CANNOT FORGET THE GOOD TIMES

Dear Social Corner Sisters and Friends: wonder how you all are and if any of you have had one of these nasty grip colds. If so you well know how to sympathize with me, for I am just recovering from a severe one. It has taken the life and strength and that old grip cough Is still on its job. It seemed too bad to lose all the Easter services. music, flowers, etc. It was grat disappointment.
 But my friends did not forget me for l received many cards, two pound box es of chocolates; a dear friend sent me g pot of lovely lavender hyacinths a large pot of beautiful Easter lilies came from the church and they were all fully appreciated under existing eireun- stances.
 thought I would write a few lines and let you know I am still alive and have not forgotten the many good times we have had together. I hope there are many more to follow-and l hope when the good old summer time comes to see you all.
 hope you had a happy Easter. Good luck and good wishes for the good ot the Corner.

Dear Social Corner Sisters and Editor: I will try and write . few lines. I have been silent reader of this paper for some time but could not get up pluck to write. We live in a very pretty city with the ocean all around us. We are living on an island. It looks so pretty to see the boats coming and going all the time. Is it not glorious to see spring here again? But I envy the sis ter that lives In the country in the spring time for I love the country, though I have lived in the city for eight years.

Dear Corner Sisters: These cool days have been to the advantage of those of use who have been chasing the dirt. We can do more work wlth less effort though of course we miss having the house open during cleaning days

Dear Editor and Social Corner Sisters: am asking if I may be added to your long and helpful list of members? I have been an interested reader for all the time have lived here and find your col umns very helpful I will take for my pen name Blackie. Hope 1 have not robbed anyone else of their name
 Chelsea: I have had about as much trouble as an army of red ants eau cause. I tried cucumber peeling in fine pieces, but some of them still stayed and went to a drug store and bought a 15c box of Beterman's ant food and a pow der gun and put the powder in every crevlce available and have not been both cred since.
 Hope you will try this and that it will help you as they certainly are about the worst things I know of
