Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - May 20, 1950, Winnipeg, Manitoba High and deserted. Dry looks our next door neighbor has kindly taken Penny and Bambi to Strathclair with her and Pat is. Doing the cooking for what is left of our two families. We re rattling about a House like two peas in a pod and Are reflecting that it s not the Chester Fields and the drapes and the carpets and the chairs that make a Home. It is the children who troop in with Muddy feet making work. It. Is their Little tantrums their tears their laugh Ter and their sometimes uninhibited behaviour in a world where they Are Safe and secure that makes Cor the Good life As far As we re concerned. It May lie when Penny and Llambi Home next week and Start raising a rumpus that Well both our Dander up and say we wish they were Back in Strathclair so that we can set some peace and priv Acy. But we won t really mean it not a second of it. Our state of mind must be pretty general in Winnipeg. Our children Are scattered far and wide some with uncles and aunts Somi with grandparents some with kind 3y friends even some with Perfec strangers. Such a stillness in the Street it used to be As you Walker Home from work that you Wouk hear War whoops laughter Ani some tears. Not that you paid a or sat Deal of Aucon tin. You accepted them As part of your life As you accepted the twittering Anc fighting of the Birds. Exception not the Rule but. The pattern of Winnipeg life has been disrupted and the sight of children in some pans of the City is the exception rather than the Rule. It reminds me of some elderly friends of mine in they were both childless and they had both come to the time when they thought they d Niove to n warmer Kindlien so packed up and went to Victoria. Victoria seemed perfect for them and strolled about the place Niak Griir its Placid acquaintance. However something was miss ing. They could t figure out it was. Finally it struck them both simultaneously As they strolled along a Street dusk there were no children playing because that Sec Tion of Victoria was inhabited largely by people like themselves who were either childless or who had sent their children out into the they moved Back to Regina and far As i know they re still there hotel has a Shower Penny sends a card in which she says that she has broken a tooth while chewing Licorie. The hotel has a Shower something they be never had before. Baths therefore Are a Welcome Novelty rather than a ritual involving scolding and scrubbing. She Calls attention to the fact that a picture of Strath Clair United Church is on the front of the postcard and. Says rather cryptically i like it the Only one of the family left besides Pat and myself is h in bit which we acquired at eastertide to amuse the child Ren. promptly dubbed her it one Bud Anil we be become so fond of her that to let her go is unthinkable. Rosebud actually follows us around and even perches on Pat s Back As she scrubs the floor. As Bambi puts it in her lisping Little voice in t Rosebud a ridiculous Tine for children. Pat says she you scold your children you spend a Good percentage of your time worrying about them and you often sigh. Of for the life of a often after a very distracting Day Pat and. I turn to our friends who Are single and advise them warmly to stay sets indeed but she s no Susti that Way and Tell them they Don t know How Lucky they a it s All so much eyewash. Its jus a of of Poppycock. We can t Livi without the children and Pat Anc i have been discovering that this week. Penny and Bambi Are a the moment in Strathclair living in the hotel., most of their Little playmates Are away and our Corner of the City comparatively Winnipeg free press saturday.
