TO CORRESPONDENTS
L.C.T. (Ettrick): We have a failing for puns, as you shall see. P. J. Quayle (Motueka): We like Motueka, but would you mind this week marking your own homework, as space. is cramped? You have high marks, Must let the cyclist cycle for a little while longer. Sometime we'll be over to munch a mellow Motueka apple. R.W.C.: One of these days we'll see in the paper: "A marriage has been arranged . . . x, daughter of y, to a, son of b," and we'll know that fate has at last overtaken you. Thanks be you have not yet decided to use trigonometry or the diff. cal. All readers grateful for your remembering the definition of the curve taken by the flange of a moving wheel: "curtate cycloid." We're having a date with the Arabs next week. All Readers: It was, as they say in such awkward moments, "inadvertently stated," in a recent issue, that the problem of the ten contrary. sheep could be solved by planning each move to keep the sheep head to tail. This should have read: "to keep the sheep heads to heads and tails to tails." L. P. Lee (Auckland): One hundred per cent.
