A Woman's Viewpoint on This and That
By MBA
IF November wer' 'January or
February it could not have dished
out any more worse week end
weather than we in this district
have been subjected to this
month . Three nasty storms
in one month accompanied by as
much snow as we have in a whole
mild winter
• *' *
MAYBE we are a bit more con-
scious of the snow fall this year
because we have a lot of shogel-
ling to do . , , You might wonder
at that, living in an apartment
on the main street, where the
sidewalk is kept clear by the
Editor and Laurie . . . Ab, but
we have a back entrance, which
must, by needs, be kept fairly
clear, in order that we reach
our garbage pail . And that
entrance requires a pathway
over a roof top and down stains
at the side of the building . .
* * *
NOW, we wouldn't mind it if
the snow would be reasonable
and fall justa few inches at a
time .. ;But no, we go to bed
of an evening, with the' roof nice
and clear of snow, and wake up
to look out at a foot or more
piled'up, so that we can, hardly
open, the back door . Oh,
well, it's good exercise and we
get lots of fresh air , . .
ONE thing we ,know for cer-
tain, whoever started the fable
that Santa and his reindeer
travelled over the roof tops end
made his entrance by way of
chimneys, knew nothing of travel-
ling conditions on roof tops
It just couldn't be done , . Old,
Santa would be bogged down at
his first stop! .
OF interest"to Clintonians, was
a report in the Toronto Telegram
last week of the reception given
by Canadian organizations in
London, Eng., to Princess Wiz -
