IN MEMORIAM
BOYES—In loving memory of a

"Too dearly loved to ever be
forgotten."
—Husband and family. 3-p
There were times during my ex-
perience as an editor when I was
invited to eat my words by irate
readers who were not in accord
with a stand I had taken in my
paper. I never thought I would
feel that I should go right out and
start chewing on the -pathetically
ice-coated branches of• our trees.
Only two weeks ago, I wrote about
the beauty of such a phenomena of
nature. Today, though the scene
from my picture window is still
the most spectacular show nature
has staged in years, the broken
branches and ruined shrubs grieve
my nature loving heart.
It was during our safari into
the ski country of northern Ont-
ario, that we heard a broadcast
warning of another impending
sleet and ice storm. We decided
to leave for home, though it was
a sacrifice' effort when we re-
membered the homemade lemon
delights in the pie'eupboard of our
farmer friends and the goose that
hung high for basting next day.
The children sulked all the way
down, pretending to ignore the ice
that already covered the train
coach windows. The adults were
warm and happy as we travelled
along and had little, or no pitmen-
ition of the serious trouble and dis-
comfort that lay ahead for all of
us,
Just as the winter sun slid be-
hind a slate gray cloud and dis-
appeared for four days, there was
a sudden silence. The power had
gone off and the rhythmic hum of
the furnace was stilled for 60
hours, only minutes after my ar-
rival bane.
It is frightening how quickly
winter daylight fades, especially
when that servant of man, elect-
ricity, is A. dead as last year's
calendar. I groped around trying
to remember where I had stored
the candles when I put up the
Christmas decorations. At this
point I was quite cheerful. Power
breaks in this modern age are us-
ually only momentary, or at the
worst, we might be without heat
and light for an hour Or se.

Seaforth's I Scott
Received Welcome
Into Federal Circles
Novel description of James
Scott, new federal Liberal organ-
izer, was provided in a recent ed-
ition of the Montreal Financial
Post:
The Liberals' answer to super
huckster Allister Grosart is James
Scott, author, antiquarian, news-
paperman and ex-Grit candidate.
Note, it is no longer Diefenbak-
er versus Pearson. Fellow citiz-
ens, we are in an age where poli-
tical fights are settled by two
guys in "sincere" ties, squaring
off to fight each other in a battle
of pat phrases, against an oblige-
to of 'ringing door bells. * * *
Never mind the issue, the plat-
form, the integrity of the lead-
ers. What does Groscart say?
What does Scott proclaim? With
more or less open eyes and a
raised eyebrow, we greet the
Challenger, Grit Huckster Scott.
Barn in Seaforth, Ontario, at
Mile 113.4 oh the Toronto Godeur
ich line of the CNR, a brain, after
getting his BA at Toronto, he se-

He was successively at the Un-
iversity of Toronto, and at Univ-

he became book editor of the To-

Then he was in charge of talks

Meanwhile he has become the his-
torian of Huron County, and a

mainly Tory these days). He ran
as a Liberal. candidate in Huron,

crackers under my belt, while
clothed in ski underwear, socks
and a granny nightie that had seen
better days and was retrieved from
the dust cloth bag, was only a min-
or inconvenience. I expected the
power would go on any minute
and as the hours wore on, I hug-
ged a cooling hot water bottle
tighter and tighter and felt my
breath settling in little wisps on
my upper lip with every exhaling.
Funny how the hours can drag
when trouble is brewing. When I
struck a match I found it was only
4 a.m. and the thermostat an-
nounced the inside temperature
was now 35 degrees above zero.
Something had to be done and fast
before I completely congealed, I
shoulder
s blanket around my
and stalked through the
house looking like a character
from Shakespeare, trailing the
blanket and holding on high, . a
flickering candle,
I built a fire in the fireplace,
hung a candlewick spread at the
archway, drew the chesterfield up
close to the flame and while my
face blistered and my rear side
froze, I warmed a cup of soup held
with the fire tongs over a sputter-
ing blaze, Nothing I have ever
tasted was more eagerly relished.
As the hours dragged into days
my pioneer spirit rose. I invented
ways and means of dishing up a
most delectable meal from cans
heated in the fireplace and then
opened while still steaming hot.
I blessed the ingenuity of the
person whp had manufactured as-
bestor oven mitts, canned chicken
a al Xing, candied sweet pota-
toes, button mushrooms and min-
ute desserts that whipped up
quickly when added to cold milk,
and I do mean cold. Wrapped in
wooly blankets with my feet per-
ched On an ottoman, I almost en.
joyed' the shivering hours I spent
with the Complete works of Ogden
Nash, a set Of books I had found
under my Christmas tree.
I listened gratefully to the
splash, splash of taps as they kept
running to save them from freez-
ing, felt a warm glow when my
neighbour arrived with his arras
full of hefty logs for the fire and
had a menlent of sheer regret as
I gazed on the once proud array
of African violate. They were as
black as the inside of your hat
arid as limp as old lettuce, but net
half as tragic as the Mutilation of
hundred year old trees, I will take
nature many years to cover tha
sears of this stormy week, but t
can grow a violet again in a mat-
ter of months from e. little leaf.
