MINNIE EVANS

I sent to them. She sent those to Life Magazine and they have one of these secretaries, what's her name, sent them back. They say they were sorry they couldn't use them then. So, I didn't get worried but I said the time hasn't come for them to use them. When you do get it out everybody is going to want some of them.
