he didn't saty long. We then all drove over there and got a few potatoes and took Tim a birthday present for to-morrow. He & Frabk were skating on the pond. Marj. spent the evening reading a detective story that she got for Dick and was then scared to go to bed. I sat up trying to draw a horses head that looked like Josie to evaluate embellish a couple of verses that marj. composed to go on a horse blanket that the family are giving to Josie for Christmas. Much milder and snowing to-night.
