Ihave often heard it discussed and always with the same favorable comment. It js a medium that reaches those who otherwise would be neglected and lonely, Your manner of word ing requests is kindness Itself to those desiring assistance and cheer I have received genuine pleasure in sending small gifts as messages of cheer to those you would men tion as most needing ft. I received such nice notes of appreciation from Uttle Gertrude Boggs and Mrs. Susie J. Smith. How splendid of The Star, too, to donate the space each week, The only suggestion I might make is to continue keeping the boys and girls interested in doing kindness for the shut-ins for you are molding something very fine in their characters that will be a blessing to them when they grow up. Sincerely, MRS. EARL Louis’ TORKELSON. DOG WANTS HOME Mrs. Patterson, Garfield 5261, is desirous of finding a good home for her year-old fox terrier Boston bulldog.
