part Of Alabama. We live in the country
ana ike it very much There isn't any
thing more pleasant than to go out on
beautiful spring morning and listen to the
birds sing their praises to God. and see the
pretty flowers so bright and fresh looking.

Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Will Won
please make room for North Carolina girl
IN your happy circle? 1 am like most of
the cousins, live on farm, and like farm
NE fine. AS this Is my first visit, l will
try and not make my letter too lengthy.
Ihere Is a subject I wish to write on; that
is ABOUT powder and rouge. I have been
reading letters boys have written about
powder and paint. l myself use little of
both and don't see any harm in it unless
you go to the extreme in it. Well, as the
boys and men are so hard on paint and
powder, l will just tell you what I am
down ON, and it is something to be down on:
tnat is liquor and strong drink, also 'smok.
ing or using tobacco in any form. Those are
some Of the things that will harm you. If
there is anything I can't stand it is a
drunkard. l have no time to spend with
such boys q tall. If the girls and women
were all like me they would not go with
such boys and men.
Who has my birthday, December 10?

1t is between sixteen and nineteen. All who
wish to write to North Carolina girl, just

y Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Won't you
all let me in for little while this beautiful
spring day? I have been reader of the
Council for a long time, and it seems that
the letters get better all the time. L live
away up in the hills Of North Carolina the
best state in the Union; but most every
body thinks their state is the best. The
crops that grow best up here are wheat and
corn. think we girls ought to cheer
Everett Cook for his decision toward the
powder subject. Don't you all think so?
like to see some powder and paint, but not
too much. 1 guess that most all of you are
going to SCHOOL, My school is out and
am lonesome. I completed the seventh
grade. will go to high school next year.

sure to get answer. Love to Aunt Julia
