Pttrkhi’l Guzmt. 1 Johnnie slept real well alter en­ joying the lovely pi-ni at Tie park, and Alien he came downstairs to his breakfast, he was fairly bubbling over with good nature. He told his Mother ’hat he loved everybody. Daddy was Tie best man in the world, he bond his Mother a whole laurel full and he won’t d to be a aec.d hoy ail the time so that every­ body would love him. Then Johnnie’s Mother sat down on the sofa with him and told him how much she loved her little boy and hoped that lie would always he happy. Johnnie kept quiet all the while his Mother was talking, hut he was Clinking and wondering if he were doing very much for his Mother and all the o’her people he loved. Then suddenly he thought of his snow shovel, and what he had done for the old lady. He ad made her happy and he wanted to do some kind act before the end ot the day so 1hat someone else would be made happy also. So he put on his hat and was just going out of the door to find something to do when it began to rain real hard, and Johnnie was just hanging up his hut again when all at ome he thought of his Dad­ dy’s workroom in the basement. It was a large room where his Daddy kept his saws and hammers, chisels, screwdrivers, and oh everything he needed for making all sorts of things, for Daddy was a handy man and could make floor lamps and stools and I believe he t oil’d even make a phonograph. Johnnie liked to work with tools, ’o<>. ami very often he tried to make lire- and a ns, but Im had a bad Iu>'iiT of no* putting awr.y ’he tools a was ’hrouah wi’h them. So hr- mad- up his mind rmh* then tha’ !’■ would an down into ’he buse- n < ii’ .-nd ■•han :lp the whole room ■ i. I put a’! the tools in their places ami surprise Daddy. So the first thing he did was to pick up the saw and huuu u in its own place. And he did ’ll- same with ’he other tools. After ahoir ’wo ho rs of v-.v haul work. Johnnie had th-1 whole loom pu’ in order, ami when •he dinner was served at six o’clock and Hie whole family had sat down *<> the table. Johnnie's Father said, "w II Johnnie what did you do to­ day while it was raining and you couldn’t play outside?” “Well. Daddy, just you come and see.’’ “Oh. wait until you get your dinner,” said his Mama. But John­ nie couldn’t wait so he and his Daddy went down into the basement and when Johnnie’s Father saw how clean and neat the room was he just laughed and said, “You’ll be a better man than your Dad.” And I believe he will, for Johnnie is trying to do everything that is right. He never goes where his Mother tells him not to go, and he always smiles and says please and ’hank you when he should. And if Johnnie’s Uncle comes to visit him from away down south. I’ll tell you all about it in my next letter. W. Horney Misses Beth Edworthy. Irma Ferguson and Mr. Arnold Gackstetter attended Decoration services at St. James Cemetery, Clandeboye on Sunday.

And once on, speed is the essence of success—for delay may be costly to the farmer. Heavy crops in down and tangled condi­ tion give rise to problems in harvesting methods and equipment operations and throw excessive strains on much worn parts of old, reliable machines. It is then that the farmer appreciates the real value of farm machine service as rendered by Massey-Harris. Competent men with experience in field problems and service that takes years to acquire, and a system that provides for the ready availability of parts for any of its machines, no matter how old, so as to avoid costly delays, are what have earned forMassey-Harristheenviable reputation which it has long enjoyed as— “THE SERVICE ARM OF THE CANADIAN FARM."
