At Kippen Barn Raising Bee
Bob Thompson, a 72-year-old i years,” said Mr. Anderson,
who scoffs at the idea he is get
ting old, balanced expertly on a
foot-thick cross beam 20 feet up
in the framework of the barn
and shouted encouragement to
the sweating crews beneath.
“Heave. Go Heave Go.” The
men manning the pike poles took
up the chant of Alex Dennis, of
Walton, as they heaved another
section of the stout
of John Anderson’s
place.
Nimble-footed Bob
applauded.
“Best danged barn raising I’ve
been at for years,” he exclaim
ed, “and I’ve been going to ’em
since I was twelve.”
Old-Fashioned Bee
Bob’s spirit was typical of the
55 men who Friday flocked to
the farm of Mr. Anderson, two
miles west of Kippen to throw
up the big barn’s framework in
a scant five hours in an old-
fashioned “bee.”
Shorty after noon, cars began
arriving at the Anderson farm
from all directions.
By one o’clock, the men were
lugging the first huge beams up
to the barn site, and manhand
ling them into place. By 6 o’clock
the last wooden peg had been
hammered home and the frame
work was complete.
“We haven't seen anything
like this in this district for
framework
barn into
Thompson
“The
boys are really going at it.”
Months Of Planning
Though the actual barn-raising
was a matter of hours, months
of work and planning went into
preparation for this day.
“I’ve been working on it for
six months,” said the owner.
He explained that trees from
his own hush had supplied the
timber for the new barn. It had
taken weeks to have the logs
sawn, notched and piled in prop
er order in readiness for the
building “bee”.
Young and old of the neigh
borhood responded when the
went out for workers.
Pulleys and winches eased
task, but the barn-raising
manded brawn mostly as .sections
of heavy timbers, some 50 feet
long, were wrestled into posi
tion.
Mr. Dennis backed by long ex
perience in barn building was
in charge of the work. Seventy
year-old William Doig, who has
dlso planned and built g lot of
barns in his day, helped Mr. An
derson prepare the plans.
While the men whre piecing
together the barn skeleton, Mrs.
Anderson and a score of farm
wives from the neighbourhood
were busy in the kitchen. At six,
with the finishing touches put to
the barn, the tired crews sat
down to an open-air supper.
