DEAR SIR: Now that the news from San
Francisco has settled down into the routine
and " e are beginning to hear from our readers
about our handling of the earthquake and
fire, want to thank YOU for the magnificent.
and yet perfectly characteristic. report which
We got from IN Sun, The very magnitude
of III. disaster made il impossible to describe
the scene a. u whole 80 as to convey an idea
OF the actual conditions. II was only by little
stories, as told by different individuals. that
a proper picture could be conveyed TO the
outside. II was in these bits of detail that
your service excelled. and which, taken col
lectively. presented a true picture OF condi-
lions in San Francisco, But az ! telegraphed
you at the time. your service was nothing
more than | knew II would be. Thanking
you again. | am, yours very truly,

DEAR SIR: Now that the rush Is over in re-
spect to the story OF the San Francisco disas-
ter, il Ia In order to 20 on record regarding
the admirable service provided by The Sun
News Bureau for its customers and TO eS-
press our ion therefor. For prompt
ness. accuracy. careful attention to details.
the wide scope OF the service, the discrlml-
mating care shown In selecting what was OF
most vital interest to the re eral public.
the readable character of the daily stories
the human Incidents so graphically depicted -
all served TO make up a service OF the highest
quality. We have read many yards OF the
yarious newspaper reports of the San Francisco
tragedy and. by comparing them with THE
SIN service, reached the conclusion that
IL was not excelled by any. And | am certain
that the readers Of The Morning News we're
old all that was worth telling. and told in the
most approved way by capable writer's. Yours.

DEAR SIR: Before we finally close the San
Francisco affair we would like TO express
more formally than we were able TO do in
telegraphic form our appreciation not only
of the material received I through your SER
vice but also of the method in which YOU for
warded il 10 us. II was a great satisfaction
10 know that we could rely absolutely on your
eating all the news for us and forwarding IL
TO our Office at the earliest possible moment.
Please believe that We are not only appre-
~ciatiye. but grateful. Very sincerely.
