Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: I have
come to join your happy circle once more.
| Hope you won't think 1 have come back
! too soon. Aunt Julia, 1 thank You for
printing my other letter and also the
! cousins for their nice letters. | will take
for my subject Kindness" Cousins, don t
you think if we would be kind to every
one we meet this would be a better world
! than it is now? But the worst of all some
Of the people think they are little better
than the rest, so they will 20 by them
and don't even speak. You they have
| not enough kindness about them and that
Is the reason why the world is like it is
today.
Be kind to all dumb animals is another
good thing to remember; when the boys
hear little bird saying chirups they will
| run to see what is the matter when they
find it, instead Of taking it home and put
1t IN a cage, and being kind to it they
Will Kill it. They don't even stop to think
that the dear little birds life is as dear
! to 1t as their lives are to them. They
think that since the poor animals can't
| talk they can treat them any way, but they
viii have to suffer for it sometime. So.
think il we all should think of kindness
little more than we do now this would
be better world.
And the last of all be kind to all the
ola people, just stop and think that they
| have lived here all the past years and
how 1t would look to mistreat them. If
you do them kind deed they will always
remember it. l hope some day the young
people will show more kindness to the old
ones than they do now. Come on, South
Carolina boys and girls, the other states
are getting ahead of us. Aunt Julia, I
know | have broken the rules. Please
print this. All you cousins write me- l
Will try and answer all received.

OF the man named Chrysostom, who died
many centuries ago. who was so eloquent
that the people gave him the name of
Godenmouth.
Now cousins, as I undertake to write a
letter to the dear old letter box l feel that
need to have . golden mouth, and that
mouth full to the lips with most eloquent
phrases to be equal to the present occa-
sion. Cousins, l certainly do enjoy read
ing your interesting letters that appear
each time in the dear old letter box of The
Journal. L will take no certain subject 10
write on this time, as this is my first at

May charm us while,
Hearts that are lightest
And eyes that smile,
Yet DER them above rs,
Though nature beam
With no one to love us
How sad they seem
