and that we shouldn't be wasting any more time in the middle of the morning, so we quit without either being checked. By the time I got home and got my clothes changed it was nearly noon. This after noon we didn't do much but chores and husk a little corn. Ferdie went down town. Frank and I went down to A.Y.P.A to-night but they didn't do anything down there much but adjourn. Mr. Johnson was not there as he was called away very suddenly this morning to Muskoka to the supposed death-bed of his uncle. Glad Law brought the minute book as Marj. has the grip. I went in with Glad. after the meeting to see her. She looks the picture of health and says she feels alright as long as she is sitting down but she got so sick and dizzy in school this morning that she had to let the kids all out and go home before recess. I went down to Aunty's on my way home Aunty Alice had gone up to Cousin Loll's to play bridge. Frank came in while I was there and we came home to-gether. The marble season has commenced already I suppose on account of the open weather. Frank has been playing all evening and has about thirty he had none when he went down I borrowed some from him and we played odd & even all the way home and I had the same old luck that I used to have when Egg. Thompson & I used to play all day in school, started with about a dozen and only had about five or six when we got home. Dick and Ferdie where here when we got home, they got a ride with Alan. It has been very mild all day but is colder to-night.
