LYCErraE ATRE t oetia it Going d some very good cake. I enjoy- Going home f Started thinking about Tom and his wife. Neither of them' have ever taken any long trips. They went to Niagara Falls on their wedding-trip, Mrs, White still treasures the picture postc%rds Tom bought her at the Falls. Their life is bound up .elose. ly with the township and the people who, live in it. Their wedding anni- versary was quiet and friendly, Most people Jiving in big ,cities would think that Tom and his wife had lived a pretty dull life. I wonder if it's such a dull life after all, when you live like Tom White and his wife, They've never been at a cocktail party but they've often had folks in for.a. chat and a cup of tea, They've never seen the sun rise and set on ro- mantic places you read about in books and magazines but they've had a lot' of compensations, Torn still gets rip early in the morn- ing and starts the fire in the kitchen range about sunup time and then goes out 'on the back porch for a smoke, He watches the sun come up and hear's the little village come to life and then goes down after the mail train gets in for the morning paper, He told me the other day that he can't get out of. the habit of getting imp early. He does- n't have to get up but lie gets a 'thrill out 9f seeing the day start. Toni 'and his wife khow what it is like to sit on the verandah and listen to the Crickets on a warm summer ev- ening. They often take a walk out past the edge of the village in the spring just to hear the frogs croaking away in the mill pond, Life is peaceful and quiet for Tom and his wife, It is eventful too, They Were like a pair of kids ;with a new toy when they showed those pictures' the other day of their latest grandchild. They haven't lost the thing they start- ed out with.

There were a few folks around-when I called. They were mostly older folks like Tom and wife, who are living retired in the village. It was a friend- ly, pleasant half hour that I spent with them. There were a lot of reminiscen- ces exchanged and Tom ,quizzed me about the work around the farm, A re- tired farmer is always like that.
