MERRY
CUItISTMAS
May the gifts of
health, wealth, and
hapOiness be yours!
When the children were little
we encouraged arguments, and I
don't mean -just discussions. As
long as -they were not heated or
vicious, we considered them" good
mental calisthenics, When I paid
a visit to the home of No. 1 son
recently, I was interested to dis-
cover he is continuing the prac-
tice with his/own 'family.
' They were arguing the benefit
of group travel by rail as against
a motor trip planned as a visit to
an -aunt in London. The three
bairns had never been on a train
and were therefore excited at the
prospect of this mode of travel.
Mother and wife of the family
contended it would be difficult to
pack for so many for three days.
In a car she could just pile the
stuff in the trunk, she argued.
Father.replied, "But think •of me,
I'll get •out of driving in Alter
weather, and perhaps arrive rested
enough •to enjoy, the visit for a
change." ,
My two bits worth Was the
reasoning, "How do you know
anything about it when you've
never tried traveling by train as
a family?" Result was that they
promised to meet me in Hamilton
and we Would all travel as far as
London together.
Three little noses were plastered
against the coach window as the
train drew into the Hamilton sta-
tion. Their owners 'wildly beckon-
ed me to join them. felt reas-
onably confident by the look on
their faces that my suggestion for
the trip had had no repercussions
so far.
The youngest breathlessly regal-
ed me with her success with the
ice water faucet. Before we Were
to arrive in London I could only
conjecture how many gallons of
water she consumed.
The middle child, who is never
without pencil or paper, drew
cows, houses, barns, conductors
and trains with a reasonable like-
ness all the way from from Hamilton
until thetrain pulled into London
station.
Huddled under his father's great
coat, ,the .,eldest,:put his Cub lore
to good purpose by building a
"tent" shelter in his adventurous
railroad Wilderness. In this hide-
away he lay prone on his, stem-
ach on the coach seat most of the
hours of the journey, reading com-
ics playmates had presented to
him on departure.
Mother of the brood knit hap-
pily on something that resembled
a potato sack with needles that
looked like chop sticks, Every
now and then she would glance at
her peacefully sleeping husband,
arch an eyebrow and inform me
that the sbopelesS creation was "a
bulky for Pete" for Christmas,
"I can only knit on it when he
IS, asleep.. never get any time at
hOrnq and I certainly couldn't
have accomplished much during a
trip in the car," she remarked. '
But probably the one who en-
joyed the eXperittent the most
was the, head of the househOld, tie
