LILLOOET --- This pic:

slaw pace and barely keeps up.

half-caste blood’’ as it basks in
the hol suishine an the banks of
the Fraser, 209 up river fram
Vancouver,

lis dry, hot air is great for
rheumaties and that's why my
mother finds it so delightful.

She'll be eighty-eight on Aug .3
so it is an occasion for a
celebration ... perhaps a little
treason lalic and a ‘wee drap of
the ora'ther’’. Father Egan will
likely drop by with communion
and she will be inundated with
wires, flowers and phone calls
from all over-Canada. .-
because my mother has sure
done a heap of Living’ since she
shook the dust of Kansas ard
came north right after the turn
of the century. AS a malter of
fact, she’s a pretty hard act lo
follow and has been very
outspoken on some occasions,
much to the embarassment of
her family .

‘Mother, if you support that
ding-a-ling Hartley in the next
election,’ I’m going to change
my name to Willie Lippachitz!”’
.. bul that didn't slop her .. -
and I didn’t change my name.

‘When Pierre Trudeau won the
leadership of the Liberals, she
confided with Pierre Burton
who was silting beside her that
no good could come of it: “He

1 isn't strung right .. and should

go in for holy orders.”
However, since Margaret has
produced. a_ lovely family
(“shelled out” is the term she
uses) her estimation of the
prime minister has increased
considerably. ‘
Of course, I couldn't go along
with this thinking and in one of
our eyeball sessions (and we
have quite a few in the Murray
family) before the last election,
she pointed to me with her
crooked finger (them damn’
rheumalics again) and said :
“Just give me one good reason
why you won't: vole for
Trudeau.” And. 1 came back

snappy-like: ‘Well, ri give
“you 9,000 good reasons and they
all come from Peking . - and
how about those Chileans and
that relired Dutch whore.
And did you hear that India now
has the atomic bomb and we
financed it...”

But no maiter, mother called
for a majority government “or
we'll all go down the tube!’ an
that ‘Trudeau will have jJearned
from his past mistakes. .
Hopefully that will happen.

_ As I look back, growing up
during the Depression was & lat

war .. you only re member the
good things about it.) 1 feel
sorry for our present generation
who have never suffered. They
say there is @ generation gap
but the only gap that: Mother
gees is that which is between the
refrigerator and the colour
jelly, Sure, things are not
always rosy... there was that
time when my father was sold
out by the sheriff. . . bul we
never missed a meal and people
were dependent on each other, I
remember going down. to
“woodaris” with Mother and
buying five pounds of buiter

paper bags and string. I was
very proud of my first job. It
was ina sawmill and I was paid

My Father worked on The
‘Province and earned $75 per
week, a princely sum, Quite
often he was given due bills on
various stores in lieu of salary
but this was a common oc-
currence in the Dirty Thirties.
Actually we lived prelly high off

Well, that was no problem . .

Georgie didn't speak Lo us for a
week over thal one.

Mother was a great one to
keep you busy (keeps your
mind off your troubles, she used
to say.) There was always that

Milk the cow, (Topsy), gather
the eggs, slop the pigs, hoe the
