ATLANTA, GEORGIA.

I live in the suburbs of Atlanta. We have had lots of birds' nests
in our yard this summer--mocking-birds, bluebirds, and sparrows.
On moonlight nights the mocking-bird sings far into the night.

When Pluto, our black cat, goes under the trees where the little
birds are, the old bird flies down, pecks him on the back, and
looks very angry. Pluto looks as if he would like to eat her at
one bite.

We have another cat, called Charity, because she came to us, and a
little black kitten named Potts.

I wish YOUNG PEOPLE was just full of "The Moral Pirates," but
mamma says that wouldn't be fair to the girls.

I have a little brother named Bayard, two years old. Thursday
night, when my uncle brings YOUNG PEOPLE, he says, "Luncle Leddie,
give me my YOUNG PEOPLE; show me my bootiful pictures and
Wiggles." Then he sits still while mamma reads him a story. He can
tell stories, too. He says: "A humble-bee stung a bluebird out in
the flont yard. Can't find me. 'Long come a big turkey and eat me
up. That's a big stoly for YOUNG PEOPLE."

I live on a farm near the Great South Bay, and have great fun
bathing and catching crabs. Will crabs shed their shells in a car
if they are fed?

I am collecting birds' eggs and postage stamps, and would like to
exchange with any readers of YOUNG PEOPLE.

I am eleven years old. I have taken HARPER'S YOUNG PEOPLE from the
first number, and like it very much. I have a brother who is just
thirteen years old, and he likes it as much as I do, and there is
a great rush to see who gets it first when it comes from the
office. Papa says we need two copies. Papa has taken HARPER'S
WEEKLY more than twelve years, and intends to take it always.

We have a pet white calf with black nose and eyes. We call it
Creamy. I feed it milk twice a day, and it eats apples from my
hand.

I made a white cake for my brother on his birthday from the recipe
sent by Alt
