Honorable Franklin D. Roosevelt
President of the United States
Washington, D. C.
Dear Mr. President:
Inclose please find the
very first coins struck oil the die for the
Chicago Exposition.
You will note the surface
background of Washington represents Liberty,
Lincoln represents Unity, Theodore Roosevelt
represents Loyalty, Franklin D. Roosevelt
represents Prosperity. I thought you would
be glad to have them as the restoration of
confidence is what is neededto-day. These
coins are oronze, whereas the others I sent
you two months ago were gold dipped.
Please present a few of
the coins to Mrs. hoosevelt in recognition
of the very useful work she has been doing
in helping to restore confidence in the hearts
and minds of the people.
Very Respectfully,

The Church of St. Francis

Xavier in Missoula, Mr. D'Orazi's
home parish, was enriched by his
g
painting a mural of the "Eight

Jesuit Martyrs." This mural has
d
been highly lauded by art critics
La Morte de
and its technique likened to that
la Elena
of old masters in whom D'Orazi
seeks inspiration.

D'Orazi has taught in leading
March 7 1932 A.D.
New York schools of art and has
done work for some of the
"smartest" of national publica-
tions, but abandoned that field
because it did not satisfy his aspi-
rations. Since coming to Seattle
he has served one of the daily
papers here. He now is teaching
art in the Broadway High night
school. He wishes to devote his
free time to Christian art as a
idam
step on the highroad to his life's
ambition, the erecution of a mural
in the Vatican, where the glory
and the spirit of Michelangelo
and Bernini are enshrined.

Dear Sir:
This is a personal letter to you and is there
fore to be treated as such. I would appreciate it very much if you do not
have it published.
The writer is connected with the above con-
cern in the capicity of one of the owners. Incidentally, we are now dis-
playing the "Blue Eagle", signifing that we are co-operating with The
President in his "N. R. A.".
This company would like to present to Pres-
ident Roosevelt a pair of our trousers (with our compliments), but can
not do so unless we know his waist and inseam measurements - and the
kind of material that he would like to have.
Our summer stock (such as white flannells,
white ducks, etc.) is very low, but we have a nice Fall Line. I am sure
that Mr. Roosevelt would be able to find a style to his liking - without
any difficulty. I would be very happy to present you with a pair for your
personal use - under the conditions above stated.
I realise that both you and The President are
very, very busy men and therefore could not take time to come down and
look over our stack, although we would certainly be honored by such a vis-
it. In view of the above fact, I have this suggestion to offer: If you
would make an appointment for me (with either Mr. Roosevelt or yourself)
I would consider it a pleasure and a privelge to bring some sample mat-
erials of what we have in stock - or could be made up -to either one or
both of you, and then you could make your own selections.
Thanking you in advance for your courtsey
and trusting I will hear from you shortly,
I beg to remain, yours very truly,

Dear Sir:
Thank you very much for replying to my letter so
promptly. I am indded very sorry to have to bother you again, but I am
determined that the President and yourself shall have a pair of our tro-
users.
You made the suggestion that I communicate with a
Donald Hopkin (tailor) of New York City, who would furnish me with the
President's measurements. I have looked through the N. Y. City Directory,
but cannot seen to locate his adress. Will you be kind enough to fur-
nish me with this information?
THAT
After I receive the measurements, it will be
necessary the I either see Mr. Roosevelt (or yourseff), so I will know
what kind of material he desires. In your letter you made no mention of
the pair of trousers that I offered for your personal use.
Would you suggest that I write directly to the
President and make him this offer personally, or do it through you? I
have had the honor of meeting Our President personally (at a Grotto
meeting here in this City), but I doubt if he would remember me.
I wish to thank you again for you co-operation
and for the fine spirit you have shown , in being of help to me, and beg
to remain,
Yours very truly,

Almost any kind of material you
may choose will be quite satisfactory.
Much as I would like to do it, it is
impossible to arrange an appointment

cated his desire to devote his stay
here to rest and study.
My tailor in New York is Abe

sure will be glad to give you the

My dear Mr. Howe ,--
Unless something unforeseen happens, I will
harvest a very choice crop of Temple oranges in December. To
show my appreciation for what our President is doing for
National recovery, I would like to send him some of this special
variety of fruit at that time. To guard against anything
happening to the fruit in transit and that it may be delivered
to the President personally, will you kindly suggest to me the
proper method of handling.
Mr. John S. Taylor, President of Florida

