Anne Hilliker, our popular and con-
genial groceryman, says he hopes his
cheese and crackers and Goldfish will
hold out until the presidential cam

Delightful hours were spent;
The good old horsehair sofy,
The crayon portraits, too,
The what-not in the corner
Filled up with ancient junk:
The stuffed owl on the mantel,
Who listened to the bunk,

When courtin' of your gal.
And life was simply heaven
When l was courtin' Sal.

How l marched up the aisle;
The knot tied by the pastor
Has held for quite while.
The horsehair sOfy's missing.
The crayon portraits, too;
We're living in apartments,
With modern stuff clear through.
The stuffed owl is not with us,
Perched up above the CRATE:
We have no. corner what-nots
For we are up to date
