“‘KELLY THE GREAT’ GAVE ME A REAL SURPRISE” SAYS 'CUDDLE’S CHUM.”

Dear Wcmiy, Really, Wendy, 1 doubt if you can px-.510,y allow me back to Ihe Land of Make-Believe again aflei suci; a long absence, but still 1 hope there is one small corner that 1 may have? “Keiiy the Great' I gave me a real surprise v. hen I saw | her letter in the Hut page, and the ; news of ‘’Shepherd's Lricic” was a j very great surprise to me. 1 really I thought the Old Wadi hau taken hen 'oft, but she is more lortunate than •that, isn’t she, Wendy? Well, "Stella,” : what has happened to you lately? 1 , saw you or. Coronation day, but •navenc seen your letter in the Hut •page lor age... Is your ugh. han;. ; paralysed, or is it only stiff? Wasn’t ' Wanganui gay on Coronation Da. . : Wency? I suppose you were there .‘and had a very enjo.xaule time? la ! the way, "Mother of Four,” 1 was: I standing very close to you at the Coronation . nwice, but 1 don't bcliev • you recognised me. “Hairy Goat” was there, too, was he not? Weil, Wendy, as 1 have played truant for so long 1 must no. write much, so cheerio. My love to all the Ito.?. -From "CUDDLE’S CHUM,” Hunterville. Why, dear, you arc welcome a thousand times over. I had begun to i despair of ever hearing from you • again. I imagined that Old Witch ; must surely have you locked away in j her care. I wish our "Stella” would i pop in more frequently for we do miss her. The city was gay indeed for | Coronation. Do pop in again soon.' j won't you?—Wendy. I I “JUST ‘LAUGHING LIZZIE!”’ EXi CLAIMS OIK MERRY ITE AS SHE I’OPS IN ON SURPRISE CALL. j Dear Wendy,—Now, I hope you've- • got a glass of water or smelling salts i ' ready, because you’ll need them when , | you see who this is. Just "Laughing ; j Lizzie” after a whole year’s absence! .Although 1 haven't written I’ve still j read the page every Saturday. I see | where the "Yellow Rose of Texas" is ■ wondering where I am. Well, I "Y.R.0.T.,” I’m still in the same place i being as big a nuisance as ever, so j I they tell me. My "gee-gee” is still • rather fresh, "Mother of Four,” but is • fast, learning that it must do as I say. ■ Did you enjoy yourself at the Coro-' I nation "Our Little Boy”? 1 see you’re ' j-'till collecting hats. You, too, "Hine-1 i moa" and "Poultry Maid." By the | i way, "Poultry Maid," that young man : i of yours possesses a very nice voice.l J His singing of "Give Me My Boots and i I Saddle" was very enjoyable. And you, ■ i "Redhead," how's the arm? Much im-' I proved, I hope. Wendy, I think we’ll 1 have to punish our Weather Clerk ■ very severely for giving us such awful [ weather. If it rains much more we'iil just about need to grow web feet.' Well, Wendy, I mus. go and chop! some wood, so au revoir. With best I wishes.—From "LAUGHING LIZZIE, j C.W.K., Hunterville. I My goodness, but more surprises I like this, dear ,and I am afraid I will I suffer a nervous breakdown. How j pleased I am to have your cheery j letter and know you are well. Our Weather Clerk does appear to be somewhat remiss with the weather of late. However, he has sent we city dwellers a nice day or two for which we have been very grateful. I hope some brilliant surprise finds its way lo Hunterville, too, soon.—Wendy. i
