Miss Muriel I. Black,
C/O Albion Hotel 1 Daly Avenue Ottawa Canada
 

Dear Madam:

Your writing Is that of the mental type who Is interested is self-culture and things of refinement. Your terminals reach to the sky, which indicate a strong sense of ideality. T-bars point upward too but they are a trifle, weak, showing a lack at certainty or a certain amount of timidity. This might also be interpreted and cautiousness. A keen knowledge of values is also seen. Money is well placed when you pass it on. You do not let your tongue run at random either. You can keep a secret

Ability to write - literary ability - is marked in your letter formations. Also a love of rhythm and music Is seen. A magnetic personality Is yours and you would make good In selling and buying. Mirth stands out strongly in your make-up. You are not to be classed as a pessimist Pride and self- show Tory plainly In Your script. Sentiment and emotion is strong but It is well under control. Your sense of the practical maims you such a good reasoner that you would In turn be a good debater. You hang on to a point with great resoluteness.

Do not let, your bluntness or speech hurt you too much and learn to express more so that you can make use of your many ideas. You seem to be repressing too much. Get into some sort or work where you will meet many people - the thing you do not like to do. Learn to speak or sing in public. Don't do things for offset. (I am thinking of your vanity). And don't try to tie everybody and thing up in a knot.

You are on the right track when you study people - you are doing In Character Reading. A more universal attitude will bring out that which Is best In you. At this writing you seemingly stifle the urge to know many and you express only in a small cycle. You have the qualifications of a leader and you can and will bring them out. All kinds of good luck to you!
