in this book. Here area few of them.
."He used Salve Like Women

The only fault I could find was that
he seemed to have crowded his book
a bit, Maybe that comes from city liv-
ing. If, he had time to be more con-
templative it would have been a little
smoother, All in all, I liked the book,

There was one spot that tickled my
fancy. Cragg was writing about a hir-
ed man who was called Uncle Pete
who had the habit of drying his socks
on the oven door. This character was
just one of those people who stayed
for spells, being a distant relative of
his mother.
Cragg says that his mother used to
explain this family relationship with a
little laugh saying that her grandfath-
er and a great uncle of Pete's had one
time traded roosters in the backyard.
Cragg goes on to say "Even this fam-
ily connection had no mollifying effect
on her when Uncle Pete put his socks
on the hot oven door. As is widely-
known, socks that have spent a whole
day in rubber boots with tightly laced
leather tops, have lost some of their
freshness, a fact not unnoticed by
mother when they were warmed up by
oven heat.
Each time a clatter of angry words
would beat about Uncle Pete's head,
and unless he was fast, mother would
have the woodshed door open and the
Brown one each, Fordwich now heads
their group with 7 points. Mildmay 0,
Gorriv 5, Ayton and Moltke 2 each.

PHIL OSIFER OF
LAZY MEADOWS
By Harry J. Boyle
Books are often a bit of a luxury
here at Lazy Meadows but some kind
soul at Longmans, Green in Toronto
sent me along a copy of a new one by
Kenneth Cragg. I've been seeing his
came in the morning paper for a long
time now and it's mostly been over
the top of stories about politics and
things that are happening in Ottawa.
This book is called FATHER ON
THE FARM and it concerns Mr.
Cragg's father and the events that
transpired on their farm near Dray-
ton, in Wellington County. In places
this is one of the best reading books
that I've come upon in a long time. It
hasn't the polish and the background
that the late Peter MacArthur put intro,
his writing but it does have some won-
derful touches.
