It is of great value to the trit.r and may be of great interest and equal value to the receiver of the letters. Two girls wer were in the hospital and decided the proper thing to do would be to write a letter to their teacher. The following letters were duly written,posted,carried, and received at the school. They were read and reread by the teacher and then read again before the class. Now they are here,inclosed, to show the value of letter writing.2 A llen County Children Home F ort Wayne,Indiana January 22,l94l.Wednesday Dear Mr.S ellers: Just dropping a few lines and hoping they don't drop off.

I love to go to the parks because there is so much fu there.

He was always willing to help the other fel- low. He was alwnys willing to fight for freedom end democracy. Lincoln's early life was herd but he kept on and made the best of it. He was eager for education. He always tried to get books to read. He learned more and more as he grew older although he had little schooling. He was loved by most of the people who knew him. March 4th 1861 he became President of the United States. He was President during the Civil War.
