This is the first report on embroidery, and, according to promise, the old embroidery pattern has been sent to the writer.


Sullivan, Indiana.

I am almost eight years old. I do not go to school. I have two little sisters. My papa prints a newspaper. I take Young People, and I think it is the best paper in the world, except papa's. I get papa to read it to me, and then I send it to a little boy who has no money to buy it.

I am only six years old, but I can read all the stories in Young People alone. I have some very playful kittens, and one night they tipped over the big rocking-chair. I had six white geese, but one died.
