Dearest Auntie and Cousins: Please some!
for little chat Thank you ever much
I've been a silent reader Of the Letter Box
for some time. but just conldn't be silent
any longer. Oh, yes, live on the farm End
find farm life very interesting. My home
is in the state of Alabama. and in ST. Clair
county. This valley is called Berver valley
and is the most beautiful valley | almost
ever saw. The soil is very fertile. We raise
almost all kinds of grain, also cotton and
all kinds of vegetables here. Truck farm
ing is carried on in some sections to large
extent. This is another cousin that enjoys
outdoor sports. especially kodaknS and
boat riding. There's creek running within
hundred yards of the house. So you see
l don't have to go very far to go boating.
There's many beautiful places for kodakns
here. I'm also lover of flowers, but
/ haven't many and I help with the house
work and for pastime tat and crochet. 1
believe l could almost live on reading. Here
is poem I'm fond Of:
! Live in the sunshine, don't live in the gloom,
Carry some gaduess the way to ilfume.
The world will be gay If you do your part.
Live where the joys are, and scorning de-
| feat,
Live as victor, and triumphing 90
Through the queer world, beating down every
/ foe
Live in the sunshine. God meant it for you,
Live as the robins, and sing the day through.
