He had attended 72 meetings in rural Manitoba during November and December, the average attendance being 90. There are 350 active lo- cals in Manitoba.

She spills gravy on her new skirt. She gets water colors all over her fresh blouse. And she does it all with the most madden- ing ease and unconcern. Along with this goes another feature that keeps us all on edge. Kim is constitutionally unable to move slowly. She starts down the stairs like somebody heading for an air raid shelter, and is as like as not to wind up in a heap at the bottom. She never saunders, walks or strolls. She bobs. She dances. She springs. She bounds. As a result, if she isn't falling down, she's knocking something over. * * * She has always been a horror to eat with. For many years, she did- n't eat enough to keep a butterfly stout. Just sat there, mucking things about on her plate, pushing pickled beets onto the tablecloth, or knocking over her milk. Now she eats like a healthy child, but it's worse than ever. When she's cutting her meat, we all duck our heads and hunch our should- ers. Anything is liable to fly in any direction, from a dill pickle into the butter, to a baked potato into the pie. And she still scores with her milk, whenever there is a fresh tablecloth.

She's wise as a witch. She has a sunny nature. She's stubborn but forgiv- ing. She's loving. She's comical in a completely unconscious way. She's whole -hearted in everything she does. She reads like fury and right now, she shows signs fo becoming a writer. We're always finding stories that she's written, about the house. Here for example is a bit from the latest one. `I am Rogoet Hartiel. I come from France and I wish I was back there. My father is an unhappy manwho works in a small smoking store with billiards.

Other fathers of daughters will excuse me for going on like this. We love our sons just as much, but it's a different relationship, be- cause they're males and not so goofy. All I know is that I would- n't trade my ten -year-old female child for a new Cadillac, four bil- lion dollars and a one-way ticket to heaven.
