Dear Daddy Jim:-Here l come
for my first time, and if l don't see
my letter in print, will try to do bet
ter next time. My father takes Mr..
Watson's paper, and thinks he is

A TENNESSEE COUSIN.

Dear Daddy Jim:-Please make
room over in your merry corner for
Tennessee cousin. I have been a
silent reader and admirer of your
merry page and the entire paper
Father thinks it is the finest paper
on earth. He is always giving papers
to some one and trying to get them
to subscribe. I like to read the Mag
azine, also, and agree with Mr.. Wat
son on the Mission question I am a
Baptist, too. Well, cousins, let's see
it we can't write on some subject. I
will take for mine "Our Aim in Life.
We should have an aim to what we
are to be in life, just the same as we
would to prepare a lunch for picnic
or anything else. If we would take
our aim and work to it, we would
accomplish much more While we
are young school boys and girls is the
time to choose what we aim to be in
life. But the best and first of all is
to become Christians. There's no
better thing on earth than to be
child Of God, to have your name
written in 'The Lambs Book of
Life. Some of the cousins asked
Bible questions, and I would answer
some of them, but haven't time as it
is bedtime. I must bid you all adieu.
Hurry up, Maggie, and write letter
to the paper. I know you can write
nice one. Best wishes to ALL
Your new cousin, Julia Hardin, Co.
rinth, Miss.
