quiet on the home front at least for the moment dave is in bed luj not asleep he has had a very active day and so has grand ma grajidpa also shares in the activitfas he has dave outside with him for about a couple of hours every afternoon we occasionally have a tussle of wills like all other children dave has to see how far lie can go and get away with it for that reason we have to make sure that he does as he is told he can travel so fast and has so much strength for a wee fellow that neither partner nor i could handle him if we allowed him to get out of hand of course he has a lingo all his own which we dont always un derstand however by following his line of reasoning and dont ever think he hasnt got one we can generally figure out what he is talking about and in that way we make out all right surprisingly he gets into very little mischief i expected we would have to put things out of reach and keep a few doors and cupboards shut up but it hasnt been that way at all nor does he interfere with the television of course he wants his own programs morning and evening after that ho pays no at tention to the set at all but a fun ny thing happened yesterday dave was by hiniself in the livingroom i thoukht i heard him whimpering and went to see what was the mat ter he was sitting in a big chair and half crying as he looked into the black ace of the television i had forgotten to turn it on that was soon remedied and he was hap py again the weather hasnt helped us at all with our babysitting we cant leave the young man outside to play by himself there are too many wet places practically the only dry spot is in the lane and that hardly makes a safe playground the weather also complicates the busi ness of getting him dressed light weight snowsuit mitts helmet and rubber boots not quite the sort of outfit you expect a child to wear the fourth week in may and how disappointing the gar den is this spring very few daffo dils and we usually have such a lot i hope the bulbs havent rotted one of our neighbors who generally has the side oc a hill looking just like a host of golden daffodils this year has very little bloom at all how ever in our garden we at least have lots of narcissi to look forward to apparently they dont mind the cold backward spring there is still no spring seeding done around here except on a few isolated forms where a stretch of sandy soil runs through the district on some farms cattle have been turned out to pas ture they should at least have plenty of grass and water for awhile catkins are out on the poplars and the orioles have returned to the elms occasionally we see canaries and sapsuckers and that is about the extent of natures story at the moment no frogs even yet government surveyors have done a little more decorating in our fields they already had yellow stakes tipped with black and orange stakes tipped with red some of them to mark the spot where iron stakes are embedded in the well buy your iinused mileage swap

gank came along andput in ordinary steel fence posts righ alongside the yellow stames the department of highways evidently doesnt intend anyone to forget where the survey goes through it isnt so communicative in other matters for instance the department has already registered a plan for ex propriation of the land needed for the road but as yet- we have not been notified nor have there been any men out from the property office to appraise the value of the land strange the things that can be done on a persons own property when the government takes over not that we mind we are only too anxious to see the work started thats the trouble with these big highway jobs the planning stage takes so long the road is out of date before it gets finished this column has been written by fits and starts in between attending to davids demands and answering the telephone we did not expect any company this weekend and then came a call from my sister and nephew in oshawa would it be all right to come for the day on mon day the answer want definitely yes we have not seen them for over three years so we shall be very glad to have them come later i suddenly remembered one of them is a vegetarian and the other on a fatfree diet that rattier compli cates things with the stores closed fortunately we have plenty of milk eggs rhubarb and a little as paragus all that added to what- ever the refrigerator may produce will no doubt see us through we also got a phone call from daughter who said she was feeling very much better so we feel well repaid for having taken young dave off her hands
