"NEW MOON."
"Did you see it, Fairiel? It was the most perfect new moon I have ever , seen, as it rose above the western - hills at 10 o'clock on Saturday night. Mother saw it through the window and told me to come and see it. I closed my eyes tight and ran outside into the fresh night air; then I opened them and had to blink before I could see it quite plainly. A perfect (and so upright); not a silver but a gold one, and oh! Such a narrow curve of golden light peeping down at me. I bowed seven times. I wonder what I looked like out there, all alone? If ■. anyone was watching they mast have chuckled: to themselves. . . ." •■ ■ ■' "SAUCY SALLY,'* Titahi Bay.
