Hazel Ward came over after school to-night to stay till Monday. After tea we had a fire in the fire-place and Mark came in to spend the evening and we had a fine time discussing poetry and eating pop-corn which Marj. popped. Beautiful day, freezing to-night. Saturday February 19th Dad. & Frank went back to the woods this morning and I went up to Ham Thompson's to see what he thought about forming breeder's club as I had a letter yesterday from the Association advising it for the purpose of marketing surplus stock and promising help. Ham thought it would be a good scheme. His stock looks fine. This after noon Frank Tid & I went back to the bush this after noon. Marj. & Hazel were very busy when I left making preparations for the girls auxillary which came over to sew this after noon Frank came over for tea and spent the evening.
