(�0Up.n C tit rlc e So little old England has Church- ill back in No. 10 once again. I need hardly say how glad we are, Thursday night and Friday morn- ing were certainly exciting times - and of course we had the radio on all the time. Maybe it isn't every- one's viewpoint but we feel that just to see Churchill's picture in the paper or to hear his voice on the radio inspires one with new hope and confidence. And somehow or other we don't think of the party in power as a Conservative govern- ment but as a Churchill govern- ment. In this case we think of the mail ahead of the party. Certainly the Egyptian trouble- makers are not happy about the result of the British Election -and I expect Joe Stalin has his secret qualms. There is, however, one thing that bothers me -there have been war rumours floating around for so long and now if there should he another outbreak of hostilities, these will doubtless be many thoughtless millions who will be ready to blame it bu Churchill. Well, it looks as if our Royal Couple are on tour again and ap- parently getting a little fun out of it too. There was a little touch at Nana;nlo that I liked better than anything yet. When Elizabeth and Philip were leaving the children started lustily singing "So long, it's bee)) nice to know you , , , but we've got to be drifting along!" No doubt it was rehearsed, but it was nice anyway -more Canadianish Man some of the affairs. We have beet) awfully busy around home this last week -but not too busy to keep one ear to the radio as you can tell, A young fel- low was here several days doing some repair work in the stable. Then came Friday -lovely blue sky after several days drizzle -a good clay to wash. So I washed. In the middle of thins our car was brought back from the garage after being checked and winterized. That meant shutting off the washing ma- chine and tatting the ntan back to town, By having a late dinner I fin- nally managed to get the washing on the line, While we were still at dinner along caste our handy -man again -he just does odd jobs in his spare time. Right behind him came the thresher to combine the clover, Bath of them needed help so Part- ner was kept busy running from one to the other. Then a neighbor came along with his fanning mill -to set it up so we could clean the clover as soon as we were ready, About 5;30 1 was called to the field to hold bags while the men emptied the hopper. That took quite awhile. And then a rush supper while Part- ner did the milking. Saturday forenoon nothing for dinner and a pie to send to our W.I. auction sale booth ... a trip to town was a necessity. In the afternoon clover again - but this time when one field was nearly fin- ished' and bag -filling in progress, son Bob blew in -so he promptly fell heir to the bagging -up job, while Partner and I sat down to a nice, quiet cup of tea. Who says everything is so quiet in the coun- try? Yesterday -Sunday -I was some- what under the weather -and of course Partner was very tired. We can deal with ordinary, everyday 'cork but when too meth comes at one tone it has a way of getthig no down -temporarily, of course. 'Too much at one time is often the way of things on a farm. We have to work with the weather and during 8 wet spell jobs have a way of sneaking up on us.

My goodness, I mustn't complete this column without mentioning one more startling bit of news -the fact of Joe Louis being knocked out, Which doesn't mean I am addicted to watching prize -fights -1 wouldn't go to one if I were paid to. But I ant interested in the result when it conies to a championship. Part- ner, of course, was quite excited. Now wouldn't I be a poor kind of wife if I didn't take a little interest in what interests hint? The sauce applies to hockey -although I must confess I don't have too much diffi- culty in working up a bit of en- thusiattis in that direction, Who woui 1, when Foster Hewitt gets on the air? Just try dropping off to sleep and 'He shoots! He scores" brings you back from the land of dreams in a hurry, EVERYBODY HAPPY Two Chinese, Chung and Yung, arriving in Canada about the same time, set up restaurants side by side. Both did quite well, but each was troubled about the amount of business he was losing to die other. At length, when the two compe- titors could endure the''silttation no longer, they met and discussed how they might operate their respective establishments in peace and con- tentment, "You manage my restaurant," Chung filially suggested, "while I manage yours." The idea proving mutually agree- able, each man tools over the man- agement of the other's business; and after that, was perfectly happy' to see patrons enter the restaurant next door.
