Our teacher takes the great Round world and reads to us whenever the time will permit.  The reading makes an interesting part of the exercises of the day.  We are all anxious to hear about the war between Cuba and Spain, and we hope Cuba will soon be free.  Can you tell us about how many people pass over Brooklyn Bridge in a day?  I think it is wonderful how buttons and such articles are made out of milk.  Do they have schools in Freeville?  I think we should all be grateful for the interesting news that is printed for us in your paper each week.

                                     Yours truly,
                                             Nellie R.

DEAR NELLIE: 

We are glad that you like the great Round world.  Why don’t you try and get it for yourself by becoming one of our agents?  You can get your own paper free of charge for two subscriptions, and it would be very nice to own it yourself, and be able to read it whenever you wanted to.

In Freeville the children are taught to work.

You ask about the number of persons who cross the Brooklyn Bridge daily.  Mr. Martin, the Chief Engineer and Superintendent, has been so kind as to tell us all about it for you.  We publish his note.

Editor.

One hundred and twenty-five thousand people per day ride across the bridge in the cars.  Twelve thousand walk over on the promenade.  Five thousand vehicles cross the bridge on the roadways.—­C.C.  Martin, Chief Engineer and Superintendent.

    Have you thought of the Relief Maps for examination work? 
    Are you following from day to day the war in the East?

    Klemm’s Relief Practice Maps

    especially adapted to examination work, as they are perfectly free
    from all political details.  Any examination work may be done on them.

For following the Eastern Question use Klemm’s Roman Empire, and record each day’s events.  Small flags attached to pins, and moved on a map as the armies move, keep the details before you in a most helpful way, especially when you use the Relief Maps.
