! Dear Fairiel, —I am a friend of ; Dorothy Maslem, who writes to The ! Fairy Bing. Dorothy has wanted me 1 to join Tile Ring before, hut now that i l have solved a puzzle X am able to \ write. j I am the friend who Dorothy stayed | with out at Stokes Valley. We go out ; every week-end, and when it is fine ] we have a swim in the swimming pool ! and other fun. ; We hfive a rockery on an island in : the stream. We have a lovely big treei fern and a hiith beech tree in our j bush when the fantails come very i close to us and tweet, tweet. In the j winter they come into the porch to \ be fed with crumbs, but. the cheeky sparrows soon see what is going on and outdo the dear wee fantails for the best part of a meal. We all enjoy reading your page, and I will try soon again to give my little bit to Open Eyes. - Your new fairy— JOYCE. Jovce Weeber, Wellington. • • • • Dear Fairiel, —I arrived home yesterday week from Dunedin and I had a lovely time there. We camped in a place called ’ Tahuna Park, which was four sections away from the Exhibition. I went all over the Exhibition and I went on everything in the amusement park,

First Creek, but of course that makes it all the more fun. Your loving elf— K DOROTHY. Dorothy Clarke, Maatertou. (An elf is supposed to be rathei more of a boy-tliing than a girl-thing, Dorothy not that it matters two dandelion seeds in Fairyland! How jolly the logs eound! —Fairiel.) * * • * Dear Fairiel, —Just .a few lines to tell you that I liked being in Rote run, hut I would rather be home. We reached home Saturday afternoon.
