his insurance papers and he spent a good part of the day measuring the buildings and renewing the insurance aplication. Mrs McBride was here washing all day. After dinner I took some eggs over to Jack Martin and then went down town to get my grapevine which Ed. gave me. I stopped in at Uncle Ward's on my way home to ask him about them and he ralked to me for about an hour and told me all about his Uncle loudon Bougner's vineyard over at Flint. I couldn't plant our my grapevines when I got home so just put them down cellar in a bag. To-night I walked down to band practice and had a fau=irly good one although there were only five of us there. It snowed nearly all day and has been a rotten day,
