In solemn horseshoe forma

Spirit Of Monday
There’s not much by
weather, politics, world
emergencies that can hold back
Exeter housewives on a
morning.
Even this week, with

in cold
__ „ it wasn’t
long after S a.m. before the local
band of squeeking pulleys began
issuing forth the reluctant limp
clothes.
Wind Fight
They breathed their steaming
objections to the cold for a time
and once together, joined by the
rows of pins, they took up the
wind's game. They slapped back
at the onslaught until, stiff with
frost-fatigue, they gave up the
battle and held on for dear life.
By the time we had our wash
ing ready to hang, the mops of
the neighborhood were already
banging beside back doors, dust
was flying from rugs and we
didn’t linger long to regret our
usual late entrance on the scene.
No Wasted Words
No one lingered long in that
wind! A few hurried remarks
were passed between back doors
hut it was a far cry from the
conversations that the warm sun
encouraged last week. Even the
black cat couldn't tear himself
away from the sheltered corner
long enough to attack the usual
ly tempting shirt sleeves.
Mission Completed
In spite of early morning
numb fingers and more numb
fingers that the day promised
when the time came to take the
frozen clothes from the lines—
in spite of the struggle in the
wind to unwind the tangled
mass of sheets and towels—in
spite of the most wicked tricks
of March, Exeter housewives
didn’t deny that ruling Monday-
morning urge. They got
washing dene and hung!
