Marj. and I went to Sunday school and church and had dinner at Aunty's. Winnie was there to dinner and we stayed most of the after noon. We left our cat outdoors this morning and when we came home it was nowhere to be found. Mr & Mrs Jas. Smythe were at the farm when I went over and as Enah asked them for tea she sent Tid over to bring Marj. over so we were there all the evening. Mark Stepens and his brother who is going to technical school in Toronto were at the farm for dinner and To-night Tom came over. Sun out but cold
