(Photo by Audrey Beilchamber) Seniors at Bayfield Plan Their First Dinner Meeting Rambling With Lucy (Lucy R. Woods) White Luoy's spouse is busy getting ell the outside chores done before winter sets in, 'his niece, MiSs Margaret Durham is enduring quite a different climate in Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia, The following excerpts are from letters written: by her to "Aunt Lucy and Uncle Carr': "14 September, 1965. "We have gotten well settled into our little flat which we share with various sand flies, mosquitoes, frogs arid geckos oh yes and • a mouse. The frogs are the most disturbing. Though we've only had one at a time as yet, they Make the most frightening squawking noise as I poke them with the bream. The gecko is harmless and rather an intereSting little lizard-dike creature. The one we had walking up the stove was only about 'an inch long and almost transparent. "My job at Pollee Headquarters is quite good and very interesting. There are four other girls so it is nice to have scene female co-weekees for a change. In the government jobs here, employees get five weeks vacation per year, or ten weeks every two years plus fares paid to any capital city in Australia every two years, so of course most everyone waits two years. Two of the girls are stenos, so I shall be relieving there until December. "It is getting very hot now and everything is dry and dusty. There are na sidewalks and I noticed the neighbours planting a lawn by planting individual grass shoots. There seems to be lots of water available for watering lawns and it is greatly needed as there is. no rain during the dry season. No need to be concerned about the weather here — it's al- ways sunny. There have been occasional clouds the past few weeks and folks say the wet is going to start early this year. "The sun sets about 7:00 p.m. and the evenings never get any longer. The sun rises 'at 7 in 'the morning and es I leave for work at 7:30 'it is pretty hot by the time I arrive at eight. We quit :at four and that is very convenient. "There are a lot of Aboriginals around Darwin. In the city they appear to be pretty much integrated, "though on the reserves throughout the N.T. and the Centre, they still go Walkabout and live in .their primitive fashion—lieving in many cases little 'contact with white men. "There are a lot of missions, too, throughout Northern Australia where the 'blacks are protected, educated, or ex- ploited, as the case may be, but at least the government seems to 'be actively interested in integrating them. It will • be a long time before 'they reach the same level as the Maoris. ' "A few nights ago, I looked out the window and there was a wallaby grazing by the house. I have since seen one playing, about the street with the dogs and children so per- haps he is somebody's pet. The folks up above US have a beau- tiful Scotch collie who just came up recently in his winter coat and the heat seems to be just too much for him, as he hardly has energy enough to move. "25 October, 1965. "Thought I was going to get this' letter written at work but the heat got me 'and I just couldn't seem to concentrate, "It is very sultry and sticky now and apparently this is the most uncomfortable time, just before the "Wet" starts. It's bean a bit cloudy recently and occasionally a few drop's of rain fall but'nothing of any account, Sea wasps have been sighted in the sea, too, se we cannot go swimming there anymore. "The cockroaches and bugs are getting more numerous, tee, but the bug man finally came and sprayed the flat today so I hope that is the end of them for awhile. "We gat a bag of nice with weevils in it a, few clap e. eege and I Was quite horrified and rushed back to the store warn it, but the girl Said: 'Oh, they're all the same and that one isn't too bad. You just haVe to Wash the rice arid they, float to the surface.' So we did ,and I'm sure it was all the better for those extra pinteins. 'iWe recently bought a jar of dill pickles winch were gthite delioious, and it wasn't until a few days later that I realized they were made in Scarborough. There is also a full array of St. Williams jams and jellies in the Stores. About 5/ a jar they are. Seems like a funny thing to import to this connitry. "A couple 'of weeks ago we had a wild goose for te'a. The boys in the other flat are avid hunters and promised to bring one back of wed cook it. I'd nee= cooked one before, but we wrapped it in foil and it turned out pretty well. They Were going to bring us a, baby kangaroo, too, but just as well they dlidnq as weld have had to get a, baby sitter for it. "Work has been very slack the past two weeks. Crime seeinsl to have fallen: off tertilaly in the Northern Territory and the claMs seem very warm and long with nothing to do. I got through Pickwick Papers in two Weeks. Darwin has an exceptionally good library for such a sinall place, "I haven't encountered any snake§ as yet, 'but am Con- tinually on the lookout for there, There are lots of frilled lizards' about in the trees *NV, but I believe they are einte hare-doss, I watched one rushing 'across the highway a few days ago. He just got up eel his hind feet and off he went With hiS two-foot tail trailing along behind, "bid I tell yeti We were given some cashews recently? The ftuit grows on 'the end of the nut end has a reddish-yet- low skin, Ift is quite edible hnt I -didn't care far the sstell se didn't try attY.'
