GLOVER
A TRIBUTE
To be growing old is delightful when
ones birthday brings so many tokens
of goodwill as came to Mrs. John Nc
Donald of Glover recently. We do not
usually think that old age is a desir-
able part of life but that depends on
where we live. People in Orleans
County do not cOnfine their friendship
to the strength and vigor of youth
Old age has its share. When the first
postcards surprised US, we said we will
write little letter of thanks to every
one who has SO pleasantly remembered
us. But as the number increased, un-
ii. over one hundred beautiful cards
appeared with letters from old friends
and other gifts of value, we found that
we must take this more public way of
expressing our thanks and appreciation.
The courtesy of the Relief Corps ladies
in Glover, the gifts from friends in
Albany, Irasburg, Craftsbury, Troy,
Derby, Newport, Barton and Glover
contributed to make this birthday one
of great happiness which will be re
membered with delight. These kindly
deeds give a new value to life. We
shall not tell you our age but we send
you this greeting, May you each live
to be as old as we are. )" r. V.
