Vio/fl Tells of
Hunting Trips
Hello sister Margaret and everybody
else.
Weil, I gue£s its about time for me
10 write a few Iines again.
I've been so busy doing my school-work
tliat I haven't had time to
write. Our teacher, Mr. Ccdy, said
that we are too far behlnd Jn our
subjects SO that means we have to
work harder. •We are also taking
book-keeping but I can't understand
heads or talls of It. The National
Pilm Board is still showing us moving
pictures i n the basement, though this
year we have to write about them.
At the beginnlng cf the season there
was duck hunting, then moose, and
uow everybody seems to be hunting
coyotes. At sgme places even up to
three and f our hundred people join
together and go hunting coyotes. Not
very long ago there was a huge K o -
diak bear killed at Rocky Mountain
House. It weighed sixteen hundred
pounds and it's measurement from
ear to ear was nineteen inches. These
are said to be the largest bears in
the World.
We're getting our house fixed, slow
but sure. Mother painted the kitchen
be we still have to paint the living
room and bedrooms.
We never went picking berries this
.••ummer because people said there
wasn't any around.
Our friends gave me another dog
that I named Skippy. My other dog's
name is Scottie. I get great pleasure
playing with them although Scottie
gets most of it by putting the little
one down and trampling on top of
h:m.
I also went out Hallowe'en tricking
at Sylvan Lake with my girlfriend.
I received about a half a pillow-case
full of treats, mostly apples and can-dies.
They lasted for over two •weeks.
Weil, Christmas is here again soon
and the Aveather has been lovely, not
even a speck of snow.
This will be a l i for now.
Cheerio!

Esko Writes of
Royal Winter Fair
Hello Margaret and a l i you readers
and writers of this fine page.
I hope everybody is feeling alright
these fine cQld days i n November.
I haven"t received any names for the
new store. I guess everybody is just
as lazj- as I am o r is that nobody can
use $2.50.
I left for the F a i r on Monday mor-ning
on.the five to seven train. I got
on at a place about 4 miles fröm here
called Fenwick. It.took about 2'^
honrs to get to Toronto. The Fair
was really quite interesting. They had
vegetables, hcrses, cows, machinery,
new style cars. The most interesting
thing there was the Uttle dwarf cows
which weren't much higher than 3
feet full-grown. They also had a dwarf
donkey there. We went through the
buildings and i n one part of the
building there was a speedboat called
miss Ainerica IV. I t is the world's
fastest boat, and travelled about 142.3
miles an hour. Was i t ever a long
l>oat! In another part of the building
there was a theatre. There were
so many things there that it wouId
take a book to write about them ali.
After neon I went uptown^and boughr
fiome fried fjsh for my mother. Did
the fish ever smell on the train as
I was going home. Everybody on
the train wondered what I had i n the
box. I told them whät it was and
they practically fainted. I don't blame
them either because the fish did really
smell! My brother came and got me
frcm the station.
I guess 1*11 start a little business in
making belts and selling them. I
bslieve itsquite a profitable little business.
Ho\v many gh-ls and boys are there
in your class. Linda Elgbacka?
That peh I got from you last Christmas
f eli on the floor Margaret, and
one half of the nib broke. Do you
kno\v where I could get i t fixed?
Are the roäds e ^ r sllppery down
here. Hov? are they ufi there, Margaret?
On Priday I went to a show i n St.
Kitts and saw "Kazan". It was a
very good show. Thafs ali for now.
Cheerio!

Ellen Wants Roller
Skates for Xmas
Öear sister Margaret. -
How is everybody feeling?- My
chieken-pox is over again but my
brolhsr has i t now. I hope I never get
it again. . •
Christmas is coming soon and boy,
will I ever be glad to play i n the
snow.
My dad made my dog a little dog
house.
A l l i want for Christmas is roller
skates and some other little toys.
I like school but I don't like my
teacher. I like the children i n my
room. We are going to have a concert
over here and I think other children
will be having Christmas concerts too.
I hope so.
I have a cat and her name is Tiger.
I like my music teacher very much.
His name is M r . Rushton.
It was raining today and äll the
roads were full of water.
The last letter I wrote was the long-est
I have ever written to the Vapaus.
I wiU try to make this longer.
I hope Santa Clause will be good to
everybody and now I will teli you my
age. I am nine years cld and my
birthday is on AprU l l t h . There is
another girl i n my room whose birth..
day is on same day as mine. She is
nine years Old, too.
I liye'near my school but some
children have to come from far out
of town. Lots of kids have been away
from school and there were only ten
children in grade one. They are bet-ter
now though.
I like writing, drawing, reading
books and palnting.
I have to get five teeth pulled out.
I was suppKJsed to get them out last
year already.
Weil, I have to go to school this
morning again. I will close for now.
Good-bye everybody!

