They've been coming, each summer, since they were babies, first with their parents, and then, as they grew more adven- turesome, by then elves. They've always preferred to come separately, but this year, their father declared they would come together since we'd all had enough of running back and forth, fet- ching and returning them. This parental proclamation brought howls of anguish from Heather, who at this point in her life, 'hates' her lit- tle brother who she was sure would "bug her to death and spoil her holiday completely". Duncan, taking his cue from big sister, groaned loudly that it wouldn't exactly thrill him to have her "bossing him around all the time." Nevertheless, their father held firm, so, they arrived together, complete with numerous bags, tennis rackets, Walkman radios, ghetto blasters and all their tapes of Michael Jackson, Boy George, The Eagles, etc. Our appreciation of music may not have been improved but it certainly was broaden- ed. Interestingly, Duncan had a few old tapes of Elivs Presley and we were astonished how gentle and mild he sounded in com- parison with most of today's singers. The days passed by happi- ly enough. Oh, there was the odd confrontation, the occas- sional skirmish, but no outright bloody battles. Both kids love to play the old games that are stacked high in the basement closet...games their mother, uncles and aunt played when they were all children...Around the World, Flinch, Monopoly, and others. So, many hours were whiled away with them. Heather got some tennis lessons on the court with her grandfather, and Duncan had his first experience of sleep- ing out in the bush. The gul- ly, which runs along the back of our property is a wonderful place to explore, and it was on one of his 'wanderings' that Duncan, surprisingly, came face to face with another boy who was also exploring. He turned out to be Steve, a red- haired Amercian lad, staying just a short way up the beach from us. Anyway, he and Duncan GIVEN BOOKS Two recent gift books received at Exeter Branch Library will be of interest to area genealogy buffs. The first is called "Exeter and Area: Births, Deaths, Mar- riages'. It is essentially a list of the above arranged alphabetically, and covers a 20 -year period from 1873 to 1893. Interesting facts include the unfortunate method of demise in some cases. This book was donated by the author, Mona J. Aitken, London. The second volume Is "ft History of the Monteiths" by J.E. Monteith, subtitled "Monteiths and Monteith descendants revised." This book was donated by Mr. and Mrs. Allan C. Monteith of West Bloomfield, Michigan. It is a very comprehensive history of the Monteith fami- ly. A quick scan of the book reveals familiar area names such as Kydd, Parsons, Passmore and Shapton. Both books are at present being kept in the reference section for use in the library. Block or Ton Smyth's sfiOE STORE LTD. MAIN ST.

Duncan wap so excited and keyed up, we had difficulty controlling him to wait another night until his uncle could deliver a down filled sleeping bag to guard against the cold night air. it for a most wonderful adventures. Next morning, a light rain brought them scurrying up from their hideaway, bleary- eyed and plastered with in- sect bites. Duncan, declaring proudly that he hadn't slept a wink, tumbled exhausted in - of to his bed for the next seven hours. When he finally came to life again, he rushed out to see Steve who was still hang- ing about. A few minutes later, he stormed back in like a black thunder cloud. "I should have known it," he bawled, "Steve has fallen in love with Heather, and now, he's HER friend. He's even let her see our 'secret fort ! " This was just too much, and try as we did, we couldn't con- vinc* him they could all be friends. So, it was lucky that Steve left for home, later that day, or we might have had a nasty incident. Duncan is the one, who when he was five, I reprimanded for complaining about my cooking, telling him he should expect a change when he was holidaying. His terse reply was, "Grandma, I came here to change my people not my food!" Well, now, he thinks my food is ter- rific but there's no filling him up. When he wasn't down in the gully or swimming in the Lake, his chief occupation was hanging on the fridge door, demanding, "What's there to eat in this house?" Heather wasn't much bet- ter, despite the fact she told us she was on a diet and wat- ching her figure. She could smell out the cookie tin no matter where I hid it...in the bottom drawer under the tea towels, or on the top shelf, behind the punch bowl.
