. i Vol. 50 No. 16 Flesherton Ontario, September 17, 1930 W. H.Thu:ston& Son, Proprietors THE OLD STONE HOUSE Hewn stone, it stood, those gilded years Of youthful fire and dreams so sweet When laughter flirts with ready e?rs And lii'e itself is incomplete; The years their steady course have run So placid days from youth's bright dawn; And life has reached its setting sun With still a finger pointing on. Again the old stone house I saw Deserted by the life it knew; No curtain by the panes to draw No warmth or comfort there be- strew But boarded windows, creaking floors And plaster that, long-clinging falls, So sad to dream of swinging doors And silence deep when mem'ry calls. The windows loner have lost their sight, All boarded up as in despair, And dark it stands, as dark &z night CEYLON WODEHOUSE Dr. and Mrs. Patterson and ilr. Herb of Toronto; Mr. and Mrs. J. R.
