informed on how these words play a positive role in our lives.
A man was telling his Dear Mr. Doyle;
Your March copy of UPBEAT TIMES arrived yesterday and I could not wait to get it out of the envelope and ready to read. This I did quickly and enjoyed every page. But my favorites were the quotes, your front cover drawing and the explanation of the draw- ing, and The Smart Dog story on pg 19. Your talent in the drawings and photos that you have shown in this and prior issues have been wonderful. I thoroughly enjoy every issue and have for several years when my son Eric Fraser sent me occasional copies. This paper is the sunshine of life and your quotes are the rungs of the latter on which to build our dreams and opportunities. As we grow older we need the encouragement to continue each day no matter what the trials and tribulations may be. Some days are harder to put one foot in front of the other, but we must no matter what. Keep up the wonderful out- look that you have to present a newspaper this is not the dark side of news but the UPBEAT side of life. We all need this side to continue through our day to day existence, so many thanks for the boost.
Sincerely, Ellen M. Fraser- Fenton, Michigan
