This week the family have moved to their summer home, and left the exâ€" cellent cook, "Margaret", whom Faâ€" ther hired, at the city home to take charge of it during their absence, A temporary cook, Delia, is hired, but "FPather feels starved". For those who missed the portion juoted last week, these humorous moâ€" ments come from the book "Life With sather‘"‘, by Clarence Day, and memâ€" sers of the Canadian Legion Library may obtain the book there. Section from "Father Feels Starved" The longer Delia stayed with us, the| more alarmed Father became. He atei heartily, as Mother kept pointing out| ;3 him, but he said he didn‘t feel acurished. He said it was no use to| argue about it; he felt all gone inside. | One night after he had had a fourâ€" course dinner, he fretfully got up from the table, went into the library with his cigar, and moaned that he was: starved. His moans were, as always,| fullâ€"throated, and they came from me‘ heart. Every now and then, when his miserable condition seemed to strike him afresh, he laid down his book and shouted "Starved! Starved!" in a griefâ€" stricken roar. t When Mother went into the to quiet him, he told her he‘d be damned if he‘d stand it. "I refuse to be sent to my grave, do you hear me, by that infernal bogâ€"trotting imbecile you keep in the kitchen!" Father was appeased for the moment by the dismissal of Delia. But the next night, when he found that the first dish was too Oriental, ‘he said in an annoyed tone to Mother, "Will you kindly explain to your man Tobo that I am not a coolie?" And after eating the rest of his dinner, he pushed his plate away and went up to his bedâ€" room, declaring vehemently that he was poisoned. He undressed, lay Gdown on his sofa, and filled the air with deep groans,. "Now Clare, a Japanese is coming tomorrow, I told you. This is Delia‘s last night.~I do hope you‘ll like Tobo. He won‘t know our ways right at the start, of course, but he is a very good cook." From time to time he stopped and dozed a little, or listened to what he could hear of our talk. His feeling was that we shouldn‘t be talking at all. We sught to be sitting with bowed heads in silence until he recovered. "Poisoned!" he suddenly boomed, to remind us. "Oh, God! I am poisoned." At this point, Mother who was down in the library laughed. Father hsard her. He jumped un from his sofa and marched from his bedroom indignantly into the hall. "I‘m a sick man!" he thundered robustly. "And nobody in this house gives a damn!" Mother hurried upstairs to see what ho wanted. He insisted on her rubbing his back. Sick or well that always scothed him, and he would have liked her to do it for hours. He loved to close his eyes, with someone‘s hand moving quietly on him. while a feelâ€" ing of comfort flowed into his thoughts and his nerves. V _ She came in a hack from the Harâ€" i‘rlson ‘station. She was an odd sight. Her face looked familiar in her little black bonnet, tied under chin, but she seemed strangely swollen and bulky: she stuck out in queer places; tand as she crowded through the back door, she bruised me with her hard bony hip. Only it wasn‘t her hip, it turned cout; it was her favorite sauceâ€" pan, which was tied to her waist under her skirt. Several large spoons, a dipâ€" l-per. a skillet, and two nairs of shoes were made fast under it elsewhere. In her arms she had some bundles wrapâ€" ped in newspapers, which Mother thought at first held her clothes, but when Margaret opened them we found they contained cheeses, Melons, fresh coffee, a leg of lamb, some sweet poâ€" tatoss. and other provisions. Margaret had no faith at all in being able to buy any supplies in the country. Sm had brought as complete a larder to Harrison as though we were at the ! North Pole. Moiher didn‘t think much of rubbing, however. She didn‘t like it herself. When anyone rubbed her, she stiffened and resisted at once. Consequently she had no idea of the right way to do it. When she had to rub Father, she alâ€" ways got tired of it in a very few minuteées. | Little Margaret pursed her lips rcloselv together and didn‘t answer a*' lflrst Then. as Mother stood Mut,mgf she said unwillingly, "I have me other clothes on me." l She had wanted to have her hands free, it seemed, to bring us something Shegave him hasty little rubs and digs as well as she could, but just as he was beginning to relax, she said, "There now, Clare, that‘s enough." Faâ€" ther was so disappointed by this that it reminded him that he was poisoned, and the only cure he could think of was the dismissal of Tobo. The next day old Margaret was sent for to come at once to the country, and the house in town was locked up and left to take care of itself. "But didn‘t you bring any clothes with you, Margaret? Not even an apron?" asked Mother. Comaurum 'Cons. Smelte Dome Hollinger Macassa Pioneer |Premier Reno Sheep Cresck Teckâ€"Hughes Ventures I Wrightâ€"Harg Power Co.
