Friday March 4th

Frank and I put off the load of hay we put on yesterday. We took it over to the old barn for the cows. Then Dad. & Frank went over to Toms and got a load of straw. I just did chores and came home for dinner before they got back. They got home about one o'clock and we put it off into the horse stable. We didn't do anything else but chores as Dad. wanted to get down early to Pinafore practice. I separated my Plymouth Rock hens from the Wyandottes to-night as I think may be Jack will be wanting eggs soon now so it was after six when I got home. Marj. told me that the band was going up to play at the final hockey match between Dover & the Simcoe baseball team, but they hadn't sent me word. They called up in a few minutes but I said I wouldn't have time to get there. They called up again and said they were short handed so I hurried and dressed ate a bite or two of bread & jam and skiddooed over across the pond to catch the car. The game was pretty one sided as Dover piled up a score of 18-8 but we all had a good time as Dover wins the cup. I came back across the pond and found Dad. & Enah here They had hoped to have a good Pinafore practice but half their crowd was at this match so they were peeved, naturally. Marj. cooked some beefstake before we went to bed. Getting milder.

I was late getting over to the farm this morning and spent most of the fore noon doing chores and making a trough for the chickens. When I got here Cnocfierna had presented us with a pure white bull calf. Dad. Frank & Tid. went over to Tom's this morning and got another big load of straw which we put off over the granary for the cows this after noon. Frank went down town when we got it off and Dad. & I just did chores Enah didn't feel well at all. Marj. had the girls over sewing for the {illegible} again this after noon and as it was such a stormy night, three of them stayed to tea. Irene Pickford Myrtle Greenbury & Eileen Cook.

Sunday March 6th

Marj. and I went to church & Sunday school and went up for dinner and to spend the afternoon at the Bagley's. George & Mrs. Duncan were there too. Mr. Bagley was showing us the furniture he has been making which certainly looks fine. We were rather late getting home as we called in at Aunty's for a few minutes. To-night Mark came in to see us on his way back from church. It has been very mild but inclined to rain. Colder to-night
