for you. ho
Dear Aunt Julia and All the Cousins:
I have been a silent reader of Aunt Julia's
column in the Tri-Weekly for quite whlle'
hut I have decided to join the band of cous-
ms if you will allow me. I think Aunt
Julia's column is much to be admired. If
more of the earth's teeming millions would
regard one another cousins there would
be less distress, less friction, less dlscord
and more love and harmony. Another thing.
if we were more thoughtful, don't you think
we would love each other better! 10 DC
more explicit, If we knew each other
trials, don't you think we would censurc
each other less? Yes, and with love and
burning zeal to help him, we would show
him and help him to get the upper hand
of his trials. No, am not preacher,
but those are just some of the. thoughts
that pass through my mind sometimes.
Generally, I am a rather joVial fellow,
so you see 1 would be rather pleasing conf
pany. 80
Now, If you would like to know more of
me I will answer any and all letters
ceived. Just send your r,rI mail to s

Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Hello, every
body! Won't you let me in for just little
chat? AS this is my first attempt to
write, hope l will be admitted. 1 will not
describe myself. VIII only say l am a
farmers girl seventeen years old For pas
time / work in the field. l can do any
kind of work on the farm, and also house
work and crochet think all girls should
learn to do something else besides work in
the house, for you never know what you
will be called on to do in case of sickness
or death.
Cousins, why not try and write more in
terestng letters, even if 1 have failed. AS
