—4— the tremendous upheaval caused them by the departure from their lives of one on whom they leaned for help and courage to face the ironical comedy called Life. They have more courage than I, being older.

Sorry I ran along so far, as I merely intended writing your attention to the inclosed write-up I prepared on you. Does what I have said suit you? How I have said it does not suit me. Perhaps you would be kind enough to suggest improvements or cuts.

As the Dial-letter to the Times shows, the hectic, exciting, showy things in life do not interest me. I've seen my share, perhaps, and know the absurdity of it all. Old Soc. was putty migh right when he said "Know Thyself," or as I like it, "Know Mankind."

Sincerely, Alfred Adams.
