We have always wondered what the
Puritans did to pass the long winter
evenings. One Of them, according to
Golden Book Magazine. solved the
problem by self-expression. In spicy
and voluminous diary, Samuel Sewell
recorded the notable events of his New
England life with all the gusto IL not
with the elegance of his contemporary
Pepys. He notes with increasing pride
the birth Of each of his numerous chill
dren; comments cheerfully on their
funerals (Which were almost as nu-
merous) and interlopes pious obser-
vations with charming bits Of gossip.

knew 1t.

Farmer Browns Boy.

He simply crouched in hts corner and

There was gentleneSs in his voice now

Anyway, Farmer Browns Boy was an
old friend. It was better to be caught
by him than by any one else he knew

when Farmer Browns Boy slipped q

him. Gently he was taken out and
