De-. Father

Dear Father:
You are t dearest on earth
and I shall never stop loving you.
The present was just what I had
been hoping and wishing for. I
love your letters, but it seemed to
have been ten years since I saw
you and | was SO anxious to see
you. I enjoyed being with you.
l was glad to be a real little girl,
to have you to love me, pet me
and make a baby of me, as I
know my own dear mother would
have done is she had ben there
and | had been with her.
Now, Father, while | know you
do everything for me | have an
other favor to ask. Christmas
is coming and | want to help make
som eothers happy, too. | wish
you would let me give some pres
ents to those poor girls | have
been writing about. And | do want
to give some to the little colored
girls. One o fthem said they did
not expect much because they are
so poor and Santa Claus does not
always go to poor people. What
ever you send to me I will have
Aunt Cornelia help me buy the
presents. Lots of love and a thou
sand kisses.
Alta Vesta.
I. S | wish | could be with you
on Christmas, but | shall remem-
Der my Thanksgiving visit and be
happy.-A V.

ply send self addressed, stamped,

Make Miller: I am heart sick
and L don't know what to do. I
found a letter in my husbands
pocket. He had written the letter
to another woman and in it he
called her pet names and told her
how much he loved her. When |
took my husband to task he
raised cain and said he placed the
letter there to trap me because he
suspected I was tampering with
his mail.
Now, l don't know if this is true
or just an abb to get out of a
tight place, for he did catch me
this time. l love this husband and
don't want to separate, but | hate
it abonut this other woman. What

Sarah Jane: You are paying
for your folly of spying on your
husband. You had no right to go
through his pockets and the thing
serves you right. You cannot
tell whether he told the truth or
not, so ask him to forgive you,
forget it and keep your hands out
of his poekets-Maxie Miller.
