Student seeks aid with report about Illinois

My name is Gary. I am 10 years old. I am in fifth-grade, and we are doing state reports. I have been to your state three or four times. I hope to get a good grade. 

I would like postcards and pamphlets. Also, a state flag and carvings. State rocks would be a big help, too. My school’s address is: Conway School, 19710 State Route 534, Mount Vernon, WA 98274.

I am very excited about doing the state reports. I would be very happy if you sent me items from your state. Please send me as much as you can. This will help me get extra credit.

Good or bad? Depends on who you ask

Sometimes readers ask for more good news in the paper. They say we in the media only cover the bad. But one person's positive is another's negative.

My kind of game

I would have gladly paid to take in the game I covered Saturday morning in Morrison.
