It gladdened the hearts of skiers, snowreobilee teleoggere and 'snowshoe fans, to say nothing of the children with their snovitialling and sled% Nearly everyone in the distriet Wants snow for Christmas, but will it stay? Will the children he able to build snowmen? No 'Queer do the Young folk have the joy of going out and cutting a cedar on some back street for Christmas and hauling it home on a sled. Trees on the village streets have all become precious property since Lucy went out to select the most perfect tree she could rind some 55 years ago. Even then she was not allowed to cut one on the street but Mips Emily Osmond gave her permission to get one from her swamp. One was tired after cutting and hauling home a • tree but there was a feeling of 'accomplishment; of having contributed to the enjoyment of Christmas. In a sense we children gave and did not look for too much, One gift from "Santa Claus" on Christmas morning delighted the "young fry" of the village as much if not more than all the expensive gifts showered on children, today on Christ's birthday. Times have changed, As in the city, so in rural parts most of the Christmas trees are a commercial product. Now a team of horses hitched to a sleigh with bells jingling is an uncommon sight on the roads. Carl recalled to Lucy an event about 15 or 20 years ago when he was meeting a snow plough on the Clinton road about the vicinity of H. 1430 and Sons Ltd. He was driving his farm team hitched to a farm sleigh. The horses took fright at meeting a snow plough and Carl was having trouble to hold them. Then the operator of the snow plough stepped out on the road, and as soon as the horses saw the man, they became calm and went past the plough without any hesitation. He also remembered driving the same team along towards the overhead railway bridge. They were stepping out lively when Carl heard a clicking noise and was looking over the side of the,sleigh to see if by any chance a branch off a tree had caught in the runner. As he approached the overhead bridge, a movement made him look up. It was the- London, Huron and Bruce train which was making the clicking noise and alerting the horses, but they, went under it. Now bothsleighs drawn by horses and the train have been relegated to the past as means of transportation! The chop which farmers need for feeding if they haven't their own mill is hauled by trailer or truck. Once, before Elliot's hill on the Clinton road was cut down, Carl was hauling home a load of chop on the sleigh. As be neared the steep ascent at the top of the hill, something made him look around and he saw that three bags of chop had rolled off_the sleigh. On Friday afternoon nine and one half inches of snow lay on a table outside the dining room window at "The Hut". Old man cardinal has been coming each,evening to the feeder. One night Carl hadn't put out the sunflower seeds. He went immediately to get some when he saw the bird looking at the house. As he went out the door Mr. Cardinal flew overhead to the river bank. Carl whistled, and as he entered the house again, the cardinal was feasting. Also at the station lately, have been red breasted ,and white breasted nuthatches as well as chickadees and various sparrows. Recently the hairy woodpecker has joined the downy woodpeckers at the suet station. Pat Graham reports evening grosbeaks at his place but has quite a time keeping the squirrels from eating the nuts, etc. which he puts out.
