CROSSWORD PUZZLE No. 2 Everybody connected with Te Ao Hou must offer his profound apologies for our first Crossword Puzzle—the proofreader did not notice the misprints, the artist failed to black one square and put one numeral in the wrong position. It was all a terrible flop. This time the crossword has been really well checked. Readers can have a try at it with renewed confidence. Some courageous people did send in solutions, and of these E. M. Johnston, 1 Reihana Street, Orakei, Auckland, wins the prize. The other contestants did marvels in detecting errors, but made at least one mistake of their own. The prize will be again one guinea for the correct solution. If more than one solution is received, the winner will be determined by lot. solution to last puzzle
