coNcEaNlMo NAN WHO LOVED
~ ehowsd Aneetlon for ev1rybody
and Everything Except Nslohbor
on Party Teisphons Line.


There was once : man who tried to
love his neighbors. He began with
those next door and succeeded IN low
ing them very satisfnct0sfly, although
one Of them kept chickens and the 9TH
or one was rival and perhaps supe-
rior gardener, From these concrete
examples he proceeded to demonstrate
his ability to love the abstract var
riety Of neighbors which includes ev-
erybody and everything. He not only
loved his neighbour chickens, but he
loved his neighbors' garden-even the
arrogant tomatoes that bloomed and
fiourished there while those In his own
garden pined away. He loved the Ice
man and the light and gas and water
men and he would have loved the man
who cleaned the streets II he had been
certain OF his existence.
He loved the gentleman across the
street who tinkered with his motor
car all day Sunday, and no loved the
woodpecker that hammered the water
spout outside his bedroom window at
I'VE O'Clock each morning. He loved
the neighbors' children, although they
pulled his pansies. and he pretended
that he loved the beetles that fed on
the hearts Of his rosebuds. He loved
hot weather and cold weather, and ex-
pressed q peculiar affection for the
weather man.
All these he loved. and many more,
but there was one neiEhbor that he
could not love. II was the neighbor
who was said to be- on the same party
telephone line with him. It IL doubt
full II anybody has ever succeeded in
loving that elusive. ever-present some
body who seems to live on his party
line. II has long been matter Of re-
gret that one half Of the world did not
know how the other half lived. BY
means Of the party line we have found
out all about 1t, and q very unprofta-
BILE piece OF knowledge It has been.
We know too much about the neigh
Dor on our party line. and he knows
too much about US.
This man might have succeeded in
loving his neighbor on his telephone
line II he had met him over the gar
den fence, but they were forever as
saulting each other with unexpected
and irritable 'helloes." and with vehe-
ment requests from each to the other
to get on the line" When he called
up his wife in the morning his neigh
bor's wife answered him, and when
he tumbled down the stairs to answer
his telephone in the night the neigh
Dor sent him back to bed humiliated
And then his wife and the neighbor's
wife met at q luncheon whore the lat
ter induced tho former to listen to .
weary recital Of the telephone habits
Of the folks on their party line" OF
course there was no chance after that.
II seems that It cannot be done. The
party telephone lines connect M too
closely with our neighbors to permit
M to love each other.
