The line of distinction between letters
of business and letters Of friendship has
become more and more sharply drawn.
Broadly speaking, the abrupt business COM
munication of today is not a letter at all.
Yet most business letters are preserved for
a time. After what is deemed sufficient
period, such letters are destroyed.
But the old, old problem of whst to do
with personal letters still is as perplexing
as ever. A private letter from friend is
bit of that particular friend himself. Not
cold paper and ink are inclosed in the en-
Helone. but aspirations. fears, opinions, love.
