Guess I must have been doing too much gadding and got behind with un' work, Two days away from home and Pm like a cat running after its tail. Especially when al - long comes an editorial letter re- minditig the that a promised article for the October issue of a certain magazine had not yet reached the of ice, Not surprising since at that stime it wasn't even typed! But the fall days are with us now and cooler weather makes work that nucli easier. And Part- ner isn't putting in any wheat so we don't have that to worry about. On a one-man farm there are enough odd jobs to keep a not -so young farmer busy without crop- ping -the sort of jobs that don't show, as it 'were. For instance, Partner wanted to turn the cows into, another field to pasture. , Be- fore he could do that there were literally bushels of wild' apples '(that had to be picked up and taken a''ay. Cows love to eat apples and iiore than one good cow has died' if .a result, Not here, thank goodness, although we have had to call in the vet on more than one occasion. An apple a day never yet kept the vet away. Ever tried picking up windfalls out of long grass? it is quite a job. Partner is threatening to cut down the trees as the quickest and sur est way of dealing With the prob- lem -which I think is an excellent idea. Strange how quickly birds seine changing seasons. It is two weeks now since the barn swallows left. One day they were here -the next day they were gone, And we miss theta -darting in and out of the barn or sitting in a row along the hydro wires or the clothesline, their satiny plumage gleaming in the sun. The last two days there has been one lonely little tree swallow sitting around on the clothesline prop. l wonder what happens relive a little bird get- last In place of the happy little barn swallows we have the noisy blue jays. .Ilmndscunv birds, no doubt. but certainly disturbers of the peace. At this minute there is a blue jay sereechine from the top of an oak puce near the house --marc than like- ly he is scalding :t squirrel - of which there are pienty, I3lack squir- rels, grey squirrels, brown squirrels -and Tippy harks at them all. But not Honey -she isn't interested in s.quirri'1:<--her hunting field is the pasture where she will flush any un:.uspccting bird within ramie. Honey is a funny little dug -site lutes people but actively dislikes all other rlogs. Oat! day Partner . went (Iowa for the mail and niet our neighbour from across the road with his two big dog: and four half- grott n collie pups, Directly she saw them 1n 1.'y 's fur hri.atled, and then, harking furiously, site took after the pups. Any one of then could have rolled Honey in the dust with one paw, instead of which they all tan yelping back to the house. ?'Paving put the pops to root Honey tante back and went after the two big dogs. They, too, turned tail and fled. Tinny sat by the side of the road completely bewildered by tine antics of the other dogs. Another time a neighbour came to call -a dog -lover, if ever there . was one -with plenty of,her own. After she had left for home, walk- ing across the fields, I went up to the hen pen. When I canle out there was no sign of our two dogs -until I looked across- the front field surd there was 0111' neighbour bringing the dogs hack home because they wouldn't leave her . , two dogs that had never followed anyone before -that is, outside of our own family, or someone staying in the house. I suppose we have got enough dm -nestle animals around here but what I would specially like is a \1'elsn Corgi pup and a Sia- mese kitten! Speaking again of squirrels ._ a few days ago 1 was taking a basket of apples to a friend in town. Along the sidewalk I met a little brown squirrel, ile stopped and I stopped. He sat up and I stooped down. holding out my band. Along came Sciuirrel, jumped into the palm of my hand, did a little investigating, aid then ran up my arta, across the Lack of nn' neck and sat on the opposite shoulder. I offered him an apple. Ile took a little nibble and then 'lumped down into the basket. How long be would have stayed with me I don't know. Unfortunate- ly I had stropping to do and had to let hint go.

This quarter begins the first unit in a comprehensive study of Olt! Testament history. The lessons of this unit begin With Abraham and trace the beginnings of the Hebrew nation to the couquest of Canaan under the leadership of Joshua. After this quarter. these historical studies will be resumed in the third quarter of 1952, The aim of this quarter is to discover the stgnili- cance of Clod's selection of the na- tion Israel and to know God as revealed in the early years of that nation. This study is particularly interesting today because of events concerning the Jews.

It falls -hardest on certain social classes, Thus, in a. sense, a war can be financed by debasing the value of the ,coinage as well as by imposing heavier taxes. It is much easier for politicians to follow inflation than taxes. Where inflation hurts most is in • lowering the value of life msur- ance policies, savings bank funds, mortgage and other bonds, pen- sions and annuities, Inflation is primarily a tax on thrift. Those injured are the white- collar classes, unorganized workers, pensioners and annuitants, and sim- ilar groups.
