LETTERS AND ANSWERS.

St Joseph's School, Ogden, Utah, May 6.
Dear Aunt Busy-Yesterday the children of
ST. Josephs school were honored by visit from
the Right Rev. Bishop Seaman of Salt Lake City.
We heard great deal about the bishop, and know
he loves children, and often wish the boys of ST.
Joscphs school could have the pleasure of seeing
him once in lifetime. That wish was unexpect-
edlv realized yesterday afternoon, when our good
bishop gave us the incest little instruction good
manners He told US should be like bottle
not ike black one-but like clean bright ones
and then explained why. He pointed out the rough
corners that had to be cut off, etc. We made the
resolution then and there to try to chop cut all the
corners for we have quite few, and become some
of the bishops brightest and smoothest bottles The
bishop gave us something else. You cannot guess
what it was. If I told you am afraid some of his
other children might feel jealous. Oh, Aunt Busy
it was fine! Why, | feel my mouth water and wish
that afternoon of May might last always. Your
loving nephew, JAMES O'CONNOR.
The dear Ogden boys do not write too often
by any means, but when they do they surely write
something good. ...-...;....-......
Aunt Busy rejoices with you in your delight
at meeting Ri. Rev. Bishop Seaman Indeed he
docs love children and the more they resemble
perfect bottles the better he loves them. Aunt
Busy is sure that the dear Ogden boys will long
remember the bishops kindly lecture and the
treat also.
Aunt Busy is happy over receiving so many
interesting letters this week from the Ogden bot
lies" She misses you greatly when you neglect
her OF course YOU are all trying TO be good dur
ing the absence of dear Father Cushnahan. You
must treat Father Mannion well, too, while he is
with YOU. He also likes good children with good
manners. like the dear bishop talks about

Dear Aunt Busy-James OConnor and Harold
Teasv are writing you about the. bishops visit to
our little school We had the biggest grandest,
finest time we ever had. We promised the bishop
we would be very good and let him know who was
the best, so we are trying very hard. We were
very lonesome since Father Cushnahan left, but
our bishop could knock all the lonesomeness out
of a fellow and make him feel fine Father Man
MON is very nice to us, and comes three evenings
in the week to hear our catechism. He wanted to
scare US by telling US the bishop going to ex-
anime US, but the bishop said no, he wanted
us to have good time-and we did have good
time, thanks TO Right Rev. Bishop Seaman. May
God bless him. Love from all the boys. Your
loving nephew, JOHN MDERMOII