I guess its about my t um to v r i te
to this page. Tve been quits lazy at
vPTitlng letters this month.
The weather hasn't been very nice
here. just snowing or raining a l i the
time.
We have started practlsing for our
Chrisönas concert. I received my
cards today that Pm going to sell.
J have twenty-six aut(«raphs in
the a u t o g r ^ h bo(& you sent me last
year for Xmas. There seems to be
more letters i n the Vapaiis now thai
Xmas is nearing.
I wrote to Gladys Wertanen on Sun-day.
I have knit a palr of mitts for my
dad. one palr for myself and a pair for
my brother Eddie and now am knlt-ting
myself ankle-socks.
I bet Rose has been quite busy

Skiing Alreaiy
Dear big sister Margaret.
Weil, its time to write again. I don't
think I ' l l write Finnish this time
because I don't think I ' l l have very
much to write about. I f I can think of
lots to say I might write i n Finnish,
too.
I went skiing today. I was skiing
last Week already but tcday^is really
a good day because the snow doesn't
.stick to the skls. I went to see the
place where my brother is skidding
logs. We have to cut down some of
cur bush because the Hydro wants it
cut down. The Hydro lias made a
tower on our hill. They are putting
up the towers ali around here. I hope
we get electricity soon.
Rlght now I've got the radio on and
am going to listen to the Proctor and
Gamble Hour.
My mother and two of my bro-thers
went to Copper Cliff on Satur-day
morning. They saw the play that
was on i n Sudbury at the Finnish
Hall. It was "Eilen Syntynyt" or
'•Born Yesterday" i n English. They
also went visiting around to Levack,
Lockerby and to other places also, I
guess.
Last Week I saw the show "Pather
Was a Fullback" starring Fred Mac-
Murray, Maureen CHara, Natalie
Wood and Betty Ann Ljmn. i t was a
good show.
I think I ' l l close this letter now
because I can't think of anything
to say. Good-bye!

Home So^n
Dear big sister Margaret, and a l l the
readers and writers c f this page.
How is ths weatber i n Sudbuiy,
Margaret? The w«ither here is ckm-dy
and kind of cold. Right now the
sun is out but I <ion't think itOl stay
out for long. We have a bit of snow
yet.
My stories will be on soon. I listen
to a l i the stories that come c n before
1230.
I had my x-ray Monday and it was
gcod so m be going home this week
or at the beginnlng of next week.
Boy, am I ever glad!
I was kind of slck on Saturday
and Sunday. I had tonsilitis. Boy!
was my throat sore. They put cur-tains
between Shirley and me so that
she would not get a sore throat, too.
I'm all over it now^ and my throat is
fine. I also had my privileges taken
away for three days. Did it ever seem
funny washing i n bed because I 'm so
used to getting up now. /
I curled both Shirleys and my hair
last nlght. Shirley's stayed in. I
thought the bobby pins would slip
out during the night because her hair
is SQ thin but they didn't.
We had our beds changed this morning.
Gee, is it ever nice to get into
a clean bed after having the same
sheets on for a week.
I've been down here for three weeks
and two days. It doesn't seem that
long. I guess I ' l l have to Isave this for
awhilc becauss the nurse is i n to do
the dusting.
Here I am back again trying to dig
up something to say. I have not been
weighed lately SQ I don"t know if I've
gained or not.
I guess I ' l l close for now becaase
my stories are on. Cheerio!

