that hardy and uncomplaining as she has been she could spend several satisfactory years with us here before closing her eyes on the rings of time if those nerves whose business it is to see after feet and legs would only get back on their job. Hell, bless her dear heart! I am glad that I met with her on lifes' highway even though it was near the end of the road for both of us.

How I'd love to act on your suggestion and run in and visit you in your mountain loveliness.

They are only a joke." I was much reminded of "The Emperors New Clothes" by Hans Andersen - you've read it-have you not? If not, there is something rich in store for you. A few years ago when bathing beach seasons were all the rage this smut appeared in Digest: A certain young man committed suicide and left behind a note of explanation, "Life is no longer worth living - I have seen everything there is." He was bathing censor at fashionable beach during Summer that is what I thought when those girls walked out just as good or better than naked and climbed in with a car load of boys to go to Lake not even sandals on their pretty baby feet right in the face of all Israel and The Sun" - to be biblical about it. Goodnight - tell
