NEW ZEALAND CALLING.
Sir,-Referring to the appropriateness or otherwise, of Aunt Daisy’s being included on just one of the Pacific programmes, your correspondent has overlooked the fact that we have considerable numbers of Waafs over there, too, and that the 2% minutes’ broadcast
allotted to Aunt Daisy was addressed primarily to them. The alleged "recipe" given was the old joke on "How to Preserve a Husband," which, though it may miss being humorous, can hardly be called sentimental. Here it is: + Be careful in your selection. Do not choose too young. When once selected, give your entire thoughts to preparation for domestic use. Some insist on keeping them in a pickle, others are constantly getting them into hot water. This may make them sour, hard and sometimes bitter. Even poor varieties may te made sweet, tender and good by garnishing them with patience, well sweetened with love and seasoned with kisses. Wrap them in a mantle of charity. Keep warm with a steady fire of domestic devotion, and serve with neachee and cream. Thus vrevared. thev will
keep for years. 7
