’ Dear Wendy,—l have been really very interested in your pages for such a long time, and know such a lot of your Ites here that I feel quite out in the cold, and as winter is coming I want to come to a warmer atmosphere, so here I am wanting to join your Hut. I know “Babs” very well, and, Wendy, she is a demon (but rather a nice one). >She’s always laughing, isn’t she lucky? She has evidently a happy nature. 1 know her younger brother, too, he is a great sports boy. I know “Madame X” and “Aunty” and her family; in fact, I know most of the Ites here. “P.D.,” I have spoken to several times, but you don’t know me.” “P.D.,” that’s too bad, isn’t it, but never mind as you are a ’tec. you are supposed to be able to solve mysteries, •aren't you? But I hope you don’t find me out, and I know Wendy won’t give me away. It will be rather a joke io stay a mystery. I’ll try and beat you at it, “Minnie the Mouse.” Yes, I know you and you know me. Well, ! Wendy, I must stop now, you have I enough letters to attend to. Do you want a. secretary? I’m not too bad at it, if you do. Afay I have “Hut’s Black Sheep” for my pen-name, please, and I would like to offer “Big Brother’s Pal” my very sincere sympathy. Au revoir for now. Wendy.—Your new Ite, “HUT’S BLACK SHEEP,” Wendy town. Welcome to the Wendy Hut, my dear lam so pleased you are interested in cur pages. Oh, so you know some of our Ites, too. I wonder how long you will remain a mystery? Everyone will be ever so puzzled, I know. 1 wiL remember your offer when I need instance, dear. Oh, but I had forgotten, I heliex c I once promised our “Madcap” that opportunity. “Big Brother’s Pal” has our very deep sympa t h y. —W en dy. Dear Wendy,—Rap-a-tap-tap, please may I come in and join your merry band of letter-writers? I am new to this island, Wendy, and I must admit I feel very lonely at times. My hometown is Christchurch, and that is where I have left all my friends. Since I have been up here, Wendy, which is six weeks, I have had the great pleasure of reading the Wendy page. Really, it is most interesting at times. There are only two Ites I know, and they are “Don Zella” and “Rose Petal.” I think they both arc extremely nice girls. Wendy, please may I have the pen-name, “Marangai Queen” for my pen-name? I will close now, Wendy, lots of love to you all.— From “MARANGAI QUEEN’” Wanganui. Welcome to the Wendy Hut, my dear. I hope you will soon find some friends among members of our clan. I am glad you find our pages so interesting, that is splendid. You may have the pen-name you have asked for. For some time I will not be able to supply badges, dear. I am expecting a further consignment from the manufacturers.—Wendy.