Hellassa paha yskä
Hello everybody.
Minä olen Ollut täällä kotona taas
sairaana. Olen ollut koulusta pois
seitsemän päivää j a sattuu olen vielä
huomennakin kotona. Toissa viikolla
elin pois 3 päivää j a nyt t ä l l ä viikolla
olen ollut pois 4 päivää. Minä kävin
lääkärissä ja sain hyviä lääkkeitä
mutta ei neicään mitään auttaneet
sen t ä h d e n kun menin kouluim ennen,
kuin olin hyväksi parantunut.
Sinä iltana kun menimme sinne lääkäriin
minä meinasin tulla sinua katsomaan
ja tuoda edellisen kirjeeni s i nulle
mutta kun se oli liika myöhäistä
niin me panimme sen postilaatikkoon.
Sieltä se sitten oli mennjrt V a pauteen.
Minä , olen käynyt sinua
tapaamassa ainakin kolme kertaa t ä nä
kesänä mutta emme ole vielä nähneet
toisiamme.
Jos t ä h ä n nyt tulee talvi on se sitten
kauhea paikka kun suurin osa
Wanupin kaivoista ovat kuivia.
Kyllä t ä ä l l ä on t ä n ä ä n kylmä vaikka
en ole \'ielä ulkona käynytkään
tänään. Tiedän sen kun vähänkin
ovea raottaa.
M i n im veljeni ei ole vieläkään ollut
kotona käymässä vaikka h ä n 2 viikkoa
sitten lupasi tulla. Nyt h ä n sanoi,
e t t ä tänä lauantaina h ä n tulee varmasti.
Siinä on kaikki höpötykset mitä t ä i .
nä. kertaa miUstan. Paljon terveisiä
kaikille!

kun talvi tulee, saa hevoskyytiä, mutta
kyllä se sitten on kylmää myös.

Vio/fl Tells of
Hunting Trips
Hello sister Margaret and everybody
else.
Weil, I gue£s its about time for me
10 write a few Iines again.
I've been so busy doing my school-work
tliat I haven't had time to
write. Our teacher, Mr. Ccdy, said
that we are too far behlnd Jn our
subjects SO that means we have to
work harder. •We are also taking
book-keeping but I can't understand
heads or talls of It. The National
Pilm Board is still showing us moving
pictures i n the basement, though this
year we have to write about them.
At the beginnlng cf the season there
was duck hunting, then moose, and
uow everybody seems to be hunting
coyotes. At sgme places even up to
three and f our hundred people join
together and go hunting coyotes. Not
very long ago there was a huge K o -
diak bear killed at Rocky Mountain
House. It weighed sixteen hundred
pounds and it's measurement from
ear to ear was nineteen inches. These
are said to be the largest bears in
the World.
We're getting our house fixed, slow
but sure. Mother painted the kitchen
be we still have to paint the living
room and bedrooms.
We never went picking berries this
.••ummer because people said there
wasn't any around.
Our friends gave me another dog
that I named Skippy. My other dog's
name is Scottie. I get great pleasure
playing with them although Scottie
gets most of it by putting the little
one down and trampling on top of
h:m.
I also went out Hallowe'en tricking
at Sylvan Lake with my girlfriend.
I received about a half a pillow-case
full of treats, mostly apples and can-dies.
They lasted for over two •weeks.
Weil, Christmas is here again soon
and the Aveather has been lovely, not
even a speck of snow.
This will be a l i for now.
Cheerio!

RB. 1, Red Deer, Alta.
Esko Writes of
Royal Winter Fair
Hello Margaret and a l i you readers
and writers of this fine page.
I hope everybody is feeling alright
these fine cQld days i n November.
I haven"t received any names for the
new store. I guess everybody is just
as lazj- as I am o r is that nobody can
use $2.50.
I left for the F a i r on Monday mor-ning
on.the five to seven train. I got
on at a place about 4 miles fröm here
called Fenwick. It.took about 2'^
honrs to get to Toronto. The Fair
was really quite interesting. They had
vegetables, hcrses, cows, machinery,
new style cars. The most interesting
thing there was the Uttle dwarf cows
which weren't much higher than 3
feet full-grown. They also had a dwarf
donkey there. We went through the
buildings and i n one part of the
building there was a speedboat called
miss Ainerica IV. I t is the world's
fastest boat, and travelled about 142.3
miles an hour. Was i t ever a long
l>oat! In another part of the building
there was a theatre. There were
so many things there that it wouId
take a book to write about them ali.
After neon I went uptown^and boughr
fiome fried fjsh for my mother. Did
the fish ever smell on the train as
I was going home. Everybody on
the train wondered what I had i n the
box. I told them whät it was and
they practically fainted. I don't blame
them either because the fish did really
smell! My brother came and got me
frcm the station.
I guess 1*11 start a little business in
making belts and selling them. I
bslieve itsquite a profitable little business.
Ho\v many gh-ls and boys are there
in your class. Linda Elgbacka?
That peh I got from you last Christmas
f eli on the floor Margaret, and
one half of the nib broke. Do you
kno\v where I could get i t fixed?
Are the roäds e ^ r sllppery down
here. Hov? are they ufi there, Margaret?
On Priday I went to a show i n St.
Kitts and saw "Kazan". It was a
very good show. Thafs ali for now.
Cheerio!

