WHERE TO GET Te Ao Hou

We occasionally hear of people who find it hard to get Te Ao Hou. If you are one of those, please write to the Editor (P.O. Box 2390, Wellington) and let us know.

Te Ao Hou is available from all newsagents, and subscriptions are taken by all offices of the Department of Maori Affairs and by the Editor.

Until this year the public could also subscribe at the Post Office. This arrangement proved impractical, but it is of course still possible to buy a postal note at your nearest Post Office (7/6 for an annual subscription and £1 for 3 years) and send this to the Editor.

Three drawings of children of Te Whaiti (Urewera) have been reproduced in this issue (Pages 12, 23 and 47). The artist is Mrs Joan Smith who exhibited a collection of paintings she did at Te Whaiti at the Auckland Art Gallery early this year.

Situations Vacant. Te Ao Hou needs writers and artists. Send us your stories and report anything of interest that happens. We like to hear from you. We are also very anxious to receive drawings. One of the main purposes of this magazine is to encourage Maori talent.

Is Your Subscription Due? If it is, you will find a leaflet enclosed with this issue. This leaflet is placed in all copies for subscribers whose subscriptions are expiring.
