KIND WORDS FROM SUBSCRIBERS
Taken at Random From the Scores Of
Friendly Messages, Both Verbal
and Written, Received by
The Review.

Just at this time the flood of let
tiers, showing such genuine affection
for The Review, have been particular
ly appreciated by the editor. There
can be no question but that the rela-
lions which have existed between The
Review and it's readers have been
more than business relations, and the
ties which bind are hard to break.
We publish herewith a few letters
taken almost at random from the
many on our desk:

Now. as in the past, the vast num-

babblers who know not what they
affirm. They can give no reason for
the faith that is within them because
they neither know the faith of the IA
theirs nor contribute an iota to the
faith of the future.-Baltimore Ameri-

1t is indeed with great pleasure,
that am enclosing subscription price
for dear old Denison Review up to
Jan. LIST, 1911. If there is time in
the whole week when all work is drop
ped and real pleasure is experienced,
it is when The Review makes it's ap-
pearance. 1t has been more than
four years since | left dear old Deni-
son and came to Dakota to live.
Since that time The Review has been
our constant companion and ever
thrice welcome guest. We have been
saddened many times to read of the
death of friend, pioneer or acquaint-
ance, and when they have seemed to
come fast and thick, we have often
wondered who would be the next one.
Again, we have rejoiced over pros
perity, and success and pleasure,
that have gladdened the hearts and
homes of others. We have loved ones
of our own that our hearts sometimes
bleed to see. to love and to be loved,
and while weary miles divide us, we
are glad to know through the col
/ umns of The Review, that God cares
for them, as we'll as us, and trust
that some day we will be able to
walk up and down the pleasant
streets of that dear old town."
We are at present holding down =
quarter section, of homestead land in
as pretty valley as South Dakota
contains, between the East and West
Pine Hills. While we are at present
about 70 miles from a railroad, there
is one headed this way and we hope
before another year closes, we will pe
much nearer one. We have stage
route right by our door, and are with.
in three and half miles from Hard
ing, also 1S miles from Buffalo, our
county seat.
We are connected on north and
south by telephone, have good
schools, church three miles away, and
while our hearts many times go back
to good old Iowa, we are sure this is
the place for poor man to get q
start, and someday, by Grace Divine
will land in Denison, able to look ev
eryone square in the face and claim
a hard battle Won We love the PEG
pie of Denison and surrounding coun
try and shall be glad to know of any
good that may come to them.
Accept our best wishes for bright
happy and prosperous New Year.

BY now the unconcern which Mr..

caution. Moreover. his pride had been
