your self proud Ma'm. Not only have you not deviated from your assigned objective, you have developed and enriched them to the N'th degree. At last I belong to a family, yes, truly a family of shared interest, drives and an almost personal contact with others of our cult.

Please continue, I will do my utmost to support your sincere efforts with articles and maybe a photo or two. At present, I am involved in various activities and cannot do so now, but I promis to work on it some time soon.

Sincerely,

Dear Virginia:

While I enjoy your magazine, it is something of a mystery to me, in spite of the objectives printed inside the front cover why you bother.

I should think you could spend your energies else- where with great reward to yourself and society.

Sure, it is nice for our little group to have the magazine, correspondence, etc., but it is true finally that we are neurotic people who, like all neurotics, can live with our compulsions, as many do- or get treatment. There is no more reason for us to be under- stood as a group than for people who compulsiviously wash themselves or save string, need to be understood.

In an activity like this, you will get only monetary thanks from people who are glad you share their prob- lem. From a long time point of view, you are "flailing the wind", and will wind up with the dirty end of the stick in your hand. For as long as you continue, I send and good luck. Get smart.

you my best wishes,

Cordially, Jack
