Head your entries “Christmas Presents,” and send them in by November 15. DECEMBER It would be interesting to hear how important a part coincidences play in people’s lives. One of the commonest forms of coincidence is to receive an unexpected message or a visit from a person of whom you have been thinking. Another quite frequent occurrence is when mention has been made of some particular subject in the course of conversation, and the first book or newspaper you happen to pick up afterwards contains a reference to that very topic. But it is of the more unusual experiences I want you to writeinstances that indeed prove the truth of the old saying, “Truth is stranger than fiction.” “STRANGE COINCIDENCES.” ’ Entries close on December 15. First prize 10/-, second prize 5/-. “MARY,” “Journal ,of Agriculture,” Box 3004, Wellington.
