Thursday October 12th

Went out again this morning and dug mud out of the ditches where Dad is plowing. Then I came up to the house, did a few chores around, and Frank and I opened up some ditches, one out of the buck wheat field which is full of water. Frank did not ave to go to schoo lto-day as it was Teacher's Convention. This afternoon I went over to bannister's and borrowed a ladder to picj the rest of the Northers Spies. I got a little over a bushel off of the two tres. Frank wroye letters all the afternoon and about four o'clock went down to the dentist's and got his tooth finished up. We all went down to-night to hear the Polmatice sisters whom the orchestra got to come. They were fine for instrumental music but not much for singers, a fine cornet player and violinist. Another played all srts of things such as Tuberphone and Xylophone which were played with hammers same princilpe as bells. Fine day to-day. Blakie husked more corn
