LETTERS FROM READERS
me are always happy to hear from our readers
as to their views of the paper. The follow
ing was sent to us by Mrs. Julia Dean
Sellers, a former resident. It reads as
follows:
Dear Editor,
Enclosed is my renewal subscription
for your CO HER IHVER CURRENT with a check
for Air Mail Service. How much I enjoy this
little newspaper. My former husband, Earl D. j
Dean and myself were at the Copper Center
School until his death in 1941. Needless to |
say that we enjoyed every day of our work.
The Ewan children were then our pupils and
when one reads of their activities, one
realizes the passing of time. Harry Johns
was also one who visited us frequently.
It is my wish to re-visit Copper Center in
the not too distant future and renew the
acquaintance of a few of those known to us.
In the meantime, your publication will be
much enjoyed.
Cordially,
Mrs. Julia Dean Sellers
' This is an excellent example of how the
newspaper keeps everyone in touch with
friends and relatives. If you know of some
