Holidays more fun
The last days of summer
holidays were spent with our
grandchildren, Heather, 13,
and Duncan, 10. 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.

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.

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-

us she was on a diet and wat-
