Our Mailbag

Ivy Jenkins says: “I think knitting would be the best idea of the three, don’t you?”—As you’ll see. Ivy, knitting and collecting old clothes certainly seems the most useful way that Young Northlanders can help other people this time. Thank you for ;a long and chatty letter. Rest assured that you have not been forgotten. Jessie Laurenson.—Open fires are appreciated this weather, Jessie. As I’m penning this reply there’s a fire crackling merrily in the office grate. We’ve sent that extra certificate, so you’re another point nearer a book.

Muriel Dunn. —Such a friendly letter, Muriel, it was a real pleasure, to receive it. I’ve passed on your message to the Princess. May Muldrock.—l certainly hope that you’ll still be able to get the “Advocate,” May—especially on Tuesdays and Saturdays. Elma Webb.—l thought duplicates had already been sent for your flood stories, Elma, but just in case. I’ve sent them out again. I’ve given the Princess your message and she is ing forward to your letter. Peggy Farata.—Such a long letter, Peggy. I was pleased to hear from you. You’ll have to work hard and save thirty points before you turn 18, won’t you? Aline Bissei.—Getting the two prizes while on holiday would be a .surprise, Aline. Of course you can begin saving for another book. Olga Kokich.—Thanks for your letter, the recipe and the squares. They are rather small but we can use them. Over a hundred members you think, "Olga. Why we had over three hundred at the end of the first month and we’ve crowds more now. Good luck to the Sports Club.—R. Jean Adkins.—l was beginning to wonder where you had disappeared, Jean. Keep the squares in mind. They need number 9 needles. Number 10 are rather fine. If you read my letter on Tuesday’s page you will understand why.—R.
