SANDY'S CORNER
IN WOOLLEN LANGUAGE Farmer, discussing his better half with friends: "She’s a grand wife, worth her weight in greasy cross: bred.’’ THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK. Cheerfulness: What sunshine is to Howers, smiles are to humanity. They are but trifles, to be sure but, scattered along life’s pathway, the good they do is inconceivable.— Addison. THE BATTLE OF THE NORTH. 1 he battle of tile North is about to begin in North Korea. North Auckland might be able to get a few tips in readiness for another "battle of the North’’ wo know of that will get off to a good start in the next Rugby seacon. It could be a battle without parallel! A FRIDAY’S CRUISE. As you navigate the Avenue amid a fleet of prams, And veer to lee or starboard to miss the traffic .jams. Just keep a smart lookout and your engines running slow. Lest you foul the many hawsers of the youngsters held in tow. Take a reef upon your temper if one should cross your bow, Don't act like any lubber and raise an awful row. But din your flag in honour of the matrons gay and staid. That navigate the small craft of th, babies on parade! Yours "SHELLBACK.
