can be enlisted. He never said any thing about it to any one of the family, he told me on Saturday but told me not to say any thing about it so when Art Quanbury told Dad. to-night that Quint had told Charlie about it he was very surprised. Every thing is flooded to-day a very great deal of snow has gone off and it has rained two or three times, the roads all fierce for either sleighs or wheels.

Tuesday March 28th

It rained most of the morning so we didn't do much but just the chores and just before dinner we husked a little corn, we sat around for quite awhile after dinner while Dad. was reading from James Whitcomb Riley. I drove Enah down to the annual meeting of the Women's Auxillary about three o'clock and had to turn around and go after her again almost as soon as I got home, the roads are so bad, Joe couldn't go off a walk. Dad. & I took the top of the buggy and it makes it look queer but it was in bad shape. The first lamb of the season arrived last night some time and was all right out there this morning, he is a ram and belongs to 117 I think. Very mild but not sunny snow going fast.

Wednesday March 29th

This has been a real Spring day. Sunny and very mild, too mild to wear a coat or sweater and mud & water every where you look, the snow is nearly all gone except where there are drifts. After I did chores I spent most of the morning wheeling my compost heap down south of the well where it is low. This after noon Dad and I husked some corn. Dad. also put the saddle on Queen and I roder her down the road a little way, just to give her a little exercise and to get her used to the bridle, she didn't do so badly at all. Frank Crysler was in for awhile to ask Dad. about a bad winded horse and Dad. told him he would go over to-morrow. To-night Frank & I walked down town and Marj. & I went to the soldier's concert. The hall was packed full and Jim Much and two McDonald girls had our seats and couldn't be induced to move. I stood there about five minutes trying to make {Sublimy?} Brock who was usher get me my proper seats and had a stream of humanity from the centre isle to the door blocked but as I saw they wouldnt move with out my creating conspicuous and unseemly disturbance
