AFTER WORDS
Arlan and Linda Bushman

Each word in the clues below can be followed by a different word to form a common two-word phrase. The three added words in turn will form a common three-word phrase. (A compound word counts as two words.) For example, given the clue words SUNNY, MOON, CLEARANCE, the three two-word phrases would be SUNNY SIDE, MOON WALK, CLEARANCE SALE - the added words form the three-word phrase SIDEWALK SALE.
