This contains the letters I have received from those splendid, intelligent people who admire my wife or kids or column. Yes, I know they should be thrown out. But surely you wouldn't deny a chap a little ointment for his ego, any more than you would begrudge an old lady a seat in the chimney cor- ner, where the fire can warm her. The piles beside the typewriter are now only a foot and a half high, and it has taken a day and a half to sort them. This may not seem like progress to you, but Rome wasn't built in a day, as some idiot once remarked, One good thing came out of this year's sorting, I remembered that I had received a letter from Barry Broadfoot, author of Ten Lost Years, a compelling book about the depression. I'd written a column about it. No, I couldn't find his letter. It must have wandered into the Miscellaneous or somewhere. But the memory of his letter made me remember that I'd had at least ten letters from all over the country, and the States, asking where a copy might be obtained. No, I couldn't find these letters either. But the memory of them reminded me of what Barry Broadfoot wrote in his letter. He's writing another book called The Pioneer Years, and he wondered if I would ask in my column for the names of old- timers who were spry and in- teresting, so that he could in- terview them, So there you are, everybody. Send the names of spry, in- teresting oldtimers, of either sex, to Barry Broadfoot, care of Doubleday Publishers, 105 Bond St., Toronto, Ont. M5B LY3. And the same people will be happy to provide you with a copy of Ten Lost Years. There, My first good deed of 1975. And that's going to cost you, Brother Broadfoot.

BATT'N AROUND — Continued from Page 4 . over a rather deep ditch. It was here that we realized that stopping on skis is not an easy task. We finally took the easy way out and merely sat down. That is the type of thing bruises are made of! However, we finally made it to our destination and even com- pleted the long haul back, although a couple of residents on Pryde Boulevard no doubt are still chuckling about the spill we took as we progressed along that track. That's the type of thing humility and embarrassment are made of! All in all, cross country skiing is a great sport and judging from our aching muscles, it is a real physical test. We expect to he over our in- juries in time to attempt at least one more outing some time in though! Alarch.
