You have forgotten? In that case, here they are, re- printed for you to read anew, And, Cousins 0’ mine, please do not wait until the last minute to ask for a new pin, There ts always a great rush then; mail goes astray or is lost, and it may be that for one of these rea- sons, if you delay, your application will not be attended to. But I must give you the rules; they are very important, I kno Follow them closely and carefull, Here they are: TO OBTAIN A NEW PIN OR CERTIFICATE.
