Dear Ms.Masaschi,<br />
I am writing to tell you how awesome your magazine is. For example, in this month’s article, as<br />

enjoyed reading all you have written and I hope you will keep it up. My favorite articles are about<br />

that your magazine never changes! You are awesome!<br />

Dear Ms.Masaschi,<br />
Your music and dance columns really benefitted my nights<br />
out with my love! We went to our local Jazz club and got our<br />
boogie woogie on! Your suggestion for going out was<br />
amazing. We caught the night with Shirley Temple. It was<br />
groovy! Her songs blew me away! I loved her song, “We<br />
Should be Together”, it brought back the spark from the first<br />
time, I saw my “Hot Mama”! Thank you!<br />

Our Interview with<br />
Margaret Mitchell, on her<br />
book “Gone with the<br />
Wind”.<br />
A new book that has come to bookstores everywhere is, “Gone With the<br />
Wind”.<br />
In our book interview with Margaret Mitchell, here’s what she had to say,<br />
“Mitchell what inspired you to write, ‘Gone With the Wind’?”<br />
“Well my family lived through many wars and battles, so I wanted to give a<br />
different twist on The Civil War than what most have read, and that differs<br />
from the typical accounts I have heard.”<br />
“How did you organize the content of your book? Were there any particular<br />
methods?”<br />
“Gosh, I know this may sound different, but I started with the last chapter<br />
first!”<br />
“Wow!’<br />
“I then gradually wrote all my chapters but in no particular order. Of course,<br />
I knew how I wanted my characters to be. So I guess it was no trouble at<br />
all!”<br />
“How did you keep this, what 1,000 page novel a secret? It must have been<br />
hard.”<br />
“1,037 pages was very hard to keep a secret. I hid it under a towel so no<br />
one would know. Anytime I had company I just threw my towel over my
Remington Typewriter and all my manuscripts. It was so heavy, so I had no<br />
other choice.”<br />
“So are your characters based off of anyone in particular?”<br />
“No they are my own creations, I changed the names around a lot and<br />
other little things, so it was a challenge, but I love the characters i’ve<br />
made. I feel a bond between all of them.”<br />
“Wow, so how did you come to fathom them?”<br />
“Well, I did take characteristics I valued and did not value to make up my<br />
characters. So then, I wrote them down, and made them who I<br />
thought they would be, like how they talk, their descriptions, etc.”<br />
“My last question is, what made you want to publish?”<br />
“Well, my so called ‘friend’, said I wasn’t capable, so I changed<br />
that. I filled my suitcase with ALL and I mean ALL my<br />
manuscripts, and took them to the man who offered to publish<br />
them. By then, I was offered a contract, 500 dollar advance and<br />
10% royalties. I then began to assemble all the chapters in their<br />
order. It all began from there.”<br />
“Well there you have it folks, you can buy your own copy of “Gone<br />
With the Wind” for $3.00 a book with 1,037 pages to keep you<br />
busy! Thank you Mitchell!”
Fashion, Fashion,<br />
Fashion!!!!!<br />
Our ladies are having to get more and more creative to stay out of the Bug<br />
Eyed Betty's, so today we have our<br />
neatest and nicest clothes!<br />
Dresses and Puffs.<br />
More puff, more fluff. Our best for<br />
dancing, and listening to music in our<br />
Jazz Clubs! These are made from fine<br />
fabrics and can go with almost any<br />
occasion. Our dresses come in a variety<br />
colors and patterns. Down here you will<br />
see some pretty little tomatoes. Their<br />
dresses are made of soft, and very<br />
breathable cotton fabrics, as well as<br />
some fine lace. In addition, little puffs on<br />
the shoulders.<br />
Suits.<br />
Now women are becoming more and<br />
more progressive with each waking day.<br />
So today, and only in this addition, will<br />
there be information on suits. It’s the 20th<br />
century and times are a changin. So our<br />
women are beginning to do something.<br />
These are fine polyester pants, with a nice<br />
button down cotton shirt. With pumps!
Full Skirts.<br />
Women are having to stick to the dress code, rules, and<br />
regulations given.<br />
So our women have come up with a newer style to really stick<br />
to the dress code.<br />
So here we have full skirts. With a nice touch of flair, there are<br />
many ways to wear the new sensation, that's gripping the<br />
nation.<br />
Stick straight, but when nearing the bottom, there's a flair!<br />
They can even be found in a variety of colors and patterns!<br />
Zip, Zip, Zip Up!<br />
Zippers are the new thing!<br />
Instead of hard to undo buttons, we have a single metal<br />
clasp that goes up a zigzag metal pattern that can go<br />
up or down. It has recently been found on shoes,<br />
jackets, bags, pants, and skirts!<br />
Channel’s Cotton!<br />
Channel has found a new fabric, it’s cheaper than most<br />
and found in many different clothing items. It’s easy to pick, and it’s fun and<br />
soft to wear. Check it out in your local store today!
Madeleine Vionnet.<br />
Today we talked to the elusive Madeleine Vionnet about her, Cross Cut<br />
Bias. Here’s what she had to say, “I wanted<br />
women to have more of an edge, more of a<br />
way to express themselves. So I took one of<br />
my old ball gowns, and I cut the back into<br />
the drapery. I then wore it out and I got so<br />
many compliments, that women would pay<br />
me to do theirs. So I did, now it is more<br />
elegant, and makes anyone want to get<br />
ready for a night on the town.”<br />
There you have it folks, you can get this<br />
drapery anywhere in dress shops!<br />
Hats off to, you!<br />
Your classic pillbox hats and brimmed hats have come<br />
back folks! A noble accessory to almost any outfit. We<br />
have so many different<br />
styles and patterns! They are made to keep those rays<br />
away from you, to compliment all dress wear,and<br />
more!<br />
These have been matched with shoes, bracelets and<br />
handbags!

Newest Inventions<br />
Birdseye.<br />
Clarence Birdseye has introduced a new way to dine<br />
without the whine. Simply pop it in the oven, and the<br />
frozen will be unfrozen.<br />
How does this work?<br />
It’s a late night and you don’t feel up for cooking, All<br />
you do is pull it out of the container and put it in the<br />
oven. Basically, the food is frozen with enzymes that<br />
blanch the food, freezing it, but keeping all nutrition<br />
when put in the oven!<br />
Razors.<br />
Jacob Schlick has invented razor blades, no<br />
longer are our men looking like bears, but<br />
instead groomed looking fellas, they look<br />
clean shaven and neat.<br />
How does it work?<br />
Razors have 3-4 blades (small) that are all<br />
together in this packaging for the razors to<br />
be together, and do the work in half the time.<br />
Simply press on the spot to shave, and pull up or down.<br />
Monopoly.<br />
Charles Darrow has invented Monopoly.<br />
Basically it’s a game to teach others how to<br />
save and spend.<br />
How does it work?
Monopoly is a game to invented to teach saving and spending. You roll two<br />
dice, and go around the board saving, spending, buying, and paying<br />
money. As well as trading other properties. Teaching children to become<br />
little entrepreneurs.<br />
The Ballpoint Pen.<br />
Laszlo Biro has made a new way to write<br />
without having to dip the pen in the ink.<br />
How does it work?<br />
Instead of using a fountain pen, and wasting<br />
ink by having wasted ink once you are done<br />
writing, this is a ballpoint pen. You click the<br />
top and an ink well comes out with the<br />
ballpoint tip, to make writing easy. Way<br />
cheaper than many pens.<br />
Thank you for reading this addition<br />
