A JUVENILE LETTER.
A letter from
one of our little ones, little Ora May Wells (Walls) of Omaha, Neb.:
Mount Pleasant, Iowa, Sept.
28 - |
To the Editor of "The Bystander":
Please allow me space in your valuable paper for a short letter to
little boys and girls. I wish to tell them about my lovely visit. I live
in Omaha. I am visiting Aunty Minnie Burnett at Mount Pleasant, Iowa.
She has lots of nice big chickens and I care for them and she has a
little dog named Cute and he is very smart, but he doesn't like
visitors. We went nutting this morning with our uncle and got all
hickory nuts and walnuts we could carry and I am going to take some home
with me. We are going out on a farm Saturday evening to visit my cousin.
They have twenty-four hogs. I have two sisters and brothers at home. I
would like to see them very much, also my papa and my little brother is
here with me. I went down to Burlington to visit my Uncle Tom Walls. I
am a little girl twelve years old and my brother is ten. I go to school
when at home. I am in fourth B, and I also take music lessons. I will
close, hoping to see an answer to my letter from some little girl
through your Bystander.
Your little friend,
Ora May Walls,
313 So. 29th Street
Omaha, Nebraska
