“Dear Sir:—

“I rec’d the packet of information on Country Life and will return it after our next meeting the 27th. Can you send me two or three dialogues suitable for a Literary Society in a rural district. We have 6 or 8 young ladies that might take part but very few young men. And will you suggest a few subjects for debate of interest and benefit to a country community.

“Yours truly,

“J. B. P.”

“Gentlemen:—

“I should be very glad if you could send me a short play of say 30 or 45 minutes length as you mentioned in Nov. We are using the schoolhouse as a meeting place and so have not much room on the stage. Could use one requiring from 4 to 8 characters.

“Yours truly,

“H. W. B.”
