TWO NEW FRIENDS.

Dear Daddy Jim:-Here come two
little Georgia girls. We are eleven
and thirteen years old. Papa takes
The JeffersOnian and the Magazine,
and we like to read The JeffersOnian
and the Magazine, and the Postcard
Club. We live on a farm, and do not
think we would like to live in town
We go to school every day we can.
Our teachers name is Miss Gertrude
Crayton. She lives about a mile
from us. We will answer some of
the riddles asked by the boys and
girls. The answer to Carlyle Giles
is: One man had five sheep and the
other seven. The answer 10 the 9TH
er riddle is a wheelbarrow We
think the answer to Zeenie Huff's
riddle is pair of firedogs, and the
answer to Dewey Campbell's riddle
is Tom Watson's weekly Jefferson
ian. We will ask riddle: Two
legs sat upon three legs, with one
leg is his lap; in came four legs, ran
away with one leg; up jumps two
legs, catches up three legs, throws
them at four legs, and makes four
legs brink one leg back. To all who
answer this riddle, we will send
post-card.-Yourn new friends, Willie
and Eva Sullivan, Silver Creek, Ca,
Rt /.

GET YOUR BIBLES.

Dear Daddy Jim:-Here I come
again AS it was raining and snow
ing today, and I could not go to
school,, I thought l would write to
The JeffersOnian. I have just been
reading the letters from the Post
Card Club, and l noticed one where
Florence Smith said she wanted the
Club to write questions on the BIZ
BILE, and quit asking riddles. I think
that would be much better. l will
answer one Of her questions: Moses
was one hundred and twenty years
old when he died. He died on Mount
Nebo. Let me ask you some ques-
tions: No. When the first alarm
of the trumpet was given, which
tribes marched first? No. 2-Who
tasted forty days and nights? No.
How old was Hezekiah when he
began to reign? No. 4-How many
titles does Isaiah attribute to the
Lord Jesus? I think I can answer
Sarah Ponder's riddle: No. IA
yard gate. No. 2-Fire-tongs. The
answer to Miss Flossie Jacksons
riddle is a cow-bell. I will close,
with best wishes to The Jefferson
ians.-Willie Hutcheson, Temple,
Ca, Rt. 8.

WELCOME TO THE CLUB.

Dear Daddy Jim:-This is the
first time we have written to the
Postcard Club. Papa takes The
Jeffersonian, and likes it very much.
This is a cold and stormy day, has
been showing and sleeting. The
earth and trees are all decorated
with ice. Papa made us stay in the
house all day. We are two small
active boys, seven and nine years
old, in the first and second grades.
We love our teachers very much.
Their names are Misses Angie and
Annie May Burden. We have about
sixty pupils. We like to go to
school very much. We play ball.
We have a good Sunday-school and
like to go very much. Will close,
with best wishes for The Jefferson
ian.-Clay and J. T. Seymour, Bow
man, Ca, Rt 2.

ANOTHER TOM WATSON BOY.

Dear Daddy Jim:-We are staunch
friends to Tom Watson. The Jeffer-
sonian is our favorite paper. I am
dead-anxious to hear Mr.. Watson
speak. Father and mother have
heard him. I have never been to
school, except five weeks last win
ter. Mother teaches me at home. I
am eleven years old and am in the
fifth grade. When I get through at
home, am going to the Agricultural
College. I am always ready to tell
people that I am named for Tom
Watson. What is the first thing a
gardener sets in his garden? Why

BIBLE QUESTIONS.

Dear Daddy Jim:-Will you ad-
nit little Mississippi girl into your
happy band? 1t seems that there
are not many letters coming from the
little folks down in this part of the
State. Hello, Miss Smith! ap-
prove of your plan of leaving off the
riddles and taking up Bible ques-
tons. 1 think they will be more in
teresting to some of us, if not all,
and probably do more good. l will
answer one of your questions.
think Moses was one hundred and
twenty years old Well, l guess l
had better close and leave space for
some one who can probably write a
more interesting letter. | will go by
asking a question:: What Bible char
acter was the father and grandfather
of his children? Good-bye.-Verna
Boydston, Plattsburg, Miss.

ANSWERS TO RIDDLES.

Dear Daddy Jim:-Will you ad-
nit little girl eleven years old, in
your band of boys and girls? Papa
takes both of your papers. He is
also an agent; he sent off six sub
scribers this week. I live in the
country and like it very much. My
father is a farmer. He raises cot
ton, corn, potatoes and syrup. I will
answer some of the riddles asked last
week. Zeenfe Huff's was fire-dogs.
The answer to Carlyle Giles was a
churn. The answer to Stella FARES
was air. Now / will ask one: Down
in the garden was a little green
house, and in that little green house
there was little white house, and
in that little white house there was
little red house, and in the little
red house there was lot of little
negroes. I have three sisters and
three brothers.-Your new friend,
Della Coggin, Brooks, Ca, Rt. 1.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1910-03-10

writing that I couldn't put it off any
longer. / have black eyes and dark
complexion, and dark hair. I will
answer Florence Smiths Bible ques-
lions. Moses was 100 years old, and
was buried in the Land of Moab,
over against Betheror. I will ask
her a Bible question: Who was the
second son of King David; what was
his name? What was the name of
the mother of King Solomon?
think myself they had better quit
asking riddles, and ask something
else. We think there is no paper
like The JeffersOnian. I am afraid
of that basket.-Dennie Self, Thorn
aston, Ca, Rt. s.

corner; seven cats in front of each
cat, and cat on each cats tail; how
