The contest seemed to hang on
personal issues dating back to the

he would not enter into a secret

fact that the morning of the cleo

In Springfield, the train engines
are changed, and at this point, af-
ter sitting there for some minutes,
train workman rushed into our
car, and shouted at the top of his
lungs in Polish. 1t was just as if
we were travelling in a foreign
country. The people in the car
stared blankly at one another. The
poor frustrated man shouted again
in Polish. The passegers sat i'm
movable. You could have heard a
pin drop. The little man probab-
ly then soundly cursed us, for he
jumped up and down, waving his
arms wildly, repeating the same
speel. Finally, he made circular
motion with his finger, still shout
ing. Some bright passenger caught
on. He wanted us to shift the
seats around so we wuld be heading
in the opposite directionl
When we began to see the white
church spires, we pasted our nose
to the window. AS the train came
north, there was more and more
snow; more and more hills. 1t is
beyond our literary power to de-
scribe the country in its white win
ter dress. 1t is just as if one of
those pictures on calendars we
used to hang in the kitchen had
come to life Here it all is-hills
and trees, snow and frozen streams,
making patterns of light and dark,
of joy and sadness.
We didn't take a census, but it is
reasonable to assume that we were
the only 'hoomin been" in the state
of Vermont who was praying for
snow! Well, Saturday morning, we
woke up quite early, looked out the
window-and there it was coming
down! The snow, we mean. We
bolted out of bed, yippeed in a lusty
voice, pranced into our cousins
room, threw up the curtains, click
ed our heels, and shouted "Snow!"
1t was merely due to the early hour
and the low ebb of vitality therein
that we were saved from a horrible
sudden death by violelntl hands.
Well-we got snow-over one
foot of it. Now we are waiting to
see the thermometer go below zero
but we say this quietly, so no
Vermonters will overhear. They |
saw 81 degrees below zero not
many weeks ago-and they are a
trifle sensitive.
This week, we will be visiting
three days at a farm-where we
shall see more snow and more
beauty, where we shall attend a
good old-fashioned town meetin' in
a Vermont village of 200 or less in
where we shall tramp in
the woods and be shown bear
tracks, deer tracks, wildcat tracks
and the tracks we make beating
it back to the farm!
But all about this we will write
next week-if we don't get caught
in bear trap.
