BREAKING-UP PARTIES.

Dear Peter Pan.—Thank you very much Tor putting my name on the Honours Board, Peter. Hasn’t it been terribly cold lately? Winter has been approaching very quickly, don’t you think, Peter? Do you like watching the football matches, Peter? I think It is very thrilling. The rootball season opened in Cambridge on Saturday. Daddy took us to watch the play. There are not many leaves on the deciduous trees now, are there, Peter? Our lawns are strewn with leaves, hut around by the hedge there is a terrible scene. The once-beautlful dahlias are now black, being cut with the severe frost on Friday morning. Last week was a great week for school children, wasn’t it, Peter Pan? The breaking-up parties sound so Jolly. AVe went to Cambridge on Thursday and saw many happy faces peeping out from curious representations, parading the streets on their way to the Town Hall. My flower garden has one or two antirrhinums open, but otherwise It is bare. There Is still a number of lovely birds about, but I expect they will soon disappear. My kitten lias got his winter coat, but he still wants to sleep in the hot-water cupboard. Please Peter, will you tell me ir you have to get another 2 0 points after you have got your to stars, to gain your Honours Book? Well, it is getting on towards lunch, so I will say good-bye Tor this week.—Toss Up (14) Karapiro. Such a welcome letter after a long silence, Toss Up. Yes, winter is really here, Isn’t It, and the gardens are very (lull now. Football matches are very exciting aren’t they? Kitty must like the warmth, musn’t he. Yes, you must get another 20 points.—Peter Pan.
