Dear Uncle Il read the letters in
the paper, so 1 thought / would write
one also. This is my first attempt at
writing. I have five brothers and one
sister. My little brother and I go to
school. l am nine years old and an
In the fourth grade. We have three
miles to school. When the weather
isn't nice, one Of my brothers or my
sister takes us to school.-Christmas
was very poor this year for us. 1 only
got some candy and nuts.-I wish you
all a happy New Year.-ROsie Warmer,
Ellinwood, Kansas

Dear Uncle:-I received my prize
the prayerbook-and was very much
pleased with 1t and am sure l will
benefit by 1t.
Christmas Day passed by and l
think 1 was treated very well. My
parents surprised us with a crib and q

Of Jesus Christ. / put the name down
In English, as l cannot wrt1s German,
but I can read it
We have vacation this week, but l
am not idle. l do not so out to play or

with the housework. In my spare time,
i amuse myself with old used stamps
which my father brings home. / let
them soak in hot water and then take
them of Of the envelopes. When they
are dry, l send them to Techny. Ill.
With the proceeds received from these
stamps, the Society Of the Divine
Word buy uncivilized children and
train them.
/ have two sisters. Two sisters and
one brother were taken by God when