grower.
Very respectfully,

Dec. 15, 1931
Dear Friend:
It has been stated on good authority that my Temple Oranges EXCEL
all oranges of all varieties grown in the Pinellas section this season as to
color, size, texture, juice content and eating qualities.
Having opportunity to dispose of part of this year's crop to the fancy
retail trade in Tampa and St. Petersburg I hereby offer my friends the
same grove run oranges at the same price.
$2.50 per half-box, properly packed, delivered at Express station here,
ready for shipment,-or
$3.50 per half-box, express charges prepaid to points east of the
Mississippi River.
No orders for shipment to Canada accepted.
Temple oranges are packed only in half size boxes.
This fruit will be fully tree ripened and colored by January 1st,-but
if you get your order in now I will be in position to give same preference
over local demand. If you also wish to have some Temple oranges sent by
me to your friends or relatives, include same in order and be sure to give
correct addresses SO there will be no delay in transit. With order enclose
check or Money Order, specifying whether or not to send express charges
prepaid.
Temple oranges like these were sold in some of the best northern
retail markets last season at $1.00 per dozen, but the growers did not seem
to get the benefit of those high prices. This year, rather than risk the
"auction" I have decided to sell direct, SO my friends and your friends
may know what this super-orange is like.
The definite horticultural description of a Temple Orange as given
by Hume in "CULTURE OF CITRUS FRUITS," is.-"First introduced in
1917: form oblate; size medium to large; skin smooth or pebbled, leathery,
thin, separating easily from the pulp; sections 10 to 12, with very thin
partitions; flesh orange, melting, free from rag, very juicy; acidity and
sweetness well blended; flavor spicy, rich, vinous and very characteristic."

Yours for tasty "juicy fruit,"

"N-I-R-A"
Any number of players.
Playground - gymnasium.
P7 9-D
Equipment : Two note books; two pencils; a
piece of chalk; and a United
States Flag, or a whistle.
Diagram
: On either end of the playground
there should be a three foot
goal, and a six foot safety zone,
indicated by lines drawn across
the floor space.
For the above given dimensions,
the distance between the two
safety zones should be at least
eighty feet.
Organiza-
tion
:
The players choose a President
and he will choose two senators.
The mentioned senator will re-
present the "gold" standard; the
second named senator, the "silver"
standard.
The other players will form a
circle, and the first chosen sen-
ator counts them off by two's.
The one's will be the "gold"
es
team; the two's the "silver"team.
The "gold" senator will take
his team to the goal at the right.
The "silver" senator - to the left
goal.
There each senator will place a
value on each of his players, count-
ing off by: nickle, dime, quarter;
nickle, dime, quarter, until
every player has a value.
Each senator will also value one
player at one dollar, plus his
given number. But the dollar play-
er should be unknown to the oppos-
ing senator and players.
P7
Bothe sides of players remain in
their goal until a signal is given
by the President, who will either
9-D
wave a flag or blow a whistle.
Immediately, the "gold" senator
will say, "forward" and promptly,
his players will run over to the
"silver" goal line or, as near as,
they dare to venture.
When the "silver" senator thinks
the opponents are near enough, or
off their guard, he will call in a
loud voice, "N-I-R-A".
Instantly, the "silver" players
will dash after theiropponents,
tagging them before they reach
their safety line.
The captured players will, at once,
turn around and go to the "silver"
senator, who will remain at his
safety line, and there each captive
will state his value.
When the senator has made a note
of his gains, the captives will be
free and should run to their own
goal and be ready for their opponents'
approach.
The "dollar" player, if caught,
es
will give his value as, "one dollar"
plus his first given value, when he
returns to his goal, his senator will
take the "dollar" value from him and
give it to another player, in order
to keep the "dollar" player unknown.
By this time, the "silver" team
also should be ready for its signal,
because the senators. must be very
prompt in order to give life to the
game.
The "silver" senator will call,
"forward" and his team will run over
and give a dare to its opponents, and
P 7
7
the same procedure as above will take
place, that is, the sides will alter-
nate after each challenge.
9-8
Rules : Every player must remember his given
value.
Honesty should be the ideal, if a
player fails in this he is out of the
game.
Promptness must be strictly observed
and alertness should be practiced.
No goal man may have his foot over
the goal line before the signal is
given.
When the chased players cross their
safety line they are safe.
The chasers should endeavor not to
cross their opponents' safety line.
A player may tag but one opponent in
one running.
The game may continue as long as the
time permits.
The Final:
At the close of the game each sen-
ator will add up his gains.
es
This being done, both will approach
the President and present the results
of their victories.
Thereupon, the President will rise,
give the signal for order, and state
the results of the game.
Object : The object of this game is to see
which senator can bring in the most
money towards the President's "N-I-R-A".

My dear Mr. President:
I read where you are a great lover
of fishing and spend considerable time at this
sport. I have made a new kind of "fly bug" and.
under separate cover am mailing you one.
This is known as "Dick's fly bug",
which is a floating fly rod lure and has been
a big success in waters here in Missouri, and
it is especially good for bass fishing.
I am anxious for you, at your con-
venience, to give this "bug" a trial and would
be pleased to know what results you have.
Yours very truly,

As you have no doubt noted in the press,
he left there the evening of August eleventh for
a visit to some of the Civilian Conservation Corps
camps in Virginia on Saturday, the twelfth, and
then returned to Washington to attend to urgent
public matters requiring immediate attention.
The melon which you were good enough to
send to him has no doubt been delivered to his

President's appreciation of your thoughtfulness in
thus remembering him.

