A second pouch was sent Saturday. Following is the text of a typical letter from Alba. It was received by Mrs. Margaret Nesheim, a teacher at Jackson school.) Dear colleague: For the time I've spent on English, I dare not risk writing in it, and, therefore, I must answer in Italian your letter which the mayor of Alba gave me about one month ago. Having been engaged in numerous duties and having been on a bit of vacation I caused my self to retard the pleasure of placing myself in communi cation with you. I hope you can understand a bit of Italian as I judged from your writing. So you are a teacher of boys and girls aged 10 and 11. That is equal to our pupils of the fourth and fifth grades. I am not familiar with Ore gon. I was in America two years ago. I visited all of the Eastern coast. City of Piedmont Alba is a city of the Pied mont, which is one of the 19 regions of Italy. Its popula tion of some 20 thousand is similar to yours. We live along the banks of the Tenaro river and among many rich vineyards. Alba is an agricul tural center which has also become industrialized. It is rich with schools and ancient traditions. It lies 50 kilome ters from Turin. I was born here. I have taught for 30 years. I am un married, and I live alone, al though I have brothers and sisters. My work includes ele mentary grades one through five; I have only girls in my classes since the boys are in the hands of men. Our school building is not modern. We depend upon the state which seems to not afford the cost of remodeling. We do not have allotments of money for school such as I admired in Connecticut and in New York The pupils come to school twice a day with an interval for lunch time at home except for the poorer ones who have lunch at school. Wednesday is a day off. We have a Christ mas vacation, and then we continue with instruction un til June 15. Start School Year Tomorrow, Oct. 1, we shall start the school year, as al ways, rve neara that your vacations are more brief. It would be very nice, if you would discuss with me the life you lead concerning your organization, methods, and re sults achieved. It is truly a shame that, we cannot speak the same language which would make it much easier to exchange opinions and sug gestions. I am very hopeful that you will be able to decipher my writing and that you find time to answer. She is very dear this far-away and distant friend who loves children and is dedicated with all her time as I am. Distance is no long er insurmountable and letters can supply a bridge to unite two colleagues who live apart as strangers, but who are close in their work and ideals. I shall wait for your news concerning your state on the Pacific coast. I understand it is agricultural, too. If I am not mistaken, Salem is the, SARAH E.
