LETTERS FROM OUR YOUNG FRIENDS.
The Editor has much pleasure in acknowledging letters from Robertson B.,
Grace K., and M.T.W.
We are very glad to know that the trees that were moved are alive and
doing well.
DEAR MR. EDITOR:
I read THE GREAT ROUND WORLD and I think it very nice.
I am glad to read in the number for February 25th about the
moving of Katonah, for I live in Katonah myself.
The people of Katonah do not want to have it thought that New
York city has made them move because they are careless about
their drainage. It is because the city is going to make a new
reservoir where the old village of Katonah now stands. Katonah
has three churches, a public library and reading-room, a village
improvement association, and a graded school, and _was_ proud of
itself.
We hope the new village will be even nicer than the old one. The
trees that were moved are living and doing well.
Yours truly,
ROBERTSON B. (Age 11).
KATONAH, N.Y., March 2d, 1897.

I have just finished "Little Women," and perhaps the other
little girls and boys have read it, too. I think it is splendid.
I am eleven years old, and this is my first letter, so I hope
you will publish it.
Wishing THE GREAT ROUND WORLD continued success, I am

DEAR MR. EDITOR:
My teacher subscribes for your paper for children, so that I
learn a great deal. I liked the account about the Nicaragua
Canal very much last week, as I know little about it.
I look every week with pleasure for the coming of THE GREAT
ROUND WORLD, as I am so interested in all the news you give
us. Wishing your paper great success, I am
