the next day warning all the neighbors out to a combined shower, "chivaree" and dance next Friday night. Dad. went down town this after noon to see Roy and I spent most of the after noon in the church books and then went down and took a walk over the back half of Flemming's place as it is for sale now separately.

Dad. has disked all day on the corn ground but didn't get a very early start as we had to go back and catch the horses. I spent most of the morning cutting the lawn and Frank and I seperated the lambs from the ewes and shut them up to starve them preparatory to dosing them for tapeworm. I rolled the corn ground this afternoon. Frank has been visiting blacksmiths trying to get one to shoe Joe. Hallam has a sore hand and can't & old John Evans won't. To-night I went down to band practice. Very windy and quite cool to-night. Tid is all right. Marj. just about well but Aunty's tooth is very bad.

Monday June 20th

Another week has rumbled along and fast and I don't seem to have had a minute's time to jot down the doings day by day so will have to lump it again. We have been very busy getting in our corn and I have been rising at half past four & five so hadn't much time in the mornings and as Marj. has been down at Aunty's all week I have spent my evenings going down to see her. Ham. Thompson came down and planted the corn for us on Thursday. Friday it rained and I spent the day painting at show cards. Dad. drove down in the after noon and brought Marj. home and to-night Friday we all went out to Tom's shower and dance where we had a great time. Frank cut half of his alfalfa and a little hay {illegible} but we have never done anything with it. Thursday night the band played in the park for the church garden party it was to have been at Jack Paine's but he is too sick to have it. Saturday I harrowed the corn ground and broke up a lot of the hard lumps which had softened with Friday's rain. Yesterday Dick came home for his holidays two weeks. Dad. stayed down yester afternoon with him and Marj. and I went for a drive. Saturday night I camped in the gully with the boys - never again! Hope
