TO CORRESPONDENTS
J. Thane (Island Bay): See above. Heard that one before, but it will bear repetition, later. L.C.T.: Shall use the rest of your material as space dictates. Maxixe: Have already had the Achilles type of problem, but thanks. G.M.H.: You are in the upper ten, All readers: A Reminder.-We have no answers yet to Horses, or Angles (February 2). We can say that the man with 21 horses put one each in five stables and sixteen in the fifth, and that last, you must admit, was a very odd number of horses to put in a stable! But the angles of the ladders are still not surveyed. Also required, proper answers to J, C. Lesnie’s Shuntings and G.M.H’s Every Mod. Con. (February 16). R.G. (Waihi); Glad to hear from you again. See next issue. H.D. Mullon (New Plymouth): By next week, we might come out of the daze. W.H.P.: Sorry, still cramped. G. Tisbury (Invercargill): Your letter arrived after most of this page was in print. With pride in Invercargill, we acknowledge your answer of 20 feet to the ladders-angles problems, and the first correct solution of the shuntinz problem, Shall print this next issue. All your other answers were almost all in the best tradition, H. S. Scott (Onehunga); Yes, the big Indian was the little Indian’s mother. Still waiting for an answer to the mains problem. Your letter pleased us mightily, notwithstanding the mud in the eye. A clod to reciprocate. ... J. Geddes (Temuka): The blush remained under control. You scored at least 9914 per cent. You say the cyclist: travelled 50 miles. Must we forsake Sylvia? S.G.E. (Glenavy): No schoolboys have written. The radius of a circle equals the circumference ‘divided by pi. In each case the circumference is increased by the same length, so the radius in each case is similarly increased, P.J.Q. was entitled to make any statements he wished, to set out his problem, so long as they did not lead the working astray, However, for the helping hand, our gratitude. Wiri Tieki (Hamilton): Errors are easy to find; answers more difficult. That means you. . H.B. (Homeless): Finding the answers in succeeding issues is part of the fun. So far, no diploma, but keep on, Puzzles later. *S¢2 ‘
