Tomato, Tuiliapo: Sorry there was no letter Helen. The story was well-written and humorously told. Pinkiepurr, Tinul: Yes, four pointe It is, Helen! A pressing competition—what do other Leaguers think? Bernard Woodcock, Wellington: Welcome to you! What about a pen-name?

Mushroom Elf, Matarou: A good attempt at verse and sketching, Carol. Try to rhyme your verses a little better, and perhaps they will reach the page’s standard. Kelly Duggan, Wellington: Sorry Vern," but your efforts are hardly suitable for the page. You see, the articles are merely paraphrases or precis of other writers’ work, and what we want is original observations of your own.

ItoHc Dreams, Eketaliumi: Your composite picture was very well done, and 1 specially liked tbe way the snowman was worked In. No letter?

Annabella, Alas ter ton: Not as neatly done as it might Ibe, Jean, but you had
