Dearest Aunt Julia and Cousins: Will
You admit girl from the dear old state
Of Georgia into the happy band Of cuOsins !?
Many thanks to Aunt Julia for printing my
other letters, | enjoyed the letters ! re-
cpived from the cousins. Cousins, dom
you all think Aunt Julia is the dearest
aunt in the world? She is so kind to give
us cousins so good an opportunity to get
acquainted with each other. Say, Elmer
Bridges, what has become Of you? l agree
with you about our feathered friends, the
birds. Not very many birds do harm. You
men and boys who kill these harmless
songsters think what the world would be
without them, Some men and boys get
mad because farmers post their land so
they can't hunt. 1t is pity that every
farm isn't posted. [ don't see where any
one derives any pleasure out of killing
these SonGsters. Aunt Julia, here are n
few titles for our contest, "Kindnpss, +"
what a Mothers Love Means to Is" "IS
There Any Sport in Killing Birds" DO any
OF these titles appeal to any of You cous-
Won have the following booys please send
them to me. | will return them in good
condition. ''St. Elmo" "st. Nicholas. ="
1.-THE Rising Tide" Please write before
each title, WHO has my birthday. Janu-
airy il: All cousins who are named "Clyde"
write to me, others, too. Lovingly,
MISS CLYDE JONES.

Dear Old Pals o Mine As I'm all alone
ana rather lonesome decided to try for
admlttance to the Box. I've long been an
interested reader Of the Council and have
seen many subjects discussed by the cousins
though as vet | haven't seen the topic of an
"uncontrolled Temper touched upon, so
VIII endeavor to bring it to the attention
Of all. From experience, find 1t better to
keep silent while veXcd or angry. If any
persists in talking, harsh words will he
spoken; one makes place for another: then,
before you realize it, a serious quarrel *
begun. think oil who haven't begun con
trolling their tempers, or considering anoth
erS feelings, aud the words they spesk
when angry or vpXed should begin at once tc
do so. I'm sure all had rather make friends
| than enemies; then treat others as Won like
| tc he treated, and OF the/two ACQUIRED the
| ma jority will he friends Give to the
| world the best You have, and the best vii
come back to YOU Let's all try to speak
| we'll of everyone. When we hear some one
! make an unhind remark of another, try say
| ing something good or nothing at all, and
| You will really feel better Think better Ut
