| Dear Mrs. Bland: / have just An
ished reading most remarkable ar
ticle In the Nashville paper about thu
size Of your family. 1t Is almost too
wonderful TO be true. Imagine beina
the mother Of such splendid number
Of children. am sure that when you
see them oil together yo0r breast
swells with pride. What . pity that
morn women could not know the joys
Of having such . grand family. How
1 I envy youl i am . spinster and have
never bad any. children, but dearly
l0ve them and lows 70 play with them.
Just imagine having thirty-four to
play With Wonderful! Please do
send me : picture Of the dariings ]
would csrtaialy appreciate It,
Dsvotsd!y yours.
Mr.. Bland epined that the forego-
ing lettar must have been written by
nut" She might love 70 sit and
play with thirty-four children he
said, "but ! wonder how shs would
like TO wash and cook for that
many7" A Kansss mans letter sug-
gested that he felt Mr.. Bland had got
him into trouble. His hitter reads:
Dear Mr.. Bland: In reading the
Des Moines paper yesterday ! came
across an item which stated that you
were the father Of thirty-four chill
dren. Incautiously, read the Arti-
Gle aloud, no that my wife could hear
1t. | wasn't paying any attention to
my three little girls and four boys,
but 1t seems that they were very
much interested In 1t. That night
when ] went to bed, they said their
prayers ~ usual, and the boys added
postscript TO the effect that they
hoped God would bring them thirty
four little brothers to play with. My
wife had = narrow escape from apo
plexy when she heard them. She's .
great believer in the power Of prayer
and she cried most half the night. |
Just wanted TO tell you about the trou- |
bic and worry you caused as. My wife |
won't hardly speak to me, although |
goodness knows what I'VE done. II |
| should have thirty-four children in |
my family just want to tell you that
! will hold you personally responsible. |
Very truly yours.
A man Of seventy-two rufflsd the
bland Mr.. Bland somewhat by asking
many questions involving multi
Lude Of facts and figures. He wanted
10 know at what intervals the Bland
children were born, what they were
led on, what the annual clothing bill
vas, and lot Of other things Of an
intimate nature. Bland remarked he
couldn't understand why an old man
Ihould want this Information, adding,
It's time he was dead, anyway"
)ne letter writer wondered how the
ather managed TO buy Christmas
PRESENTS for all the children, and a
New York piano house kindly sug-
rested the purchase OF a piano to
lelp amuse them. Mr.. Bland COM
nented that a piano in his house
would last about as long as bag Of
around an elephant. A Phil
delphia publishing house offered to
ell book on GLOW TO Raise the
ihild" Mr.. Bland regarded this Of
err with scorn. "I'll bet he's never
cen the father Of thirty-four chill
ren," said he. and added, "If I'd rails
d my children according to his
eachings they'd probably all have
zen dead by this time" II
Mr.. Bland fshed out another let h
or from the pile, from soldier who |
nd been in France and opined that !

LIBERTY BONDS
LEADERS IN RALLY

NEW YORK, March 17.-Improye
ment continued in the bond market
today. affecting all classes of issues.
At the same time trading kept on
with the brisker pace set yesterday.
Liberty bonds were 10 to 20 cents
further up all around. They were
obviously feeling the relief of the
end of the taxpaying period and the
consequent cessation of tax selling.
The better tone extended to- the
foreign government group. There
was especially heavy trading in the
French republic SIS at 9S. which meant
a recovery of a point from the recent
low.
Swiss IS were also stronger At
1929 The same accumulation that
has been going on for some time in
the city of Paris IS was again eyi.
dent, carrying them up to 96k. These
bonds are being bought in. like the
Anglo-F French 5s were. as largely as
possible in the open market .prepara :
Ftory to their general retirement or
conversion. into new issue. -.
