PHIL OSIFER OF
LAZY MEADOWS
By Harry J. Boyle
, “HOSPITAL”
I write this from bed. It seems
that the medical authorities and pow
ers that be, decided that I should be
bundled up and then taken hither and
yon for attention. I have my suspic
ions that Mrs. Phil, withz an unindust-
rious hired man and^the Spring work
on her hands may have the faintest
suspicion that this was a convenient
way out of having all the work.
I reclined in ease during the first
day, and having bribed a nurse into
bringing my old briar in, decided to
befoul. the atmosphere with the es
sence of tobacco smoke. After three
mours of smoking, my pipe gave me
a sore tongue. I then perused the
newspaper from back to back, and all
advertisements . . and also the society
pages.
After that I started watching the
clock, and relishing the idea of a big
meal. The hands crept around with
maddening slowness. At last the time
came ahd the nurse came in with a
tray covered over by a great white
cloth. Certainly, there must be a
marvel of cooking under that cloth
, , , and my mouth begins to water
at the prospect. It takes her an et
ernity of time to set the tray up ac
ross my bed, and then when she does
unveil the tray, it discloses nothing
more appetizing than a bowl of weak
soup, a few biscuits arid a glass of
watery orange juice, I was so con
founded angry that I let go with a
few choice adjectives that were to say
the least, highly descriptive. And the
nurse spoke in such a soothing, sweet
way with a smile that would do jus
tice to an advertisement for gum.
Supper over, I braved having an
other sore tongue and brptight out
the. pipe once more, •
The smoke over I set down the
pipe and decided to sleep. But some
how sleep didn’t Come so easily, Af
ter tossing back and forth for a few
times I decided that my wanting of
sleep had been satisfied by my rest
during the afternoon. Nine o’clock
came and the nurse -came padding in
to turn my light off, and explain if
I needed anybody to pull On the cord
by the side of the head of the bed.
Silenee came over the building!
Not the comforting sort of silence
that settles over Lassy Meadows on

a warm spring evening. No, this was
the kind of silence that smelled of
chloroform and sickness. In place of
the low sound of the cattle and the
frogs in the pond, there was the
sound of people moaning and traffic
from away down in the city. Some
body squishes by the door on soft-
soled shose, and pads away down the
hall.
I shut my eyes and roll over on
the left side and decide that I will go
to sleep. No! Well, I’ll try the -oth
er side. That pillow is getting awful
hot. I fuss around with the pillow
and turn it over and have a great time
punching it.
The clock strikes . . . one, two and
up to nine . , , it must be at least
twelve o’clock. Ten! Now, that’s
strange, I felt certain that it would
be a whole lot later than that.
Now, if we plow up that south field
and I plant . . . oh, gosh, a man can’t
sleep in a place like this. Why, that
old clock on our dresser has been
lulling me off to sleep for ages!
There isn’t a comforting noise in this
whole building.
I wonder how that hired man is
getting on with the seeding. I’ll bet
nothing will be done right. Now, if
I was only there to show him how to
‘manage that colt. Never been hitch
ed before and the darned beast is like
ly to run away and kill that man, or
else smash all the machinery that I
own . . . Half-past ten! Now I was
sure it would be at least half-past el
even. 1

LETTER FROM
THE WEST
Mr. Mac Ross,
R.R. 5, Lucknow,
Dear Friend:—
We wish to extend our greatest
thanks and appreciation to one and
all in your community for the veget
ables, etc. you all so willingly gave,
This is the first year we have ever
'had’ anything sent in, as there has
nearly always been enough. Believe
me, it was a blessing to see those
things come into the house and know
that, one didn’t have to worry about
where the money was coming from
to pay for them.
You will wonder why your note
was not answered sooner but we nev
er took the potatoes out of the bag
and we came across your note the
other'day.
You ask how things are out here.
It has been a hard winter here for
everyone. We are all on relief for
the first time. Of course there has
always been the odd one on relief but
this year I feel safe in saying we are
100% on relief. Relief groceries are
not too bad but when one has to wait
on th(f feed for one’s stock from the
lb.19
municipality it’s not very nice. Other
years there has always,been enough
feed anyway.
What are the sizes of your farms
down there? We had thought of go
ing to Ontario this spring but decid
ed to wait. Are you near Foleyet, if
so what’s it like? We saw in the pa
per that there were homesteads there.
I hope you will pass our thanks on
to others near you who were so kind
to help, and everything received in
this district was greatly appreciated.
This car came to Bredenbury.
God bless you one and all.
M. O. Berg.
