Gandhiji in writing a praface ti the book written in Gujarati
(Written by Mahadev Desai) Be Khndai Khidmatgar says that the Khan brothers
are truly servants of God. Gandhiji has greater apperciation for younger
brother Abdul Gaffar Khan (who wrote Letters to Gandhiji form prison) who is
almost a fakir Every Gujarati house should possess a copy the book. The book
is not merely a Gujarati translation of the English book. Two servants of
God. Mahadev has succeeded in his attempt to make it an independent work.

I brought with me all the articles presented to me by you. But I
found after coming here that some of the articles are made in foreign
countries. You know that I insist on using articles made in our own country,
particularly in rural area. Even for a shave, I use an ordinary razor. At
least in future, you should bear in mind in buying things for my use or even
for "Majoor Mahajan" that you should buy things made in India. In
Bardoli, for me, al small and simple hut bas been made. All things that go to
make it would be used again when it is dismantled after I leave this place.

Read out the enclosed letter to your father. At the time of
Purushottam's marriage, all possible care would be taken. But even then, just
as we create situations, situations also exercise control over us. Duality of
fate and human efforts is always there: I have asked for dates from
Bhanushankar. Perhaps the amount may have been deposited in Goseva Sangh
Accounts. I am here till 23rd inst.

Schools should be started from the point of the children of the

all his time for the school. School can be started even with one teacher and
one student. Parents who are financially well- off should pay full fees.

Your letter. I shall make use of your data. Good that you are
wedded to Khadi. Khadi is the nucleus of national (basic) education. not

Kanti and Navin are not there: So Mahadev has to take work from Kanu alone.
Manju is progressing well. How is Kusum ? - did she get anything from the
