NEW NEIGHBORS I’ve watched your little house grow brick on brick, I’m glad to have you live next door to me; I’ve w’aited anxiously for this glad day When I could see the kind of girl you’d be. I’ve wanted to be neighbor to a bride, And watch her with her things all bright and new As lovingly she tends her little home; And now my wish is really coming true. | ■ saw him take you in his arms If last night; ft saw you kiss him when he left today. And then I heard you singing at your work; And watched you at the store across the way. Your happiness has brought back memories To me of when my little house was new. We’ll be good friends; I’ll help you all I can. Oh, I'm so glad to live ‘ next door to you! —IMOGENE SHANE (In Pictorial Review.) j Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Massey and j daugther, Anne, visited the How- j ard Masseys in Franklinton last j Sunday.
