PHIL INFER OF LAZY MEADOWS By Harry J. Boyle I have always been fascinated by !the sound of trains. We were drawing in hay from the east field on a blister- ing hot clay. The hired man stopped in the act of gathering up the remains of a coil and stood listening to the sound of the whistle. 1 started watch- ing too. We heard the fast express thundering down over the edge of the valley and saw the plumed bonnet of smoke of the engine, In a matter of seconds „the long train, looking like an enormous snake, slipped along be- side the river and with a disdainful toot for the cross at the station in the village it vanished. This was the Fast Express. The hired nick said almost wistfully, "Just think of sitting in One of those air-conditioned cars with a porter to bring you an iced drink and .anything you want at your command." He stood watching for several more minutes at the spot where the trait] had disappear- ed and then with a shrug, of his slioul- ers his fork went into the remains of the pile of hay. "The. air conditioning may not be working," lie laughed, "And even at that bet you half the people on that train have more worries than we have." Trains have many different sounds. Personally, I like the fat and good .nat.- tired throatiness of the old freights. You hear the engine pounding up the grade, and then relax a little ott the downgrade into the valley. It clunks along the roadbed beside the river and comes to a shuddering stop at the yil- lage. The freight stops everywhere in a good, democratic way. It disgorges boxes and barrels and parcels and tak- es on in return cans of cream and cases of eggs and ears of livestock and goes away with the load to another station, coming back finally to the city with the produce which it has exchang- ed for the products of a thousan farms. Trains have a lonely south] in win- tertime. You hear the mouthful sound Of the whistle as the train comes up over the grade with the snow .and ice and the frost bearing clown on it. It Almost sounds as if with each grade the old monster is looking fora nice, warm roundhouse to climb into as an escape from the wintry elements. We hear the fast train going through in the middle of the night, snuggle clown in our warm beds and be thank- ful of where we are, I will admit how- ever that on a hot day in the hayfield, the thought • of the air-conditioned cars turns the advantage around.. WESTFIELD East McVittie Baskets of gladioli, ferns and mums and lighted candles formed a lovely setting at the home of Mr. and. Mrs. Wm, McVittie, 3rd concession of East Wawanosh, for the wedding of their youngest daughter, Verna Roberta and William East, son of Mr, and Mrs. Charles East of the Auburn Road. Rev. Harold Snell of Exeter, performed the ceremony beneath an arch centred with a white bell. Given in marriage by her father, the bride was gowned in a fall shade of green satin with grey accessories, and wearing a shoulderettee of Briarcliffe roses tied with white ribbon, with a headdress of pink roses, Her orna- ment was three strands of pearls, the gift of the groom. 1 She was attended by her sister, Miss Dorothy McVittie, who wore a dress of brown crepe and satin with a shoulderette of bronze roses and bronze ribbon with match- ing headdress, Best man was Ted East, brother of the groom. The guests were received by the bride's mother, who chose a wine crepe gown with a corsage of white and pink baby mums. The groom's mother wore a moss green crepe with a cor- sage of white and pink mums. For the *edding breakfast the din- ingroom was decorated with white and yellow streamers. The bride's table was centred with the wedding cake with white and yellow candles in sil- ver holders.
