From Lucille S
Diary


were motoring along Ia,
north shore ] said to Arthur. This
is the time of the year when ! most
miss not having a country home
wouldn't II be delightful to get out
Into the woods now for a few days
TO enjoy the Autumn foliage
81 love the Fan, too" said Arthur
When I was boy I used to think
my October visits at Red Roof, Uncle
Horace's country place the most FUN
OF any But Uncle Horace and Aunt
Della don't stay late in the country
any more
Wouldn't 1t be delightful" sug
sested IF We cosId go out to Red
Roof over sunday Betty and Uncle
Bob could chaperon us and we could
have a two or three days picnic But
ord people are 80 fussy about their
possessions that suppose your un-
Gle wouldn't trust YOU with the
place
"Of course ned trust me-" declared
Arthur. Uncle Horace isn't the
least bit fussy He's as jolly an old
boy as ever lived"
Well then shall We get I'd the
party for next Sunday" l asked
Wed better take advantage of this
fine weather"
So We immediately began to make
our plans. You'd better invite some
man IN addition to Uncle Bob ! ad-
Hised because suppose the water
has been disconnected and there vii.
be lot of pumping to do and heaps
OF wood TO bring in for the open fires
lf there's a large enough party no
one Will have TO work very hard"
What wonderful little manager
you are, LUCILLE exclaimed Arthur 81
admiringly that ! felt ENCOURAGED to
suggest other arrangements
