Neighbors Surprised Mr. And Mrs. George Collins.

Mr. and Mrs. Georga Collins, who have lived for some time on North College avenue, are to move soon to Miss Mary Goetz's 10-acre property near the ball park, and their neighbors to the number of thirty-five, all burdened with baskets of culinary delights, gathered at the Collins home Monday evening, surprised the occupants, took possession and proceeded to have a most delightful time, playing games and finally opening the baskets and violating the laws of health by eating over-indulgently soon before retiring. Mr. and Mrs. Collins were given to understand that their neighbors much regretted their decision to leave the neighborhood.
