THE ACCOMPANYING Garden
Graph shows one solution for a
steep driveway and steps, which is
doubly desirable where space is
limited. It fits especially well in
informal surroundings in wooded or
hillside home areas.
Very rough cement is used on the
inclines for automobile tires, afford
ing a grip in slippery weather. The
walk connects with both the front
and back doors as well as the ga
rage, and is made Of sandstone
slabs. The risers and retaining
walls at each side of the steps are
made of the same material as the
treads.

| have lost my dear companion,
A life linked with my own,
And day by day miss him more
AS l go through life alone.
His faint last wish I would like to
~ have heard
And breathed in his ear one parting
word
Only those who have lost are able to
tell ~
The pain in my heart, not saying,
FAREWELL"
Nothing but memories as l Journey on
Longing for a smile from the one that
is gone.
None knows the depth of my deep
regret
But I remember when others forget.
Time takes away the edge of grief,
But memory turns back every leaf.
A loving thought, a silent tear,
A beautiful memory of one so dear.
Just when life was the sweetest
And you could have lived your best
The gate of heaven opened
And took you home to rest
Just gone ahead to kindle the light.
For us on the long, long trail
To guide our way at the close of day
To the land beyond the VALE
Until memory fade and life departs,
You will live forever in my heart.
