offering which was to go towards wiring the church and Sunday school for Hydro. We didn't get one but several Methodists did, anyway the people responded very well. Marj. and I counted the money to-night and the special collection ammounted to $252.55 besides the regular collection in the duplex envelopes. They figure they will need 350 or $400 to wire the building, so they are going to spoil things by having a social to make up the necessary ammount. Bill Barwell took Enah down to church to-night and brought her home, soon after church Mark came in with his car and took Enah. Marj. & me for a drive to Simcoe and back.

Dad. and I finished shocking up the corn to-day. It has got pretty well bleached out from lying out to the weather so long but there is a lot of good feed in it yet. We expected to have to go over to help Jack fill his silo to-day but they never sent after us and they had a record run for over there, finishing up about five o'clock. We got through with the corn early and got the chores done early. Marj. went down town for tea and this evening went to the Girls' Auxillary. I went down to band practice but met the Tuxis boys first over in the sunday school to arrange for a feed next Saturday night. I also went over to see Mr. Cornish about it for awhile. His freind John Dunn was there and he said he would come over and help things along.
