Memories Of Long Ago
That Touch NV Heart

MY Dear Mrs. FELTON,: l am another one
of your unknown friends. l have been
reading your articles for many years,
and il has been in my heart long time
to let you know of my appreciation.
'T think it is marvellous for one OF
your age to be able to do journalistic
I admire and congratulate you on hav-
ing retained your physical and mental
strength so remarkably.
cit must be delightful to grow old
when one can look back upon years that
are crowded with things well done, and es-
pecially to be able to do things we'll, down
clear on to the end of the way. I de-
sire to heap up my congratulations and
good wishes that you may be able to do
all your heart strives to do the rest of the
way.
'"Then, too, there is something else l
want to tell you about. l suppose you
can remember when cup plates were
used. l have some and it is of them I
wanted to write about to you. My grand
mother gave them to me and your mother
gave them to her when she was only II
years old. She kept them all through
her housekeeping days. and then gave
them TO me as | happened 10 be her Ia
vorite grandchild. I have owned them
II years myself. l regard them amongst
my most valued possessions, because of
grandmother, and this association with
your family.
Perhaps you did not know her, but
your family and hers lived in the same
neighborhood. She was Winnie Lyon, and
married Jack Morris. He died during the
war, while she lived until Is years ago.
81 think the cup plates are quite pretty
in their designs and the coloring is beau
tiful. You are reminded of opals. I have
seen glass during late years something
like this coloring If / ever see you I
will show them to you.

two days in the week to see the fair,
and she not only made money, but she
saw all that was there to see.
She was a farmers daughter and lived
in Indiana. Her father was well-to-do,
but did not feel able to give her a three
months outing in Chicago, so she worked
her way, lived in a splendid apartment
house, had a good room and bed, plenty
to eat and when she went to the fair
she dressed splendidly. No one would have
thought of the servant question in looking
at her. Northern girls think nothing OF

them in the least as to standing or char

cational agencies to bring teachers and
patrons together, but we need very mucl,
an agency where housekeepers can, find
the help they need and the girls to fill
the places.
