LAUNDRY &..CLEANERS 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 interested for some thee in Clinton Pistols Win Match .On Stratford Range (By "AlAte147' Nhtei4eree) Clinton .Pietpl -Club .outshot eight Stratford marksmen in the range room at Epps sport :41.ipp last Thursday night, After a few practice targets were shot, the national match course got underway.

The Clinton club meets Han- over in Walkerton' for their second match meet on January 31. 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. In constant dollar or physical volume terms Canada's gross national product declined from $1,481 per capita in 1956 to $1,420 in 1959. Km "the Pep".
