ELLEN’S DIARY
Visitors Delighted With
Beauty Of O
While the Fair Week is now only a spent dream its impres- sions and memories still lingen They come back to mind as we go about the cares of our day that after all, as James husband of ours reminds us teasingly, are no more than-enough to keep us exercized.
There are our household duties lightened unbelievably _by the coming of electricity to the farm; and \the care of the plants with out which we would find rooms and yard extremely bare and col- orless. There are the families of the name to entertain at times and enjoy, and also so good to see are the kin and friends and the stranger who happens by our door. At a plantive bleat we may also carry a drink to what Alex terms ‘‘the lambie-goat’’ or for auld lang syne, a pair of man- gels or other treat to the fowls in the poultry yard. A calf of mixed breeding too gets pails at our hands even though we suspect she is apt to become, ‘‘Daddy’s cow” in the end. Such ftems & not exactly work in James’ mind serve to fill our summer days satisfyingly full and plea sant.
So' scenes of The Fair return to us here in the quiet of our every day round. We recall to wonder over their lives because each is an interesting tale, the strangers we met there, hitherto! only names to us-dt in some in-| stances wholly unknown: those from the other Provinces and The States we would have ap- preciate and enjoy the delighfs our Island offers and take home with them nice impressions of it and its people. And what satis- fying compliments on behalf of both we were privileged to hear.
“Tt’s the prettiest island” one said. ‘‘We love it! And the folks- why they remind us of those in the South. They always have time to stop to chat with the stranger-to explain something puz- zling, to direct us here or there, or maybe just ‘talk Island’ to us.”
“We have fallen in love with the Island on this first trip, It’s so green and pretty. And the folks are so friendly. We plan to return next summer, if all goes well” another said.
And \another: ‘‘We came last summer for our first visit and liked it so. well We bought a cottage. Islanders by this?’ with a happy smile, ‘Yes I believe we are! Like it? How can we help it? It's so lovely a spot.’”
And Island hearts warm at the sincerity expressed. And Island are fairer to us home-born, the summer sky more blue, the crest- ed seas our birthright more

sparkling, the red of cliff and by- road an especial shade, and ev- erything dearer to all.
We recall too of The Fair that James (Bless h'm for his inter- est and care and concern of herd and flock and family)! nodded, and a ghost of a smile lit his face for the moment when the herdsire won honors in the show- ring in the company of the sleck animals paraded there. In all the cattlerings were pictured animals, to the mind of this farmwide: trim pretty jerseys, attractively marked guernseys, grace of the . Ayrshire, great handsome holsteins; sheen and shades of\ the shorthorns, great- ness of the hereford, fascination of the red poll, charm of the Angus. . .and all, every last ani- mal of every breed obviously the pride of the farmer or herds- man. There was the mornning. . . But.
