-=»-..• ••, — a ' . ■•.. ' St. • .. • -.c - aLTHOUGH the life of the pioneer was a busy one, devoted chiefly to the building of his rude sod or log house, and wresting from his crude environment his very existence, a little gaiety now and then crept into his almost monotonous life. Perhaps a quilting bee, a house warming, a spell- down, a debate brought the people together a nd these were enjoyed as social activities. But the one outstanding social function, which most clearly characterized the social life of the pio- neer, was the country dance. The word was passed along for miles that there would be a dance in some home or schoolhouse. Entire families came and soon the old fiddler tuned his fiddle and the dance began with everyone on the floor. No one was too old, too young, too fat or too poor. About midnight the stove lid was lifted ; the coffee pot set on the coals and soon all were eating the lunch of cakes and sandwiches brought by the ladies. Then the dance was resumed til the wee small hours of the morning. — 18 —
