Tuesday January 13th
It has been very stormy most of to-day and we didn't do anything outside but chores. I spent most of the forenoon getting my incubator ready to start and it has been heating up all day. I worked at my show card work for quite awhile this after noon. I went down to-night to a meeting in the Rectory to organize a canvassing campaign for the Forward Movement, but as Mr. Freeman was the only other one there we couldn't do much. Marj. had been there to tea so I went home with her. It has not been very cold but very blustery.
