FROM MOORE COUNTY.
BROOKSVILLE, N. C.
Mr. Editor:—I will now attempt to write my first letter to the young folks column. I am a farmer's daughter 15 years of age. I am the youngest of three sisters and I am the oldest of three brothers. I live in Brooksville, and I am now going to Brooksville school. My teacher's name is Miss Lizzie Brocks. I will answer W. T. Debnam's question. Sunday got its name from the sun. I will ask a question. Where did Monday get its name? Wishing THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER much success.
I am yours truly,
