Dear Aunt Julia: Will you admit
a married girl in for a chat this
cold day? What have you cousins
been doing this beautiful fall? 1t
has been so pretty and warm until
a few days ago. Don't you think
auntie is good? Yes, l think We can
all help those that have done so
much for us. I always send some
thing to my dear mother and daddy
for Christmas. They have done so
much for me and they live far away.

thinking of them, but 1 have good

Dnarect A1,ptie and Cousins.
VIII you kindly let me have q
seat by Aunt Julia. Probably some
of you cousins remember me. 1t
has been some time since l have
written to the letter box. Why
don't more of you north Georgia
boys and girls write? How many
of you cousins are going to school?
I for one. I think every boy and
girl should strive to get an edu-
cation.
Cousins, I sure do get lonely
since most of the birds have gone
to a warmer climate. Come on cous-
ms let us describe our homes.
[ live twelve miles east of Cal
houn, Georgia, which is the county
seat of Gordon county. My home
is on a hill just above a creek, and
about one half mile of a river.
Guess most of you cousins are
planning for Christmas, which is on
ly three weeks away.
Do any of you cousins ever get
lonely? 1 never do, as 1 have three
sisters and one brother, only two
sisters are at home now, as one
is away teaching school.
Auntie, I've a friend who is also
writing. hope you have space for
her letter.
Will not describe, myself this time,
but will say I am between the age
Of fifteen and nineteen.
1 would be glad to hear from any
of the cousins, especially those of
Virginia and Florida.
I remain an old cousin,

Dear Aunt Julia: am a little Lou
isiana girl and wish TO join your
circle with the other cousins. Maybe
some of you would like to know
something about this section of the
state, as I am a little French girl
The French settled in this part, and
the greatest portion ( of our parish
speak French. You see, cousins, yol
have counties in your state but ours
are called parishes. We are the only
state in the union that has parishes
instead of counties.
wish some of you could visit
down here. We do not have noun
tains and hills as you have in north
ern sections, but our country is made
Of plains and marshes. [ am sure
I would enjoy a trip out there as
my teacher is from Georgia. Aunt
Julia, perhaps you know her, as shl
attended school in Atlanta. If any
Of you cousins wish to write me-
will gladly answer and tell you mora
about my state I am ten years OF
age and in the fifth grade. Lovingly
A new cousin.

Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins
Please admit two lonely girls. We
