We wish to transmit a suggestion made by Miss Sally Benson, to the effect that the father, Mr Smith, should be made a member of a wholesale dry goods firm or grocery firm which were then quite common in St. Louis, rather than a member of a law firm. She gives no particular reason except she believes too many pictures have been showing the father in the family as a lawyer, and we pass Miss Benson's suggestion on to you so that you may consider it. |
