trary to James‘ e ctations. we did not finish thexpfflweahlng this morning, neither was I able to follow my new schedule with resard to_my Saturday's cleaning. But Jamie and I spent. a delight- ful morning. In after years. I shall not like] be able to l mem- ber an thing about homework done or un one. I shall recall happily, I know. our slow pro ess towards the mailbox. Jamie's og Mutt was our companion on that trip-per- aps no al other our compan- on but iiiste . our one. He. who at. his small plaster‘; wish is quick- ly changed into several other kinds of animal was at this time a fat cow being led off to mar- ket. A long rope. a careless mem- ber of the staff had left in the vicinity of the orch. suggested this. When I ha put dc'vn vari- ous letters and arcels, for the moment, I was ale to assist in attaching it to the animal's collar. At times. when Mutt became in- terested in saucy crows. I hcd ho es of reaching the lane's end q kly. And then because "poor cows get hungry" he was tethered more than once to a convenient stake so that an offerink of small turnips might be given hirn. I may say that those I was obliged to carry to a front porch where Mutt was Bfesently tied to be out of the ra are still untouched. Fortunately for the harvesters. the rain which fell only lightly and briefly did not delay either the hauling or the t-hreshing. which was carried out with out interrup- onf o o n All this d-a-y until the supper hour, when q, cool sunlit breeze swept the tops of the birches and their restless shadows lay about the yard the work was continued. And then came the end of the harvest home. Now we notice that days are shortening and that the fall season is advancing. Only today I realized with dismay the last fishing day had come. Ang- lers were up and down the stream and pond in a fond farewell to- day. Huntsmen too were on the growl. I suspect the stalked our rood of wild ducks, wv o have their resort. the year round not so far from Alderlea. I hope any shots went wild, for these are almost personal property of Jeo.nie's and mine. Yesterday she asked ma: "Have you seen the wild ducks since they have grown?" She ub- served them from a screen of trees. when she helped build loads of grain in the field across the creek. Full grown now. they disport them- selves in the various nearby creeks and waters.

This was a. week at Alderlea. when the recent regular pattern of our living changed almost over- night and we-James and Lfoulld ourselves slipping back to condi- tions wa enjoyed a year ago. how. as then we are alone. Since that time. Judy with her merry lau h and her capable hands and Jule petite and dark and of easy tread. efficient too, have come and gone. In the intervening months, much has come to pas, perhaps more than I had. dared hope. Ail anxi- ous world saw the cause of right prevail against, seemingly almost overwhelming might. And families were reunited in peace and the sound of the word was so good. And some brave lads did not come back to earthly haunts. their spirits going instead to a Valhalla "not ‘made with hands." In the months when Judy and Julie were ours, we saw the interesting and often poignant cycle of life con- tinue in Braeslde and neighboring communities. Babes. like‘ small unopened roses came t0 bfllhml farm houses; good friends ziud neighbors were carried to final resting places in quiet wllnifl’ churchyards and we saw the hap- piness of marriage.‘

Judy returned to school in her native province and Julie went home on Wednesday. when I. as well as the darky cat felt it in our bones that something ominous was going to happen. Her grandfather took suddenly ill and although now convalescing nicely Julie felt oblig- ed to go. We were at our harvest home then, that at Rob's having been completed. as well as the threihing. which nowadays goes hand in hand with the haulin. James. sitting in his arinch r waiting so patiently for his meals (I having leaned too heavily on my helpers of late) tn my owvfl undoing) thought that Julles grandfather chose an inopportune time for his illness with "the dig- ging coming on and all." Ha also entertains a pessimistic view of my ability to c0 e with season ac- tivities at Alder ea. However un- like James. who like all good farm- er's must planin advance. Iakin to the cricket. live one da at a time. Rested and refreshed y a night's sleep that crowns my todays, I meet my tomorrow i'n the morning.

Again, I am aware that the Sab- bath is only beyond the border- line of today. I can sense it in the prevailing. quiet. The young moon peeps out goidenly between silvery clouds. It rests brightly on the pond water, on the mill roof, on the harvest on the hill above. The pattern o.f it all ts so exquisite l so perfect that no matter his feel- ing or skill no artist could trans- cribe it on canvas. My reveries ’are interrupted but no difference. There has been a great noise of |splashing in the kitchen and now v James calls: "Ellen, wherever have you put the towels?" Oh dear. I removed the soiled ones and for- "M. to replace them with others ‘tile had laundered. My short- “nus taunt me at every turn ' "at even at a time like this . 1'i is grandeur w our" oom-

DOTING UNJvUST TO DAUGHTER

Mothers Who Pamper Girls Make Later Life Hard For Darlings One of the saddest things in the world is that the almost frantic

obsession of so many mothers to make their daughters’ lives easier than their own have been, caiues them to do the very things that make life

harder for their potted darlings.

For these motherrdo not try to fit their Mamies and. Sdsiea for whatever fate has in store for them. 0n the contrary." they do ovary- thing possible to lu-lfit them to fight their battle with circumstances.

and this gives us the hordes of whining. complain- ing, neurotic women who just canttake it when they are called upcrl to meet the inevitable hard-

ships _of life.

EFFECTIVE PROCESS OF SPOILING

This desire for what mothers believe to bs their daughters’ happines is the alibi they offer for

spoiling their girls rotten.

“I never had any pretty

clothes when I was a girl. and I am dgtermlyigd

that Sally shall

have them." says Mother, as she

' ts h id. t h rortyflventh pa" all ragély ‘mantles. pa c ed shoes and buys Sally her

"I always had to do the house-

W°fl= and I am not some to let Angelina ruin her minus with dish

water," says another mother.

"l am not going to burden my daughters

down with cares and responsibilities when thev are young" say other mothers who slave over the cook stove, while their huskyxyoung girls

play golf for exercise.

5° W! have the girls who are reared to be utterly selfish and self- centeled and lazy because they have never been taught to think of

anybody but themselves. or to do any kind of work. or to consider think but their own pleasure and convenience.

ally- And if these girls‘

mothers had been their worst enemies, instead of their most devoted

slaves, they could not have committed a greater crime against them Inasmuch as the average mother is an intelligent human being

it is strange that she so seldom tries to prepare her daughters for thd

lives she knows that they are in all probability destined to lead. She acti

knows. for instance. that she can give her daughter no dowry and that Sally will most likely marry a. poor young man on a small salary. but Mother doesn't bring her up to pinch pennies and shop at the bar-

gain counters.

Fwm her infancy up She cultivates crepe do chine ‘i

tastes in Sally that turn her into a bitter, frustrated woman when .

she finds she cannot gratify them.

Mothers know that the odds are a thousand to one that their daughters will have to do their own housework after they marry, yet the number of mothers who teach their girls how to cook is negligible.

They say:

"Oh. Sally will learn how to cook when she has to do it. I

did." And they neglect to add that by the time they had teamed how to make bread that was fit for human consumption and to run a house

011 B blldlet. that‘ had wrecked their husbands‘ di '

s arid soured

their dispositions and had a million quarrels. and that most of his

salary had gone into the garbage can. Yet mother knows that most important accomplishment that any bride can possess is to be th

the

handy with the pots and pans, and the surest guarantee that her mar- riage is going to have the old story book ending, "and they lived hap-

pily evor afterwards."

And. above all. mothers don't. teach their daughters how to got. along with their husbands. They let. their girls go into marriage think- ing that their husbands are going to baby them as Mot-her has always done, and when they find out that they are expected to act like y". sonable human beings, they rush to the divorce courts.

Life is hard for women. but mothers make it harder for their daugh- b”

tors by not fitting them for it.
