church suppers once so popular had a good run aside from raising cash they had a worthwhile social side that perhaps the rural church today is not maintaining anyway as a boy 1 looked for ward to a good time at the church supper with vision of goodies heaped high my father was usually the chair man for the program he was full of wit and humor and the people seemed to enjoy his leadership on one occasion somebody voted to have a change so they got a new chairman father said he didnt mind but he didnt approve of a woman for the job the preacher said father could bring along a bit of humor and he would be given a place however father said no i didnt like the way he said it and mother was fearful lest he would make up an excuse to be absent well he didnt for lie told us all to be ready yet he seemed to have been in close conversation with my older brother isaac what they talked up i could not find out for they spoke low and would cease talking when i came up i asked isaac and he said oh nothing for little boys he was seven years older than me well we all got to the supper had a big time then the program miss swinton our teacher turned out to the chair lady i sat in the front row below the platform father was up there in the wing so 1 felt he hadnt been badly hurt by being left out miss swinton was in the midst of her opening remarks when she looked downward then uttered a scream two mice went scurryin across the platform it raised quite a furor but the crowd was quieted and miss swinton nervously finished later when the ladies quartette was singing they broke up on the chorus of brave brave some thing two more mice ran across the floor right from the wing where father was standing lies so good at catching mice i wondered he hadnt stopped them ten minutes elapsed before order was restored and the strange or strained singers started again the incident caused no end of speculation on how the rodents were in the church and why they interferred with the program instead of the supper few people ever got the low- down on the trouble but i had my own idea next day when i heard isaac say to father down in the barn i let those other two mice out of the box dad so dont you bother getting the box down again old josh dissatisfied with prices of vegetables at a meeting of the ont ri i county vegetable grower- associa tion held in he county buildings lat whitby
