But the rain ter splashinan gnda• to Inc Toronto Without rubbers, raincoat or um- brella, by four-o'clock I was fed up! phoned home to make sure everything was all right, spent the night with Daughter and resumed business the next morn- ing -- or tried to. That day it not only rained, it hailed as well, and the wind was terrific. As I came out of Eaton's Cal - lege street store, a miniature whirlwind lifted my hat from my head, twirled It along the pavement for awhile and then playfully hid it under a parked car, well out Of reach. A gallant gentleman carne to the rescue and by means of a rolled -up newspaper, managed to retrieve my headgear. Later I was on Yonge below Wellington, where trucks, graders, compressors and other road machinery was at work. The sidewalk was blocked off leaving ane narrow roadway for pedestrians and traffic so I had to pick my way among the aforesaid machinery. Later I was at Arthur's office and his sister said -- "Wherever have you bean? One side Of your face and neck is all black streaks," That really made me happy. But of course there were some bright spots in by two dull days. The first day I was at a lunch- eon meeting and had the privi- lege Of meeting and hearing a gentleman I have always great- ly admired -- via the radio — Leonard Brooking ton. He spelt* only briefly but in five minutes he said more than most people could say in an hour. If only more radio personalities had bis speaking ability. The second day I had lunch with a friend of long standing, followed by two fact-finding hours in the Reference Library. And of course at Dee's place there was our grandson — eleven months old today.

But the fact that he isn't walking doesn't keep him from getting to wherever he wants to go. He navigates flat On his tummy, arms and legs going like a frog in water. May- be he'll be another champion swimmer! Every time I see hien he has added a few more items to his bag of tricks. What babies will do to attract attention. A visitor, 14 - months - old 'Robin, was put in the playpen with David the other day. They had a great time together u n t i l David picked up his stuffed bunny and. used it to whack Robin over the head! That evening I left David and his parents; Toronto and its noise, rain and traffic; and came home by train. The comfort of home life was never more ap- preciated than it was that night. Then came Saturday — a beautiful day. Partner and I headed for our Meal fair which as usual had plenty Of attrac- tions for town and country alike.

Just think of the man-hours it requires. The directors, busy for weeks ahead, planning for the exhibits, The exhibitors, training and conditioning their horses, live- stock and poultry.
