morning, noon
We worked hard then , too , but we had time for long walks together across the prairies -- time to sit in the dusk by the water and plan our lives together . We have done well ; we have land , horses , machinery , money . But have we the happiness we knew when we had none of these ? On the contrary , are you not worried morning , noon , and night over your work and your property ? Do n't you complain about the kind of help the farmers have to hire nowadays , and the wages they have to pay ? And if you get more land wo n't all your troubles be increased in proportion ? John , sit down and think this thing over .
