Sure, it is an amateur production and rather unlikely to win any literary awards, Nevertheless it held the interâ€" est of every reader, child or adâ€" ult which is more than the majâ€" or dailies can boast. It ‘had less typographical or grammatieal errors than most newspapers 1 have ever read and in short despite the fact that I know it was being pubâ€" lished and was dying to go over and offer my assistance, !1 am glad I stayed away. The book or paper was a howling success and perhaps my kind offer would only have brought disâ€" aster.

And so to all those who worked on the Calico Gaz ette, my hearty congratilations for a job well done and may you have a bigger and even betâ€" ter paper and circulation next year.
