WHAT DAY WAS IT
This ruust liave given you all a lo't of' tiiought. Now here was the question:' "When the daj\. after tomorrow yesterday., to-day Avill be as l'ar from Sunday as to-day was from 'Sunday Avhen tlie\day before yesterday -was to-morrow'^'"
Well now. Here ,is the answer— Sundaj-. This is how it. is worked out. When the day after to-morrow (Tuesday) is yesterday, v (Wednesday) will be as far from Sundaj" when the daj* before j'esterday (Friday) was to-morrow! From Thursday to Sundaj" is.- three daj*s as is also from Sunday to Wednesday. (P.S. This is a copicd competition, and"'if you can follow it I take mj" hat off to j-ou—b'ut it does sort of sound right, don't you think. P.T.W.) • Well I onlj- had two answers and jthey were both incorrect. However as I'm not sure that even such a brilliant brain as mj" own can work it. out I am giving both a free picture ticket for guessing Tuesdaj*. So call and collect.
