THE "GOOD ENDEAVOUR" LEAGUE FOR YOUNG READERS ONLY.
What ho, what ho. ma hearties. Bless my top-booLs if it isn't nearly summer already. The Pohntukawas on my island are already nearly bursting their buds and every tlay I take a sunny walk with my two pets. Butinsky is growing much quieter these days, either he's getting old. or getting more sense. He is really quite docile and doesn't get up to half the tricks he used to. This morning you should have seen the. reflections in Sulphur Bay. The water was like glass and the yellow cliff's were reflected like towering orange castles. From the big rock on which wc stood we watched two large crayfish scuttling down in the pools after crabs. L flung a large rock into the water and the pair of them went off backwards like a couple of darts. They are pretty swift in spite of their ugliness—but don't they go well with lettuce salad. Now I must get on with the page.
