is needless TO say that they had a
hard time to find the old place, as
nothing looked familiar along the
way. The avenues and lanes we're
lined with beautiful big trees whose
leaves were rustling softly in the
gentle breezes, where OF old the wind
used to howl along the dusty roads.
The beautiful ranches were sur
rounded by wire fences and lovely
hedges of honeysuckle. Privet and
wild roses were growing just inside
the parkings OF white clover which
lined the roadways. Beautiful little
bungalows and large substantial
barns were seen on all sides. Many
cattle and horses we're grazing in
the large meadows, with the moon
light reflected On the water flowing
along in the bitches. 1t was easy to
see that contentment and peace
reigned over the land and no won
der the ghosts felt so Ill at ease and
were anxious to take their departure
This was no place for them. Among
the ghosts that finally reached the
hall were Sagebrush. Coyote, Lava
Rock. Badger. Jack Rabbit, Hawk
Dust, Lack OF Water, Hog Cholera
Cow Bloat, Russian Thistle, Tumble
Weed. Mosquito. Shack, Lack OF
Shade and the Wind.
