down town to-night. Frank and I walked. Frank, Enah and the baby went up to the Sunday school but Dad. visited with Aunty Alice and Aunt Ida. Aunty was up at the Johnsons tending George who has the whooping cough while his father and mother were at the Sunday school. I went up to Andrew Innes's and got a pair of rubber boots and then took a little chicken up to Cousin Loll and by the time I had visited with her for half an hour it was too late to go to the {illegible}.
Thursday November 1st
I spent most of the morning doing chores and getting things ready for to-night as I expected to be up at Ham's this after noon with Frank helping him fill his silo. Dad. plowed all day. We went up right after dinner but Ham said it was too wet and didn't expect us up. It snowed quite a lot during the night and as his corn was all down in sheaf it would have been nasty handling. We came home and hooked Joe & Belle to the waggon and went down to Art Ryerse's where we borrowed their root pulper. Lloyd told Frank the other day we could have it for all winter as they have no roots this year. To-night I went down town and after coming over to Silverthorne's with Marj. went to the show.
