So many new subscribers to the
Shenandoah HERALD, who are men,
bers of the Hottel-Fravel-Keller Clan,
are being received and still larger
number of these staunch old friends of
the old home county paper are send
ing in their renewals that our SUBJ
scription lists are fast assuming the
role of directory of this large and
prominent family, whose names are
found in issues of the paper from the
time of its establishment in 1917 down
thru the century to the present issue.
Many have gone to the middle West,
the far West and along the Pacific
Coast. All seem prosperous and in
many cases are very wealthy and promi-
nent, yet the love of the old Shenan-
doah Valley and their kinsmen is .un-
changed. Frequently we have letters
asking for the address of some member
of the family who has been lost sight
of in the passing years. This is also
the case with many subscribers be-
longing to other families and frequent
ly friends of other years write to the
old home paper to know the address
of some former friend. In only two
cases within the past year have we
been unable to locate the party called
for, and in many cases we find the
name and address on our mailing list

"They will never let me add any
