OVER THE
BACK FENCE
By MARGUERITE FINEFRoCK

Hiya Neighbor Mrs. Ogle-
thorpe is all out of breath trying
to catch up with herself this week.
In fact she almost missed the
back fence in her rush, and
wouldn't it have been something
for the records if the old girl
had been hung up on picket!
If you missed the barber shop
auartette doings at the high school
Friday night, you certainly missed
a rare treat. Don't know when
we've enjoyed musical enter
tainment as much as that. 1t was
excellent. If we were a man and
could sing we'd sure join up but
being what we are and not able
to carry tune in a basket, we'll
be content to sit on the sidelines
and listen any old time the four
part thermometers get together.
