on extended business trips. She
writes them all regularly, but instead
of putting in all her time at the task.
she makes carbon copies, and writes
the letters on the typewriter. In that
way, each one gets all the news OF
the family and the town. The other
members of the family have adopted
the same scheme, and when they
write home, they also write to each
other, and if there lis any word of
special interest to one that would not
be of interest to the others, that is
written on an extra sheet of paper.
In that way, all the family is in
formed on any subject that any one
of the group comments on. 1t is for
all the world like conversation
around the family dinner table, where
all are present and taking part in the
talkfest. A juicy bit of gossip goes
to one and all, and when they meet
at vacation times, there are no inter-
ruptions to explain a bit of scandal
known to one and not to all.
