Atlanta tri-weekly journal. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1920-19??, 1922-04-08

Aun Julia and Cousins: I hope I am
not intruding by coming so often, but as
I had just answered three letters from my
unknown cousins, will drop a line to you.
They seem to be off the track, but that
is immeteriaI. One wanted to know if I
went to school, another wanted to correspond
with a Mississippi boy. 1 like to write to
the children( as 1 am just boy); they
never will be lead into by-path meadow.
Let's make our letters as interesting as
we can, also instructive, SO that we may
all gain some good from them, and not
take up space in the good old Journal for
passtime. Wishing Aunt Julia and all the
cousins health and happiness, your friend,
JOHN LATHAM.

Dearest Aunt Julia and Cousins: How is
everybody this cold morning. am all o. K,

that 1t would be nice for you to have a
quiz box at the end of your letter, and am
sure all the girls would appreciate 1t very
much. Guess most Of you cousins remember
me, don't you? As 7 visited the Letter
Box a little over a year ago and received
many nice letters, and hope to receive many
more this time. Auntie, l am going to
watch for your quiz box, so good-by.
