Dear Harry:

Some time while I was away this summer you sent us some programs as suggestions for our work this year on Vermont. They were on local government, Religious Forces, Schools, and three on Care of the Handicapped. Now, like Oliver Twist, I am coming back for more. They want me to prepare a program on Eugenics, and I am wondering if you can help me, as I have practically no material – Darwin's "What is Eugenics" and a few old things. The material you sent on the Handicapped Children is being kept for a special program. The two will overlap somewhat, I suppose, but that cannot be helped.

I had thought that we might make some use of Mrs. Lamson's "Study of Agricultural Populations" which I have, but possibly not much. You see, I am rather at sea myself. Give me a program to prepare on some phase of International Relations and I can do it without so much fuss and bothering others. I wish we could have a speaker, but we have not a cent for that in this year's budget, so it is out of the question.

You asked me in the letter you wrote if I am permanently located at home now. Yes, I have not taught for four years, not from choice, but from necessity. Richford has a rather small, "one‐horse" library of about 3200 books which I am trying to make more useful.

Sincerely yours, Marion B. Rustedt
