But when just exactly 17 couples re- sponded with open arms it was a glad surprise. My doubt Was not without foundation, because I have in my files sev- eral rows of names of applicants for children; but they @re @uite particular.

Perhaps later on I may know of more little orphan girls who need them. eee, Stenographer es Experience Dear Cynthia Grey: I have never to you befora, but when the about stenographers came I was tempted to write and tell | experience. @o not think tt ts so much the areas” nowadays that makes this try seem like it is fast drifting meultured heatheniam or can- i as “A Mother” states In her tter, as it is man, himself.
