Dick and I walked into Sunday School this morning and were about 10 minutes late. I drove back after church with Daddy and Enah who drove Joe and Ginger into church.

This after-noon it looked like rain and I walked in to Huby's. It then cleared off and I walked down to the dock and found Dick talking to Art. Smith, Joe and Greenbury. Then Murray and Roy Dell came along in Dell's row boat and Art. Smith and Greend bury and I got in we went out in the lake. Then we came up and I walked up town and then went down to Aunty Maude's for tea.

When we got back Bill was working spreading the manure he hauled out Saturday and it was to wet around the manure pile to haul out any more and any way Faulkner had come and taken his wagon.

Bill Donald was ploughing and Davie was having a good time in
