Dear Edltor.l was much surprised to
find my essay on The Father OF Our
Country on one of the principal pages of
The Times Dispatch and would like TO
know your reason for putting 1t there.
Now. editor. 1 want to suggest a little
plan that have thought about for the
correspondence column OF the page. which
/ think would give u more interest. My
plan is. that the members write letters to
the club members sometimes. Now near
some one saying, why not write letter
to tho person addressed to their homes?"
Because. lrst 1t will enable one cl,lh
member to write to the rest OF the club at
once: second. It will create interest and
third, It will also enable members to hear
from, each other o:tencr. It Will be some
what OF post office. where every one will
get mall. Well, editor, I know you arc
getting tired of this mess. so VIII say
goodby. Your interested member.
