TO THE EDITOR OF THE GREAT ROUND WORLD:
I am an enthusiastic reader of your most interesting little

chart.
I am up in the mountains for the winter, and there is fine
skating and tobogganing here, and I have also a fine big snow
house. We belong to the "Pontiac Club," and can therefore skate
whenever we want. Wishing your paper much success. I remain
Your fond reader, SEYMOUR U.P.
