Fair cool all day. Sidney made a rabbit pen, cut some wood in Mallory's woods that he and Floyd White left last winter. Mora and Maud weeded onions at Weatherups a.m. David paid Mora $2.05 for 20 and 1/2 hours work at 10c per hour, did not pay Maud yet. Mora went to Weatherups tonight got 1 qt. milk. Clarence Porter brought their jackets, they forgot in the lot. Hazel Lynch and Vernice Courbat came with Lottie Baum p.m. to deliver the things I ordered off her, namely box tartan tar soap 10c pkg, darning needles 5c, the n.w.comp. she did not bring, someway omitted in her order. Memphis went to mill got corn, Castella to store for vinegar.

Henry Rudeau plowed and draged our garden today. John Fidler called to see Sidney this evening. I told him he would no be home until late so he said he would see him tomorrow.

This has been a real pleasant day but quite a cold wind, colder toward night. Mora and Maud went to school. Sidney and the White boys finished Clint's wood this a.m, had 6 cords, making 20 1/2 cord in all. It cut awfully hard, Sidney has helped cut 72 1/2 cord of stove wood this winter. Sidney, Mora, Memphis and Castella have all gone to revival meeting this evening. Sidney took Mrs. Vinney's boraxine up to her house but she was not at home, so Mora went up after she came from school. Had the very same success. Sidney took two cans of pumpkin up to Nellie Morey to change for some kraut. Maud went and got a pail full after she came home from school. One tulip is blossomed, it is surely beautiful, especialy considering the time of year. They just got home a 1/2 past 10 and the children enjoyed it very much. Cassy lost her rubber.
