Dear President Eisenhower,
I wish to thank you for the nice letter in
regard to birth date being the same as
yours. That my is one thing 2 have always luagged
about. & am in the 9 in Marade Jr. igh School at
Robinson Springs. my subjects this year are
English, spelling literature, math, algebra
and incience and civice. my best grades are
made in civics and my worst are maile in
English 2 would like to ask you a quest
ion. Why do we school hids have to learn
about advertes, adjectives, nouns, pronouns,
verbs, etc? W by can't we just learn about
punctuation and captilization? To prove
my point; have you ever had anyone come
up to you and ask you what an adverb or
and adjective was and how to useit? Our
English teacher Mrs. Sara ziegler mays
it helps you to read but to don't think
so
I would appreciate it if you would
answer my question. Thanks again for
the nice letter.
Yours truly,
Dear mr. John D. Burke, Jr.
(or ear)
