LETTERS TO THE EDITOR APPRECIATION Sir, I had to write to tell you how I love Te Ao Hou with all my heart. I have been receiving it for about three years through our local book store. I love collecting the names of the great people who have passed away and the wonderful knowledge I have received has given me a wonderful uplift in life. I loved the talk given by Rowley Habib very much. My children were thrilled when I read them the story of Wini Weka's joke. I am so grateful for this wonderful magazine. The story of Puhiwahine, Maori Poetess, is just wonderful. I am looking forward to learning about her whakapapa in the next issues. I never was interested in my own race. I was like the character in Rowley Habib's talk in No. 35. Now I am a Christian. I help to teach children, most of them Polynesian, all about the goodness of God, life and the beauty of the earth. I am proud of being a Maori and I shall always try to be worthy of belonging to one of the greatest races of people upon the earth. I have got so interested in the whakapapa of my people that the Te Ao Hou just thrills me to the core. I thank you very much for the wonderful Te Ao Hou and for what it has done for me. Yours most sincerely. Mrs Olive Ormsby, Panmure.
