before noon. Dad. drove over after dinner and helped me put the straw off. He said Frank was having trouble with the binder and had come over with Dad. to see Bill Donald and find out what was wrong. Dad. also wanted to find out from Bill how much gravel it took to build a water trough as Shoff has hauled him a couple of loads now. After we put the straw off and Dad. left I started to cut the alfalfa and got about 8 rounds cut but quit early and went down to band concert. I got a ride down with Charlie & Nellie Innes as they brought Lil. Ward otherwise known as Mrs. Leamon Turner out to see Marj. After band concert Harry Moon felt that it would be right & just to blow in the fifteen dollars which the band got for going to Jarvis as it was found money. They weren't engaged to go but their presence along with the rest of the Dover people turned the Jarvis carnival from a very tame affair into a great success so the committee forced them to accept the 3 x 5s. Cpnsequently we all repaired to Geo. Robinson's and had a glass of 4 - 4 after which Geo. treated us to another glass of the same. I rode home as far as the Winding Hill with the Lemmon's Carl. said he forgot all about going to Jarvis after he had decided himself not to go. Still very hot.
