It's the last week of the summer
vacation and on Tuesday next boys
and girls will trudge back to school
wondering how two months could have
-passed so quickly. It's queer how
the hands of the clock slow up when
we are tied, to a task, and how fast
they go when we are haviug fun.

We threshed two fields of oats Last
week. The thresher arrived in the
morning with a tractor pulling a steel
separator. lie wi ipped the separator
down itho the field, pulled it up to a
position with the tractor . .
set the
tractor, put Oil the belt and we were
on our way by -seven-thirty.
The method certaiiily is different
from what it used to be when thresh-
ing was dune by steam ct,biues. There
wasprobablyinure thrill fur the young-
sters in the old-fashioned method.
