Dear Children:
Our two presidents born In Octo-
| Der are:
October 4, 1922, rutherford Bich-
ard Hayes, nineteenth president OF
| tho limited States, was born in Dele
ware, Ohio.
October 5, 1880, was the birthday
For Chester Allan Arthur, twenty-hrst
United States president.
Suppose YOU read about these pres
idents as | give you their names.
You can, of course, always find them
in YOUR history of the United States,

BIRTHDAYS in our Letter Box, then
looking them up in your history, will
impress them more upon your MIND.

| Check them ere they soil the lin.
Love is much too pure and holy
| Friendship is too sacredt far.
! For a moments reckless folly.
Thus to deSolate and mar
! Angry words sre lightly spoken.
