During that time I ehop, eat, have a bath and take a short • walk in the park: Then I hurry back to bed," He says, he. doesn't sleep all the :time.; He reads, listens to the radio as he lies in his com- fortable bed on the top floor, of a tmoclern block of flats. He has no telephone, because he thinks that ;night tempt -him lb "alter the regular rhythm" of his life and spend less time in bed. This man's passion for bed is paralleled by thit•of M. Halloine a Justice of the Peace in Caen, Normandy, who about 120 years ago included this strange in- struction in his will: "Bury me in my bed. Leave me just as Yo,u found me when I died, but tuck me in and see that my pil- low is comfortable and that the sheets are straight. And bury me at night, please. I've loved my bed more than anything, else in this, life and I'd like to go to my everlasting rest in it." The villagers were riot sur- prised when they 'heard of his request. They recalled that his love for his bed had sometimes led him as a magistrate to pass sentence from it, -His bedroom became his courtroom and Of- fenders Were brought before him 'there for trial. But when the authorities heard how jus- tice was being dispensed — by a nian sprawled deep in e fea- ther mattrese, his head support- ed' by pillbWs—they relieVed hitri of his post.

Perhaps the .most • 'disquieting thing about the whole business is 'contained in the warning that, "it is a situation we must learn to live with fore-several years,' Yes, there is reason for wor- ry and for every precaution to be taken — that is, by seeing to it that our dogs are vaccin- ated, against the disease and by - warning children not to pet strange dogs. And how thankful we should be that vaccination is possible — thanks to the dan- gerous 'and •untiring ' research work carried .out by Louis Pas- teur many years, ago.

On the other side 'of the pic- ture this rabies scare may have one good effect ,--, there will probably be fewer stray dogs around and thisse Who do keep dogs will be more particular about having "them under con- - tr91, or lose their pees. Pee- haps, - too, f ewer people will want to keep dogs at •all: Rabies is a disease we have always had to cent end ,with, but I doubt if there was ever a time in history when the dog popu- lation was as great as it is to- day. • Well, quite apart- • from .•the rabies scare, there has been plenty of excitement around here just. lately. Three farms in our immediate vicinity have been sold, which, sort of leaves us, sitting in 'the middle — from choicei. not necessity, The Way farms are selling these days snakes a person almost dizzy,;. That is, when they AU sold. In some cases speculators come along,, take an option on a farm and leave the fernier hopefully sitting there, Then comes an- other 'f elle w, offers a better price with a good diewn pay,- ment, which the farmee cannot accept because he ie• already fled up with an option, There are so many snags in, land deals that no one should accept the first offer that comes along, nor sign any agreement without the advice of a good lawyer. We *also hear of farmers keep- ing their farms but selling their milk cows • because of the short- age of help. We wonder where it is all going to end. Well, spring is in the air. Last week I mentioned, seeing one crow, now there aresivhele fam ilies of crows flying around, And the redwoods in the swamp are getting a deeper colour and the roads have started their usual break-up.
