I am five years old, and can not write myself, but my sister is writing for me, and I tell her what to say. I have some pet Plymouth Rock chickens, and they are all named. My brother Wilton has four beautiful pet pigeons, and one of them is making a nest. I have four cats, and a setter pup named Dash. Uncle Jimmie lives with us, and takes Young People for my brothers, Wilton and Eddie, and myself, and we all like it very much. Wilton reads everything in it.
I have some beautiful morning-glories that have been blooming ever since the first of June, and I will send some seed to any little boy or girl who would like some, and will send me their address.

I am very much obliged for my nice little paper, Young People. My uncle gave it to me for a Christmas present, and it amuses mamma and me very much.
My only pet is a nice canary. When I let him out of the cage he flies and picks the buds off from mamma's plants.
We can see the snow on the mountains all the time here where I live. I am twelve years old.
