THE LAND OF UPSIDE DOWN
In the land of upside down, people sleep all day, And as soon as the sun sets they wake up straight away. They look so funny with hats upon their feet, As they walk along tjie dusty city street. —JUDITH MARSH, L.8.H., Glenroy. ONLY ONE SWIM But the Hose Helps My swims this year are easy to count, as I have only had one, which was in Timaru during my holiday there. Owing to the restrictions I was not allowed on the beach other days, and since coming home I have not been out at all.
However, every fine day my cousin and I pretend we are going to the beach, and dress in our bathing suits and hats. We start the hose and have great ■ fun splashing each other. —FAY SINCLAIR, A.B.H. (aged 9), Dunedin, S.W.I.
SILKWORMS
About a year ago I had some silkworms given to me. I fed them on lettuce leaves for about four months. Then they spun cocoons in which they slept for a few months till they came out as moths. Soon they laid their eggs, after which they died. The eggs have now hatched out. —M. KING, 'v.O., Geraldine.
