Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins
Will you please admit two Alabama
girls into the happy circle of boys
aid girls? What are you cousins
doing these days? We are going to
school now and are desk mates but
not classmates. We are in grades
by ourselves. We will tell you al
something about the place where we
live. 1t is a hilly country and
good farming country. We raise
lots of cotton and corn and have a
great deal of beautiful scenery. We
live about three miles from a cave
which is known as Daniels cave.
This cave is on a mountain side
about $50 feet on the river inside.
The caves are large post which look
like petrified trees and a small rock
which looks like an elephant.
How many of you cousins go to
Sunday school? We both go. Lii
liam is secretary; Callie is a teacher.
| We have d nice Sunday school, ana
it is our delight to attend. We have
preaching twice a month and singing
every third Sunday afternoon. What
are you cousins planning for Christ
mas? We are going to have an en-
tertainment and Christmas tree. All
of you come and join us in our mel
ry-making. We will close, thanlinl,
dearest auntie in advance for print
ing our letter.
Who has our birthdays? Lill:an'S
is October 20; Callie's is November
"a Our ages are between - and ID.
Write to us one and all. We VIII
answer. We bid you adieu.

Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins:
Here I come with a knock, knock,
after a few years of absence. [ am
an old cousin and L suppose some
few of you remember me. l want
to thank those who wrote to me,
even though l did not answer all
the letters that I received. / appre-
ciated them, all the same, although
I have not written the council in
long time I thought of you just the
same. No doubt, some of you thought
me a bad" cousin for not answer
ing your letters, but please forgive
me, will you not? Say, S. E. Civil,
come again with your fine letters.
Your lette impressed me so. Since L
visited you last I have had a Won
derful trip. Last year l was away,
going to school in Washington, d. c..
and I must say [ certainly did learn
a great deal, although l did want
to come home Christmas. Those
who have been there know how
nice it is. Listen, I hear Santa
saw "Christmas." Now, you know
what that means. Well L must close
or 7 will break the rule. Next time
I will tell you of the wonderful
things I saw in Washington. All you
cousins write me, as l would IKE
letters from all states. Best Wlshes
from an old cousin.
