I was just thinking as I sat here in
the kitchen rocking chair with the sun
of a Spring day streaming in, and
warming the blood in my veins, of the

have in a lifetime.

up after the deal in Zeb Burk's Em
porium where after imbibing in a
drink or two to close the deal, the
company men gave father passes for
any member of.his family to ride any
where on the line during the period
of a year, The pass was used a few
times by my father and. mother, and
then came the time when the pass
ailroad ran across otfr wild
on the next concession. Af-
of palavering between the
men and my father, they

Spring Stock show in the

a two-year-old colt, that I
constantly grooming ever
had been able, to wobble
would expire in about a month. After
dint of some real hard perspading I
was allowed to take the pass and go
down to my Uncle Oscar’s in the
city. Never shall I forget that day
when I proudly presented that pass
to the conductor. I tried to be as cas
ual as possible. . . . just one of the
directors of the company, going for
a little ride down to the city. Well,
1 may have looked ridiculous but it
sure felt good.

since he
along on his logs. My heart and soul
was in that colt, and I spent every
available minute of my time in groom
ing and admiring McGrogan, as he
was called. Then came the blare of
the bands and the hurly-burly of the
show in the County Town. For hours
I wandered around the horse show,
feeling more downcast because I was
sure that the judges wouldn’t notice
what a fine beast McGrogan was. A
man whispered near me . . . “These
things arc fixed. You can’t win?’ You
know, I nearly cried that day, and
then came the moment when the judg
es pinned the ribbon proclaiming Mc
Grogan as the winner. I couldn’t hold
myself and let out a war-wlmop you
could hear in the" next county. It was
a great feeling.
Not to be left out was that day
when wc paid off our first mortgage.
Mother and I, that is, Mrs. Phil and

there in Lawyer Fentwick’s office the
deal was closed. The mortgage was.
back in our hands again, and it seem
ed as if we couldn’t make ourselves
believe it to be possible. There it was
. . . years of-hard work and doing
without this and that, and the other .
things that we wanted. True, we did
not have a car, and our clothes were
sort of shabby . . . but we owned a
farm and that was really something.
We owned that one hundred acres of
land, and it belong every bit to us.
We dined in state that day, a real
blowout at the best hotel in the town,
and, the waiter must have thought us
a little touched in the head. But it
was a grand feeling.
Every day on a farm you have a
feeling of well being. The life is, af
ter all, a simple one, but it’s healthy
and you can’t help but enjoy it. It
may be only to watch a colt jumping
at his kick, or a calf enjoying an ev
ening meal, or to go in and find some
pullets’ egg in the nests in the hen
house. There are feelings like watch
ing a field of wheat change from
waving green to shining gold. Maybe
it’s to sit beside an open fire in the
back woods, aud watch the operations
of “sugaring off”. The taste of taffy
pulled and cooled on a patch of snow
in the bush.
Sometimes the grand feelings come
from sitting in front of a warm fire
and curling your toes inside woollen
socks. Or it may be that feeling of
floating in a feather-tick when you
lay down to rest, tired out from hard
physical labour.
Right now my grand feeling comes
as I lazy away a noon hour and feel
the strength in the rays of Old Sol.
That sun is going to warm up the
earth and soon you’ll feel the smell
of earth in your nostrils . . . and the
spirit of growing things.
