April | This and That IW the following phantasy, all char- acters are fictional, all associations, groups, clubs, ete, are"a figment of my somewhat excessive imagination, and as the case may be the story can or cannot be applied to any domestic family at large: In the family under review, there are six persons, - Mr. Bcrumptious, known to his close friends as Hiram, Petunia his wife, Culley, the older son, Magnesia, a teenage daughter, Wobie, the eleven year old son and lastly, the younger daughter, one Yashma, af- fectionately referred to as the pest. Hiram was confiding in me the other week how increasingly difficult it was becoming to get the entire fam- ily together as a unit for any length of time. As an exemple Hiram quot, ed the situation on the previous Mon- day. Hiram returned to his home ex- hausted from work to find the house empty with the exception of his daughter Magnesia, who was in deep conversation on the phone. There was a note to say that his wife Petunia was at a Mothers League meeting and would be late.. Culley, apparently, was at a friend's house doing his homework, Yasha was out, presume- ably with a young friend and Wobie, well my guess was as good as Hiram's. On the agenda for the ensuing week were a number of events. Take, for example, Petunia. Her schedule for that particular week was:- Tuesday, 11 a.m. dental appointment. 2.30 p.m. make sandwiches and deliver to and attend Married Mothers Forum. 7.30 p.m., attend village hall for Senior Pupils Convention. Wed., attend ILen- ten service, stay and help prepare and serve luncheon for visiting digni- taries. This included washing dishes. 2 p.m,,-attend and participate in Lad- ies Curling Spiel. Wed. evening, at- tend committee meeting of local pol- session. On reutrn home from this meeting prepare official minutes in her capacity as secretary.

Luncheon meeting, Green | 'Ciioss "sociaty. oint ment with school authorities re beha- viour of Yashma, then back to school in the evening: for the P. T. A. meet- ing. (Hiram was supposed to attend this too.) Petunia:was supposed to leave the meeting early 'so that she could get all dolled up for: the dance in aid of delinquent children in Ohio. She didn't have to go to Ohio. It was the children of Ohio who were delin- committee for this event and also had to make 28 dozen sandwiches to help feed the masses. (Hiram was to g0 to this dance but it transpired that he arrived when the dance was over). Saturday niorning was to be spent baking goodies for the aftérnoon bake sale, the profit of which was to be directed to the Bugles for Boys fund. All this on top of housework, wash- family, Hiram, during the week, was to work his: normal days, then attend during thé various evenings the P.TA., meeting, Girl Guide meeting, choir Kids; (as-mentioned before, he missed these). He was also to attend Curling Bonspiel, Chamber of Commerce, Ser- vice Club, Council meeting, Church executive meeting Legion meeting, 'School Board meeting, Masonic dinner friend's 50th wedding anniversary supper, Men's. Club meeting and a night meeting apertaining to his bus- ness, Also as a member of the local Ratepayers Asoc. he had to convene 'a meeting for the following week.
