I am a little boy ten years old, and have taken HARPER'S YOUNG
PEOPLE ever since it was first published, and enjoy it very much.
Papa buys it of the news-dealer. I think the pictures very nice
indeed. How very pretty is the one of M. De Lesseps and children!
How cunning they look perched up in their village cart, and what
jolly times they must have together! I attend the Kindergarten
School. I study geography, arithmetic, read in the Third Reader,
and also study German. My teacher is, besides being thorough and
efficient, a real Christian lady, and we all love her very much.
Should you chance to be in Bridgeport some Friday morning, come in
and see us. There are a great many who take HARPER'S YOUNG PEOPLE
among our scholars, and they would be delighted to see the editor.
Papa and mamma take me occasionally to your beautiful city, and
next time I go papa says he will show me where YOUNG PEOPLE is
published; but I will not write more, for fear my letter may be too
long.
