PERSONAL CHATS WITH
THE HERALD JUNIORS
Dear Aunt Laurie:


school oesn't keep me lonesome, as
three dear little children are here to
heep me company. / was so pleased
to see my dear little cousin Marguerite
Dillanon wrote for the Junior this
week. ESTHER VARLEY.
1 am SO glad you have plenty of
company, for usually little girls who
don't go to school are lonesome. Some
time when you come to the city, come
in to visit me.
Dear Aunt Laurie:
1 bought a bottle of ink to draw
picture with. 1 asked for back ink
and they gave me the ink I'm writ
ing with. l borrowed some ink from
girl who has rs cent bottle of really
black ink, and drew the picture 1 am
sending for Roll of Honor. 1 hope 1
am successful, as the drawing is all
I've had time to do for this week. 1
have been busy with my lessons and
with some sewing I am trying to fin-
ish. Hope to contribute more next
week, Your eVer-loving niece.
HELEN MACE.

ments. 1t was good Keep on, your

1 am so glad to get your drawing
and hope that this will not be the last
one. Will you not try in the other
contests as we'll
Dear Aunt Laurie:
Such bad girl as I should be
scolded for not writing and thanking
you for the honorable mention you
gave me. But so many things have
happened that / could not write.
My grandfather died and after that
had aT operation on my throat and
have been feeling miserable ever since,
so that 1 couldn't have written nice
letters to you. It is circus day down
here and the tents are just about three
blocks from us.
The honorable mention I received
would make three, if 1 could only find
the other two, but as they are year
and then some old, 1 don't know
whether you could consider them
prize winning. Again thanking you for
the honorable mention. I am your
niece, FLOSSIE ZERMAN.
P. s. I would like to have the boys
and girls of The Herald Junior ex-
change postals with me and also send
their stamp pictures to me, as I am
getting a collection and should like to
entitle my stamp picture book, MY
Herald Junior Cousins" Please tell
them for me, Aunt Laurie, will you?
If any of my nieces and nephews
who read this have pictures to send to
you I think that would be a fine
scheme. If you can find your hon
orable mentions send them, and I will
try to find them here.
Dear Aunt Laurie:
Here I am back again. You remember
I wrote once before and won q prize
hope this story will be as successful
Your loving niece,
GLADYS HAMMOND.
Yes, 1 remember, and 1 hope that
YOU won't disappear so quickly this
time because L will enjoy getting your
stories.
Dear Aunt Laurie:
/ have not written for the Herald
yet, so I think 1 will begin l will
send in one limerick and hope it will
take a prize.
Yours truly,
JOHN HAMMOND.

ters each week, and I am quite sure
