another this one reconnoitring swallow then disappears but eventually it stays around for a day or two and returns in company with brothers and rtsters its co affitilg anfitsrtkirtrriaiangrsooir underway and then comes the serious business of setting up bouse and raising a family life has few complications for the swallow family their swift flight and the location of their nests defies even the barnyard cat perhaps that is why shakespear spoke of them as symbolic of hope true hope is swift and flics with swallow s wings but the swallows are not the only ones around here with plans for setting up house son bob is doing the same thing only unlike the swallows he is batching ii at least for the present he has a nice little bungalow on the out skirts of oakville only a few hundred yards from the construe hon plant where he work- which ins saving time and jas thil would ordinarily be used if he were commuting from here such a nice little bungalow four rooms and a bathroom and n fulliizc basement the ground floor front windows look out icrov i pasture field uhcra there are several lovily big trcis beyond thit stretches the queen flizibeth way with its con stanlly mining traffic but the kit n and bobs bedroom hive quite diflertnt outlook which bob finds rather amusing that is i view of the main yard of the con struction plant complete with shovels trucks and one giant size ciment mixer the flowers that bloom m the spring tra la i nothing to do with the cas from the nar view of bobs little house there are only five other housps in the immediate vicinity s the district is not overcrowded as et we too have been moving house but onh within our own four walls we bought an ox tra piece of new bedroom furniture three times oi three different da before i a satisfied with the result one nighi before rttinng pirtnor said and whore shitl i find the bed tonight i hardly know my way around any more some of the unwanted stuff that we have iround bob is making use of for the present including i square table which wis in our bed room because then was no other table or make it into two smaller ones and he thinks the surplus legs can be cut down to make ba for table lamps so if you people have any old furniture that can do with a little remodelling you will pro bably find it can be taken apart just as easily as this table of ours or give it away and let someone else have the fun and satisfaction working on it through the years on farms in particular cumulate a lot of stuff that might just as well be shared with the younger ones as they leave the old place to make homes for them selves thank you fw for your kind words 1 am
