viime \-uomia, 49, melkein kirje v^-
kossa. On ensimmäinen k e ^ ainakin
viiteen \aioteen, etta poika on voitta­nut,
siis poikien kunnia op pelastettu.
Hyvin tehty, Esko!
rivin tähän osastcon kun on aikaa.
Meillä alkoi joululoma joulukuun 22
p:nä. Minä sain joulupukilta paljon
I l j o j a ja makeisia.
Monet kiitokset Margaret-siskolle
siitä kaimiista jpululahjasta ja myös
kortista. Nyt on joulukin mennyt ja
uusi vuosi on tiilossa. En tiedä mitä
uusi -vuosi tuo tullessaan. Joulun ohjel­maan
kyllä kuuluu sanoa, että rauha
maassa ja ihmisille hyvä tahto mutta
myös kuluu harva päivä, ettei hoeta
sodan olevan väistämättömän, vaan
minun mielipiteeni on. että rafiha ja
sopusointu on ihmisille kallein asia
ja toivon, että kaikki ajattelevat näin.
Minä panin jänilcsiUe pauloja met­sään
ja yhtenä yönä oli kettu JUDSs^t
paulaam ja sen ti^liki on nyt minulla
kuivumansa.
Ehkä lopetan tällä kertaa ja läh­den
viemään tätä postiin kun kerran
saan hevossn reessä hyvää kyytiä.
Siis onnellista uutta vuotta kaikille!.*

Hallo siskot ja veljet Jcautta maan!
En kirjoita teille paljon mitään tällä
viikolla kun näitä kirjeitä on niin
paljon, että palstatilaa tarvitsemme
niin p^jon kuin mahdollista. Jos ette
näe kirjettänne tässä lehdessä vaikka
mainitsen siitä, niin todennäköisesti
julkaistaan vasta lauantaina, _,tllap-puutteen
takia.
Saimme kafci uutta jäsentäkin,
Norma Järven, Bissettista, Manito-basta
ja Viesti Mannisen Worthing-tonista.
Tervetuloa perheeseemme!
Saimme kaksi erokirjettä Seija Jär­veltä
jä Eila Raumalta. Tietysti olem­me
pahoillamme nähdessämme teidän
eroavan perheestämme mutta' sehän
on ymmärrettävää. Älkää tykkänään
lopettako kirjoittamista Vapauteen
sillä Club News-o£astos5a otetaan teil­tä
mielihyvin vastaan kirjeitä mikä
aika hyvänsä. Siis ei sanota hyvästi,
vain "au revoir"!
Mielestäni tuo "Study" sana, Kalevi,
tarkoittaa samaa kuin sanoisit, että
opiskelet läksyjäsi.
Mielenkiintoisia kirjeitä saapui pos-tilaatikkconi
myös Leilalta. Lahjalta,
Seijalta, HcUenilta, Shirleylta, Elai-nelta,
Sophielta, Lealta, Miriamilta,
Bernardilta, Kertulta, Evelynilta, Vio-lalta,
IlmUta, Eskolta, Viljolta, Irmal­ta,
Onervalta, saUylta, Sylvialta, Mel-vinilta,
Lailalta, LempUtä ja LUyltä.
Hyvästi taas ensi viikkoon saakka!
Siskonne Margaret.
Kalm toivoo
näkevänsä enemmän
suomalaisia kirjeitä
Terveisiä taasen Margaret-siskolle
ja kaikille parheen nuoremmille.
No niin, joulu on täa§en ollut ja
mjexmyt. Toivon, että ss toi kaikille
paljon iloa. Monet kU:okset Sinulle
Margaret-sisko niistä, kauniista lah­joista,
jotka lähetit minulle. Myös
kiitos siitä kauniista joulukortista. E i
minulla ollut .ajatuksiakaan, että olin
kirjoittanut niin monta kirjettä. Syy
on ehkä siinä, että; toisilla alkaa olla
parempi taipvunus kirjoittaa englan­ninkieltä
ja suomenkieli Jää hämä­rälle
viime tilalle. Silloin kim minä
rupesin kirjoittamaan Perheen nuo-rsmpien
osastoon ei vielä näkynyt
kuin joskus kirje englanninkielellä.
Nyt ovat suomenkieliset kirjeet jo
melkein hävinneet j,a^ englanninkieli
on päätilalla. Jos siihen suomenkie­len
kirjoittamiseen panisi vain .vähän
ahkeruutta niin §e sujuisi yhtä liyvin
kuin englaiminkielj. Minä toivon, että
joskus näkisin sen päivän, että kaik­ki
kirjeet olisivat suomenkielisiä.
Täällä oli pari kolme viikkoa kylmää
ilmaa mutta näyttää, että se alkaa nyt
lämmetä vähäksi aikaa ainakin. Lim-ta
on jo melkein joka paikassa aina­kin"
jalan verran. Täällä penVcalla
ainakin oli valkoinen joulu. Kun kä­vin
kaupungilla jouluaattona niin ei
näkynyt kuin joskus vain ihmisiä'liik-keellä
kun oli niin kylmä. ^
Koulu taasen alkaa kohta. Joskus
Sieltä saa niin paljon kotitöitä, että
minä toivon olevan kuusi kuukautta
kesälomaa pari kertaa vuodessa. Ko­keet
myös alkavat kohta ja sitten pi­tää
"studyta" ahkerasti. Voiko Mar­garet-
sisko antaa minulle vastaavan
suomalaisen sanan tuohon sanaan
(study>.
Vastaus siihen antamaani kysymyk­seen:
^Kuinka monta eri lajia eläln-
Hä voisi mies ostaa jos hänellä olisi
$5 rahaa? Hänen olisi ostettava sata
eläintä ja hevoset maksavat 50c, leh­mät
10 ja kanat Ic kappale.) Hän
ostaisi yhden hevosen, 39 lehmää ja
60 kanaa.
Ei muuta tälliä kertaa kun onnellista
uutta vuotta kaikille!

First of ali I have to thank sister

Xmas that she sent me. I have
also received many other nice pre­sents.
Its such a long time since I have
wTitten to the "Perheen nuoremmille"

We have moved to a new farm'at
Syivan Lake. It i ^ about twenty railes
from where we lived before. Now I
have two miles to walk to a town
school. At first the schoolwork was
quite hard for I was so far behind
in dlfferent subjects but now the work
is much easjer. We have a man
teacher this year. He is quite strict
at times. We have picture shows
every week in the school basement.
Sometimes the teacher. takes the^
children skating on the lake. Do we
ever have fun! We didn't' have a
Christmas concert this year because
there are too many childm. There
are over 300 school children ih ali,
with seven teachers and three schools.

real good to me. I also ix)celved u
large number of cards.
We had our concert on Dee. 21st
and it turned out swell, The weathcr
was qultc warm that nlght. I wo.s to

The last one we were at was at a big

programme. It sure got tlrcsome slt-tlng,
listenlng and watchlng for about
three hours. Then after we had lunch
another two hours had gone. The
