The Cambria Daily Leader

Children's Corner. BY UNCLE JOHN I I Judging from some of the postcards that have reached me for the competition, I must say I think a few of you are dodg- ing the question a bit. It is not the story of the worm and the early bird that was asked for, but your opinion as to whether the worm was an early one or a late one. Had that worm been out all night and not reached home beforo the bird caught it, or was the worm an early one which had started out earlier than tho bird? Try again. You will have time. Try the answer in prose or in verse-it does not matter which. While you are thinking about it, let us have a look at our letter basket. It cer- tainly contains a variety of little letters and notes. 1, Villievs-place, Jersey-road, 1km v- maen, near Swansea. Dear Uncle John,— It gives me great pleasure of writing you this letter. It is the first time for me to try and help your Corner to become larger, and also hoping that you will accept me as one of your nieces. I am sending a few riddles and a joke. What is the.longest word in the English dictionary :Smile.s. When does Christmas come after Box- ing Dayr—In the dictionary. Why is an infant like a diamond?— Because it is a dear little thing. DID NOT WANT A WIFE. The Tramp: Please will you gimme er few pennies ier me starving wife? Old. Baciieior: Not me. In the lirst }llaoo I haven't got any peQnies; in the second plaoo i have no earthly u-se i-or a btarving wife; and in the third place I don't want a wife anyway. -Annie Morris (age 12211). 3, Greyhound-row, Felinfoel, near Llan. el^y- i>ear unCle John,—This is the lirst tiine tor me to write to you.

The child was very pleased, and thought; much of his father's cleverness. Shortly afterwards the child took his father's new hat suddenly, and threw it out through the window.
