former resident of the town. who
visited here the past season, and a reader
OF The Phoenix from week to week said
IN public how eagerly he watched for its
coming and how interested he was in the
news that brought him in touch with
ms friends here. He said people here
little realize the interest that was felt by
friends away in all that pertained to us
and that no item, however trivial II might
seem TO u.s. was overlooked or uninterest-
ing TO them. The correspondent has re-
ceived many letters from those who have
gone from town expressing the same in
terest and from strangers to the writer
who had not lost their interest in this
town that had once been their home So
Will you not accept this testimony from
those away and not consider any item
TOO small to hand in. for II is no easv
task to prepare the weekly news unless
you do and we are sure the readers who
are many miles away would enjoy the
greater variety of news we could give
them II everyone would be helpful TO fine
correspondent.
