July 1945
15 Got to church this morning. Bus started running from Ch. Town to S. Side via Dalvey and Rustico. Had a message from Rev CW Jackson of Passadena. He is going to the Island Thursday. A lot of people around to-day. Showery and blowing a gale.
Well, he didn’t come to the Island after all. We had a busy July. 896 registered and have very fine weather with plenty of heat. More playing on the Golf Course. Eleanor Brown and Sylvia Goudreau came on the 27th July.
Aug 24th It is now nearing the last of the tourist season. Have had a terribly dry season and the fairways are brown. No grass to cut for two weeks. A PEI Tournament her on the 22nd. 70 playing. Mr Allen left on Aug 18th for Nova Scotia.
25 Raining this morning and looks as tho’ it would.
September. Harvest early this year and every day fine and dry and warm. Mr and Mrs Gillings at Lornes and have been up here several times. We went to New Brunswick on the 7th and got home at 11:30 PM on the 10th. Had a wonderful trip and spent one day in Canaan. Saw quite a number of people I knew. Been very busy this week. We got peaches, grapes, plums and tomatoes. Anita went to Town on the 14th and

18 Anita went back to Toronto. Washed and ironed some. A perfect day all day.
19 Poured rain all day, just a downpour.
20 Our fortieth anniversary. We took the Bus to S. Side and looked around the stores. Got home around 5 PM and Ralph Burdette took us to Town to a show “I’ll be Seeing You.” A very nice day all round.
23 A fine day after rain and hail yesterday. Over fifty registered. The Jones Family out.
24 Another lovely day but didn’t wash. Heber took the wringer to Town and it may be a week before I get it.
25 Went to Town with Mr & Mrs Coffin in afternoon. Had to walk out to Paulines after walking around Town and pretty tired when I got home
26 Rained some to-day but the men worked. Letter from Anita. She has had her room fixed up nice for her at Knox and was very comfortable.
27 A lovely day but a little cooler. Cranberry picking opened in N. Park to-day. Dad got about three quarts. Transplanted some geraniums and took a few slips. Chicken supper in New Glasgow to-night.
28 A lovely day, quite warm. Not very busy.
