AN ALPHABET PUZZLE

ITere is an absorbing puzzle for the bigger Radio children. It requires quite a lot of thinking, so just sit down quietly one wet day when you are badly wanting something to do and try to make a perfect sentence ont of the twenty-six letters of the alphabet. It is impossible to use each letter only once; there ate not enough vowels, but try to form a sentence with the fewest possible extra letters. Hete is an example for you; "Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs,’? This sentence has six extra letters-one e, two i’s, two o’s, and one u. Can you improve on it, and use less repeated letters? Send me your efforts. It will be interesting to see who can make the best complete sentence,
