Models BARRETT'S - FRUITVALE - [SUBAR AND SPICE w There’s nothing quite like a summer in Canada. We have that winter that just goes on and on and on, Then, sud- denly, about the first of June, it’s spring, The fem: perature soars, the grows violently ‘and we cick off our rubbers with gay abandon. Two weeks later, every- body has a cold, the roses triumphantly that Wiarton or someplace had an all-time over-night ‘ow of 40 de; prees on the umpteenth of y the time this appe in print, we'll probably gasping for breath and wane dering when this unprece- dented heat wave will end. Don’t worry; it will. Just about the time you start to get the poisonous juices of winter soaked out of you. And then it will be fall, and idiots like me will be writing columns about that refreshe ing nip in the air, Nip in the air, Holy old Hughie! There was so much nip in the air earl summer that a chap scarcely needed a nip of anything . Oh,” well, I guess it's better’ than living in the sweltering heat of Israel or Egypt. Though it certainly isn’t any safer, as those who. have been on the highways, recently will attest. Why does my wife re- mind me of a flicker?’ A flicker is a bird with a red top-knot. We have one in our backyard every summer. It flops out of a cedar tree, or maybe heaven, and flick- ers away all over the grass, sometimes within feet of us. I think it’s a flicker, though I'm no expert. I can tell a robin from a sea gull, on a clear day, and that’s ‘about well, why does she? She doesn’t have a red top-knot. But she acts like a flicker. The bird runs across. the grass at a great rate. It stops, looks about, bangs its beak into. the ground about twelve times, repeats the Process for some period, then flies off suddenly in all sirections, for no apparent rena that’s why my wife reminds me of a flicker. That's how our vaunted -holidays began this year. I had one day off after ten months in the sausage fac- tory. It was a Saturday, which I have off every week anyway, It seems we had to go and see our daughter, the bride. Right away. Holiday weekend, with all the horror that entails, but never mind. Wedding pictures, Late gifts. How. is she? Is the marriage working out? Motel room?

Lid: Bill Smiley away a the grubs in the ground,_ I was as caught by oatiae just as a grub is by a flicker. -No money and the banks were closed, The car needed a muffler, I needed about three days of intensive care. During the same 24 hours, the flicker had Phoned friends of ours who'd invited us fown to lie around their pool, She had agreed that as soon as we had spent a day or two with the bride, we'd go straight to their place. The bride is about 70 miles north, in the resort area, through hairy traffic. The friends lie about 85 miles south, through hairy traffic trying to get north. No problem.
