February Tuesday 15 1927

Alex and I cut logs all day between chores and Roscoe drew two loads to the sawmill in Paris. Had my last cutter ride behind Dollie when I drove up to help Jean fix up the wedding invitations. Posted them on my way home in the moonlight and was home in good time after a dandy evening.

Wednesday 16

A nasty wet morning so Alex and I took the boys to school in his car and then peddled the Upper Town and Flats as far as the Walker {Press?} for Ernie. It faired up in the afternoon so we cut logs and Roscoe made another trip to town.

Thursday 17

Spent a few hours in both the morning and afternoon sawing pine logs in the bush next to Paynes even if it was kind of sloppy under foot.

February Friday 18 1927

Alex went to St. Catharines with Mr. Telfer. I helped Roscoe load some logs after breakfast and then drove his coupe to Edgars Churchills and got his front spring repaired. Helped load another load of logs after dinner and then helped Mae & Ernie in the afternoon.
