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.
