Cask Prizes for What You Think! VISITORS from overseas marvel always at » the manner in which New Zealand women run their homes—how they attend to the needs of their families, do their own housework and cooking, fulfill their social engagements, and while doing so always manage to be cheerful, and at the beck and call of the family. But there is the other side of the picture: " Do New Zealand women keep up appearances at considerable cost to themselves?" For it is an effort, this keeping up appearances, and the strain must tell, sooner or later. Do you think their health suffers to any great extent they shorten their life by doing so much all the time? Let me know your ideas before the 15th March—it is original ideas I want, so don't worry if you can't write too well. Two prizes will be awarded: First 10/-, and second 5/-. Out with your pens and paper, and send your opinions to me: 0T Closing date: 15th March, 1941. C/o. "Journal of Agriculture," P.O. Box 3004, WELLINGTON.
