We are away back in the woods although Tight along the water. The lady slippers are as large as l dollar, buttercups are thick You can look across the bay and see summer homes ' dotted all around the edge. We are just a little way from the end of the Cape Cod canal and the New York-Boston boats go within a quarter of a mile of the bouse. About 9 p. m. a big passenger boat goes down. You can hear the people talk, see them dancing. etc. It is a beautiful sight to see that big boat with powerful seTrfchlights go past. Yesterday morning when went out to empty the ashes, the tide was nearly in. The wind was just lightly rousing the surface and the sun was banked by some clouds. Everything around me was very fresh and beautiful." But with all the beauties there Everett is homesick for Oregon and he would be perfectly satis tied to hear the whistle of the boat that plies the Willamette near his Keizer home.
