the pleasure over the dolls last

Our girls have blossomed out
this Christmas until the rows of
heads looked like a veritable flow
er garden. The faces under the
bows were as happy as could be.
We thought you would be glad
for US to make as many children
aappY as possible, SO when we
had laid aside two hankerchiefs
and a ribbon for each child we
decided to give the other handker-
chiefs TO some other children. We
have a girls day school as sort
OF annex to this school, and to
each of these forty. seven children
we gave pretty handkerchief.
We still had some left, and these
we sent to some of our little schools
ia the country, so you made more
than two hundred children happy
this Christmas.
| hope the JOY that you have
given to others may return to you
and make you have another taste
Of Christmas. Truly it is more
blessed to give than to receive. l
thank all of you in the name of the
Susan Wilson girls.
Sincerely your friend,
