During one of the sweltering days of this week, business called our reporter to this old “Path of Ponds," and the trip was made awheel.

If. is quite evident that oilieis have noticed the same thing as We were informed by one short time ago there were more than 1 dozen houses for sale or rent, now they were all taken but one, most of them being seemed by out-of town peo- ple. It is here that Grace Home-in the Fields is located and a charming and Ittractive place it is too. And just at this season the neighborhood is made joyous and lively by the merry voices of hundreds of Fresh Air children as they ramp and frolic in Vthp fields and. by the roadside. It is no wonder that Chief Ponus lived to a good old age and died happy While it has lost none oi‘ its. original beauty, it also retains its healthfulness, which fact is borne out by the statement that within less than half a mile there are three neighbors whose combined ages foot 11p to more than two hundred and foutr- six years. The first is Mrs. Charlotte Hawkins, now in her ninety- 1 third swear; the second is George 181 Scoileld who passed his eighty— ninth milestone only a few days ago. and the third is Mrs. Grlssey, mother of Mrs. Lori S Weed who is more than, people are able to walk about, make the evening of their days are enjoying the rewards of a Wellspent life. —~Mes. sensor. ’ W DON'T FAIL we TRY THIS.
