PENNY FACES
Miss Anyhow Drawn hy Cordelia Ashwell, A.8.H., Greendale
WHERE I PLAY
lii the bush I sometimes play. In a ferny stream so gay, Down the stream I sometimes wade, And take my little wooden spade.
With my spade I dig and dig, And make an island (not so big). On the island I love to play, And watch a praying mantis pray. —TOMMY JOYNT, Rotorua.
SUNSET
The sunset’s in the glowing west When the sun goes home to its evening rest. The red clouds gather about the sun, And say “Good-night to everyone.” —ELIZABETH O'RORKE, Lake Coleridge.
. ORIGINAL RIDDLES
When is water not water? When Jack Frost turns it into Ice. —KEITH FKAMPTON (aged 8), Wakanui.
What has two legs, but cannot walk? r. A dead hen. —LEONIE BARKER .(aged 6), Woodend.
