The Tale of a Tired Postman
Early on the afternoon of
December 20 I met our post-
man trudging up the hill on
Kennedy Street West in Aur-
ora, Ontario, loaded to his chin
with mali to be deposited in
the group box assigned. to all
residents further • along the st-
reet.. He had an harrassed look
and shouted to me as I approa-
ched, "What you doing at your
house, running a contest of
some sort?"
It appeared that most of his
burden was for me, Cards from
readers of the Vagabond, resi-
dent ,all over Canada, from
one coast to the other. The
expressions for good fortime
and continued inspiration for
the column in the • New Year
were most gratifying. But per-
haps more so were the various
comments on the type of cob
urnn each well-wisher prefer-
red. There were cards which
requested more about the three
bairns (now four), my house
and antique yen, Buffy the kit.
ten and my escapades, about
which one nice person wrote,
"we all have them, but few of
us realize there is material for
a funny story in the exper-
ience."
All writers like to feel they
have a mission, that their Writ-
ing efforts contribute' someth-
ing to the reader's pleasure.
Comments such as this one
written on a card picturing a
train laden With good wishes
mean stich ,a lot. "Write mere
travelogues. All of our family
has learned so Much about
Canada. through your column,
We are all becoming very train
travel Conscioug."
New Friend Found
But the biggest surprise of
all was a letter from Bale
Comeau, Quebec. The world
shrank several more inches as
I read, "Through your columns
'Diary of a Vagabond', I have
come to know you — you've
talked about your antiques,
your recently adopted kitten
'Buffy', your garden and plants,
your sons and loved ones, some
of the interesting pleople you've
met, the places you've visited,
not to mention the many his-
torical angles in your adven-
tures across Canada. You seem
to have a wonderful ueder-
standing of people. And didn't
you cover the Queen's visit
across Canada a couple of years
ago?"
This (until now) young, un-
known woman has read the
colemn in a New Brunswick
weekly since it was created in
1959. Born 22 years ago and
raised in Bale Comeau, she will
venture into the big outside
world at my invitation to be
my guest for the winter. Ambi-
tious and talented she plane an
advanced secretarial course.
Actually I am the one who will
benefit. Never having had a
daughter, I am excited at the
prospect af this companionship.
Appeal For All Ages
Another satisfying letter was
one forwarded to me through
the editor of the Sheibourne
Coast Guard. It Was from a
woman who, at the date of
writing ,had celebrated 90 birth-
days. In the letter she was'
requesting back copies of the
Diary of a Vagabond and in-
tuitively remarked, "I've' been

Mrs. Barker's column, who I
think must have been a weekly
editor in her younger days".
Not so much younger, my dear
lady, the memory of that excit-
ing period in my life is still
very vivid. Her letter made the
New Year and my stint of a
column each week worthwhile
for in commenting on past
columns she remarked, "she
saw so much of nature, the
many colored trees, lakes 'big
and , small, mauntains, etc.,
etc. — I'm a nature lover and
watch from my window. My
hospital bed is wheeled' over to
the window each day . . .."
Poor tired postman, if • he
only knew what joy he carried
for me in his, canvas pouch on
that blustery day as the year
faded. And now as this twelve
months of 1962 gets away to
a fresh, new start I'd like to
wish editors of all weeklies in
Canada 'and their readers, pros-
perity and much peace of mind.
My ambition is, that my con-
tribution to their reading plea-
sure will continue to measure
up to their expectations.

national product declined from
$1,481 per capita in 1956 to
