My teacher takes THE GREAT ROUND WORLD, and reads it to us every
week. We like it very much, and it is always welcomed in our school
room. As you have answered some questions, would you please tell
me, in the next number, which State of the United States has the
most miles of railroad, which the least, and how many miles of
railroad has each? Wishing success to your little paper, I remain,
Respectfully yours,
E.R.
BALTIMORE, MD., May 1897.
DEAR FRIEND:
In answer to the questions in your letter, we would refer you to Poor's
"Manual of Railroads."
EDITOR.
DEAR EDITOR:
I see in THE GREAT ROUND WORLD the notice of a handless brush.
Where can it be bought. Who are the manufacturers? Please inform
me, and oblige a reader of THE GREAT ROUND WORLD. Respectfully
yours,
G.W. CURRIN.
BLOOMSBURG, PA., June 3d, 1897.
DEAR FRIEND:
We are very sorry to be unable to give you the information you desire.
Our Invention and Discovery Department is not in any sense an
advertisement column.
We have facilities for learning of all the latest inventions, and we
give our readers those that we think would be of interest to them. We
can, if you wish, give you the name and address of the inventor of the
brush, but we cannot tell you if it is already on the market. EDITOR.
DEAR EDITOR:
I am much pleased with THE GREAT ROUND WORLD.
Do you think that the Cubans will take Havana soon? I hope they
will because I think it will, end the war.
Do you think that Greece will fight Turkey any more?
I am going to have a new bicycle; it is to be a Remington. Do you
think it is a good make? Yours truly,
GEORGE B.
TUXEDO PARK, May 31st, 1897.
DEAR GEORGE:
We think the Remington a first-class bicycle, and hope you will have a
great deal of enjoyment with yours. EDITOR.
DEAR EDITOR:
This is the first letter I have ever written.
I take THE GREAT ROUND WORLD, and it is very nice.
Yours truly,
GROTON, MASS. JOSEPH W.P.
DEAR EDITOR:
I am very much interested in your paper, and especially the Cuban
war accounts, and I hope that they will get free soon. My teacher
gets the paper every week, and soon I hope to get it myself.
I am trying to get a hundred subscriptions for your paper.
Wishing you long success, I remain
Your faithful reader,
MERRITT T.W.
NEW YORK, May 24th, 1897.
