And the barefoot boy you used to be before your sight appears; And you seem just to remember all you used to do and say— When you're t'other side of fifty and your hair is turnin' gray. You just let your fancy travel and it's wonderful how bright "You vaii s.-e .r-our past li!'<- pictured

CVT) - nmum .■’ t•’■••,« -i gftt ■ As you sit alone and ponder as the sunset ends the day When you're t’other side of fifty and your hair is turnin’ gray. From the (picture that's presented not a single detail's missed. All the things you took delight in written down there in the list; Oh. your youthful life was happy, you were cheerful, blithe and gay— Now you’re t’other side of fifty and your hair is turnin’ gray. Boatin', swiminin'. rabbit huntin’, fishin' in the shady pool. Skatin’ on the pond in winter, sleighin' on your way to school. How you’d like to be a kid again and with fellers play. But you're t'other side of fifty and your hair is turnin’ gray. So things went and time kept flittin' — boyhood grew to man's estate, For the days refuse to tarry—none can slay the hand of fate; Seven, ten, fifteen, and twenty, thus the good years slipped away- - Now you're t'other side of fifty and your hair is turnin’ gray. ’Twasn'l always cream and poaches in those days so long gone by— There was now and then a trouble, sometimes laugh would turn to cry; But the good Lord has watched o'er you and has brought you on your way 'Til you're t'o'hcr side of fifty and your hair is turnin’ gray. —J. H. Larimore. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Helm entertallied at dinner yesterday for Mr. and Mrs. Eno Lankomni and family and Mrs. Kate Burdg, of this city.
