SALT LAKE CITY, SUNDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER Why Not Write You Should Pay Sisters Proud of These Costumes To Children in Respects This Now they can dress like Swedish children, evejt to their father and mother returned from trip through Our Hospitals? Page One 17, 1929. Week to Books dolls', since Sweden, Our Knighthood members are growing into fine little correspondents. Practice makes perfect, says the old proverb; and the practice you boys and girls are getting in writing letters to each other is causing a .big Improvement in those letters. Where you used to say a few bashful words, you now gossip along cheerily and gossip is the chief ingredient of a good letter. But some of our members are getting more than their share of this good practice. Some of our bovs girls rhave so many letter to- - write .mat uiey can do little else; and then, '.when they neglect to ai.swer a correspondent, the correspondent feel chagrined and hurt It is unnecessary to name the children who are receiving so many letters. They haven't complained, of course. They accept this responsibility with the charm and graciousness that endeared them to our readers "in the first olace. But the editor is able to do a little figuring without help, and this figuring makes it plain that no little girl or boy can correspond 'with 15, 20 or 25 children regularly, and. do his school work, too. What to do about it? There are several ways to overcome the difficulty. The easiest way is this: When you decide you would like to write to some member (and we wish every member would write to two or three othars) do not choose one of the children who has been contributing freely to the section. Those children already nave their hands full. Choose your correspondent in some other way. We have already suggested that you write to someone with the same name as yourself; or to someone whose birth- -, day comes on the same day as yours,; or to someone in another state or in one of our possessions. Another charming thins to do would be to write to some of the children in our hospitals. It may be you have a classmate or fellow townsman who you know is in a hospital if so write to him. There are about 40 children In the 11 D. S. children's hospital and about 30 in the Shriners' ward for crippled children. These children are all cripples they are (Oontlnutd on Pat Five.) , r Young Stage Stars to Get Holiday Play m v lV - ' I . on a hand loom and looks something like the bright-colore- d weaving you sometimes see. They are brightly and in red green and black striped and white. The little waists are of soft, white cloth and the girdle is of silk. A detachable pocket is always worn, the strap holding it passing over the right shoulder. The bonnet ties under the chin, as Marjorie has hers, or the ribbons are left loose, as .. If you. look closely at the shoes you will see that they look like Dutch wooden shoes. They do look like wooden shoes, but the soles alone are of wood.

I Very few lltUe girls have the good fortune to possess a real, true costume from some foreign land. Fewer still are the little girls who can boast a doll with a costume just like her mother's. Then when you add a sister and a sister's doll all dressed up in the same kind of costume, you have a combination that is hard to beat. Evelyn Ryberg, age 10. and her sister, Marjorie, age 7, are the lucky little girls we have In mind. Last summer their mother and father and grandmother and grandfather toured Sweden by motor. You can imagine they were on the watch for something delightful to bring back to the : little girls who were waiting so eager- ljr to welcome them home. Finally it was decided that nothing could be better than a real Swedish costume such as Is worn by the women and children on holidays, and celebrations.

We want you to read every word In this section' and books then turn to your every-da- y and magazines with renewed interest- in their contents. All week long you Will be honoring books. You will tall? books, nuke posters about books, read new books, glorify the old ones. That is as it should be. Within the covers of books is to be found all the stored -- up knowledge of the centuries, all the . dreams, all the ideals, all the ac- complishments. It is right that you should honor and respect books. . . The newspaper is closely related to the book have you ever thought of that? Printed on paper, carrying to its readers knowledge and events and hopes and dreams, it performs some what the same mission as does a book. But there is a fundamental difference. The chief interest of a newspaper is with actual happenings as they occur. It may tell of past deeds, but it is always in connection with some, present event. So a newspaper gives you today the things about which stories will some day be written. You read a book and treasure it for years. - You read the newspaper and throw it away. The newspaner knows this and is not as durably bound nor as elegantly printed as a book. Nor does it cott so much. Yet wise people save newspapers Judiciously; they clip items and file them for future reference; they study the paper and save what may be useful later.
