"I DID LOOK FUNNY FALLIN OFF MY HORSE” SAYS ‘ POULTRY MAID’S ADMIRER.”

Dear Wendy.—Here £ am again a? happy as can be. Hasn't the weather been wonderful? Now, “Cuddles Chum,” I will tell you the truth, I did look funny falling off my horse three times, but I expect you would have fallen off 10 times if you had ridden without a saddle. Never mind, you might have a spill one of these days at the top of the Saddle Hill, if you don’t have a care. Watch that big black horse with a lump on his nose. I will be on the look-out to see if I can see the dent. “Unlucky Love,’’ do you really know who I am, as I have an idea I see you quite often. Are your initials S.T. Now, “Mr. X Junior,” you will have to shake “Kiss Me Again” up. I hear you had a cow go over the cliff the other day. My word you will have to watch your cows or you will have a cow short when you get them in. Do you know what happened the other day? I went to help “Mr. X Junior” catch S.K. and the poor thing has his head to the ground all day. I think his heart is broken. I will have to lend you S.L. as her head is well in the air. “Nelson Eddy,” where have you gone to. did you go for a swim the other night? “Sailor's Sweetheart,” you will have to be careful or you will have a spill off that donkey of yours. Well, I will say good night to all the Itos and you, Wendy. Love.—From “POULTRY MAID'S ADMIRER,” Hunterville. Yes, dear, the weather has been perfect. Such lovely sunny days and then the refreshing showers. How wonderful the gardens now look Wendy. “IS THERE ROOM IOR ME TODAY?” AS OUR “YODELLING COWBOY NO. 2.” Dear Wendy,—ls there room for me ■ to-day? I will come in and see for ntyself. There, “Cuddle’s Chum,” you told someone about me coming up to see you on a cycle. Did I see “Mr. X Junior” set out with “Poultry Maid’s Admirer” and how did you enjoy your ride. It is a wonder “Poultry Maid’s Admirer” didn’t go after all the poultry? How did you like your spill, “Mr. X Junior?” “Kiss Me Again,” how is the shearing going at M ? “Unlucky Love,” how are you, it is time you had some hard work. “X Junior” did you and “Kiss Me Again” go to Hunterville one night? If so, I would like to know what you did with “Poultry Maid’s Admirer.” The two “Big Sisters,” you don’t want to leave your cycles near too often. How do you get on if you get a punetture. Push the cycle home I expect. You will have to get a car “Poultry Maid,” whatever has happened to you? I will get Sir Richard Elf after you. I will run off and go up to the swimming pool now. Love. —From “YODELLING COWBOY NO. 2,” Hunterville.

Why, of course, there is room for you in our midst, dear. What wonderful weather we have had. The refreshing rain was a blessing, wasn’t it? How lucky you are to have the baths available whenever you desire to go a-swimming.—Wendy. “I THINK I HAVE DISCOVERED YOUR IDENTITIES,” EXCLAIMS “KELLY THE GREAT.” Dear Wendy.—Here i am again after a few weeks absence. Well, Wendy, how are you these days, quite well 1 hope, and now for a lilt at my co-Ites. Come on, “Onga Lap,” its time you wrote again, did you see where the “Yodelling Cowboy” said you look good in that green hat. Where have you been all these days, “Onga Lap” as I have not seen you about lately. Now then, “Mr. X Junior” I think I know who you are. I have seen you in town with “Poultry Maid’s Admirer” and you also "Kiss Me Again.” I think I have discovered your identities. "Unlucky Love,” do you really know me? I don’t think you do for some time ago you asked me how did 1 enjoy the wedding and I did not go to a wedding unless it was in dreams. By the way, are your initials M.N. and is your hubby’s non de plume "Crumbs?” Three cheers for “Cuddle’s Chum’s” return, but, my dear, you must not let your troubles worry you or you will have all«your curls vanish with the constant worry and that would never do, would it? Well, Wendy, what has happened to the “Veiled Princess” and “Laughing Lizzie” also “Golden Glimmer.” They are very quiet. I wonder what they are thinking about. I think I saw “Laughing Lizzie” on her horse one Sunday. She was talking to "Our Little Boy,” and a girl-friend on a bicycle. Well, you two “Yodelling Cowboys” you have me puzzled. I have not the faintest idea who you might be. "Jacko the Second,” I think I have found you out. I know you well, if I am right, and I will be seeing you soon. Wendy, have you been in for a swim yet? I have had quite a few this season. I saw “Brainy Guy” and

“Broadway Scandies” in swimming on Thursday night. Why don’t you get your girl-friend J.R. to go in swimming on carnival nights? Well, “Fikiarero” if you know me why don’t you say something to me when you see me then? I might be able to say you do know me. And “Nelson Eddy” I think you are mean for you only wrote one letter and set all brains trying to find you out, and lots of questions have been asked and you have not answered them. Do be a pal and write next week. Well, dear Leader, I will say cheerio to you and all the Ites. My best wishes for a Merry Xmas and a Prosperous New Year. Love from “KELLY THL GREAT,” C.W.K., Hunterville. I am ever so pleased you have popped m to-day, dear. Oh yes, I have lived in the water, as one may say, during the close days. The weather, while not brilliant is just right for swimming, isn’t it? A Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year to you also, dear.—Wendy.
