Answer. to. Correspondents

answer to correspondents

J. K. MacD—f: Why not have it shingled?

M-r-l C—st-n: It is regretted that your article entitled "How to be the College Vamp" arrived too late for publication.

J. O. J. M—f—y: We agree that the hat suits you—but why not Oxford trousers?

H-w—d P—l: We are sorry you have been finding the mosquitoes so troublesome. Have you tried Q-Tol ?

T-d-y -l—s-on: Yes, we agree that in the next procession you should try Gossards.

E—e H-lm-s: Yes, it is much better exercise to walk seventy miles that seven.

I—n H—rr—g: We do not know where the flies go in the winter time, but we have seen a blowfly on Kelburn Parade; perhaps it can tell you.

H. B. K.—k: "Locked in a Library, or the Incarceration of Kirk" is too far-fetched. What has a Kirk to do with a library? The "thrilling" race between Professor of Tramping and the Kelburn car, ending with the abduction of the lady librarian, is the crudest kind of movie stuff.

A. M. L-s—t: We suggest that the S.P.C.A. (perhaps, too, the Plunket Society) had something to do with the Journal of Science and Technology refusing your article on "The Feeding and Care of Agamemnon."

S. B—e: We do not see your point. "The fierce white light" might very well come from motor headlights. "That beats about a throne"—did you not refer to her as "queen of my heart?" Yes, by all means scarify Papa.
