D,
with the hope that one or two of the best of them will be
printed in your paper. Hoping that you will give the
letters, which I herewith enclose, your gracious attention,
I am

Very truly yours,

DEAR MADAM:

We are only too happy to comply with your very pleasant request. It is
our desire to be of service to our readers, and if the fact of writing
to us will help them in their studies we shall be only too delighted to
have them write to us as often as they feel inclined.

Pray tell them that we will take pleasure in answering every good letter
that we receive. EDITOR.

We take pleasure in publishing the two following letters from our little
friends in Poplar Plains.

All the letters were interesting, and showed that the young readers had
studied THE GREAT ROUND WORLD very carefully. We would have been
delighted to publish them all, but space forbade. EDITOR.

DEAR EDITOR:

Your paper is so very interesting that the teacher reads to
us some of the stories, one of which I liked very much. It
was about the forest fires, and we were very anxious to have
the next paper come. Some of the other scholars of my school
are going to write and tell you what they think is the best
story. Good-by,

Your friend,
EDNA R.C.

DEAR EDITOR:

My teacher has been reading some very interesting articles
from your paper, THE GREAT ROUND WORLD. I think the most
interesting articles were about the forest fires, the
Klondike regions, and about the large and useful bicycles,
and about the great wars that are going on now. I think you
are very kind in sending your paper to the people.

Your friend,

DEAR EDITOR:

I am very much interested about Cuba and all the wars that
are going on, also about Klondike.

I wish you would write something about the mines in Mexico,
because my father has gone down there to some mines.

Yours truly,
W.E.W.
