if we could make it at least $4,000 by
Christmas? We can, if we take ad
vantage of our kind editors plan,
for then We will have not only money
for our personal Christmas gifts, but
money to help this little girl to a
better, happier life.

Hello, there, everybody: Will you
give me room in your charming cir
Gle for another north Georgia
Cracker? I want to sit by Ethel
Calhoun,
Now, Aunt Julia, what shall ]
take for my subject? Oh, yes,
know, I shall take for my subject
the little orphan, Inez, that the
cousins are so kind to. Aunt Julia
and cousins, you know not what a
worthy character you are sending
your nicke1s and dimes to when you
send them to Inez. I have attended
the school where IneZ is for two
years. When she came to the Berry
schools she knew practically moth
ing in books, but now she gets train
ing under skilled teachers not only
in books but in cooking, sewing and
housekeeping and almost everything
a. girl needs to know. Cousins, !
have heard Hiss Martha Berry men
ton you in her talks, Continue to
help lie Inez all you can,
All cousins write one whose birth
day is April 2S. Sent photos. My
age is between 16 and 81. J. II.
Myrick come again.
Lovingly,

Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Will you
please let an Alabama girl of seventeen join
for a chat? l have written before but was
not admitted. Almost all the cousins talk
on subjects, so guess I'll take DUTY as
Christians" for my subject. OF course we
all have duties works that must he done
around our homes and the duty of Chris
tian is far more important than just the lit
tie chores of our earthly home. CHARITY
begins at home" and il we don't do Oui
duty atNlome, we are not very liable to do 1t
abroad. Jesus Christ came from heaven and
gave His life freely for YOUR sins that we,
through Him. might have everlasting life
with Him. This is just one of many rea-
sons why I believe in missions, but it is oul
duty as Christians to carry the message
afar, for Jesus left it for us to carry. II
any of you cousins have the book LENA
mill MI 70
take good care of it and pay postage boil
ways, and if You all save electric soap let
ters will lyOu please send me an "S,' and
I'll try to return the favor. Your cousin.

so lonesome ! don't know what to do when
l can't hear the baby around, have beer
married two years and two months the sec
ond day Of October and have a COOL husband
He helps me with my work and l help him
We have one sweet little child, boy seven
months old, his name is Edward Allen. How
many Of you cousins read the Bible? fol
one. l think everybody ought to read it Z
great deal more than they do. There are
people that never think about the Bible a
all. Mrs. @. NJ. Chatwood, l certainly
InOugnL your IeCter was just BrdDu. 1ueIt
isn't better subject that could be writer
about than the word Mother" l feel likt
the word mother, is next to the word God
] certainly sympathize with any one that hat
to give up mother. Ny mother is liyins
and | don t see how | could do without her
but will have to some day, just like /hat
to give up my dear father. He has beer
dead two years and a half. How many o.
you cousins are leading a Christian life
My greatest desire is for the salvation of thu
World | think a
Christian life, of course, ] have my faults a.
lot of others have, but l am trying to leaC
a life that will please God. don't see WHY
so many people Just stay at home and don
go TO church. Just think how sweet it viii
be to enter heaven with a great show of 10!
to our Father bpt how sad it will be to b.

cast into outer darkness where there i
weeping and gnashing of teeth. From a new

Dearest Auntie and All: Please allow M
| space in the Letter Box for a while. l en-
| joy reading the letters so much and hav
| often thought of writing, but could no
| pick up courage until 1 read Mr.. Theodor
| n Skeens letter this week suggesting tina
| some one write on the subject of ''lIOpe.
| 1t seemed | just wanted to say few
| words that subject, as ii seems TO M
| one of the most interesting subjects he coGi
| have suggested to write upon. Hope is tn
| you cease to live; you only exist. We ca
see in very small children their hope o
| being like their parents when they grow M
| They will show it by striving continuall
to do and be like them. 1t seems to b
| continually in their minds, and that is on
of the greatest hopes in child's life. On
reason the earlier part of life is muc
fuller of glee is that there is so much t
come. As we grow older we become NOR
| sober, for it is sad to recall the past, an
| the greater the pleasures we have had tn
| sadder we feel to think of them. But tn
| saddest of all is a lost hOpe-hOpe we hav
| long cherished and lost. Our ambitions ar
based upon our hopes. If we had no hop
| of accomplishing a thing, we would no
| begin it and life would be empty. No mat
ter how many disappOntments we have. w
| still live in hope of a better time. Til
sweetest part of the cup of life is ofte
| the bottom, and we often wonder if ours
thus. 1t is this that keeps us from despair
But the greatest and sweetest of all hope
| is the hope of = home in heaven when thi
| earthly life Is ended. There will Nv 70 dis
| appointments mp there, and no vain hHRos t
| SadIpn when that great bupA
