Hello Cousins:
Everybody seems to be enjoying
themselves fine, so we thought we'd
come in for a few minutes.
What are you cousins doing these
fine autumn days? Yes, most Of us
are going to school and, cousins, do
you think we could do anything bet
ter? You know an education means
more than we really think. And may
be we will realize it when we are
older.
Oh, cousins, you know another
year is almost gone. Christmas is
going to be here in a short while,
and how many will be glad. We see
one, two, three hands go up. Yes,
all. SO let's get busy and exchange
presents. DO you all like that? l
think it would be nice.
Cousins, the frost has been coming
and almost all the trees have shed
their leaves and gone to sleep for
a long winter nap. The tree contest
was real good and our congratula-
tions go to the winners and also
those who did, not win. All the let
tiers were just fine, but we think we
should care more for the trees than
we really do. VIII you all agree
with us?
Well, We'll tell you all about where
we live. Our home is in northern
Georgia, which, we think is a very
beautiful place. From where we
live you can see the Blue Ridge
mountains. 1t is very beautiful
scenery. This part of Georgia is
60, i,r
raise almost any kind of vegetables.
For pastime, we read, write, play
the organ, help our mothers and
study our lessons.
Hello, there, Riddles from North
Carolina and Alabama. Pardon us,
for we did not see you at first, there
were so many cousins, and 1 think
you are a wee bit bashful and tried
to hide, anyway. If you see this,
write us.
Pardon us, auntie, we didn't mean
to stay so long, but the cousins were
so amusing we forgot ourselves.
So write us one, and tell us about
your plans for Christmas. Our ages
are between fourteen and eighteen.
Send our mail separate to:
