N.Z. Shortwave Club

From the Secretary’s Pen if AM still struggling with a pile of letters, and in addition there’s. QSL cards, badges, and membership. certificates to be got away. The country members will soon see we haven’t forgotten them. Here’s a letter from Feilding saying it might be possible to get nine or ten members there, and asking if a.branch could be formed. Certainly!. You. can have a representative and we can keep in touch with him, att Now, I have some bad news concerning the QSL" ecards, which we estimated would be 2/6 per 100. We found that it was necessary to use a better quality ecard in two colours, which makes the nearest. we can do them at 8/- per 100 without postage. We feel sure that members do not want a cheap card, and the samples sent in look-a really good article. We trust members will appreciate ‘that we have cut the cost as fine as we could without cutting: quality. To tae Hello, VK8MH, Melbourne, Hello 3ZC Christchurch; thanks for your good wishes. Yes, we will be pleased to report. _ Our badges are now available, but they only be supplied to bona-fide members.

I have a letter which gives me .advice about another short-wave club, -I won’t repeat it, but I will say again that this is a New Zealand club which ‘is. run on the suggestions of-its members. : Conditions are different out here. ~ I am not sure, but I believe a mascot will soon appear in the shape of an owl paperweight. I heard one of the Nightowl: Olub members murmur something about it. Already a globe of the world graces’ the secretarial desk. Alongside it is the poriginal" horn speaker which Noah used or j I shall be only too pleased to hear from anyone interested in short-wave. Address letters, A. B. McDonagh, Secretary N.Z.
