My dear Dr. Van Waters
Again with pleasure, it was comfort-
ing to hear from you. We were delighted that
the Country Fair was a success. John gave
me a very good run-down on the project and we
are happy for those it may help. Yes, Jim still
a barber and the one that cuts the hair at the [death?]-
house section too, and Johnny keeps me posted on all
new progress relative to constructive endeavors.
He's a good man and my prays are with him.
For a point of interest, I was reading a
book entitled "Christianity and Social Adventuring"
edited by Jerome Davis and copyright, 1927 by the Century
Co., and to my delight I came across and read an article
on "Juvenile Delinquency" by Miriam Van Waters, page 151
to 161. The last sentence in this article written
by you nearly 40 years ago, makes one wonder-- "did she
know?"; and you said then-- "For the individual who
champions the cause of the child against adult greed, careless-
ness, and tradition will for many years to come be unpopu-
lar, with a supreme opportunity to exercise the virtues of courage
and self-abnegation."
Bye for Now,
