"Moonstone," Roseneath. —Of course, you may join us, and we'll watch for your letters and paintings with "Moonglow's." "Water Nymph," Lower Hutt. —And spring notepaper, too. I know a tree that is misted with green already. Did you have great fun at the school social. The Elf and I enjoyed your French sentences. They were good practice for us. 'Peglegs," Lower Hutt.—And we're very glad you've joined, Margaret. Isn't it lovely to know that the holidays are so near. My love to Bindle, the Budgie. Is he a chatterbox? "Princess Blossom," Miramar.—Pamela must have had an exciting birthday. Thank you for both poems. I'm sure you are going to be a good versemaker. "Blinking Billy," Lower Hutt. —Good news that you are coming to the Ring! Your idea

of the "Personal Column" Is good, but many letters would not be suitable to print and four or five lines would be space enough for a brief message only. Would you like to send a sample paragraph? "Junia F.," Lower Hutt.—l'm glad you enjoy the Ring, Junia. Sorry you can't be "Snow White," aa we have one in the Ring already. Will you choose again "Bobby G.," Lower Hutt.—l have written your name in the big Roll book, Bobby, so you are a member of our circle now. Such a tidy painting you've made. "Marlrl Elf," Roseneath.—What a handsome jewelled gown the princess In your drawing is wearing. I'm gla.d you know "Tinker Bell" and "Silver Ring." Happiness wishes from the Ring. "Merrymaker," Upper" Hutt.—l do like it . . . .very much. Good verse-making 1 You'll be proud of that first-year: service star. What grand times you have with the Guides. Have you been to camp yet? ■ "Chinkachook," City.—No wonder you remember your last holiday so well. The farm - seems to have been a storybook place, with everything you could wish for. Soon it'll . be holiday-time again and perhaps you are planning another visit. "Maytlme Fay," Brooklyn.—Are the tints of pink roses your favourites, elf, for you have used them more than any other in your picture? Watch that runaway paint brush when it tries to slip over the edges. "Sweet Agnes," Hataitai.—What an original idea to set your Snow Queen in the centre of a little Swiss village. Perhaps that is where she lives ... in one of those scarletor green-roofed chalets. "Dorothy 5.," Palmerston North. —Neat work, Dorothy. The white fur jacket looks as soft and fluffy as a real one, and the casket of flowers is carefully tinted. I hope we'll hear from you again soon.
