Perhaps you prefer early morn when Jack Frost, that inimi. table artist, paints exquisite scenes upon your window pane. | Or maybe it’s noon time that you , like—noon on a busy city street t illed with smiling faces and a; cheery greeting from a friend. Bvi ■ don’t you agree that when tc.u I ght deepens into dusk, most "G l;s feel the need to sit back an I relax and let our mem’ries run unchecked to pleasant days and people we have known? “AT TWILIGHT” To us—at twilight, comes not the end of day when dark is ni ;h and darkness steals across the sky; But purple shadows id the dark Paint miniature pictures without a name, and fireflies light •.be night with tiny jets of brillb '. flame. Ami ours is a magic world Now grown so bright with rob r and with gold- an enchan'iug melody of love and happin - untold. And whispered promises drift through The garden of our hearts, At dusk, when twilight starts. Dorothy Ballenger. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Allen and daughter visited in Washington, \. during the holidays.
