Dear Fairiel, Our windmill was blown inside out the other night. • I have been making a rod and reel for fishing in the holidays. If we go to the coast. ' I have joined a Glee Club and am learning singing. It is quite nice. I will be glad when the swimming season comes ,on. —Your loving Elf, Terrence. Terrence Williams, Pongaroa. Dear Fairiel, Yesterday when mother was baking she let me make a batch of gems, and I did them all by myself, but mother put in the butter, sugar and flour, and they were very nice. On Saturday I pulled another tooth out and ‘ put it under a glass, but when I looked this morning it was not there and mother said she had not seen it, hut when I went for the cream this morning I found threepence. Perhaps the fairies might have put it there for me to find, Sometimes in summer mother lets us take our lunch outside and pretend we are having a picnic, and on Friday it was so nice that mother cut a big plate of sandwiches and let us have our lunch outside for a picnic. We had a rug spread on the grass, and had our little baby sister out with hs nearly all day.—Love from your Fairy, Betty. Betty Simmiss, Petone. * # * # Dear Fairiel, — When I got your unexpected parcel the other day I danced with glee. I was ever so excited! Juliet wanted to see and she said it was a book. Thank you ever so inucli. When I told her what it was she wanted to write on it. I’ll keep it to write to you and my friends. Julie, Mummy and I have been sick, one after the other. It is lovely to see the willows getting all their leaves. On Tuesday wo went over to Bona Bay to see some friends, and Julie said we were going home. Can I call myself a fay?
