the bathroom tank so for about a week we were carrying water up from the cistern. Now it appears the cistern is about dry, for the water is very muddy, so we are melting snow. Wish there would soon be a rain to fill the tank. Are afraid to run the hard water in because of the tank for radiators and the water first being connected with bath room tank and hard water would fill them up. Went down to Mrs. Crow's for my lesson. Mrs. Beattie & Miss Florence Kirchener to see me about looking over Miss Kirchener's paper for Horticultural Society. After tea Duncan came up and we played seven-up until Duncan went to meet the late train at 10.30. Charlie did not get home last night. Went to Frank. Very frosty. Below zero so slept inside.

February 26th. (Thursday)

Did some work for Charles. Went down town for meat and called at Miss Milne's with my purple dress to have it fitted properly. Finished "The Haunted Book Store." {Christopher Morley} Went down to fit my kimina (kimono}. New Spring goods just arrived so stayed
