t hose Requesting' Letters
We tire c misiderably embarrassed
by requests which we would bo ^hid
to grant could wo soo our way clear
to do so. In nearly every mail there
are from one to half a dozen letters
asking for letters from the children
in the Orphanage.
It would ho a \ leasure to comply
with all 'hese, for we realize that in
many eases it would stimulate in
terest in our work here, but were we
tu rtu so it would tnke much time from
th« children's necessary tusks both at
home and in school, as well as much
of our time. It would also require
no small supply of stationary, and
quite a considerable expense for pout
age
Wo liopa our friends will take all
this into consideration, and will not
feel hurt if letters are not received
from the children. If there were
only a few such repuests it might
easily be arranged but. when the de
mand is so largo it is impracticable.
However we will gladly lend tbs
“News Letter” which will help, we
hope to suatnin iutercit in the child
ren and the work here.
