PHIL ORR OF
LAZY MEADOWS
By Harry J. Boyle
I couldn't sleep very well the other
night. We had some folks in for a
game of euchre and a chat and there
was a midnight lunch that kept acting
up on me so that about three o'clock
in the morning, sleep was just impos-
sible.
I got up and prowled around
downstairs and read a bit and turned
the shortwave radio on and fiddled
with the different stations. Then with
a full pipe I went out to the back yard
and sat down in an old rocking chair
we keep out there for "summer set-
ting" as you might call it.
There's something very beautiful and
restful and very wonderful about the
middle of night in the country. It was
very dark and I had to sit there a long
time before I grew accustomed to it.
The collie came along as if to enquire
what on earth I was doing up at such
an unearthly hour. He lay down at
my feet.
The air was warm and sort of vel-
vety and it pressed in close, Away
across the river I could see a ear head-
light probing the darkness. The big
searchlight on the emergency air field
hear town streaking across the black
night. I could even see the headlights
of the freight that crept through the
valley. A light tame on in an up-
stairs room at one of the neighbors.
It was probably one of the youngsters
wanting a, drink or something.
The air was full of sound too, These
Were not the harsh sounds of day but
the soft and subdued sounds of the
night, The freight moaned a long,
low, mournful wail anti the wheels
thundered en the rails like summer
thunder a long way off, The irorses in
the pasture field •cropped at the grass
and the tinkle or a sheep bell told tile
that all Was Well with the flock.
A oar rattled along the road. The
sound of one ear in the middle of the
night is a Strange one, It was prob'
ably; yonng 'Mail of the neighborhood
going liana ate touttittgi full of the
*cams of love then again it
