Frank stopped off at Jack's to do chores and Dad. and I put part of the load off in the horse stable, just as we were getting through the chores which was rather late George & Marion came in. They had come on the five o'clock car and had had tea with Aunty Alice. We were expecting them some time to-night as George sent a telegram. Miserable weather, snowing to-night.

Wednesday April 7th

We haven't done much but chores to-day and I have been working on the last lesson of my show card course. It is quite a long one and I want to finish it up this week if possible. Enah drove George & Marion down town with Mexico this afternoon and they got a suitcase which they had left down town. I went down to band practise to-night. I went around to Harry Dyer's first and got my hair cut. We hadn't a big crowd out as it was a rotten night freezing hard and {Grint?}, Mid. and Erney West are up the lake fishing. Bill Lemmons was in a exceptionally good humor though They say he is going to be married soon to Lou. Dixon but she hasn't got him yet. Cold and extremely rotten.

Thursday April 8th

Dad. George and I went down to Preston's this morning and burned some more brush. Henry was there burning his to-day. This after noon Dad. & I went down alone and finished burning ours. I went down to the Tuxis boy's meeting to-night we didn't have a regular meeting but the boys were making plans for their father & son banquet next Tuesday, we had a very short session and I got home early. It has been a nasty day. Sunny by "spells" and a snow storm every half hour.

Friday April 9th

Dad. George. Tid and I went down to the orchard this morning and helped Henry burn the rest of his brush. We got it all slicked up in fine shape before noon and Arthur complimented us on the thoroughness with which we did the job. George and I went over to see the old McQueen cemetry. I worked at my show card lessons this after noon. George went down town while Marion was asleep after dinner and invited Ada to go to the dance with him to-night. Marion went down town after him as soon as she woke up and brought him back for tea. After tea George left early to get Ada. and Frank, Enah and Marion went down later to a concert and dance put on by the Rebecca Lodge from Delhi. They said the dance was good but the concert was rotten. Dad. Tid and I stayed home and I worked at my show card lesson. A little milder but raw.

Saturday April 10th
