had spilled most of our milk when he was putting it in the mailbox so he took the other pail and sent up a little more with the kids when they came to school but at that we only got about half what we should have. I just did chores this morning and did some sgushing for Marj. and this after noon I spent down town at the dentists. He filled three more teeth for me. It was about six when I got home. Marj. invited Mabel & Mrs. Walker over to tea so that she would have company while I went to band practice to-night. Mabel came but Mrs. Walker didnt get here till about seven o'clock and we were nearly through tea. I went down to practice and we had a good one although there weren't many out. There was an exhibition hockey match on between Brantford & Dover Intermediates. Brantford won 8-6. Cold day & frosty but fine night.
