Goeerlek. April 1.1. 1919.
DEAR SON, - VeII, my hoy, 'tis
springtime again ansi with the return
ache robin and the Crow and the bud-
ding of the trees, tiro shooting of the
grass blades and the glowers he
precious and magnificent handiwork
God's nature -we have also the hon
cleaning at hand. ant some job it la:\
believe me. It seen;% to me, Son, that
the longer your Ada lives the more
peevleh and obstinate she b000mes.
What she didn't say t., me on `Satur-
day while 1 was doing; my level best to
asxist hey with the clean-up is not
worth nowntioning. Uid you ever tackle
a !macre/tat If so, yon'II understand
hilly how wy pathos was bored Isar
week -end.
"Now we have the stove moved. get
that mattress ono o shore." *be cried,'
"and what's more, dein'% Ione any time."
she added.
.1 went to the boyishly and it reminded
me of being at such a +olema spot many
yearn ago when our good old friend
(censored) was paled,. cwt after being
severely kicked &boot the yard by his
mule, Yes, &gain it eau a solemn
moment. I realiaeel the great tank
before. 1 threw oil my coat. leaned
across the Iron etfbel-tore and in the
first attempt tome The hilly thing
upright it slipped. at, as • consequence
I stood right cm m• head. while my
pencils and watch lima /tamers fell from
my pockets.
I do not recall my language of that
moment, nor do I we'd to recall it, bat
1 remember gaging through the side
window aecl thanking my .stars that
none of the local clergymen had hap-
pened b be paasllt.k for, surely they
would have believed 'hat either 1 was
beating my wife or .he wee heating me.
However, 1 gos et ra3gbtenel around
and took a (yeah heel on the thing. I
gave a jerk sod It ee.nse over on top of
me, 1 called aloud for Ma to come and
help, but before gibe arrived on the
xoene 1 wax stretched out 011 the floor
beneath the heavy mattreaa. When
all danger of asphyxiation hail paxsed.
I swore to conquer wad bade your
mother stand ar-ide and watch a
modern Napoleon wen the day. Some-
how or other, lip% as over my back and
with my right toct fire. I began the
march past Lb. stating room
and tab the . , , castd,deme
roast• *0 4 of ,7lgglkaq' of wee iiia ami
another and I fees the presence ut half -e -
dozen neighbors watching my plight.
Smash' A picture fell to the door.
"Oh, there goes grandad's picture," a
voice not unlike your mother's shouted.
"Hang grandad's picture," I replied.
It may have seemed' mean, yet the
bloomiug thing had been hanging fur
the past quarter of a century -and as
Fred Pridham would say, "It's all right;
nobody '% hurt anyway. '
All the while, 1 kept mouching along.
The next collapse was when I came in
contact with a table and hurled eleven
flowerpots to the floor. In trying to
get away from the table, the end of the
mattress caught slC'* beautiful fern -
and now 'tis beautiful no more. As I
felt myself near the outside kitchen
door, 1 made a mail rush, only to knock
down 9lrx. (oeneored), who was carry--
ing her daughter's birthday cake to
show Ma. She had to bake another.
"Gay there. ye old devil" said I as I
tossed the bed apparatus upon the
ground. Mrs. (censored) thought I
meant her, as she still struggled
between the garbage barrel and a
bandbox. 1 have not yet had the op-
portunity to explain what I did mean.
I will never tackle a mattrews again.
Of course. Son. 'you know that 1 Mu
%oma sort of a port laymelf. At least,
I alway* considered myself a poet.
Really. 1 never did care for the consid-
erations of others. anyway-. Well,
what I was going to say was that
during the past few weeks severed of
my poems have been appearing in The
Saturday- , an' since that time 1
am simply pestered to death with
effusions from old maid amateurs from
far and near in Huron county. Just
Chico morning, Jennie (censored) of Chu -
ton called on me and she said In part:
"1 merely want you to read over a few
verses of m>' best attempt." I read.
It begaq thug:
The nun is sinking in the west
The sky, a purple hue:
It 1s the part I love the best
Just 'twist Cue and you.
You know, Son. my heart fairly nips
about when 1 read such stiff. I *tank
back In my chair and when 1 regained
conOciouMnese I tried the second verse:
'Tia In the evening when we flirt
In twilight here we alt:
Whene'er I kiss my darling Bert,
-and the last line was misuing.
"Oh, yes,- Maid she; "I couldn't
anioh that 41tauro. '
- I did not wonder that the eouldn't.
She asked me to do set for hos', if I
could but have some Inspiration.
This Is what I ttlggested:
"He always has a fit "
In any event. 1 *hell never be
bothered with that old dame again,
Now Son, 1 eruct close. Be a good
boy. i hope you are getting along all
right or. r there Have you an y idea
when you will be home? Yes, We*.

newly - formed secoCanadian division.
In November, 19113, while operating on
the Somme he ret-eived a shell splinter in

Miss Gwendolin Colborne-, who has
been a military nurse in France. arrived
home on Monday evening after three
years' service overseas. The nursing
sister's life is one of hard, constant work
rather than of excitement, but there was
some of the latter element in Miss Col-
borne's experience. which was supplied
by the German airplanes which bombed
the hospitals at Etaples, France, while
she Was working there. She was able to
see Paris and other parts of France on
occasional "leaves," and after hostilities
ceased she had a trip through a part of
the devastated area of France and Bel-
gium. including the Ypres district. She
will remain in town for rorne time with
her mother. Mrs. J. H. Colborne.
