Heather Writes For "Heather" From Attlee And Gets Lucky Sprig Via Air Transport
Washington—(U.P.)—Clement Attlee is a man of his word.
Not long ago, eight-year-old Heather Ann Nordheimer of East Orange, N.J., heard on the radio that the British Prime minister wore a sprig of heather for luck when he came to Washington to talk things over with President Truman.
The girl wrote to the prime minister and explained her name was Heather. And would the British leader please send her a sprig of the lucky flower?
. She will get her wish.
All this happened in a rather odd way.
Heather said in her letter to Attlee, addressed in care of the British embassy here, that she was a Brownie, or Junior Girl scout.
She asked Attlee please to get her home heather when he got home "for world peace" and wished him the best of luck. Also, she enclosed a dollar bill. Please, she asked, would he use the money to buy a Christmas present for some Little Girl guide in Britain? (Girl Guides are similar to our Brownies.)
Before he left, Clement Attiele answered Heather personally. He said the heather had been presented to him by an "unknown friend" before he left Britain, but that he would do the best he could when he got back. He guaranteed a Girl Guide would get a nice present "from Heather Ann Nordheimer."
The "unknown friend" who had sent Attlee the heather read of Heather Ann's request to the prime minister.
He identified himself as Mr. Jack Scott of London.
Attlee then got a sprig of heather
