The Children's Corner

Dear Boys and Girls,-Here is another picture for you to paint this week, and then next week we will see our No. 1 animal of the Wireless Zoo-the "Howler."" Won’t that be exciting? I have an idea he is going to be a beauty, too! Have you all got your "Smilers" ready? Remember they have to be in by August 17. For our third animal I think we will have a "Krytik." He isa "yarly‘snarly" creature who sits around with his ears well back, showing all, his teeth. No matter what you give him, he always wants something else. Even in his brightest moments he is rather "sniffy,’"? and he has never once been known to show the least bit of gratitude to people who do their level best to please him. See what you ean make of him and send in your drawings and verses with your letter writing competition by Aug. 24. The picture for pdinting is of Kink and his Squizard meeting a Sandman over the hill.- Kink says- | "My Squizard can turn himself head-over-tails, And dance on the tips of his toes; But ali I can do is to waggle my ears And balance a ball on my nose." He’s got the right kind of ears to waggle, hasn’t he? , I am so glad to know that you are all interested in our corner. AS one little girl remarks-" it helps to pass away a rainy evening."" Another boy says he is "tickled to death" with the idea of drawing a Wireless Zoo! .I am looking for great things from him! . Oh! I almost forgot to tell you to be sure and use water colours for ‘ ‘your paintings (if you have them). You can make a far nicer picture with them than with coloured chalks.-Love till next time, Ariel,
