Nearly every Government House occupant has brought children who have taken advantage of the ideal playgrounds in the rolling land around the big house.

Interesting Letter Writing mi s It lilvi all u lilsgrutlgnc ‘Ir: liarrzsp£scasu

A group of bobby-suckers ask ma if I will give tbam pointers about letter writing in general, and amecially are they desirous of lcnowiil: how to write letters to boys. Glad to. girls. and it pleases me to know that you youngsters are taking up letter writing in a. serious way, for it is one of the most useful accomplish ‘ that any aromen can have.

The ability to write a graceful little-bread-ahd- butter letter gets many a girl a return invitation- for .a. week-end, while the failure to acknowledge a gift, or to express appreciation of some courtesy shuts the door she would like to have opened to her in many another girl's face. Friends and op- portunities are made and lost by a postage stamp.

Of course, in its higher brackets. letter writ- ing ls a gift. like a talent for singing or playing "bridge or cooHng, but you don't have to be a professional to turn out a letter that will be a ~~ credit to you and a delight to its recipient," and hem are a few basic rules for you to follow:

LEGIBLE HAND

In the first place, learn how to write a legible hand. This is a busy world and fow people have the time or the energy to try to decipher a letter that looks like a mess of llzyptian hieroglyrphics. If your hand writing is poor. use a typewriter.

'Ilhe time has long since gone by when it was not considered good form to write a personal letter on the typewriter. Now we bless the hand that does it, and that enables us to read what John or Mary had to say right off the page. Never. never NEVER write a. letter with a lead pencil unless you are stranded on a desert isle where there is neither ink nor pens.

If you want to write an interesting letter. stick to the personal. Tell what your family and friends are doing. Spice it up with harmless 8081i). All of us read the newspapers and we know wihat is happening in the big world, and what we yearn to hear is what is taking place at home. And. for’ heaven's sake. answer questions, which felw people do, Nothing is so aggravating as a letter that ignores every query and tells us nothing that we waint to know.

Write cheerful letters. A letter that is simply sodden with tears and tells every piece of bad news that the writer could pcissibly collect will send the receivers spirits down to zero. All of us have plenty of troubles of our own without having the woes of those we cannot help added to them.

when you are wary or hurt. it is a relief to write a letter to the m" WM h“ "Yfmded you and bowl him or her out good and proper.

the head of the river. Without a doubt, this week brought the most pleasant March day, I ever saw, to Alderlea. Fleecy clouds like on a lazy Summer day, floated on the blue of the sky and a small boy visitor and I swa ideas and yarns on a warm og in a sunny part of the yard and threw apple cores to Jeanle's hens. And ail the while, in wife of James‘ dread suspicions to the contrary, a young- er lad, with light curly hair slept blissfully on the kitchen couch. Their mother had given them to rne for the day, when she went to the city, as she said "to buy so many things, I need." James was much too busy that day to be troubled with lesser things, but was able to join in the fun when they played in the old kitchen and the younger lad shouted a clear: “Whoai" to a prancing steed. "Re- markable" ll heard James tell Jeanie "Why he's very little past the year." I O

James forgot for the moment his "affairs of state” and the odd piglet, that must have "come to die" and even then was cold and stiff outside the plggery door. Neither encouraging nor funny to any farmer. Especially, when he adjusts his glasses, and the first. thing that meets his eye in the paper is something which ‘nukes him look up to tell Jock: "The price of little pigs-or hogs is on the upward trend." Och, but its a weary world then! But always hope springs up to point out another brighter. day

This week, as well as part of last, Mr. D. and the entire family at Alderlea worked shoulder to shoulder in an effort to make some early dreams of mine in regard to interior decorating come true. My share was to bake and concoct ‘my very best culinary offerings in an endeavor to have this carpen- ter ply hammer and draw sow to the best of his ability, James comes indoors at intervals. as well as thoyoung folks from thehousa acromftho lane, to inspect the area done. b came too and Jamie. with a Weather eye i0 the delight- ful blocks discarded.
