We have isited and beep isititig; h:i,ve. lento buying and selling -.-gc:using lust• selves ht prepttratiugl for a very de- finite change in one way of living. '.chis has all come about bec::u.d - son Bob, in a very few day,., i•:ilt be leading north for neer worlds to conquer. After having hien at ]tome, week in and week t:t:t, for five years, being without hint is going to tak a little getting used to. •But then it the wander -lust is ht his blood should we make.a poor mouth and say --"fah no, don't -leave house..-vtie need you!" No, we haven't said. that—but we were anxious for Bob to consider well the step he was ti:king. Fins11;., fie definitely decided that he wanted to mance a move. How Partner and I w IH slake out by ourselves retrains to be seen, When it comes to - long-distance planning Partner is hard to beat but even planning cannot add to the amount of strength it takes to cover a day's work: As we sec it, a wise move for a couple working alone is to cut down on the over- head so that less work and less income is required to /maintain the farm and themselves. How long Bob will he goo; we clo not know. Whether the lure of the land will call hint back again in six months remains to be seen. Incidentally, we have been eery interested 11. the various continents expressed by friends when first they heard of Bob's intention of going away. Not a few of theme have sha- ken their heads ---"Too bad," they said. "you may rind out after you get away that the farm wasn't such a had place after all." Another said —"I don't know that I blame •you for going norti!--there isn't much in .farming fora young fellow these days!" Sometimes one wonders if there will be any young farmers a: all after a wile. \thong ot!te:- things I %vent to the city—staying overnight with daughter -and beeanse Bob was driv- ing me down 1 was even able to take Honey visiting. live- since we got Honey, daughter has been wor. rying me to take her down so she could introduce her to everyone at the house. Now it so happens that. the very person who raised •Honey as a puppy was roosting with daughter for the *inter and I knew she would Iike to see her. How did Honey behave' Just beautifully, She played with the little boys, begged when, she \vas told, made herself quite at home and was happy with eveything a:d everybody. At least she was once she had her way in one little matter. When we first $ot into the car Sob had an old coat on the hack seat for her to sit on. This, 1 o:ecver, did not suit Honey. She was no back-seat pas- senger ... no, sir' But, yet she was afraid to protest too loudly. So she stood up on her hind legs with her nose and front paws ou top of the front seat. Presently she began panting. I didn't think i could take that all the way to Tor- onto. Finally I said to Bob, "Honey isn't used to riding in the back seat —she is panting because she is ner- vouse. Better let her come in with me—she won't be any trouble." So Money carate over to the front scat --and from then on there was no trouble. Site just curled up and %hint to sleep, While I was !n 1oruuto and i,rowsing around a mew book store that was recently opened on Yongc Street, 1 bad rather a funny experi- ence.
