Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: For many
years l have been a reader of The Journal.
and have been a silent nephew and cousin
from the beginning of the letter box, and
l think the letters growing better with
every copy OF The Journal, and cousins,
think we can make it more interesting by
leaving off some Of self and writing
something that will inspire each other, to
higher and better ideals. Cousins, do you
all know Il am sure Aunt Julia is aware of
this fact), that the future welfare Of our
rountry depends upon rs? The boys and
girls Of today are the men and women of
tomorrow. So the future church and Sun
day school, "a well country, rests in
the hands and hearts Of the boys and girls.
And 10 keep our great tion on the stand
ard Of civilization does not mean that we
must be president any officer of law;
Just by being good citizen help
enforce the good laws of our country by
keeping and respecting them. So should
take willard S. SCOTS advise and attend
church and Sunday school. Judges have said
that 90 per cent Of the boys convicted of
crime are boys who did not attend church
and Sunday school. We may not have the
have the talent. we should use 1t 10
the hest of our knowledge. I am leaving
my age for YOU all TO guess. which is he
tween 20 and IS. NV birthday il the 25th
closing 25c for Inez. Cousins, we must never
forget her. for we can easily inclose
small amount with each letter and never
miss it, And our Lord said 1t ia more
blessed TO give than to receive. VIII he
glad TO get letters from any Of the cousins.
Won't promise to answer all letters re-
ceived, but will try. Your nephew and
cousin,
THOMAS E. GREEN.

always tinkering with in my leisure mo-
ments. And I would like 10 say one
word in defense Of the girls who hare
