A CHRISTMAS DELIGHT
"It will perhaps even make me forget about the weather, which did not correspond to what I had expected from your famous beautii'uj New Zealand summer," writes a tourist who has indicated to the Ppst Office his delight at the technical .triumph which enabled him to brightenVa dull Christmas Day at Botorua by talking to his family at Prankfurt-on-Maine, Germany. "Nothing could have given me greater delight," he added, "than to hear quite clearly the diiferent voiees of all the members of my family, proving that they were in the best of health, and enjoying their holiday. Such glorious achievements of technique for me — being not teehni'cally trained — will probably belong always to the realm of wonders. I heard this call coming round the whole earth as clearly as a short-distance connection. In fact 1 know of many I would. have liked to be as good."
