I Doris Hult-chinson, Editor MEMORIES OF CHILDHOOD Hidden -away in a dark closet there is a picture of my-self which I still -preserve as one of the links which binds me to my childhood. 'Once in a while I take it out, and gazing aut it, dream of the days when I was merely a small child. Memories keep crowding into my mind-memories which grow clefarem' as the years fly -by.
