When Sandy appeared, mot- hers could sigh with relief because the baby wouldn't • go Without his milk, and there would be milk• for the cereal. jf Sandy Was in sight they knew Mr. Powell, their milkman, would b e only a couple houses away. Travelling by truck was warmer than by horse and cart and even easier. "It's quicker, too," Mr. Powell said. He used to have to lift the milk cases from the cooler, but now in recent' years the milk is loaded from one refrigerated truck to another. He said he counts on about five to six hours of work a' day. "Sometimes it's longer, some times it's shorter. it depends on the weather and if you don't talk too much." , "The milkman hears a lot of stuff. You've got the first hand gossip," he admitted. ' "You really get to know people; the kids get to know you too," he said. "There are a lot of nice, — kind wortierr—in Seaforth and Dublin." When he was asked what he meant, he said, instead of leaving the bottles on the porch, in the winter time, they would leave them in the kitchen so he would have to step inside the house, and warm up. "If it was cold they'd give you a coffee or something like that," he said. He said he delivers milk three days a week in Dublin. "1 like the ouside, I like the great outdoors. The ,more it stormed, the better I liked it," lie He remembers only one day in his 27 years' of sevice when there was no milk delivery. That was because of a snow storm about- l; five years ago, They couldn't get a plough down Main Street, and they took the plows off the street. "I went uptown to a few of the wholesalers and I was lucky to get home even then," he said. He went to Dublin and found all the hotels were filled with people waiting out the storm, .ri Behind Plow .11 are all just boys with long pants on." Dogs were always thought to be the curse of a milkman but Mr. Powell didn't, agriee. "No, I like dogs, I like dogs and kids. I can make a friend out of them in no time," he said. "Just be kind to a dog, and you'll make a friend -of him in no time". Slip the odd thild a bottle of chocolate milk and they really like you, "My kids have always helped me, and they've grown, up and their kids have helped me," he said. "Young Rob (his son) has helped me since he was five years old. I've always had a kid with. me. They save you a lot of steps," he said. For some kids, he gave them their first job. "I. told them they had to learn how to work. I told them "This world isn't easy. don't get that in your head. Always work ,well and you can always get a job," he said. Some of those boys even come to see me and drop by the house. One lad he remembers said: "I learned an awful lot ,from you. Art". "When 1 first started, people gave me a week or two," he ch,--,•kles. But the time has gone by quickly tor Mr. Powell, who says it doesn't seem such a long time since he was a young man, and now he is retiring. Outside Job Before b ecoming a milkman, he worked on a farm, just outside of Seaforth. He enjoyed being a Milkman because it was ian "outside job." He expects to be working for Exeter Dairy for another month or so. "It doesn't pay to keep a truck and pay a man liut if if hadn't been for that," he said he would have continued working for a number of years. He said he would take another job now, if he got one he liked, because his health isAstill good. Without working, the days are going to seem long. "It isn't so bad now," becauge he has a big garden, but "come winter, I'll be sitting around playing a lot of euchre."
