Every now and then the postman leaves at the office of THE EVENING SUN
a message that brims over with pleasure for the recipient. Among such
communications we gratefully acknowledge the following, addressed to us
by a young friend in the South:
“DURHAM N. C. March 29.
”DEAR EDITOR—I like the Once upon a time stories very much pleas make
them a little longer Father reads them to me after Supper. do you tell
them to your little boy or girl with love Lucy Glasson Mary likes them
to”
Time was, LUCY, when we told some of these stories to our little boy
and girl at bedtime, and now, years afterwards, we are glad to think
that we can tell them over to thousands of other people’s little boys
and girls. If only they will think of us occasionally as LUCY GLASSON
does, “with love,” how rich will be our reward. _N.Y. Evening Sun._
