We, the patients of P.H.S Indian Hos
pital Albuquerque, New Mexico are ex
tending our sincere gratitude in sending
us "The Navajo T i me s". We do not
just read it and forget about it. We are
happy to learn about our people, and
our reservation. We are learning many
things from these people about their
abilities and it gives us great pleasure
and we feel very much at home reading
about our people and our reservation.
We share the Times with other pa
tients here at the hospital a n d with
those who can not write or read we who
can read take time out to tell the non-
English speaking Navajo he news on the
reservation. Patients appreciate very
much learning that those back h o m e
are thinking of them.
Many of us are sick with tuberculo
sis and are confined !o the hospital. It
is not easy to leave home and depart
from our loved one. Some of us had to
leave school to come to the hospital for
treatment. We make tremendous sacri
fices in order to get well. We appreciate
what medical staff are doing for us.
Please continue to send The Navajo
Times, everyone at the hospital enjoys
the Times.
liespert fully yours.

Your Navajo T imes is read with
great interest by our many Navajo stu
dents. This paper stimulates interest,
promotes a desire for all students to
work hard and obtain an education to
help the Navajo people.
Your committee is to be highly com
mended for many news articles, pro
gress about the Navajo Area. and. in
particular, it keeps the students in
formed about tribal matters, while they
are away from home. We would appre
ciate receiving a listing of the various
committee and members, as several of
our Navajo students would know these
committee members.
Again, we w ant to thank you for
sending us enough issues so our stu
dents could read and review the Navajo
Times.
Sincerely yours,
