  20. What Fun - Young boy plays with Christmas floor layout near the Christmas Tree while his sister plays with her doll. Train appears to be of French or German manufacture. Note doll "room" sitting on the stool. This postcard is somewhat of a mystery since it has a cancelled stamp on the front, but no address, how was it delivered? Jan Athey has translated the French into English as follows: September 16, 1913 Dear Father and Mother, Madeline and little John often think of Papa and Mamma, and also aunt Martha who was kind enough to transport us to the port to catch our ship. Today little John spoke of how much he enjoyed visiting you and of the many toys and candy you gave him. Big kisses from Madeline and John to Mother, Auntie and all.
