"But when we started looking, . she wouldn't set- tle for anything less than a five- room house. She considered only the most expen- -.sive furniture, She decided my clothes were not fine enough. "And people, (She quit three jobs because she couldn't get along with her co- workers.) al "Now that we live alone, she wants me to come home earlier, be- cause she gets lonesome during the day! ! "I have tried leaving her money. to. run :the 'house, But when the month is up, she hasn't any left to pay - the : bills. 'Her mother (who After all is said and. done, | does it taste in the cup?

"Well, not quite," I answered, and then remembering this. other woman also came from the country I added--""How about ° you?" She laughed--?Yes, 1 "de- served that _question--but jt seems. every "time I come downtown I meet you in oné or other of the stores, so I just wondered , . . thought maybe you had moved to town." » FY * , ' That started me thinking--just wondering if I did make 'alot of . unnecessary -trips, I remembered the gas-rationing - days--when I never made a trip to" town unless it 'was. absolutely necessary and always found it quite easy. to keep well within my gas ration. But now, - although .I begrudge the time it takes to get dressed and go down town, yet I do go quite frequently ----on- Saturdays sometimes two-and three times. Take last Saturday, for "instance. Business at the bank-- so 1 had to go down in the morn- - hours - being from 9:30" to 11. At the bakeshop we have a standing order for fruit buns on Saturday but they are never ready before 12 o'clock. Na- turally 'I couldn't wait for them-- there: was 'dinner to get at home. So 1 picked up a few groceries and ambled back home-. .". I would have to go down later. * . N About 4:30 1 set out again--and I had to hurry because the library closes at five--but 1 thought 1 cold change my books, pick up the 'buns, 'get the evening paper and "be home in plenty of time to get supper. 1 got the books and buns but the papers were late coming in. 1 waited and waited, determined not to make a third trip downtown, That way 1 saved-on gas but 1 wasted a lot of time and barely had supper on the table before the men came in to eat it. : * * ' Or take any other day, Very often if 1 miss the overnight mail I take my letters to the 8:50 train in the morning. Occasionally Part- ner has said--""You might bring me so-and-so from the drugstore." Without thinking | agree. But then 1 find the drugstore: don't open yntil 9:30. Oh: well, at least the butcher store will be open and I can get served there in a hurry at this time-in the morning. But one man, is very much occupied with hacking up a side of beef and the other fellow is constantly at the telephone taking orders for the day, Eventually they get around to serving .me. Perhaps another day I am busy at a paint job and leave my trip to town until around 5:30. There are only a few things to get anyway. But, oh dear, the town is. busy--you .don't know which place to go first becausc they all close at six, So 1 start at the post office but get behind two people, both - wanting. money orders--and making. 'out money orders is slow business. From the post office | go from store to store and appar- ently I'm the only one in : hurry --certainly the ones behind the counter are not. Jell,- might as | well take back an evening paper ~--they are sure to be in by this time. "Paper?" says the girl at the drugstore--"Oh, I'm sorry--they came in early today and we have n't one left!" I give up and go home, : everyone is on an eight-hour-day town carly and you have to wait for thé stores to open. Go late and you have to rush around to get "everything - you 'want doors close for the night. Back in those leisurely days when the main purpose of the storckeepers and their assistants' was to serve the public rather than beat the time "clock, then you could do all your --business--on-- just ome trip to town, 1 In. fact it was often possible to make only one trip a- week: by using a little forethought. In fact - I do that even yet in. winter-time as 1 get Bob to pick up my orders then, _ pany coming and _going all. the time, I like to do my own shopping.
