Dear Aunt Julia; AS I have
been reading the letters in the
Letter Box for quite while,
seeing so many from girls and
boys from almost all over the
U. S., decided 1 would see if you
all would admit lonely boy be-
tween the age of 20 and 80 into
your happy circle. My parents died
when | was small, and I lived with
my grandfather until seven years
ago. Since then [ have lived by
myself, although I have plenty to
do to keep me busy, as / own a.
five-horse farm and I have to look
after my farm hands.
For pastime [ go out riding in my
car to keep from getting so lone
some. [ would like to get letters
from you Cousins, girls and boys
from my state.
If you want to cheer up a lonely
fellow, let your cards and letters
come to
