DIPLOMATIC.
A little girl in Napier was playing with her toys on the parlour floor while an older sister was drumming with much persistency on the piano. "Play louder, Eloria," spoke up the child. * The girl at the keys felt flattered, and, with an elated smile, asked: "So you like to hear mc play, do you, darling?" "No, I don't," came the unexpected and empnatfic reply. "I wanted you to play louder so papa would tell you to stop."
