open for us. For a woman it is a natural occurrence, but for me, it meant a lot. Again, all went smooth, and I was in my glory. Starting now to think that in the morning I would be heading home, and in the worst way, not wanting to. This was all too nice. Being a girl, feeling like a girl, coming and going as I pleased.

It was completely different than when I do my Impersonation act. As Charmaine, I'm accepted dressed at home and in the nightclubs, be- cause everyone knows that I am a man, and doing an act. But as myself, Stephanie, here I am, accepted as a woman, because people think I am a woman. That is one big ego booster.

When GG and I returned once again to the lodge, we changed into our new nighties, even though it was late afternoon, put on our robes, switched on television and just spent the rest of the day talking girl talk, playing scrabble, and enjoying each other's company. It was still cold, but we didn't seem to mind it so much now. We were planning when we could do it again. Right away wouldn't be too soon for me.

We got up early in the morning and I put on the same white outfit I wore driving down. I went to Mr. Brown's office, paid my bill, left money with him to take care of the boat rental, and thanked him for his hospitality. He said that he enjoyed having us and we were two very well behaved young ladies, and that he hoped we would return again soon. I couldn't help but wonder if he really knew, or it was my imagination. Whichever, he surely helped a girl have a fantastic two days in spite of the cold front.

3RD CLASS MAIL

In TVia 76 I explained about the size of our postal bill and asked if any of you would give your O.K. to mailing 3rd class mail which is vastly cheaper. So far only two readers have been kind enough to give their O.K. All other publications in the field mail by 3rd Class. Chevalier is the only one that has clung to 1st Class Mail. And we will stick with it for those who feel they must have it that way. But there are lots of you receiving other things 3rd Class and many who have PO boxes under other names who could, without complications, O.K. our use of 3rd Class for you. We really would appreciate your considering this problem and helping in this way if you can. I don't like to raise prices on things, I agree they are high enough already, but when paper and printing and postage go up either I have to absorb it all or you help by cutting down on the postage. 40 cents is a lot to pay to ship one issue of TVia. It would be just half or 20 cents by 3rd Class. Think about it.
