Anna Blanche ON the Milk Wagon.
Market wagons in numbers were rumbling
| out of town, with now and then an occa-
| sional curious, old-fashioned milk wagon;
and one of several women sitting on
| piazza in the late afternoon said: II never
| see a country wagon without wanting to
hail the farmer and ask him to let me go out
| home with him to stay a few days with his
| family
do you feel that way?" alertly replied
| another woman. $50 do /. Once wagon
loaded with jugs of butterrhilk and ferns
to sell stopped at our gate, and I came
very near getting into that poetic vehicle
and going off, regardless Of consequences
| to my family and husband. Think of the
| alluring rural combnation-lovely green
ferns and jugs of sweet buttermilk."
"Our mikwoman has promised to take me
| out home with her some time" remarked
a third member Of the impromptu country
| club land am looking forward to a de-
| lightful experience"
Zone Of the best rides / ever had in my
life was In a milk wagon, said Anna
Blanche, the young woman of the coterie.
'Our cook had cousin who drove a milk
| wagon, and one evening when my mother
was away from home he stopped at our
gate to chat with Mary. Mary said she
| wished she could take ride, and he said
she could do so-he was making an evening
| milk route. So Mary lifted me up the
front seat-I was four years old-and
climbed in. We had a lovely time driving
| from house to house in the dusk, all over
town, far and near. ringing the big bell
and delivering milk. Some of mothers
friends saw us, and Mary had to explain
the ride to mother. but it pleased me very
much. Never in all my experience of
| wheels nave had better ride than that
| milk wagon ride