Dear Mr. President:
It was a great privilege for me to ride in your party on
last Saturday, August 12, on your trip through the Shenandoah Valley,
and on your tour of the C. C. C. Camps in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
I am a banker by occupation, but in my leisure I devote some
time to the press, I was with the press car of the Harrisonburg Daily-
News Record through the courtesy of Mr. John R. Crown, Editor, and
right-hand man, of Senator Harry F. Byrd who owns an interest in that
paper, The people up here think lots of Senator Byrd. I also write
special stores for the Staunton News-Leader (Augusta County), and am
enclosing herewith a clipping taken from that paper which contains a
story of mine, written from a local standpoint, and which was added
to a. portion of an A. P. story.
I live near the first C. C. C. Camp which you inspected near
Grottoes, I was in the vicinity of the Camp yesterday, and the boys
are still talking about your visit, It was a great inspiration to them,
as well as to the rest of us Virginians, to have had the honor of
your presence. We are honored again this week by the presence of
another high government official in our locality. Secretary Hull
is now at a river camp located not more than two miles from where I
am writing where, as I understand, he is taking a. week's vacation.
Mr. Staley, of Harrisonburg, Official Photographer of the
Shenandoah National Park, took two excellent head profile pictures
of you at the Grottoes Camp from the running board of your auto-
mobile. These profiles are about ten by fourteen inches, and are
excellent. One showed you smiling at the boys, and the other gazing
at the mountains, They are excellent character studies, and if the
photographer has not supplied you with copies I shall be glad to
forward you the two with my compliments.
We extend to you a hearty invitation to visit us again in the
near future, and I hope it may again be my pleasure to see you.
Very respectfully yours,
Frank S. Driver,
Weyers Cave, Virginia.

Dear Mr. Early:
in
I am enclosing herewith photographs of the President which
were taken at Grottoes, Virginia, during his visit to the C. C. C.
Camps on August 12. In my communication to him of August 17 I stated
that these photographs had been taken, and offered to send the
President copies. In your reply to me of August 24 you requested
that I send same.
I purchased these photographs from Mr. Staley, the photo-
grapher, and I wish that you would present one of each to the
President with my compliments. In consideration thereof I would
appreciate it very much if you would kindly request the President
to autograph one of each and return same to me. I am sending four
pictures; two of each kind. I do not wish to suggest anything
irregular, or anything that would not conform to the wishes of the
President, so it will be perfectly satisfactory to return the
photographs without autographs if he does not desire to do as I
wish.
Although I am not of the same political faith as the
President, I was charmed by his personal magnetism which I felt
as I was with his party during his visit to the Shenandoah Valley
and National Park.
Mr. John R. Crown, editor of the Harrisonburg Daily News
Record, and formerly of the Baltimore Son, said that I should
remember him to you and to extend his best regards. He used to know
you when you were in the newspaper business. He knows Col. Howe and

My dear President;
Due to being misinformed the past week as to
your vacation, I have held up the package of Artichoke sticks and
noodles that I was to ship you at Washington. Today I have sent
you this pacakge and hope you will enjoy them.
I have also mailed Mr. Frederick Bates, Chief of
the Polarimetry section, Bureau of Standards a large supply of
the same products for a test and analysis. Bates has assisted
me in many ways for the past few years on the American Artichoke.
I firmly beleive that the American Artichoke flour
mixed with ordinary flour will make a better food product and if
the tests now being made by the Bureau of Standards show that it
can be consumed by the Diabetic's I am sure that it will open up
a new and large industry all over the country.
The small plant of Canepa Bros of 150 Sullivan St.
New York City is only an experimental one on my products. We are
now supplying Bloomingdale Bros and on Monday start shipping to
Abraham & Straus Co. of Brooklyn with these finished products.
The 111 schools of the City of New York are going
to enlarge the planting of artichokes this fall as the director
of gardens advised me that the growth of these plants was so
large that they were going to plant the larger amount.
Many of the leading newspapers from time to time are
writing articles about the new dreaded white man disease "Diabetis"
caused from eating to many starchy foods. The American Artichoke is
a non starch vegetable and should help our people a great deal.
On Sept. 15th or 30th I will start to market a very large crop at
Fort Bragg. N.C. and will send you some of the raw material and also
my special recipe booklet showing how this vegetable can be prepared
for the table in 120 different ways.
Again hoping the package will arrive O.K. and hope you enjoy
the sticks and noodles, the last mentioned should be cooked as you
would spaghetti.
Thanking you in advance,
Respectfully yours.

Dear President;
I am expressing to you a box of by-products which

I hope that you will enjoy these products.
I am about to contract with Bloomingdale Bros here
in New York to take over the entire production of by-products that
I am now manufacturing at Canepa Bros plant at 150 Sullivan St.
New York City. These products have been accepted by this company
and we are now awaiting boxes and other packing materials so that
deliveries can be made.
I hope to establish plants in every large city in the
United States from results that I will receive here in New York.
This will be the means of employing a great deal of help and also
the planting of larger artichoke acreage throughout the country.
The Board of Education, City of New York who received
seed from me last year are now planning to increase the planting withh
the next 30 days as the crops have surprised the ones who have charge
of the many nature gardens here.
I have also mailed to many of the Department of Agriculture

Hoping that the artichoke products prove satisfactory
and also hope that you will enjoy same, I remain.
