ST. JOSEPH and DRYSDALE
L.AL. FRED DUCHARME, Corresnondentl
Mr. and Mrs. Ed Corriveau and
Mr. and Mrs. Pete Jeffery were in
London last Friday on a business
trip. They also visited with Mr.
and Mrs. Morley Fournier of that
city.
Mrs. . Nettie Harvey, of the
Bluewater north, called on the
Ducharmes on Friday last. She al-
so visited with Mrs. Josephine
Ducharme.
Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Jeffery,
of Goderich, were weekend visitors
in this neighbourhood.
After waiting for nearly six
years, Mr. and Mrs. Leo Ducharme,
of Dashwood, were greeted with a
charming baby boy, born at South
Huron hospital. Dr, Klahsen, of
Zurich, was in attendance, and has
the highest praise of the Duch-
arme's
Winter has started at a season-
able time with plenty of snow, cold
and high winds, to plug the high-
ways, roadways, not to mention
the lanes leading to country homes.
People superstitious of an open
winter as being one sickly due to
changeable weather can now rest
assured that they will be protected
by normal winter tempatures. We
have now passed one month of the
normal three month winter season.
There is still plenty of time in the
remaining two months for a great
deal of cold and snow. Winter
started rough and rather unusual,
but for those who remember the
late fall of 1903 and the opening
year of 1904 will tell you that win-
ter set in that fall in the fourth
week of November, and with the
exception of a short January thaw,
winter continued until late spring.
Snow was piled up to a depth of
four to six feet on the level.
At that time there was ho snow-
plows or snow blowers to clear the
roads as there are today. At that
time the roads were narrow with
board, rail and stump fences with
brush and small trees growing al-
ong the road way. These all caused
the snow to pile up on the road
way.
People of that day lived through
it without much embarrasment and
got about fairly well. They did
not open the roads but drove on
top of the snow.
During the month of February a
six inch crust formed on the snow.
Many people went to town on their
shopping errands by walking across
the fields on this crust.
Hard as the winter was, people
enjoyed it. It was perhaps the
coldst on record, to say nothing of
the depth of the snow. There is
some possibility that the present
winter will be a repeater, and if so,
it will be something for the young
generation to talk about later on.
Let us not fall prey to the sup-
erstition of an open winter being
deadly, but an open winter is much
healthier.
