Thursday
Daddy! Daddy! What do you think? The postman has just come with two letters.
1st. My story is accepted. $50. ALORS! I'm an AUTHOR.
2nd. A letter from the college secretary. I'm to have a scholarship for two years that will cover board and tuition. 
It was founded for 'marked proficiency in English with general excellency in other lines.' 
And I've won it! I applied for it before I left, but I didn't have an idea I'd get it, on account of my Freshman bad work in maths and Latin. But it seems I've made it up. 
I am awfully glad, Daddy, because now I won't be such a burden to you. 
The monthly allowance will be all I'll need, and maybe I can earn that with writing or tutoring or something. I'm CRAZY to go back and begin work.
Yours ever, Jerusha Abbott, Author of When the Sophomores Won the Game. For sale at all news stands, price ten cents.
