Lear MdTy AHA.
 Last week I read the letter which told about Noah Count who was lonesome and looking for steady ] jane so's the moonlight evenings wouldn't seem wasted and if I ex- plain about my accomplishments, etc.. maybe you could tell him about me and then neither would be lonesome. I don't like to boast how good looking am but with my newly bobbed hair and a per- manent wave that has already lasted three weeks people tell me look like the queen of some other country. I've got good manners and don't listen in on our party telephone line except to pick up the receiver to learn whether somebody is talking about me.
 Anyways ! don't believe all hear and only half of what l see. | My Dad Wisecracks I oughta be a | baseball upmire. Am handy with needle and thread and can make lovely soft pillow coverings When | they's material left over can make a swell necktie to go around a fella's neck without choking him. Being kinda wide they're just the | thing for eating soup or water melons. But what some guys need is mufflers. I usually have good luck at cooking excepting with the last fiapjacks on account of forget 1 ting to grease the pan and they stuck so I had to remove them with tire iron. They wasn't wasted be- cause my kid brother used them as l targets for his air-rifle practise. I always put the knives and forks back where they belong and never leave unwashed dishes in the kitchen sink over night, but usually places them on the floor in a corner where l they's more room. Am musically in- clined, knows the difference between a saxophone and an elephants trum- pet, and can get most any station on the radio except WTIC on nights when they's no programs. Since I had my tonsils removed I've been unable to warble any high notes without having them sound like the tail end of d long drawn vail but l if they grows back again I'll be atle to hold my own without giving the police any complaints to in- vestigate.
 At 8 dance I'm no wallflower as I took private dancing lessons, which helped to reduce my figure, not to mention the bankroll. l enjoy most outdoor sports at amusement parks except riding on merry -go-rounds. l These vehicles seem to have no more ambition than a ham sandwich has vanilla flavoring but travels in a circle getting you no where eA- cept so dizzy you don't know wheth- CT you're still in town or have left by the last boat. Neither does the Ferris wheel hand me a thrill. If it should run outa gas or something while you're at the top they's notf- ing to do but wish you was some where's else as they don't supply you with parachutes and you can't very well get out and walk, even if you did have roller skates.
 I also drives a 1924 Ford coupe that's kinda rundown and acts like it's got cobwebs in its system and don't move any faster than a mud turtle bothered with Jeumatism and lumbaSgo. Lots of times when was in a hurry to get somewhere I'd leave the flivver by the roadside and take & street car. The only time it moves faster than F miles per hours is when , ton truck is chas- ing 1t. A mechanic is gonna over haul it and after put in a couple of new sparkpluEs or something he said it'll become 50 powerful that it'll take at least four husky guys to hold it back until I climbs in and when they lets go it'll be every autoist for himself, and may Heaven help the pedestrians, and how.
 As ever.
