From Peter Pan To You

You may enter Tor our competitions whether you are a club member or not, Airini Goessi, but why not join up? 1 have plenty of copied items at present, but I am always glad to consider original contributions. I felt quite envious when I read all about your lovely holiday, Joyce Ramsden, and hope that the weather will continue fine for you. I am sure

"Propeller" would be able to find a way out or your little diinculty, J. Bolt. Address your letter to him care or this office. IN'ames of overseas correspondents aro published In these columns quite frequently, Isabel Fowler, so J hopo you will be able to find someone to suit you In the near future. Your letter was received at this olficc too late for me to send out your stationery set before Chrl3tmas, Eleanor Chapman, but I hopo It came up to your expectations. Thanks for the good wishes. Mark cards are no longer sent out on the occasion or members' birthdays, Yvonne Sinclair, but tho points are credited to them at this ofllce. Birthday points are only valuable for tho current year, and cannot be added on to the next year's points. Thank you ror letting me know your new address, Valerie Korr. Will you ask your sister to let me know when her birthday Is? So sorry that your mark cards have not reached you yet, Valerie Spanner. Will you write again and tell me how many are owing to you? Congratulations on your examination success, Phyllis Gianolli, and best wishes ror the New Year that lies ahead. I expect there is always something unexpected happening when Maggie is around, Betty Follas, and what a lot or run you must have together. It was such a pleasant surprise to hear from you again, Zoo Harris, and of course I sympathise with

you in the joss or your pet lamb. I am delighted to welcome an Australian reader, Mildred Avens, to our happy band, and will post licr an enrolment certificate on receipt or her birth date. You may send in contributions if you are a club member or not, Kathleen Olds, but I was pleased to hear that you were anxious to Join. Just let me know your date or birth and I will send you one or our fine enrolment certificates. Did you receive a mark card for your drawing? Will you choose another prize In place of the one awarded you recently, Ivy Stophonson? Packets or stamps are no longer included in our prize list. Another member who forgot to send in her birth date with her letter was li-year-old Dawn Hastings. 1 arn sure that grandma Is simply delighted to have you to look arter her while daddy is away, Shirley Alexander, and or course you will be looking Torward to the time when he Is corning back again, won't you? I have noted your change or address. 1 think that the limericks you sent in were mistaken lor copied Items, fYlilllccnt Hayncs, =o it Is a good idea to always remember to mark them very clearly. All contribution.- must bear the name and address or the sender, and I noticed you forgot this little rule when sending in your sketch. It is really quite a good attempt, and with some more practice 1 expect your work will find Its way Into these pages. Try and make your lines firm without hoing heavy, and do not let your pen "wobble" around the edges, r shall be looking forward to receiving another sketch l'roin you some time In the near ruture. It was quite all right to use pencil to 1111 in the faces in that particular competition, Ivo Joyce.
