COMMUNICATION.
EAGLE VALLEY. Feb. y. 1880.

of which notice of enquiry was pub
lished in your paper under date Of Feb
rusry l, "1S79," having been found. we.
the small boys Of Eagle valley. think that
the next thing in order is to offer re-
ward for the writer OF that notice; not that
be would be worth anything, but because
We have the curiosity to see the man who
is SO egotstical as to rush into print upon
so small an occasion, and does not know
what year of our Lord this is, and is 30
devoid of culture and common sense IS
to applyto as. our sisters, and our school,
house, such epithets as "brats" and
brat corral. We simply wish to look
at him. as it were, afar of, just as We
used to look at those bears, and for the
same reason-that We may be able to
recognize the species should We ever
happen to meet another one. As news.
paper correspondent, he is evidently q
profound failure: as ubscriher-well,
we believe be would pay about when be
says he would; and, lastly, the signature
to the article is decidedly thin. because
all the citizens of Eagle Valley are
fathers. ...... .s.eo4f .Ii7o,
SOME OF TIE SMALL BOYS. 4
1--WE have received several letters dur
ing the week in regard to the same sub
| ject as the above letter, in which the
writers appear to be highly indignant at
. short communication from Eagle Val
ley, which loosely spoke of the school
house as "brat corral and the scholars
as 'brats." and the teacher rs a ''brat
breaker" published in the RECORD two
weeks ago. but as the writer's neglected
to attach their signatures to the letters
we decline publishing them. And again,
| inasmuch as We have mono but the most
kindly feelings toward the settlers Of
Eagle Valley, We would not have pub
lishsd said letters had the the signatures
been attached. because we have great
respect for the settlers of the valley, who
are a kind and generous people, and
under no condition whatever would We
consent to expose to the public what a
lot of asses many of them are. The let
ter published in our issue of the 7th in
slant contained nothing out Of the way
and showed from the commencement
that it was loosely written, simply e1.
hibiting how one Of the scholars got the
advantage of the teacher, and we cannot
conceive of any cause for some Of the
settlers taking exception at it-excep,
the lack OF common sense. Judging from
the contents of some Of the letters, vi
would advise the writers thereof, ani
think it is the very best thing they car
do, to go to the g brat corral and get
little learning and good sense. ED
