thanks means; I have never known
what neighbors and friends actually
mean.
you will understand that / have
not failed to appreciate my nelghbors
and my friends-they have been the
Joy OF my life, but actual dependence
upon them and continued kindnesses
from them, coming from scores and
hundreds of people is a new expert
ence for me, and one that has brought
a new light upon life.
For example my next door, neigh
bcr for five weeks has fred nv fur

two noisy boys for days and nights
at a stretch, extended the use Of his
telephone when mine had beer dis
connected, and in addition given us

and all ! could do was lie there and
say, thank you,' not being able to
go on and explain that some day I
was going to get even some way.
"And since 7 have been able to be
up and around the house for a week
| have begun to understand bow 1t
came that 7 didn't die like so many
people did couldn't die! There was
no logic in my dying-dying and leav-
ing my family and Wilmington and
all my friends and neighbors? I'M
possible! 7 have found during the
past ten days what the poet meant
when he said that 1t is only in the
agony Of parting that we look into
the depth Of love.
"They tell me that I went down in
to the valley, where the shadows are
lcng and dark, but the going and the
return have brought new apprcpria
tions of many things--of life, of
home, of friends and of everything.
"I now understand about the 'cards
of thanks as I never did before. I
appreciate the sincere gratitude that
prompts the good people to express
publicly their thanks to their neigh
bors and friends, and let me say, Il

when we turn into the most beautiful
boulevard in heaven, where every
thing gives one the impression Of be-
ing somewhat better and finer and
more restful than any other separate
part of the place, shall ask my es-
cort what this is, and | shall have
a notion he'll say: That's the best

The fly can follow an odor as quick
ly as any four-footed animal, and it
likes foul smells best of all. Its
sense of smell is very reliable guide
to food and breeding places. It is
plain that cleanliness about the
house, barn and the whole outdoors
determines how many flies one is
likely to have. Garbage pals, big
pals, pig pens, rotting vegetables
and the uncovered outhouse should
receive attention in order to forestall
the activities of flies about your
house.
