scenes
Fate and fortune have brought
you here,
And your heart still homeward
leans;
Remember —New friends with
time grow dear.
Your joys, your sorrows are of
ours a part,
So. help us to know you that
we may share
This experience of Life, with
open heart;
Welcome Neighbor! We're glad
you are here.”

As “welcome as the flowers
in May” are those, who through
choice, fate or happenstance,
come to abide with us. Because
every person is different from
every other person on earth,
each has his or her own specific
contribution to make to the
community in which they live.

growing ranks of those who join
us in residence, efforts and

This week we are happy to
present Mr. and Mrs. John A.
Porter, who moved Monday
from Decatur into their newly
built home on Linwood Circle.
Actually they do not come as
strangers, for they have been
purchasing the Newton Furni
almost a part of Covington since
ture and Appliance Company,
which Mr. Porter has been op
erating almost a year. He comes
originally from our Northern
neighbor, Canada, where he was
born in Calgary, Alberta; and
his favorite hobbies are fishing,
hunting, golf, and bridge in
which Mrs. Porter shares his
enthusiasm. The Porters have
one son, Dan, who is four; and
they are members of the Catho
lic Church.
“If absence really made the
heart grow fonder, a lot of peo
ple would miss church more
than any place in the world.”
