the people of Hydaburg were talking
about starting n cannery, And if I

I II come bock to Hydaburg and be a
plummer in the cannery or in the
new saw mill.

If I earn enough money l would !
like to go to the Suites and see all
the large factories. I could see how
different kinds of cloth were made
indhow shoes were made from lea
ther. and, how many other tilings are
made. Then I would like to come back
to Hydaburg and clerk in the store
for a while, and I could order for the
store the very best things. I would
try to be nice to all the people so
they would come in and buy a lot of
of things, and then New Years the
Melon might be larger. Then I would
put all my money into stoca. I would
line to be a housewife too,but I'd
Jather do one thing well.
Lena George.
I want to attend high school and
find the trade I line be st.
