NEWS OF SCHOOLDAYS Dear Peter Pan.—Well, we started school on Wednesday and it seemed very funny as there are only seventeen going to our school. We go to Te Hutewal School and every fine day we go to .a swimming pool close by. At the back of the school is a mountain named Mt. Kariorl; I have never been to the top but some of the school children have. We have a little black and white puppy who runs away with our shoes and we would like you to name him for us if you will. We have three other dogs named Scott, Fluke and Speed. .Now I must close, with love from Tootsie, (12), Te Mata. Peter thinks you must be having a very busy time now that you are back at school again Tootsie. How would you like to call your little puppy Tartar.—Peter Pan. HOLIDAY NEWS Dear Peter Pan.—Well, Peter, once again we are back at school to start a new year. My sister and I went away for a week’s holiday to Auckland and as we were near the beach we were able to swim every day. On Wednesday we went for a swim early in the morning and then later on we went on the Ferry to Devonport. 1 When we got there we went visiting and then went for a swim. On the way over we saw the World’s largest sailing ship v and it certainly was a big boat. On the ■ same night we went to the pictures. Thursday afternoon we went to see “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,” which was very good. As the tide went out in the afternoon we could not go swimming so while the tide was out we went round the rocks. On the Friday we went down on the beach and on Saturday night we again went to the pictures. As Saturday was our last day we made the best of it by going to the zoo. Aren’t the monkeys funny little things, ePter? On Sunday we left for home, arriving at 12.30 arter a very enjoyable time. Well Peter, I must close now.—Copper Top (11), Whatawhata. Peter is sure you enjoyed your visit to Auckland very much Copper Top; there are so many places to visit aren’t there? Yes, the monkeys are runny little things Peter thinks.—Peter Pan. BCHOOL AGAIN Dear Peter Pan.—Well here we are back at school again after the holidays. Isn’t It interesting to be In a new class with new books Peter. I like it very much. I went to my Auntie’s place in Hamilton for a few days and while I was there we went to the Matamata springs and I did enjoy myseir in the hot baths. Oh, Peter do you remember printing an address in the children’s page before Christmas to see who could have a pen-friend before Christmas, well I wrote to one and have just received the name or a girl in Ohio for a pen friend. I am writing to her to-night and I will let you know when I hear Trom her. We all went to a birthday party last night so I am feeling very tired to-day. It was my father’s birthday on February i, and a friend of ours was on the second, so we had the party at our friend’s place. We all enjoyed ourselves very much too. Well, Peter, I must close now with best wishes from Milk Maid (12), Whatawhata. It is lovely to be back at school again Isn’t It Milk Maid, especially arter such long weeks of holidays. Such a happy time you must have had at your Aunty's Peter thinks. The hot springs are very tiring aren’t they?—Peter Pan.