Ellen Wants Roller
Skates for Xmas
Öear sister Margaret. -
How is everybody feeling?- My
chieken-pox is over again but my
brolhsr has i t now. I hope I never get
it again. . •
Christmas is coming soon and boy,
will I ever be glad to play i n the
snow.
My dad made my dog a little dog
house.
A l l i want for Christmas is roller
skates and some other little toys.
I like school but I don't like my
teacher. I like the children i n my
room. We are going to have a concert
over here and I think other children
will be having Christmas concerts too.
I hope so.
I have a cat and her name is Tiger.
I like my music teacher very much.
His name is M r . Rushton.
It was raining today and äll the
roads were full of water.
The last letter I wrote was the long-est
I have ever written to the Vapaus.
I wiU try to make this longer.
I hope Santa Clause will be good to
everybody and now I will teli you my
age. I am nine years cld and my
birthday is on AprU l l t h . There is
another girl i n my room whose birth..
day is on same day as mine. She is
nine years Old, too.
I liye'near my school but some
children have to come from far out
of town. Lots of kids have been away
from school and there were only ten
children in grade one. They are bet-ter
now though.
I like writing, drawing, reading
books and palnting.
I have to get five teeth pulled out.
I was suppKJsed to get them out last
year already.
Weil, I have to go to school this
morning again. I will close for now.
Good-bye everybody!

Elvi^s Autögraph
Book Almost Full
Dear sister Margaret.
I guess its about my t um to v r i te
to this page. Tve been quits lazy at
vPTitlng letters this month.
The weather hasn't been very nice
here. just snowing or raining a l i the
time.
We have started practlsing for our
Chrisönas concert. I received my
cards today that Pm going to sell.
J have twenty-six aut(«raphs in
the a u t o g r ^ h bo(& you sent me last
year for Xmas. There seems to be
more letters i n the Vapaiis now thai
Xmas is nearing.
I wrote to Gladys Wertanen on Sun-day.
I have knit a palr of mitts for my
dad. one palr for myself and a pair for
my brother Eddie and now am knlt-ting
myself ankle-socks.
I bet Rose has been quite busy
these last Tew months.
Some people were over here yester_
day to Idll our heifeer and now its
hanging i n the tree.
I guess m close this time as I have
to go to bed. .1'11 try to write in
Finnish next time. Cheerio!

Rose has been
Skiing Alreaiy
Dear big sister Margaret.
Weil, its time to write again. I don't
think I ' l l write Finnish this time
because I don't think I ' l l have very
much to write about. I f I can think of
lots to say I might write i n Finnish,
too.
I went skiing today. I was skiing
last Week already but tcday^is really
a good day because the snow doesn't
.stick to the skls. I went to see the
place where my brother is skidding
logs. We have to cut down some of
cur bush because the Hydro wants it
cut down. The Hydro lias made a
tower on our hill. They are putting
up the towers ali around here. I hope
we get electricity soon.
Rlght now I've got the radio on and
am going to listen to the Proctor and
Gamble Hour.
My mother and two of my bro-thers
went to Copper Cliff on Satur-day
morning. They saw the play that
was on i n Sudbury at the Finnish
Hall. It was "Eilen Syntynyt" or
'•Born Yesterday" i n English. They
also went visiting around to Levack,
Lockerby and to other places also, I
guess.
Last Week I saw the show "Pather
Was a Fullback" starring Fred Mac-
Murray, Maureen CHara, Natalie
Wood and Betty Ann Ljmn. i t was a
good show.
I think I ' l l close this letter now
because I can't think of anything
to say. Good-bye!
