Letters of Felix and Spot

Felix to Uncle Ernest. Dear Uncle Ernest.-I am Felix, Uncle Jasper’s radio pet, and I want to know if my dear Aunt Dot is ever coming back again!! Since Aunt Dot went away, no one ever sends me a message. No one ever talks of dear Uncle Jasper, or of old Spot. Oh! It is lonely. In his last letter to me Spot says he just longs for 2YA. Dear Uncle Ernest, do you not think it would be nice to send Uncle Jasper and Mr. Spot a good-night message sometimes? If you agree to send the message, next time I write to Spot, I will tell him to | listen in on Friday nights. I also want to ask you if Uncle Jasper’s name and Spot’s name have been entered in the 2YA birthday book ? Picase tell me. I want to send! them both a greeting over the air. | Felix, their big puss, must not forget ' ...L will listen in for your message } Friday night-FELIX. | P.S.: Perhaps you will be cross, because a black puss calls you! "Uncle," but I am a nice polite cat, | dear Uncle Ernest. } Felix to Spet } Dear Spot.-I am sitting by the fire with your nice letter in front of me. Se you, too, can write, little doggie?
