HILLHURST, WASHINGTON TERRITORY.

I am a little girl seven years old. I have taken YOUNG PEOPLE since

Christmas, and like it ever so much. This is the first letter I

have ever written. I have lived in New Tacoma ever since I was one

year old, until about two months ago. I am now living in the

country, fourteen miles from New Tacoma. I like it much better than

I did in town, for there are so many pretty ferns, leaves, and

mosses, and other things too. I read so many letters from little

boys and girls who write to YOUNG PEOPLE, I thought I would write

one. I hope you will print this. I want to surprise papa. He does

not know I am writing this. I will show it to him when it is

printed.
