the sword,” she noted.
Today Israelis dig for copper
from 'the same site on which
Solomon’s workers roasted ore

At “The, Hut” we’ve had Christmas in January. “Mr.”
made the toast at dinner, “A merry Christmas to all”, on
Sunday evening.
On January 4 and 5, the weather was so mild and
sunny it looked like March. Lucy remarked on it to her
spouse and ihe replied “We?ve had plenty of March weather
for some time!”
Then came the north wind and it did blow! And we did
have snow!
so.
During
colds, Lucy
The five cardinals which flew off to other feeding
grounds in the autumn, returned to their home haunts at
“The Hut”.
Then back came the balmy weather for a day or
the snowy days, when they weren’t nursing
and her husband watched the birds.
■Lucy watched a pair of evening grosbeak scouts investi
gating the large feeder. They’d flutter in the six inches of
snow piled on the roof. Later in the day .quite a flock came
to feed. After they left, the juncos,' blacK-capped chickadees,
and red-breasted nuthatch came and looked ' around in
evident disappointment. “Mr.” went out and put a supply
of wheat and sunflower seeds in the feeders, and along came
the five young cardinals. They don’t move too far away
in this stormy weather.
One fine day “Mr.” looked but the kitchen window and
saw one of the Downie Woodpeckers picking away at the
entrance to a wren’s house in an evident effort to enlarge
it. He wanted to go out and assist the little bird with a
keyhole saw. But Lucy warned against it. The friendly
little bird might resent help, she felt. “Let it be a do-it-
yourself project/’ she advised. So We hope little “Js/r.
Downie” continues his effort and that he and a mate take
up housekeeping there next spring. .
The shy hairy woodpeckers have been corning to “The
HUt” lately for food, too.
Lucy and her husband have been watching for the five
grosbeaks Which made their appearance in -this district
in December.
Mrs. J. E. HoWard first reported seeing a flock at
“Shore Acres” bn December 22, feeding on the seeds in the
pine cones. Since then Mrs. J. E. Hovey has had a small
flock at their-home and others have seeh them but not'Lucy.
^Perhaps the answer is that there were no cones on the
Spruce ahd pline trees on this property this year.
The seed catalogues have arrived. Lucy spent an even
ing admirihg the flowers ahd shrubs, Arid of course “Mr.0
looked over the vegetables.
Carl says that if Lucy hadn’t caught this virus and he
hadn’t taken it from het, he’d have had the rose arbor
finished. Then We really could have ordered rambling
t roses.

television programs Will be announcing how. many shopping

meeting of the 1966 Bayfield
Council began with the admin
istration of the oath of office
by the clerk-treasurer, Mrs.
Phyllis Maloney — to Reeve F.
McFadden, and Councillors J.
Allaire, J. Sturgeon 'and M.
Merner.
Councillor E. ‘W. Oddleifson
was prevented from attending
by illness but will be sworn-in
at a later date.
Rev. E. J. ,B. Harrison offered
prayers on behalf of all denom
inations, for spiritual' guidance
of the council members;
Reeve McFadden thanked Mr.
Harris'on on behalf of council
and addressed those attending.
He said that it had been a plea
sure, on his' part, to serve' on
Council in 1965 and hoped that
1966 would bring a large de
gree of unanimity in council de
cisions. “If, everyone is not un
animous then it (the problem)
has not been fully explained.”
“Speaking with permission of
council” said 'the reeve — “'our
program will be much the same
as last year’s”; elaborating, he
..said that this meant that funds
would be somewhat restricted
until the completion of the di
vision of assets.
Touching briefly on; the sys
tem of grants and the condition
of Village drainage he went on
to explain how the taxpayers
will gain from the foresight of
1965 council which had' pro
cured a gravel pit which would
provide adequate supplies at an
economical price for the next
ten years or thereabouts.
The mill rate had been main
tained an 1965 and would prob
ably be almost unchanged dur
ing 1966 but due to spiralling
costs we should be prepared for
an' 'increase before long.”
Clerk-treasuirer, Mrs. Malon
ey would continue in office said
McFadden, a's’ also1 Would road's

assessor, Lloyd Makins and tax
collector, Les Elliott.
