concerned, in his opinion, with much lesser things. There was Jamie as busy as the proverbial naller building a milking stool, in his concentration leaving James in passing to remark: "Well you don't resemble your grand-mother here in looks (James is rather pleased rhat the youngster inclines to favor his side of the house!) but you're cer- 'tainly like her in your inclinations today!" O O O And before this there had been the grand-mere herself when he had chanced to come indoors while we were immersed in a book. "Busy, did you say you were, Ellen? Well to a casual observer, it seems just the opposlte." "But James, we washed out some things", we ex- Zlalned rising quickly. "there's read in the oven and besides we wouldn't dare to leave this pot of soap we're making. We were just looking up the recipe to be certain of the moment when saponificatlon takes place!" But Jamer is not one to be easily taken in. "Humph! he snorted, "you find soap recipes on the lye tin, and not in a book at

But it is amazing what one may find between the covers of a book in odd moments. even between watches in the boiling cf a tempera- mental batch of soap. So easy it was for mothers and grand-mothers to make great supplies of it, al- rrost without thought or effort it seemed, while we approach it in the nature of a task. Not that it is a custom to make our own, but we Ire only driven to the chore when discards of fats have accumulated, and an inherent thrift will not make allowance for any other satis- factory disposal.

O I I

From the very intention it pre- sented a concern. When checking over our possessions we found we were directing a measure of envy st those farm-wives. not who own- rd larger acreage or more prosper- ous homesteads than out! but to the ones who among their chattels muld claim an iron pot! However we knew we could borrow and the old adage: “You may be able to get along without friends but you can't get along without neighbors" came to mind, as with Jamie and grand- daughter we entered the short-cut in the front mendovl; this morniltl?»

Down the short-cut which runs tipsily there. we came to the mill- dnm. Nowadays this path is abloom with a riot of colors, arranged In designs which no human hand could hope tn plan or imitate-lonll-stem- med buttercups. rrlinting in the sunlight to make the children pause, he to hold a plucked one he- naath a winsome chin to query: "Do you like butter?" and the sun on her hair turned it to bright rold as well; Ox-eye daisies in frilled frowns, the petals of a sacrificed one to be numbered at Jamie‘! i‘!- quest!

tion should be used in making the recommendation of a change of climate to an asthmatic. The pa- tient often considers the act of breaking up his home and moving to a different climate his last. re- sort. If this experiment falls. de-

, ‘ ncy and despair follows." And when despondency and de- spair develop, fear and anxiety aggravate the symptoms.

-Before expecting the asthmatic to pull up stakes, change his oe- cupation and transfer himself and family to strange surroundings, he should first be given a complete physical examination and the us- ual tests for pollen. fungus. foods, furl. feathers. If he is sensitive to any pollen, dust. fungus present. in the new climate to which he is moving, he should be desensitized before he goes. If this is done it. ls possible that he will not have to break up his home and move.

If he is not desensitized to these

substances before he goes it is most unfair to have him move to a climate where he will come in contact with the same substances which are causing attacks at home. The treatment of an attack of asthma is the infecton of seven to fifteen drops (minims) of adren- aln under the skin. Trying to avoid the substances to which pa- tient is sensitive and trying also to avoid emotional disturbances should also lessen the number and severity of the attacks.

Asthma Causes and Treatment

The cause or causes of asthma were unknown until recently. Now it is known that allergy. nose and throat. defects. emotional disturb- ances, can cause the attacks, most asthmatics can be helped.

It is their interest and enthusiasm that has made the 1st Tignish Company what it is now. A Board of exam- iners will be arranged by the local ladies for the test work and we shall without a doubt have a high standard in Guiding at Tignish. Mrs. Jenkins inspected the Com- pany with Patrol Leaders, Shirley McInnis (Sparrows) Mary Camer- on (Canary) Teresa MacPhee (Humming Birds) Shirley Perry (Wrens). Minor details were cor- rected but on the whole the gen- eral appearance was excellent. Knot games followed to refresh memories of those sticky ones. and were won by Patrols Humming.

mind this sort of travel even if pro- gress is a bit slow. Besides, toting H.M. mails for thirty-eight years has turned what started out to be a part-time job into a hobby. It's not a paying business, as any rural mailman will tell you. A person who didn't love the work would not stick to the job for any lepgth of time. And few rural mall carriers do hold the job long. I I I

During the summer months it's. not too bad; but, come winter with its heavy frosts and snows, it's a horse of another color. Actually. one has to be made of good stuft to stand the strain. It's a tough job for the horses, too, often plung- ing through snowdrifts up to their bellies.

Williams could tell you plenty of tales that would make the hairs of your head stand up like the bristles on Pop-eye's chin. He has been out in storms when he actually despaired" of ever seeing his home and loved ones again. And more than once he found himself ma- rooned in a snowdrift, his horse having gone on without him.

Today. snowplougha keep the main thoroughfares open, but part of Nelson's twenty-mile route is over byroads that see little traffic during the stormy winter months.

And no matter what the weather is like, people always look for their daily mail. "What's keeping the mailman?" and "Isn't he awfully late today" are phrases often heard from folk who were brave enough to face the elements as far as their own mail. boxes.

a

Perhaps the mailman hears these complaints; but, if so. they don't bother him any. for deep down in his heart he knows that those grumhlers wouldn't take his job oven if they could make money at it. No. siree! Delivering the mails in rural communities is no picnic: it won't put many shekels in your pocket: and. worse still. no pension is given at the end of the trail for services rendered.

What the rural carrier does get is a lot of fresh air and a chance to see the same scenery for around three hundred days a year. He also covers a lot of miles, as you will realize when you stop long enough to total them up.

Take, for instance, Nelson's daily journey of twenty miles. In a working week of six days It adds up to 120 miles. Fifty-two weeks‘ or a year's travel makes 6.240 miles. In the thirty-eight years Williams has been on the job he has cover- ed 237.120 miles.

Reeds more like an endurance test than a hobby, doesn't it? Nel- son doesn't think so: otherwise he'd have thrown in the towel long ago and devoted his time to his farm. So, you ace, there ie a difference be- tween ajob and a hobby. In the can; of a job one works for his bread and butter. ‘But with a hobby you work even though the butter and bread never come your way. And, believe me, they very often do not.
