CROSSWORD PUZZLE
No. 13
Twelve solutions were received to puzzle number 12, but unfortunately only three of these entirely agreed with the key solution. The prize goes again to a member of the younger generation, namely Master Perenu Callaghan, St Stephens School, Auckland, chosen by lot out of the three correct solutions. A guinea prize is again offered for one correct solution to puzzle number 13. If more than one correct solution is received the winner will be determined by lot. Send to Te Ao Hou by February 15, P.O. Box 2390, Wellington.
